J List Deiore the parade began , additional contingents of Girl Scouts left the Four Corners with more balloons , which were passed out to children along the line of march. Redemption centers located on East Main , West Main and South Ocean were manned by members of the Key Club of Patchogue Hig h , who exchanged gifcs provided by member stores, of the merchants division to children who had been lucky enough to acquire one of the special colors that had been posted. Prior to the start of the par- ade , Mayor Robert Waldbauer , as&isted by Abe Siege) , chairman of the merchants division , and Andrew Carter , past chairman , officiall y lighted the street decora- lions at Main and Ocean. A few minutes later , the parade , under Pete Poulos , village recreation dii ector , began its trek down Main Street. In addition to the Santa float , which was lighted by the light trucks from the North Patchogue and Patchogue Fire Departments , the recreation department had two floats , one with carolers trim- ming a tree and the other a Santa workshop showing the work of the community center in the rest- oration of old and discarded toys for needy children. The colorful advance music was provided by the young members of the Medford Fire Department band who led the parade and acted as a review when Santa passed the main intersection. When the parade ended at Havens Avenue , hundreds of children sough t the friendly handshake of Santa and his spouse and one child threw a special gift to Mrs. Santa. Dave Meltzer of the Fotocraft Shop, who has portrayed Santa fox- three years , was joined by Mrs. Santa , who is actual- ly Mrs. Dave Meltzer . The fes- tivities were sponsored by the Merchants Division of the Pat- chomie Chamber of Commerce in cooperation with the Patchogue Recreation Department.

Merd'j s , Connel ly vi<v president , has boon on the hoard for 27 years. Considerable support for Dr. Whitsitt came in a letter dated Nov. 10 , and signed by Melvin B. Hill , supervising- principal , to the then school hoard president . Dr. Snell. The letter was read at the meeting of No -\ ember 17 on the insistence of Whitsitt supporters. Tn a portion of the letter , a copy of which was loaned to The Advanc- by Mr. Obrig, Mr. Hill declared: \I hwxo had the opportunit y of getting to know Dr. Whitsitt in a shouMer - to - shoulde- rolationshin durin g th» past two and one-half year^ . 1 have observed him at work in oonfi vence^ with teacher^ and other personnel of the staff . T have sat in on parent confer- ences , pupil conf erences and fac- ulty and principal' s meetings with him. T have noted his work in school a^onib'ies . coun t v an'' state administrators ' meetings , and have seen his reactions at sports events g-atherings. \I have to rate him in the top 10 per cent of school administra- tors with regard to mental alert- ness , general intelligence , profes- sional competence , buoyancy and dynamic drive seriousness of pur- pose , acutene&s of conscience , in- cisiveness and decisiveness. He has more energy than any three administrators T know. He is com- p letely dependable in any assi gn- ment. He has been comp letely loyal to me as his administrative superior. His fortitude has been remarkable unde r the most trying -ireum stances I have ever wit- nessed. He almost seems to func- tion best when the going is roug h- est. \Time and again Dr. Whitsitt has flown in the fnep of adversity to get for your childre n the kind of education-' 1 program which \mcric;t , c : e ' i\ iron have the ri g ht to expect. He weighs neither per- - .minl hazard nor inconvenienc 1 T1 oli'-i\a 1 expediency is g iven only na tc ; ; n<- \otice. . . \ Vi Hill went into Dr. Whit- ^itt' s considerable educational background , described advance- ment s made during the past 2M> vears and. in concluding his let- ter , pointed out: \You ' ve got a man—the kind of •i man vou said you wanted. You knew then , better than anyone else, what kind of a man was --¦ceded, and you unhesitating ly hired him. We and Dr. Whitsitt know that some improvements are needed. I have detailed these needs and he has responded as a good student. There has been im- provement. Giving the proper understanding and support should result in further satisfaction. . . \ Before closing the letter , Mr. Hill stated : \I recommend that this board of education , upon the nomination of the district super- intendent , p lace Dr. Whitsitt on tenure immediatelv , and give this district a much-deserved chance to stabilize itself. \ Bayp ' t Principal I ¦ \ ontinued fv\»m page 1 , this section tossing of a coin would not be the proper way to decide the is- sue. The secretary ' s opinion gave reservation also to Albany Fire of- ficials who , following Tuesday night' s tie , had suggested the coin flip, Mr. Warner said. At press time yesterday it seem- ed that the idea of a fli p had taken a definite flop as Mr. War- ner waited on a wire from the attorney general' s office. Mr. Warner ' s op inion was that the wire will prescribe the board' s making an intermediary appoint- ment until the next elections are held. \Under no circumstances will there be another vote to break the tie before the next elections. \ said Mr. Warner , basing his statement on the opinions of the authorities he had spoken to. Commissioner Bramble'/ was ap- pointed to fill the office left va- cant last July by the death of Ed- ward B. Bristow , Sr. E' port Ponders SANTA'S ARRIVAL during parade in Patch- ogue Saturday ni ght was accompanied by great crowds of kiddies and grown-ups.

