The Suggestion Box 

With this issue, the first 

in 1970, The Southington 

NEWS launches a new 

editorial service - The 

Suggestion Box. 

This service is intended 

as a special service to 

readers and hopefully to 

the town as a whole. 

Anyone who has any 

suggestions to improve 

safety, operations of , 

government or ap- ~ 

pearance in Southington - L 

or just comments in 

general - is invited to send them to The 

Suggestion Box, C-O The Southington NEWS, 

P .O. Box 71, Southington, Conn. 06489. 

Communications to The Suggeston Box will be 

published weekly on this page. Those received 

through the Friday preceding publication date will 

be used that week - those received after Friday 

will be held for publication in the following week's 

paper. 

Items received this week included the following: 

"It's time to start those needed Charter 

revisions. The most obvious one of all is - a 

minimum of two candidates for every vacancy. The 

present policy of having four candidates for three 

vacancies on the Board of Education and the Town 

Council is ridiculous. It is impossible to clear out 

the incumbents, if that is the desire of the voters, 

under the present system. 

"Also, the number of signatures of qualified 

voters needed on a petition by a person to get his or 

her name on the ballot to run independently for an 

office should be published in The NEWS weekly. 

Southington IS growing rapidly and many party 

primaries will be held. If you want your family to 

have a voice in all these functions then the wife 

should be affiliated with a different party than her 

husband." 

, 

"Why doesn't Southington take a tip from neIghboring 

Meriden? Traffic signals in the downtown 

area there go on 'blinker' during the early morning 

hours - after 2 a.m., anyway. There is so llWe 

traffic at that time of day that this seems to make a 

lot of sense. 

when the WellthlU" 

and stopping for a red 

to get stuck or skid 

; _ 

"My husband and I are new in Southington. We 

were surprised to find that what we thought was a 

qulet section is a race track for cars and motorcycles. 

I suppose nothing will , be done unW 

something happens." 

"Instead of bringing everyone in at the same 

time, why can't people due to appear in Circuit 

Court be given a scheduled appearance time during 

the day. rather than having to wait around for a 

long time? Also, why are cases involving lawyers 

called up flrBt? Other people have to lose time from 

work while they are waiting around." 

"Now that all ilie par~ lots have been com· 

pleted downtown, I suggest they allow parking on 

one side of Center St. only, to relieve congestion 

during rush hours and when it snows. The same 

suggestion applles to West Main St. through 

Plantsville Center." 

"The State did a great job of plowing and 

clearing the main traffic arteries ~ough town, 

such as Route 10. Town streets like Marion Ave., 

Berlin Ave. and West Center St., which connect 

these main arteries, should receive the same kind 

of treatment \?y the town." 

Your Fair Share 

Once again, the annual fund campaign of the 

Southington Community Chest is falling short of its 

goal. 

Fund Director Gerald Gingras reported in last 

week's NEWS that the drive stands at approximately 

$15,000 short of its quota of $95,334. 

Mr. Gingras urges all those who have not sent in 

their contributions to do so immediately, or as soon 

as oo.c;sible. We join with him in this appeal. 

These are the agencies which benefit from the 

Southington Community Chest: 

Public. Health Assn., YMCA, Bradley Memorial 

Hospital, Salvation Army, Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts, 

Mertden -cbIld Guidance Clinic, USO, Southington 

Community Chest Inc. (administration), 

Southington Assn. for Retarded Children, 

Southington NEWS for servicemen, Family Service 

Assn., Inc .. National Assn. of Hearing and Speech 

Agencies, American Social Health Assn., Blinded 

Vcterans' Assn., :.JationaJ Recreational Assn., 

Travelers Aid Society, United Seamans Service, 

Council on Social Work Education, International 

Social Service and United Community Funds and 

Councils of America. 

If you haven't given yet, do so. If you've already 

given, perhaps you can give a little more. 

It's for the community good .

DOUBLE THREAT FOR DODD 

( Milford Cillun) 

For a while. it seemed as 

though Republican contenders 

were sleahng a bead start In Ute 

race to oust Thomas J. Dodd 

from hIS U S. Senate seal. A 

strange feature was that, when 

Dodd last ran in 1964, some w Ute 

leaders in the GOP campaign 

Utat year leaned more tow,rd 

him !ban toward John Locfge. 

their candidate. 

After Ute initial entry w Stste 

Sen. John Mather Luptoo and 

fonnerU.S. Rep. AbnerW.SIbaI, 

bolh w Weston, Ute pace slowed 

down, however. And only one w 

several aspirants expected for 

tbe Republican guberna torlal 

nomination, Sfate Sen. Wallace 

Barnes w Farmington, has put in 

ap~~l'an 

In Leyden. Mass. the school 

committee adopted a policy 

which staled. "On each school

Could 1\ be that a crack-down

only c:onc:entrates the markets in 

the hands of the pros-the same 

pros who handle heroln and the 

other hard drugs' They tell us 

that marijuana leads to herom 

through the seller. DOt througb 

the ChemIStry, and the government's 

record of dealing with the 

big drope peddlers isn' t so very 

hot. 

It remlDds us 0( aspects 0(

powerful lobbying of. bootieggers 

has helped to keep some slates
