Model Open Daily 12-6 346-3518 Ledyard Democrat Candidates Hit GOP Platform Statement LEDYARD (Special) have charged that present Republican selectmen have failed to provide the fiscal responsibility talked about in the GOP platform and are guilty of "fiscal irresponsibility" instead. Democratic first selectman candidate Thomas Vivirito and selectman candidate Joseph Capon cite the "Burton proerty blunder" and pay increases for the town clerk to support thdir charges.

In a press release Vivirito and Capon ask "if we are naive, as First Selectman J. Alfred Clark has charged, what are the Republican selectmen after the Burton property blunder?" They say Clark's failure to explore the possibility of obtaining federal "open space-funding" to help reduce Ledyard's cost for that purchase was "a blatant failure to leadership" and "fiscal On the subject of salary increases for the town clerk, Vivirito and Capon say the GOP selectmen and the GO nated Finance Board should have extracted certain promises of improved performance before recommending a pay raise. That office has been a chronic source of inconvenience and delay, yet the GOP selectmen and the Board of Finance saw fit to increase the clerks salary without obtaining any promise or guarantee that conditions would be improved," they charge. The Democrats say this year's auditor's report and "individuals who have to deal with" the town clerk indicate situations in that office "have not improved." Backs Dragging Plain deal first selectman candidate William Moss has proposed that the town transform a drag racing problem along Sandy Hollow Road into a constructive recreational activity. Dragging along the straight flat road that crosses the Groton reservoir is an almost nightly event and the road is covered with skid marks, yet, according to Moss, First Selectman contends nothing can be done about it.

Moss proposed this week that the town consider drag racing events over that stretch of road at specified times. This would give the young men who are interested in dragging an outlet for it, but provide supervision and control to prevent accidents and ries, Moss said. Moss also criticized Clark for failing to do anything to help resolve the near duplicaton of Cromwell Zoners Hear Report On Proposed Complex CROMWELL (Special) James Murray of the Gampel Realty Co. appeared before Planning and Zoning commission and gave a progress report on proposed apartment complex Tuesday.

some town road names, something Moss feels could cause serious problems. Moss' concern for similarity in road names stems from his duties with the Ledyard Ambulance Service Inc. Moss said when people report an emergency they are usually excited and often do not give full details about the location of the emergency. In such situations, simisounding street names could cause, delay confusion in the and arrival of unneces- the emergency vehicle at the scene, he said. Moss said when he was last president he wrote several letters to selectmen requesting action on this problem, but received no reply.

Stonington John Davis New Head Of Board The only speaker supporting Morris was Francis Fasullo of Crescent Beach. In his presentation, Zaehringer said that "time is of the essence. Every month of delay will drive the building cost up an estimated $5,000 a month." Support for the building came from both Democrats and Republicans present. Former GOP State Rep. Mary Bishop made a plea for approval as quickly as possible, noting the need and the additional cost of delay.

According to Zaehringer, who is town treasurer, the estimated building cost is. $600,000 which would amount to "less than a one mill increase" in the tax rate. to another question, Zaehringer predicted the buildin gwould be adequate for at least 20 years. If the selectmen vice approval, the building will be put out to bid and the bid en placed before a town meeting for approval.