He said he (Mr. Barraud) had taken two days off between Novem- ber 13 and 17 and had spoken to Mr. Zahlman on November 17. Mr. Stout acknowledged that the tw r o days were \deserved\ and assured Mr. Bai'raud that the board was not critical of him for that action. I I After the discussion , Mr. Stout said the matter would by referred to an attorney assigned to the highway department. Introduces Dominy Supervisor Stout introduced Su- pervisor-elect Charles R. Dominy, Councilmen-elect David L. Weiss- berg°r and Clarence L. Houg h , and Town Clerk-elect Edwin Arn- zen , who were invited to attend the meeting by Mr. Stout. The third Councilman-elect , George Fuchs , was also invited , but was unable to attend. \The present incumbents have been more than cooperative. \ said Mr. Dominy, \ and we appreciate it. \ The new administration , led by Mr. Dominy, a Republican , will take office January 1 , 1902. In a letter to the town board, the board of education of school District 24 (Patchogue-Medford ) said that on October 10 it had passed a resolution deeding Roe Avenue School to the town with the covenant stipulating that the property will be used as a muse- um. During the Summer the build- ing was used as the Town ' s Civil War Centennial Museum. Robert Bauer , Patchogue attorney, was appointed to draw up the deed. Insurance Question Supervisor Stout said he and members of the board would ap- pear tonight to explain the town ' s newly-adop ted group insurance program to a meeting of the Brookhaven Town Highway Em- ployes ' Association in the Medford Brau Haus on Route 112. He said a representative of Equitable Life Insurance Company would be pre- sent to tell about the insurance program which the board adop ted November 21. Under the program the town employes pay half of the cost and the town pays the other half. In other matters the board : 1) Awarded the contract for the Corey Beach dredging and marina to Gibson & Cushman , Inc., of Bay Shore , who submitted a low bid of $27 , 830. The other bid of $39 , 220 was submitted by South Shore Contracting and Dred g ing Corp. of Patchogue. 2) Accepted \ with regret the resignation of Mrs. Lynn Nichols , effective December 31. Mrs. Nich- ols has served as Mr. Stout' s as- sistant since he took office in 1960 , preparing press releases and briefing representatives of the piess. \I'll miss working with you next year , \ said Mr. Stout with a warm smile. < \ >) Accepted the resignation of Mrs. Rita Saporito Buckley, who was granted a year ' s leave of ab- sence July 25 , 1961 from the po- sition of stenographer in the su- pervisor ' s office, and appointed Mrs. Cornelia C. Roys to the per- manent position of stenographer , a post she has held since Jul y 31. 4) Accepted the resignation of Michael Nappa as a buyer in the town purchasing department , ef- fective December 15. and appointed Jose Sanchez from a County Ci- vil Service list to fill the post , effective December 6 , at an an- nual salary of $5 , 360. 5) Authorized the Long Island Lighting Company to install six street lights , at a cost not to ex- ceed $84 per year , at Route 25 and Upton Roa d , Ridge. 6) Authorized James J. Walsh of 102 Ocean Avenue , Bayport , a time extension in filing his $67 , - 000 bond for construction of a subdivision known as Patchogue Oaks , on the recommendation of George Lechtrecker , special town attorney. Mr. Lechtrecker explain- ed that there had been an error by a town agency in advising Mr. Walsh , president of Jayem Home Builders , Inc., of Isli p, of the Oc- tober 1 deadline for filing maps in the County Clerk' s office. 7) Referred to Councilman How- ard Rowland for investigation whether the North Patchogue Ci- vic Association intends to petition the town board to set up a light- ing district in North Patchogue to provide street lighting for the Brook Ridge development. Patch- ogue Attorney Frederick Mars wrote the board that he had pre- pared the necessary petitions and submitted them to the civic as- sociation , but the association had failed to return the petitions with signatures. The town board cannot establish a lighting district on its own motion. On November 21 the town board adopted an amendment to Group 3 to the town ordinances provid- ing two advance categoi - ies which are available to developers on a voluntary basis. One new classifi- cation known as \A-l\ , is avail- able to developments having a mi- nimum homesite area of 40 , 000 square feet and at least 200 feet of continuous frontage upon a public road. Under the \A\ re- sidential zone 30 ,000 square feet and 150 foot frontage is required Under the \B-l\ classification , the minimum lot area would be 22 , 500 square feet with 150 foot fi ontage. The \B\ residential zone requirementis 15 ,000 square feet and 100 foot frontage. The new classifications would be available to developments having a minimum area oi* 75 acres and at least 400 feet of continuous frontage upon a public raod There is no substitute for The Advance in this area. —Adv.
