.DonohueNow Number One Candidate
 Choice of Woterbury
 Party for Congress
 In 5Fh District

Joseph P. Donahue, of Nauga- tuck, will be the Democratic Party of Waterbury's nominee for Con- gress from the Fifth District, it was definitely learned today.
 MT. Donahue is reliably reported to be the choice of Party leaders of this city which is tantamount to nomination. Waterbury controls 46 delegates to the convention the largest of any area in the District.
 Donahue is now managing edi- tor of the Naugatuck News, was formerly reporter for The Wa terbury Democrat and one-time sec- retary to former Cong. J. Joseph Smith now Federal Court Judge of the Hartford District.
 Some opposition to the choice of the Naugatuck man is said to have developed among delegates as to first ballot voting. The opposition is not personal in nature and consists of no more than the insistence that Waterbury should cast its first ball. lot for any Waterbury candidate. These include Raymond F. Fitz- patrick labor reporter for The Democrat and Patrick Kelley for mer public relations man of the Naugatuck Rubber Company. It is believed that the delegation may cast its first ballot for Fitzpatrick. Choice of MT Donahue is said to be based on his past experience in Washington and the Fifth District when an associate of Judge Smith. He has not yet formally announced his candidacy.

Anticipate Increase Here In School Registrations

Opening Day activities were re- ported orderly at local schools to- day, the main complaints coming from mothers who were unsuccessful in enrolling under-age children.
 Although no official reports were available, early indications were that kindergartens will be filled to capacity this year. The record total of 1000 was reached last year, and school officials anticipated an in crease of several hundred this year Unable to gain admittance of children who were as little as week or two under the prescribed be- ginner's age, mothers today f1ocked to principals office and the office of the superintendent of schools seeking exceptions.
 Dr. John G. Gilmartin, school head, pointed out that only children who will have reached the age of five by Feb 1 may enter kndergar- tens, and only those who will be six by Feb. 1 may be enrolled in first grade. He pointed that the rule pre- viously required children to be one month older, but that it was changed to the Feb. limit several years ago.
 Principals at several of the larger schools reported that Kindergarten enrolment appeared much heav- fer" At several schools, notably, Driggs and Walsh, where double

 The keystone of the community's program must be in services di- rected to those children, and the families of those children, who show recognizable signs of beginning trouble" MT. Heininger urged

 Rourke told The Democrat that the Federation is determined to carry on to the finish its campaign for recognition of the AFL. unions as bargaining agents for Water bury's policemen and flremen.
 May Organize Teachers
 Meantime, hints of a statewide drive to organize all teachers in Connecticut municipalities under the A.F.L. were heard in convention rooms.
 A resolution which would have an important effect on the Water bury situat'or was being considered by the resolutions committee this afternoon. The resolution would place under the provisions of the State Labor Relations Board all those who are employed by the State or by any political, civil, or educational subdivision thereof.
 The convention at noon received a resolution criticizing the Repub- lican State Administration of Con- necticut fer giving "lip-service" to the veterans in their housing prob lem but failing to take concrete action to remedy the states lack of housing facilities.
 A 800 percent increase in mem bership of Local 145, Hotel and Res taurant Employees Union, was re- ported to the convention today by George F. Mulhgan, Jr., of Water bury, president of the local MT. Mulligan told the convention that campaign to win union contracts in Waterbury restaurants and bars will be started in the near future.
 Michael O'Rourke, secretary treasurer of the Connecticut Plum bers Association and treasurer of Local g, the Waterbury Plumbers unit, is a member of the finance committee at the convention.

Continued from Page D budget increase for the Board o1 Education of $31 ,OO0 to take care oi the salary demands. The amount represented about five percent ot what the teachers asked.
 There were no demonstrations at any of the schools following Jacobs announcement they would not re- open.
 You're 8 mighty fine bunch of boys and girls he told the high school students when he explained the situation to them in the school auditorium.
 Students Stay Away
 At the three junior high schools and 12 elementary schools, many of the pupils failed to appear be- cause of the uncertainty whether there would be classes.
 The Board of Education met last night to review the situation and adjourned soon after going into ex- ecutive session. Chairman Alexan- der R. Serena said he saw no pur- pose in going over the situation which had been reviewed repeated ly within the past several weeks.
 Of the 236 teachers, only nine returned their new contracts signed. The others insisted that the Board Of Estimate restore to the Board of Education budget $90,112, or about half the amount they de- clared necessary to meet proposed new salary adjustments.
 The Board of Estimate approved $31 900 of this amount, the equal Of 5 percent raise
 Previous to the controversy, the Board of Education recognized the Teachers Association as a bargain ing agency of the instructors, but this recognition was withdrawn when unsigned contracts started pouring in. Meantime, the educa- ton board appealed to the teachers to report for the reopening of schools, so that the pupils wouls not be deprived of their education.
 Haas Supports Teachers
 Charles 0. Haas, a hat manufac- turer and former member of the board, instituted an injunction suit in City Court to restrain the board from hiring new teachers, thus ex- posing the city to possible lawsuits by teachers dropped from the pay roll. However, Judge Arnold Fasano ruled the suit beyond his jurisdic- tion and suggested it be brought in Superior Court at Bridgeport.
 Haas instituted the suit when 1t was reported that the education board had the applications of 30 teachers under consideration as possible replacements in event of a strike.
 All of the schools were opened this morning, with a custodian in charge of single entrance to each of the buildings. The custodians were instructed to close any build ing where teachers failed to report.
 While hundreds of children were kept away by the parents, others were on the school grounds far ahead of opening time anxiously awaiting developments.
 ParOchiaIs EnviOus
 They sang, played games, and one tow-headed youngster at Ban- jamin Franklin Junior High School shouted:
 "Oh boy I hope they never come back"
 Envious of the public school pu- pills were those attending the two parochial schools, which were un- affected by the controversy. The parochial pupils marched into their classes, per schedule.
 The city's junior college also was not disturbed by the strike. This school has tie-in with the State normal school system, and it's teachers were not represented by the association.
 The only ones on the job at open ing time were the custodians and Secretarial Staffs.
