c. Y. Q. DEBATERS'
 MEET THURSDAY.
Two Outstanding Teams to Debate on Abolition
 of IVA, eco Agencies

The discontinuance of two fed- eral agencies, the National Youth Administration and the Civilian Conservation Corps, will be the sub- ject for discussion next Thursday evening when C.Y.O. speakers rep- resenting St. Margaret's and St. Lucy's chapter, meet in the weekly debates sponsored by Sheridan council, Knights of Columbus.
 The representatives of St. Mar garet's have chosen the affirmative side of the interesting question. In view of the recent agitation in Com gress over the abolition of the two agencies, speakers on both sides are not likely to experience any diffi- culty in lnassing considerable data in support of their respective claims.
 The debate will be held in K. of c. rooms and the general public is invited to attend.
 The contest between St. Mar garet's and St. Lucy's looms as one of the most important events of the fourth annual tournament. Many observers believe that the winner of this particular debate is likely to figure in the finals for the city's debating championship and for the James F. Arnold Memorial trophy now held by St. Joseph's C.Y.O. team. St. Margaret's team was runner-up in the 1941 finals and St. Lucy's in 1889.
 The judges for the contest will be announced by the K. of c. com- mittee on educational activities to- morrow.

 ican Brass Company Dispute

Plans to increase var production were laid out at Q meeting of the electromagnetic committee of the waterbury Clock Company at the plant today. The committee is one of several which the Waterbury Brass workers Union and company 1nanagements have set lip following c suggestion by War Production Chief Donald M. Nelson.
 John J. Driscoll, executive secre- tary of the Waterbury Brass Work CTS Union, described the Clock Com. pany as the most advanced" labor management group yet in opera tion locally. The union conferees at this mornings meeting were led by John Mankowski.
 The waterbury Clock Company has a large volume of war orders for this country and for Great Bri- tain. Fuses for shells and other am- intuition are plant speciality.
 The company and the union re- gently agreed on a new labor con- tract, whereby employees received a wage increase of six cents an hour.
 The firm has started the erection of e new plant at the Waterbury Middlebury town line, near Larch- mont Lake.
 The waterbury Brass Workers Union, c. I. o. today awaited word from the War Labor Board at Washington on its request for fed- eral intervention in the unions con- tract dispute with the American Brass Company.

are conscious. He added that the public schools in Waterbury are as safe from fire as any schools in the state.
 Remove Books
 He recommended that school at- tics and cellars be cleared of ell inflammable materials such as books, maps, paper decorations and that all attic doors be locked. He sug- gested that if funds are available that all stand pipe hose found de- fective or missing be replaced if possible, but expressed the belief that hose of this type could no longer be purchased.
 The subject of stand pipe hose drew comment from Commissioners John J. Kearney and Harold J. Parkinson who expressed the idea that standpipes should be made ef- fective as soon as possible. Commis- sioner Kearney asked if fire extin- guishers could possibly take the place of stand pipes and questioned ability of persons to use the extin- guishers. A motion was passed re- ferring the problem to the commit tee on school houses.
 The fact that the report on school buildings made by the state board of education had not been referred to the local board was criticized by Commissioner Kearney who said we should have been notified of the Hartford report before Dr. God- frey or the plumbing and building inspectors here filed their reports" He added that recommendations from the state should be studied by the full board and not just by tho inspectors.
 Suggestions Followed
 Dr. Condon explained that most of the recommendation made in the state boards report filed last January had been taken care of by School Building Inspector John Mc- Cough, and only in cases where ma- terials could not be obtained the suggestions were not followed.
 It was revealed, following 8 ques- ton from Commissioner Parkinson, that the local school authorities had never previously received a similar report from Hartford.
 pr. Condon suggested that the board request the boards of finance and education prior to the making of the next budget for appropria- tions which would permit replace ment of drinking fixtures in the public schools to conform with the newest recommended types.
 Copies of the report from Hart ford will be sent to each commis- sioner as the result of Q request made by Joseph A. DeLuca.

 KATHERINE E. DODD
 During the past week death claimed two of our faculty members of many years standing.
 Miss Katherine E. Dodd, who served with us for thirty years died on April ninth. With the ex ception of two years in Waisn school all of Miss Dodd's teach ing was in Slocunn school. She was a most conscientious woman. earnest and sincere in every phase of her teaching yet SC whole e-heartedly interested in her pupils and their welfare that her assignment appeared 8 work of love rather than Q. plain, stark duty. Kindly in thought, sweet iKa manner and gentle of tongue Miss Dodd left with us the mem ory of Q character of enduring beauty. Our deepest condolences are offered to her family In tlaAs time of bereavement. May she rest in peace.
 MARY G. DELANEY
 On April tenth the death ol Miss Mary c. Delaney, principal of Anderson school, occurred. Miss Delaney, a most capable teacher and principal, was strick en at a time when the peak ot her success loomed in sight. Her teaching service began in 1908 and she was promoted first to & principals assistancy, then to teaching principalship and finally to supervisory principalship in 1886. Her grasp of the duties Of these progressive stages proved her an executive of marked. abll ity and her continued advance ment was assured when illness cut short her career of splendid promise. If Miss Delaney felt any bitterness or disappointment that this was so she concealed it with a gracious and courageous strength and Q calm acceptance of her hour of trial that may well serve as Q fine example to those who knew her. We extend our heartfelt sympathy 10 her family and, with prayer for her eternal happiness, resign her 70 her Maker.
