NAUCATUCK Warden Is Chairman
 Of Welcome Group
Meeting Held Last Night to Plan for Burke Reception
 To Be Held Next Thursday Night

Plans for the big welcome ceIe- bration to be rendered Billy Burke, national open golf champion, na- tive son of the borough were given great impetus at an enthusiastic meeting of citizens of the borough held last night in the Cha mber of Commerce hall at the solicitation of Warden Frank T. Green who was named chairman of the com mittee for the event by the board of warden and burgesses.
 The celebration will be held on next Thursday and the present plans are that the national cham pion will come to the borough early in the afternoon and play an exhibition game at the links of the Naugatuck Golf club. It may be match game with some national ly known golfer or Billy may take part in a fOursome.
 The plans call for a large delc- gation of the borough residents to travel to Bridgeport about noon hour and there meet the champion and escort him to the borough. In the evening at 6:30 o'clock mon ster street parade is to be staged with all of the fraternal and civic orga niZations of the borough be- ing invited to take part. lt IS planned to have the parade shori one as MT Burke is deslrlous ol conserving his energy for nara season that is before him. FonoW- ing the parade it is planned 10 have a big testimonial banquet 10 which the public will be invited. It was suggested that band con cert be held after the banquet. All of these plans are tentative ana may be changed slightly before the day of the celebration.
 From the enthusiasm displayed at the meeting the demonstration will rival that rendered the Nauga- tuck high schoo1 basketball team m on their first triumph at Phi'adei- phia for the Eastern States cham pionship.
 Warden Frank T. Green called the meeting to order last night. All of those present voiced their opin- ion as to the type of celebration suitable. All seemed to feel that the celebration would be a gala one. Warden Green informed those in attendance that he had already been assured by Rev James IT. Butler of Waterbury of the services of the St Fra ncis Xavier Drum Corps for the parade. Richard T. ! Parkinson of the St Francis T. A. B. Drum Corps stated that ne thought several corps would oner their assistance for the parade. It seemed to be the general opinion that the Naugatuck Military band should be engaged. These matters will be handled by the parade committee.
