Nurse Reported Leaving
Efforts to verify a report that
MISS Cara l.. Gallant, visiting nurse
employed by the Plainville Public
Health Nursing association, has sub.
mitted her resignation to become ef-
fective within a month. have been
unsuccessful. but Mrs. Frank P.
Usher. president Of the association.
has not denied 1t. The association
will hold a meeting tomorrow night.
and 1t Is possible that the matter
Will be discussed then and an an
nouncement made thereafter.
Miss Gallant came here in Janu-
airy from Arlington, Mass, succeed
ing Miss Elizabeth Heineman. She
had had wide experience in war
service. Near East relief. and hos
pital work In this country. Since
coming here she has greatly enlarged
the work Of the association and has

porting basis for the first time.
Schubert Declines
George Schubert Of Canal street
has announced that he will not &C.
cept the appointment to constable's
position which was offered him Fri
day by the board OF selectmen. IF
they want to elect me next fall, all
right" he says. but he does not wish
to take over the place by appoint
ment. This is believed to be because
his name was omitted from the list
Of candidates for constables submit
ted at the republican caucus last
fall. Mr.. Schubert was IL constable
until that time and is said to have
felt keenly the dropping OF his
name.
First Selectman John J. kimmel
said today that he had as yet re-
ceived no word from Mr.. Schubert
concerning a refusal. The selectmen
understood. when they appointed
Schubert, that he would accept.
There are still two vacancies in
the force. but the selectmen are in
no hurry to fill them. William Kra-
mer Is known to be seeking an APP
pointment, and the name of Edward
Madeley Is being mentioned; the lat
ter at present Is a forest fire warden
and member Of the fire department.
There Is some agitation for the
appointment OF a traffic officer at
Central square on Sundays and holi-
days. when traffic Is exceptionally
heavy. Vehicular traffic through
Plainville Is as heavy as at any place
in the state. and the center is an
awkward place. There is a dummy"
there at present, but this fails to
prevent innumerable bumpers fend-
ers and is often disregaried by hur-
rying cars,
