Leaders To Select
 Mayoralty Nominee n.Week-End Session
Roger V. COnnOr or Frank J. Wall May Head List of rCandidates; Regular Democratic Ticket Faces
 Loss of Votes By Action

Party heads have made no final decision on the rest of the Inde- pendent Democratic ticket. since there is some difference of opinion as to whether the party should pre- sent a full slate of candidates or should endorse some Republican or Democratic nominees.
 The Independents decision to en- 'er a ticket of their own will mean loss of votes on the part of the 'egular Democratic ticket but it is difficult to estimate how great the loss will be. Two years ago the Inc dependents boiled only a few hun- dred votes, though in previous elec- lions they had garnered several thousand or more. Tn the 1887 elec- ton, the Independents support al- most brought an election victory to the Republicans. It did make pos- sible the election of the late Sher- wood L. Rowland as city controller.
 A call for 6 nominating caucus by the Independent Democrats will be ssued soon by MT. Conner, the par- sy's town chairman.
 The right of MT. Connor to call himself town chairman has been dis- ,uted by James T. Hartley, who ontends that he Is chairman, but he Connor forces claim ruling by Attorney General Francis A. Pallottl in their favor. The party split in city election two years ago after Q caucus had endorsed the full regular Democratic ticket.

The board will also hear recom- mendations from the finance com uittee with regard to the petition Of Waterbury teachers for a 90 per cent salary increase, and will re- ceive a report from the committee on school activities with regard tc the investigation of the present sys- tenn of physical education.
 At the last meeting of the board parents of several children in the North End urged that the board take immediate action to remedy the over er-cruwded situation at the Kingshury school, where tive diff ferent grades were recently combined under one teacher, while ct the Ah- bolt school classes consist of only 1e or l7 pupils.
 The irate parents reported alst that the wealthier residents of tho section had had the school boun. diaries changed deliberately, so that their children would not have ts attend Abbott school.
 The petitioners found consider able support on the board, severa members urging an immediate in' vestigation of the situation In tn two schools, apart from the genera survey of district boundaries whicl is in progress. Such an investiga ton was approved by the board which will hear the report of thu committee on Monday night. A committee of Commissioner Perry 0ralcerstein, Harold Perkin son and Francis P. Barnes met re gently to discuss the teachers peti ton for . salary increase, in viev of the constantly rising cost of liv ing. Their decision will not be mad public until the board meeting, bu 1t is reported that they favor Q I per cent increase for teachers, il keeping with that recommended 10 other city employees.

 A final topic to be considered ct the coming session Is the matter of . federal grant for the erection of 6 trade school in the city.
