Gates, veteran member of the Board of Brighton School District 1 took form yesterday.

Two of four persons whose r.amea were announced yesterday as possible opponents to Gates aid they -were willing to have their names put in nomination at the annual meeting of the district on the night of July 11. They were Einer T. Anderson, 47 Willard and LaJhrop D. Marsland, 140 Chelmsford Rd. Two others mentioned In the same connection said they would not oppose Gates.

A Ralph Eck-berg. 185 Shoreham said he would be a candidate only if Gates declined to run for another term. Donald S. Westfall, 371 Antlers aid he knew nothing about the matter and had no intention of running under any circumstances. Anderson and others interviewed said the opposition to Gates was based only on the thought that a successor should be chosen who has children in the Brighton school.

Gates, 3C Hollywood a Kodak executive, has been a member of the Board since 1936, according to Mrs. Letitia S. Mile3, member and secretary of the board. Present Member Gates was out of town yesterday, but was expected back today. Fel-lowmembers of the board assumed he would be a candidate for reelection to a three-year term.

Other members of the board are Arnold B. Swift. 61 Highland prin- cipal of Jefferson High School, Rochester; Mrs. Miles, Schuyler C. Wells, trust officer for the Security Trust Company, and L.

Dudley Field, president of the Defender Photo Supply Company. Only taxpayers of the district may vote at the July 11 meeting, to be held at Brighton High School. Swift is the only member of the present board who has children in the Brighton school. Meanwhile, Wells, who is handling the matter for the board, said It was unlikely the proposition to sell a parcel of school district property to the town for a town building would be ready for presentation to district voters on the night fo the annual meeting. A special meeting will be called if the proposition takes concrete form, he said.

To Sell Tract The board proposes to sell a tract with a 300 foot frontage in Monroe Avenue, 250 feet deep and lying between the drainage creek and the east boundary or Surgenor property, to the town for approximately $6,500. The board stipulates that the town building to be erected on the site shall be in conformance with the Brighton High School architecture. It is the intention of the School Board that the extensive tract occupied by the high school and union school shall be In the nature of a Brighton civic center, it was said. Concerning the proposition, James C. O'Brien, Republican town leader, said: "The Town Board ha been considering various site for the postwar construction of a town building, since present quarters obviously are inadequate.

One of the sites was the School Board's. No decision has been reached. Before any plans are concluded there must be a referendum to the people of the town."

McCarthy, area War Manpower director, reported yesterday after a series of out-of-town meetings. McCarthy, who spoke at a joint labor and management meeting in Ithaca Friday night, said nowhere had he met resistance to the plan, which bans hiring of males at the gate and which establishes labor ceilings for all types of industry.

Meetings are scheduled for Tuesday night at Newark and Thursday at Dansville. While gate hiring will be prohibited indefinitely, though only for 30 days in top priority plants, there is no ban in Interviewing at the gate, McCarthy pointed out yesterday. If an employer interviews a man and finds him satisfactory, he must request that the USES give him permission to hire the man, if labor ceiling limit '41 QUICK Special Sedanette. '41 OLDS.

Well-Cooked Meals Scout mothers would have been amazed by the neat interiors of the tents and well-cooked meals and the Army might have picked up a pointer or two on mobile cooking equipment.

"I'm chief bottlewasher and handywoman around the place," Mrs. Weis said. "Jane here is in it up to her elbows, too." Mrs. Weis and Mrs. Todd came to Chicago early in the week.

Their main job has been to usher delegates to Dewey's campaign managers. As the delegates call their names are recorded. The women get a laugh when the delegates, who ant to be sure that Governor Dewey knows they are with him, check the spelling of their names. "Don't forget my intitlals," the delegates admonish the women.

The problem solution is a handbook, prepared in Rochester by the area War Manpower Commission at the suggestion of D. Thomas At-terbury, labor consultant of the Association of New York State Can-ners, which explains in German language the how and why of American pea-canning methods. The manual consists of a series of job instruction sheets, each with three headings, "Arbeitsfolge," "Vorscriften" and "Erklarungen," which to the canning factory foreman means, "important stops," "key points" and "reasons why." Here and there are sketches to touch up the important "Vorschrif-en," in which the prisoner is reminded not to be careless in handling his pitchfork (pointed at the breeches of anothe PW in the illustration); not to stack cartons too high lest he get a bump on the head from a toppler, and not to get his fingers in the path of a moving belt. As the season progresses additional worksheets on handling corn, tomatoes, apples, will be added to the handbook, which now takes the German laborer all through the steps of packing peas from feeding the pea viner to strapping off cans of the packed product for shipping.

The book already has atttracted national attention, for the War Manpower Commission in Washington has ordered copies and can-ners in other states are making inquiries. Mrs. Anna M. Rosenberg, regional director of the WMC, read it and sent congratulations to Atterbury for the idea. Armin Paul of the local WMC office contributed the German translations and the illustrations were skteched by Lionel Livingston, Madison High School teacher whose son died as a German prisoner a few months ago.

The curriculum laboratory of the Board of Education, directed by Assistant Superintendent of School Verne A. Bird, handled the publication.
