Editor Denies Phoenix Ties to Circulars Upholding Sidewalks
The Phoenix editor proves no involvement with yesterday's Republican Town Committee circulars as he has been ill at home.

The piece endorses maintaining or increasing funding, including 1500 for John Post Reynolds school surrounds and 3000 for general sidewalks.
