Naugatuck, Sept. 12-No one has been appointed even temporarily to take the position left vacant by the resignation last Thursday of Miss Josephine A. Maher, Supt. of schools Harold E. ,Chittenden said today. And no one will be appointed, permanently or tenn porarily until the board of educa- tion meets and makes this ap- pointment, he declared.
 There had been rumors that a temporary appointment had been made. Supt. Chittenden emphati- cally denies these reports. He said Miss Ruth Stapleton who had been doing eight grade work is handling some of the phone calls, etc. con- nected with the work and a substi- tute has been named for a few days to take over part of Miss Stapleton's work, but this does not constitute temporary appoint ment to Miss Maher's position, he asserted.
 It is possible a, special meeting of the board of education may be held before the October meeting at which the appointment ques- tion would be taken up, he said.
 Overcrowding in grades six and seven and eigth in Salem school and Central avenue school has been relieved somewhat by transfer of some pupils from these schools to other schools. The board author ized the superintendent at the meeting last week to transfer these pupils some of whom live on Cur tiss or North Main streets to Un- ion city schools.
 Although there has been no off, ficial check on total enrollment fig ures since last Thursday, the regis- tration has remained about the same. Supt. Chittenden said this year was unusual in that there was a good attendance the first day and not many new pupils the sec- ond day.
 The usual thing is for large number of new pupils to enroll the second day of school. Little change is expected now.
