Board Adopts Ruling
 On Married Teachers
Wives of ServiCemen May Retain Positions for Dua-
 tiOn; Delegations Demand Bus Service

The easing of the rule in regard to servicemen's wives applies to all of those positions.
 Provision also was made that teacher shall notify the schcool su- perintendent's office as soon as she becomes aware of pregnancy and that she shall not remain in school later than five months prior to the expected date of the birth of the child. After the child's birth she may be permitted to return to her duties upon satisfactory evidence that she is in fit physical condition.
 More than 40 residents of the Crockett Hill and Platts Mills sec tions appeared before the board last night to request restoration of school busses in those sections. The board voted in favor of the request and agreed to contact the ODT for permission to place busses in serv- ice there.
 Mayor John s. Monagan told the group that the service was term mated on order of the ODT and that the board Is powerless to act without specific authorization from the agency.
 Spokesmen for the Crockett Hill section pointed out that some of the children have to walk mile and a half and two miles to school. The road was said to be in danger ous condition. About IS children would benefit from the proposed transportation. A Platts Mills resi- dent pointed out that an extra bus would not have to be used in trans porting children in that section as busses operate regularly through the area in transporting workers to Naugatuck plants,
 Permission was granted to five children to attend Schools out of their districts, while three other applications were denied. The changes were permitted as follows: David and Herman Didia of l9l Lincoln street, Kingsbury school instead of Driggs school; Dolores and Celia Not of ll0l Meriden road, Chase school instead of East Farms school; Floyd Clapp of 250 Cherry street, Bishop school sinstead of walsh school. Those who were un- successful in their petitions are: Elaine Rice of q Hungerford ave- nue, s. Robert Wise of Davis street, and Barbara McGrath of 56 Bryan street.
 A bid of e2,e00 made by the James Corideo. Inc. for storm water drain- age at Webster school was approved. It was pointed out that although the bid was the ony one received t was found to be reasonable.

Mayor, Opponent
 Victims of Shots
 AtBoard Meeting

Bits of political tomfoolery colored last nights meeting of the Board of Education which may find its cOnstitu- ents to include the city's two candidates for Mayor. Mayor John S. Monagan, whose Dem Ocratic wing is confident of a primary victory, was present to hear a portion of the "rib- bing," but Commissioner John J. Kearney, a leading candi- date for the Republican nOm- inatiOn, was at home, purpOrt- edly recovering from slight in- juries sustained in an auto &C., Cident Saturday.
 "I have something else iTn- pOrtant to attend to now" the mayor stated rising to leave for an aldermanic meeting after opening the education meeting as ex-officiO. chairman. "You mean the campaign of cOurse," chOrused the Republican mem- bers declining to understand him.
 The Democrats had . swing at 1t later in the evening when Democratic c m m ssiOner George McDuff made a motion to extend sympathy to Com missioner Kearney for his in- ability to attend the meeting ''due to injuries" Little doubt was left as to the Democrats idea of why the Republican leader was not present at the meeting.

 Doctors are changing the name to Pollinosls because there is no fever in hay fever and 1t isn't caused by hay The name hay fever orig mated in England when the symp- toms were thought to occur while gathering hay. 1I1ere is no rose fever = people react to rose on @ psychological basis, but are sensitive to other pollen.
 To understand why ragweed cam paigns fail, consider the enemy; pollen A giant ragweed plant produces nine rixiion pollen grains in five hours A field of grass produces eight million grains per square foot of surface; clouds of pollen are not uncommon =. In contrast 1t takes only 25 pollen grains per square cubic yard of air to make Q havyfeverite suffer .. 1. And suffer he does.
 Pollen grains are imperishable. <. Botanical geolcgigts have found perfectly preserved pollen in coal measures that were 25O million years old, from the carboniferous egel Ragweed seeds have been known to develop plants after having been buried forty years Clinical ex. periments have proved that pollens ao.. A,,,AkAka faa1,Sns,aVstka, Sas,krg S,aa s.s, after they have left their original plant.
 Hay fever pollens contain more than % substances by chemical analysis, mainly: Proteins, fats, carbohydrates, sugar, enzymes, wa- ter, lecithin, alcohol, ash, etc. . It is believed the active substance in pollen that irritates is a protein or akin to 1t.
 The only way to escape hay fever is to rent a houseboat and live in the middle of the ocean For those victims who can't do this the book, "Know Your Hay Fever" lists hay fever havens throughout the world by numerical ratings . These places have none or little poll len concentrations, due to climate and other factors.
 Hayfeverites shouldn't use adver- tised nostrums = except on the ad- vice of the doctor Each victim Is an individual case - certain peo- pie react differently to medicines. Most researchers of hay fever are and were hayfeverites Dr. Sper- ling, co-author of the book, "Know Your Hayfever," and publisher Fred eric V.
