There will be no new units added to the number for this year but the committee hopes] to add more units next year if sufficient funds are receiv-| ed. They will appear from the intersection of Jacob! and East Main Street to the railroad crossing on West Main Street. When the decor- ations were first erected, several wooden candy cane units were used to keep down the expense of the pro- ject. Throughout the past years, they have been re-| placed by the candle units. No cane units will be used this year, Other suggestions made by the Monday night group include placing more candle units along Main Street and following this phase of the project, begin with ‘across the street” decorations in the future. ® - ‘RECONSTRUCTION IS HALTED Reconstruction of the four Birchland Avenue Spr ngfield Rd. and Fairview Street, has been temporarily stopped until the state department] has checked the work to be| completed.
