The Greenwich move for support of Senator Mariani was taken Monday night what is viewed in party quarters as a move to get a bandwagon rolling for Senator Mariani.

Mr. Gengras said he doesn't think the Greenwich move "will have great bandwagon effects." Waiting for Pinney Republicans presently are wait- Ing for State Chairman A. Searle Pinney fo announce a consensus on a candidate for governor that he has been seeking for several Tl months. Ei The Greenwich group urged other towns to follow its lead so that the "consensus" being sought by state leaders "might be meaningful." Gengras. asked for comment, said that it would be interesting to see how many towns would follow suit.

He said that if a "bandwagon vas set in motion he would be "all for it."

Gengras stressed that his own travels around the state he was "seeking no endorsements and asking for no support." He said he would accept the nomination only if his selection represented a "true consensus in the party.

Gengras said he had no in tention of fighting for the nom: nation because if there was genuine consensus this would no be necessary for anyone. Mariani said he thought the endorsement by the Greenwich: group was "a tremendous thing for me." He said he was happy to get: "this support from the people st the other end of the state." Mariani Seeks Unity But he also stressed the need tor unity and harmony. Gengras said the Greenwich Btatement "doesn't affect what have been doing." He said it was widely known within the Republican party that Mariani had the support of the Greenwich Republicans. He said it was a "last attempt by the Greenwich group "to on notice that they're still for Mariani." "I don't feel that this changes anything," he said.

THA View The THA statement today says he houses are needed and the authority spent two years ng for a site that would meet! he requirements of the state vhich is providing the $550,000 with which the homes will built. The TCA says the authority has been secretive and charges he authority has adopted a posi- ion that "The irresponsible tax- ayers have no right to question is. Or know what we are doing." Both sides have sent out circulars to the voters setting forth side of the issue and both sides have urged interested citizens to appear tonight and regis- their views on the matter. The Housing Authority says if the proposed location is not given approval "it could mean the end of our hopes of providing lower- cost homes for our elderly peo- "We will provide homes for 50 family units.

"Homes such as these for ou elderly people have proven sue cessful in other parts of our state.

Where they have been built, they are filled to capacity. In all cases, there are waiting lists. If this location is not given approval, it could mean the end of our hopes of providing lower-cost lomes for our elderly people." Says Information Erroneous The Trumbull Citizens associa- ion charged that the Housing authority has issued "erroneous or deliberately misleading facts" their handling of the project. In a letter mailed to Joseph P. Adzima, chairman of the author- ty, Kenneth H.

Cohrs, president of the TCA, said in part, "During PZC meeting, the THA was asked specifically if a site had been chosen for the low rental jroject. The answer was no. Twenty minutes later, in executive session, the authority revealed the selection of the Madison avenue location. Either the no answer was erroneous or it was deliberately contrived to mislead the citizens present. Burial will be in Lakeview ceme tery.

13-Point Statement "On Feb. 28. a citizen's meeting, the THA was asked to produce plans for the project Members stated no plans hai been prepared.
