 As the town does not supervise any pool it has no financial reSpon- sibilIty in case of drowning but the discussion at the meeting Tuesday aroused much interest and was being freely discussed today. Warden in Dilemma '
 Warden John J. Sheridan seems to be in the horns of . delimnaa with no easy way out. He wants the children to have c swimming pool 50 that they can enjoy them selves, remembering well his own boyhood in swimming pleasures.
 But on the other hand his duty to the town compeis him to disap- prove of the town erecting such a pool if 1t is to be held financially responsible in case of an accident there.
 With his endeavors to secure WPA funds to pay life guards to supervise such Q pool here having resulted in failure, 1t is not known what step can be taken next.

 Many residents feel that the town should have such . pool but they give the warden credit for showing the necessary courage to oppose such c move until the town can be relieved of responsibility in case of accidents.

 No Action on Invitation
 Although there was discussion at the July meeting of the Naugatuck Fish and Game association last night concerning an invitation to join the state association, no ac- ton was taken on 1t. Thomas Saunders, secretary of the local club, exlained the benefits of al- ligning the local association with the central body.
 It would give more strength to the state association in It's attempts to pass legislation helpful to sports- men, he explained, characterizing this as the most advantage locally. The invitation was accepted and placed on file for future action.
 Plans for the annual outing of the Naugatuck club to De held at its grounds in straitsville on July 10 were made at the session. Leslie Baker, president, announced he hopes to have several hunting dogs  on hand to demonstrate pointing, retrieving from land and retrieving from water.
