(Continued from Page 1.)

News of Dr Dolan's boom was received in Waterbury by demo- cratic leaders to-day with no sur prise. This was due to the fact that 1t had been heard previously that he was in a receptive mood and would take the post should he have the opportunity to do so.
 However. there Is expected to be strong opposition to Dr Dolan from the "old guard" faction of the state central committee and from former National Committeeman Thomas J. Spellacy of Hartford. ex-Mayor David E. Fitzgerald of New Haven and ex-State Chairman James J. Walsh of Meridcn. Just how the local leaders will look upon Dolan's candidacy in view of the manner in which the Water- bury democrats have been treated by the Cross regime Is also an inn portant question to be yet decided.
 "If Dr Dolan Is a candidate. that's fne." said Town Chairman John H. Crary to-day. "It is pos sible, though, that others will be in the race so we in Waterbury will wait and see just what develops"
