CHASE PARK SITE
 TO CLOSE SUNDAY
Harris Denies Admission Price Quoted in Amer.
 ican Last Night

No action whatsoever had been taken as yet in connection with raging of buildings at the Settlers Village. William M. Harris pointed out that while the gates will be closed Sunday, as announced yes- terday, the exhibits would be re- tained in the houses of the various nationalities at the village so they may be be viewed by visitors who will be here for a convention Octo- Der 6, 2 and 8.
 It was erroneously reported by the American yesterday, according to the village manager, that the admission charge during the past summer had been 25 cents per per. son. He pointed out today the charge had been Is cents, neces- sary in order to defray expenses incurred in regard to general main- tainance and cost of electricity.
 As the situation stands today, the village, Waterbury's contribution to the Connecticut Tercentenary cele- bration in 1885, will close its gates to the public on Sunday.
 Many racial groups in the city have been very much interested in the village since 1t was first estab- lished in 1885 .and it is felt at the present time there is 8 possibility that they may convene at some time in the near future to discuss plans for preservation of the vil- lage.

Republicans In. Drive Against
 SenatorLawlor
Four Names Mentioned for 18th District HOnOrs;
 UpsOn Neutral

Four republicans are after the g.o.p. senatorial nomination in the 18th district, it was disclosed today. They are Merran Hill, former head of the inspection department of the local motor vehicle ofice, George Mitchell, prominent Young Repub- Hcan club member, Finton Cuddy and Floyd Rasmussen. The latter is the union party candidate for senator in the 18th but is seeking the republican party's endorsement, feeling that in this way his power will be strengthened.
 { Friday nights 18th senatorial dis trict convention, therefore, promises to be an exciting one. One group favors the naming of an outright republican candidate. The other faction favors the endorsing of Ras- mussen. Mitchell, Cuddy and Hill each have strong backing.
 UpsOn Neutral
 Town Chairman J. Warren Upson is maintaining a "hands-off" policy in the fight. He will not preside at Friday nights session as he will be in Seymour addressing Q g.o.p. gathering. Alderman George King ston will cali the convention to or- der and will preside pending the election of a permanent chairman. Incidentally, Chairman Upson, who Is the g.o.p. candidate for congress in the 5th district, will speak Sat- urday night in Naugatuck at a meeting of the Italian-American Republican club, and will go to Tor rington Sunday to speak at an out ing.
 No date has yet been set for the 18th senatorial district convention, Chairman Upson stated this cuorn- ing. ''No arrangements for the convention have been made as yet, 1" he said.
 Confident
 The fact that there are so many republicans after the 18th district nominat ton is a surprise to many. In past years the nomination has gone begging and the republican taking the place on the ticket was considered 8 good party man" will ing to sacrifice himself. This year the republicans feel that they can wrest the election away from the democrat incumbent, Senator Jo. seph H. Lawlor. Whether they will decide to do this wrestling by nom- mating a candidate of their own ol endorsing Rasmussen will be thu feature of Friday nights convention at party headquarters on West Mair street. 9"'

 ing Confident of Victory Here in November

roll, Dr. Arthur T .Gilyard, Fred- erick w. Chesson and Coroner John T. Monzani. All five have been mell- tioned for the republican senatorial nomination in the 18th district but 1t is rumored that the powers that be" in the g. o. p. ranks have . sur- prise candidate to offer.
 Feeling has begun to grow In the republican ranks that Waterbury may be pushed into the republican column this year. This outlook, of course, is scoffed at by the demo~ cratic party leaders. However. there is a lack of desire on the part of most republicans to take the 18th district senatorial nomination in the face of strength expected to be shown by the democratic incumbent, Senator George T. Culhane.
 Convention Date
 Therefore, there IS rush for the nominations for representative. The g. o. D. town convention here will be held on October 9th. Town Chair man J. Warren UpSon will issue the call for the session within t..e corn- ing week so as to conform, formally, with party regulations and the re- quirements of the state statutes governing elections.
 The two local state representatives are Attorney John D. Thoms and Daniel J. Mahaney, democrats. The democratic town convention has not yet been called by Town Chairman John H. Crary. Neither has h called the 18th district convention. Chair man Upon of the republican party is also putting of the calling of the 18th district convention.
