No extra speciat Xmas tights wilt

(Continued from Rage One)
Mr. Rollins was selected for the
award because of his activities in
promoting the production and mar
keting of better fruit. His interest
and the encouragement he has given
growers has been instrumentai in
making fruit growing one of the
major types of commercia) agricul
ture in Connecticut.
Brought up on a farm in New
Hampshire, Mr. Rollins is a gradu
ate of the University of New Hamp
shire from which he also received his
master's degree in horticulture. He
did Extension horticultural work in
that state from 1923 to 1930, coming
to Connecticut as Extension fruit
specialist in 1930. In 1945 he be
came head of the University's plant
science department.

the matter and since 1 don't believe
the compensation is sufficient to cover
the services rendered at the present
time I would much rather relinquish
the post.
"1 don't consider myself as being
indispensable and I would like to go
on record as sincerely believing that
the City can avail itself of tht^ serv
ices of a competent individual at the
present rate of compensation."

Nativity Play

pared in its significance and produc
tion to the famed Oberammergau
spectacle.
When the origina] piace of perfor
mance for 'Holy Night was taken
down, chiefly because it was consider
ed unsafe, the haH at Pomfret School
was generously proffered for the oc
casion and was for many years the
scene of this notable presentation.
Authorities revealed this week that
as long as the Town of Pomfret,
through the untiring enterprise of its
loyal citizens, has an adequate hall
in connection with the new school
building at Pomfret Center, the

undoubtedly be given in that hall as
long as it continues.
