To Run For School Board
Robert S. Campbell, a Special
Representative with The Coca-
Cola Company, has announced
his candidacy for the Board of
Education. Mr. Campbell has
resided in Farmingdale for al­most
six years.
Mr. Campbell. firmly believes
that the Farmingdale Board of
Education requires individuals
with experience - experience to
deal with the educational pro­blems
of the District, together
with sufficient business experi­ence
to handle the financial pro­blems
of the District. Let us
understand that the " nine cents"
decrease in the School Tax Rate
was only accomplished by the
creation of the New York State
Sales Tax.

Army in the Mediterranean and
European Theatres of Operation
during World War n. He at­tended
New York University and
prior to his employment with
Coca- Cola he spent several years

has four children. Two of his
children attend elementary
school in the District. He re­sides
at 20 Leanore Drive, So.
Farmingdale.
Martin Dolnick, a local busi­ness
executive, has announced
his candidacy for the Board of
Education. Mr. Dolnick, a re­sident
of Farmingdale for over
six years, believes that in order
to serve as a School Board Trus­tee
in a school district with a
budget of almost thirteen million
dollars an individual must pos­sess
a keen understanding of the
educational requirements of the
students in the District and also
must possess a formidable busi­ness
background which is neces­sary
to cope with the many finan­cial
problems in our District.
Mr. Dolnick is Sales Manager
of one of the foremost ladies
apparel companies in the East.
An alumnus of City College, he
served in the United States Army
during the Korean conflict.
Mr. Dolnick is married and has
three children. Two of his chil­dren
attend East Memorial Ele­mentary
School. He resides at

Anelli Denounces CTA
Richard C. Anelli, candidate
for District # 22 Board of Ed­ucation
denounced the Classroom
Teachers Association this week.
" Unionization of a group of
professional people is a serious
threat which would mean the
emergence of a cold impersonal
creature lacking all those essent­ial
ingredients which are part of
the make up of a teacher and all
of which are creative of that im­age
which has so impressed chil­dren
through the years," Anelli
said. The teaching profession is
an area where unions do not be­long.
" I exhort Mr. Lubell and
the CTA to muffle the monim-ous
rumblings of unionism and
to continue to offer the children

Favor Pool- Park
90 representatives from groups in South Farm­ingdale,
North Massapequa and Farmingdale at­tended
the public forum on the proposed park dis­trict
Wednesday night at Woodward Parkway. The'
forum was chaired by Town of Oyster Bay Council- •
man Carl Grunewald. Also on the platform was
Village of Farmingdale Trustee Willis Carman Jr.
About 85% of the audience were strongly in favor
of a joint Village and Town of Oyster Bay pool and
park project. Those who were not in favor were cal­led
" narrow minded and out of touch with the times,"
by some members of the audience.
Jean Hope of the Farmingdale
Council of PTA's submitted the
results of a survey of 921 res­ponses
mainly in/ avor of the joint
complex.
Don Phelan, President of the
Viceroy Civic Association stated
that his group was strongly in
favor of the Town purchasing the
entire 16 acre tract, even if they
left complete development for a
latter date.
The North Massapequa Civic
Association indicated through
their survey that the majority fa­vored
a swimming pool, but not
necessarily a park.
A number of village residents
were in favor of joining with the
town. William Wesche, former
Village Clerk said that the Vill­age
was conducting their own sur­vey
of land.
According to Gruenwald, an
answer from the village fathers
will be necessary in the near fu­ture.
Town of Oyster Bay Councilman A. Carl Grunewald, Chairman of the Town Board's
Standing Committee on Parks and Recreation, reviews some of the most popular
features of the Bethpage Community Park Plan which have been proposed for a
similar facility to serve the Farmingdale area. Checking the plan are ( 1. to r.)

Pepartment; Councilman Edmund A. Ocker, an initiator of the Park- Pool Concept
and Jack Goor, President of the Farmingdale Youth Council.
