Naugatuck, June "A brief fare up between Burgess George Fellows and Burgess Joseph Nygren over an inconsequential matter, and accept ance of the resignation of Sergeant Timothy Reardon as sergeant and appointment of Patrolman Anthony Farrar as police sergeant; and dis cussion of the possibility of the bor- ough buying the Woolen Mill pond property as future site for a street department yard were some of the features of a lengthy meeting of the board of warden and burgess last night.
 No letters from residents here were read by Republican burgesses all though the G. O. P. members of the board brought up number of mat ters and after the meeting Burgess Nygren said these matters were prompted by letters received by the Republican burgesses, who recently took out a post office box.
 Strained feelings were manifested for a moment by Burgesses Fellows and Nygren during a discussion of a motion by Burgess Nygren concern ing the rubbish collection. Burgess Fremont Hoadley said he got let ter asking if regular schedule for such collections could not be kept to. Warden John J. Sheridan ex- plained that this seems impossible because borough trucks have to be used for WPA work and it is in the intervals between WPA work periods that the collections are possible.
 He pointed out the trucks are also necessary for oiling work in the summer and said although he would like to have the collection made the first of each month, it does not seem possible to set a certain time for 1t. MT. Hoadley agreed it is 8 fine ser- vice.
 Would Compete
 Burgess Nygren then suggested an investigation to determine just how much collection of cans cost and how much collection of ashes on private property would cost be made. Bur gess Leo Smigelski pointed out the town would be competing with pri- vate persons if it collected ashes.
 Burgess Nygren then formally moved that an investigation to see whether a set schedule for rubbish collection could be maintained be made. Although Warden Sheridan did not express opposition to this motion, Mir. Fellows asked, "Why should we investigate the collection of cans when we are already col lecting them. It is Democratic ser- vice never given before the present administration" he said.
 MT. Nygren, with flushed face, leaned toward MT. Fellows and said, Lets forget politics. Let's have no politics tonight. have avoided this" ]" It appeared as though the argument would grow more heated, but War den Sheridan rapped for order and called attention to the motion. MT. Fellows said he thought the motion was out of order. "They have brought up 40 projects tonight for the street department and now they want to take the trucks of to collect rub bish," he said vitterly. The vote was then taken and MT. Fellows was the only one opposing it, he uttering an angry No"
 Reardon Resigns
 The request of Sergeant Reardon that he be made regular police man and be no longer a sergeant was a general surprise, although there had been rumors to this effect several weeks ago.
 Warden Sheridan explained Ser geant Reardon's wife is i'll and he has to stay home with her nights.
