Charles Seaman, park superin Ave. was completed by July 23. Indications are that, a second coat will not be needed for several years, but, Hart said, the street will have to be under observation for two weeks to determine how it will last under traffic. Work has been started on the bulkhead at Lawrence Village Park, Hart reported, and the station plaza has been rcscrviccd and is now in good shape.

Tools have been secured for cleaning of the sewers and a dean-up campaign is scheduled for October. Mayor Allen Thorpe, who presided oscr the meeting, raised an objection to the sounding of the noon siren simultaneously with civlian protection air raid warning signals on Saturdays. It has been a practice to sound all sirens at once every Saturday noon as a test, but residents of the village have complained that the noise is unnecessarily shill and tendent, reported a marked increase in the number of golfers at the paik during the week, and a Urge crowd in the clubhouse on weekends. To cope witli the week-end crowds, the dub restaurant already is dosed on Monday and Tuesday nights. Seaman suggested that Wednesday be another day off for the restaurant so that ration points might be saved for weekend patrons.

Residents of the village are not encouraged to hold parties or affairs in the clubhouse, lie said.
