Towns participating m the pool cqnmbute, through pa•ng their premiums, to a fund of public momes used to jointly purchase habdltity insurance. In- joining the -group, towns also pool their risks, add must agree to. certain standards of risk management so that one town's mismanagement does not t.hreatcn to damage all the other mcmbcrs. CIRMA is a non-profit service of the Connct•.ut Conlcrcn•c of Munt¢ipahtlcs, which admlmstcrs the risk pool programs Bccausc It pays no Adopt the Arts town. There were detailed specifics in the request (see story on page one), but the main issue here bo•qs down to whcthcr or not the arts council should become an officially sanctioned •nd funded town organization. If the town grants the arts council its request. that's basically what will happen. The Southington Arts Council has been around since 1982 and has scraped by on a 'bottom of the barrel' budget throughout its existence. It has done so while providing a variety of cultural events, usually at no charge, m an audience which might otherwise not have had the chance to view such performances. The council has presented outdoor lawn concerts, dance shows, art shows and symphony conccns, just to name a few. It has given res,dents here the chance to learn about many new art forms, and •t has expaneded many people's horizons. It has done all thrs, up to now, on a shoestring budget. At times, council officials have wondered if the group could go on much longer without some type of funding. Now, the group has line', and that by donating money to the arts council the town would be insuring that culture survives and grows here in town. It seems almost vital that Southmgton finally take a step toward promoting culture. The arts group also has made a request for space in the Historical Centerwhen the V•lttng Nurse Associationmoves to]ts npw location on Mcriden Avenue. However, Town Manager John Weichsel has indicated the Welfare Department may be moving there. This does not make sense. The Welfare. Department is a town agency and should remain in the Town Hall, To put the department m a building with the Historical Society and the Arts and Crafts Association cannot be j UStlfled. That would be hke putting the Water Department m w•th the Barnes Museum. It, too, rs a town building, and it has space available It would make more sense to put thc arts council in the Historical Center basement The Southlngton Arts Council has given to the town for quite a while now. It certainly scorns about umc that the town give solncthlng to the Southmgton Arts Councd A posted honor Not so very long ago, a group of town residcnts got together and, through volunteenng their se.rv•ces, formed a council to promote tourism m Southlngton. Their task was a rather simple one, to let those people from out of town learn what a great place we have hem. After many mcctmgs and a lot of hard work, an interesting idea came about. It was a combination of progressive planning and a throwback to those simplcr days of long ago. The m•,,olutionary idca which sprang up was to promote the Town of Southmgton pictorially, through the usc of post cards. Although this had bccn donc many, many years ago, there had bccn no similiar cffort in mccnt times. The decision was made to adopt this idea, and today it is reality. Just recently, a second series of South. ington post cards wcre made available to the public. One of the nicest things out this is that the post cards am free, because the SouthingtonTourism Commission had the foresight to fund the post card project with grant money availablc to such groups. The Central Coanceticut Tourism District helped make the post cards a reality. Now, thanks to the commission's determination and cleverness, town residents have a way to "spread the news" about Southington for only the cost of a postage stamp! And •e scenes on the post cards truly do show the glory of the town, from pictures of the tustofic town green to the apple orchards which have helped put Southington, New England's little apple, on the map. The latest group of post cards also shows the Barnes Museum, one of the more noteworthy and historical attractions in town, the modem-day public library and a variety of scenic areas throughout town. Those on the Southlngton Tourism Commission should be proud of the way their project has turned out, as should the general public. Those on the commission have made it a pleasure foreveryone to promote Southington and its scenic wonders. We urge those in.town to pick up the no cost post cards and have some fun by sending them to friends and family members across the country. The cards are available at the Chamber of Commerce office, the town managers office in town hall, some restaurants, the Barnes Museum, local motels and at the New Britain office of the Central Connecticut Tourism District. So Southington, celebrate yourself! What bettcr way to do so than by sending scemc pecks of our town to others throughout the world. Our thanks to the local tourism commission for giving those in our town the chance to have some simple, hometown fun.

O'Neill's victor) over Tob) Moffctt at the Democratic couvclttlOll was one of the major triumphs ola 20year political career. It s•gu,llcd to the Repubhcans that O'Nedl •lll bc hard to beat in November. O'Neill's 1,098-250 d•lcgatc tnumph means that there wdl be no primary for the Democratic gubcrn,ltorlal nomination. It means also the O'.Nctll can take a vacation until the GOP comes up With a nolnlnee. Tile govcnlor may have to wait untd Scptcmbcr iI the GOP candidatcs choose, as expected, to battle it out in a pnma•3'. By knocking out Moffett, O'Ncdl may very well have defeated the toughest opponent that he wdt lace this )'car The governor's organlzauon d•d • hat it had to do to stop Mol fctt short ot 270 delegates needed tn lorcc a mary; for the trine bcmg that organization has put Mol fctt's pohttcal future on ice. A year ago, few pohucal obscn.c•s thought that O'Neill would bc ahlc to prevent Moffett from getting the 20 percent support. Moffett, himscl[, scollcd at the question Of the 20 pcrcnt thickhold wllcn questioned by tcpo•tct,, His people were sure, and O'Neill's were concerned. In the end, the halfle proved to Ix" mtcnsc and bitter Now that it i,• over, Moffett may end up supporting the governor -- or he may not. It probably makes little difference For now, it pubhcans, but hc made it difficult for Moffctt to score on the issues. So Moffctt hoped to pick up delegate votes following the developments in the Waterbury primary, and allegations conceming irregularities in abscntcc ballots. But the Waterbury allcgations didn't help Moffett at the convention. On the floor of the convention, too, O'Neill p.re,vatled. His forces mustered the political muscle needed to keep delegates in line. So O'Nclll has thwancd the efforts of a popular formed congressman -- a candidate who gave U.S. Sen. Lowell Wc•cker StlffopposltlOn in 1982. Moffelt, a master at getting media attention, was somcone to take seriously. So it would bc wrong to minimize O'Neill's success at the convention; O'Neill's win over Moffctt demonstrates that the govcmor Is more than prepared to battle anyone the Republicans choose to throw at him. Your state representatives matters only that Molfctt gave the O'Neill people a scare, but that close doesn't count in pohtlcs O'Nclll'uscd the pov, cr of the incumbency to ra•sc the lunds nccdcd to lucl his campa{gn w•th a booming state ccnnomy, it wa,, also th fficull for Molfctt to locus pubhc attention on ISSUES.
