are enlisting the cooperation of
all local merchants and business

eliminate unnecessary lights.
As a guide to energy con-servation,
some of which could be
adopted by all Lynbrook
residents, Mayor Becker stressed
the following check list for ef-ficient
energy management.
• Turn off all unnecessary lights
in storage areas and unoc-cupied
spaces, and maintain
minimum lighting levels
during non-operating hours.
• Decorative, window display
and advertising lighting should
be reduced to a minimum level
during business hours and
should be turned off at the close
of business.
• Maintain outdoor lighting only
at levels and during periods
essential to safety, iden-tification
and security.
• Thermostats in business
establishments should be
reduced to 55' after business
hours and a maximum of 68°
during the work day.
• Insulate wherever possible.
Mayor Becker stressed that
energy conservation is the
responsibility of every resident in
Lynbrook, and he urged all home
owners, business establishments,
apartment house tenants and all
others to exert a continuing effort
to follow the simple steps outlined
above in order to realize a very
substantial saving in one of our

ballplayers have worn a Mur-Lee
uniform, with 47 signing
profes.siona] contracts and three

the New York Yankees and
Oakland Athletics.

for admittance into the Mur-Lee
Hall of Fame are that ball player
must satisfy several
qualifications including having

active competition for at least
