Andrew Kmetz was named coach of basketball. He will receive $100 for his services, payable November 26.

ALLEGES IT HAS RECORD OF ACHIEVEMENT Many Roads Are Fixed; Little Ferry Gets Veterans Housing EXPENSES ARE CUT Charges that the Republican administration was a do -nothing administration were refuted by Frank Kovarik, campaign manager, who spoke at the opening of Little Ferry Regular Republican Club headquarters at 135 Liberty Street Thursday. "Joseph P. Tracey, Democratic campaign manager and political mouthpiece of Mayor Srholez, has charged us with a do-nothing term. This is the same Mr. Tracey who in 1946 attempted to disqualify one of our local ex-servicemen, Ernest W.

Fous, who sought a place on the school board. Mr. Fous, a life-long resident of our Borough, had to go to the Supreme Court to have his name placed on the ballot. "In reply to his biased Kovarik continued, "we can point out numerous improvements. Last ye.r all the Borough received in the way of road improvements were engineer's bills.

This year many roads are being resurfaced. These streets are those most neglected by the past administration. Through the persistent efforts of the Republican administration, led by Councilman Kral, the traffic light at Grand Street and Route 6 is about to be installed. All the Democrats and Mayor Srholez ever did about this dangerous crossing was to promise a election time. "Willow Lake, also neglected by the Democrats, is about to be fenced in on the Main Street side, and efforts will be made to have it filled.

Last year Frank Kurz and George Merwede, Democratic Council candidates, were appointed by Srholez to the veterans' committee. Their accomplishments were nil while your Republican administration has erected the veteran homes now almost ready. "The Republicans this year have sold more Borough -owned property at higher figures than any other previous administration. Our sewer disposal plant sadly neglected in the past by the Srholez administration, has been put into first class working order. "Borough operating expenses have been decreased by $6,400, and had not the school budget requirements been increased the tax rate would have been lowered.

Mr. Tracey doesn't dare call your attention that it is the school Board requirements that have raised your taxes because the school Board is Srholez-controlled. Since Mr. Tracey has accused us of a do-nothing attitude, I challenge him to a public debate on this question. Democrats Promise Service At Low Cost of A platform pledging a maximum of service at a minimum of cost was outlined Joseph P.

Tracey, Democratic campaign manager, at a meeting of Little Ferry Regular Democratic Organization campaign committee last night at 228 Main Street. In asking for support for Mayor 10 Joseph Srholez Jr. and his Council running mates, George H. Merwede, Frank Kurz, and Edward O'Connor, Tracey said they are pledged also to end the type of rule for which the Republicans have been responsible during the past year. "They are pledged to be guided by the will of the people and for the good of the people in their actions.

and not by political revenge or political greed," Tracey said. 'They promise to see that the police, fire, sewer, and other services are operated to maximum efficiency, that there be no wasted effort by these groups. "They promise to make necessary in as needed in age and streets. "They promise to maintain the "The Wisdom of Solomon" Quality Shirts At A Budget Price Over 2,000 years ago my illustrious namesake said "The simple believeth every word: but the prudent man looketh well to his And with today's prices being what they are I'm not going to ask you to believe its possible to produce a quality shirt at 2.95. I'm only going to ask you to be prudent and come in and see these shirts for yourself.

They're Sanforized Oxford cloth in single-tone chalk stripes and dual-tone pin stripes. They have slotted collars with a modified spread. They're fullOxford cut and finely railored. So when you come in, "looketh well" and then I know Shirts you'll want several at the thrifty price 2.95 of 2.95. San Solomon.
