"Undoubtedly the role of town councillor carries a heavy re- sponsibility, but to the political animal such responsibility is accepted eagerly. I am assured by those whose opinions I value that my time on the Public Schoo] Board was not entirely wasted. If elected to the Town Council, I would bring to this new responsibility, the same vigor that has been applied to other tasks which have come my way."
