TV Executive Comments on CATY Delay in Lenox
Lenox officials receive a letter from William L. Putnam, president of Springfield Television Broadcasting Corp. He says CATY service delays hinge on the franchise holder agreeing to FCC carriage rules and nonduplication of programming. Cable head John W. P. Mooney calls Putnam’s letter a lie. Industrial arts teacher Bart Natoli hired at Lenox Memorial High School to replace Bjorn Jenssen. Natoli will also coach Jayvee baseball. Salary hikes approved for Supt. Raymond L. Trabold and Miss Lane Fuller.

State Approves Ted's Mobile Home Park Expansion
In Dalton the state Department of Public Health sanitary engineer Angelo Tantosca sent written approval for expanding Ted's Mobile Home Park on Wahconah Falls Road from 21 to 31 spaces. Selectman Thomas J Callahan said Santosca gave verbal approval this week. The project, run by Mr and Mrs Ronald Ted Filkins of 222 East Housatonic St, faced a delay since more than three trailer spaces bring the site under state jurisdiction requiring an inspector's permit. Expansion planned to be ready by Aug 1 with first mobile home on site. A separate item notes a car fire in Hinsdale on Route 8, minor damage, quickly extinguished. Also, a Wahconah Country Club golf clinic runs Saturdays at 10, taught by Thomas Toski.
