This Day In History: 1967-02-09

The Township Committee retained its attorney John W. Leyden to represent it in the lawsuit brought by Committeeman Patrick Malone to regain his seat on the Planning Board.  Leyden maintained that Malone had been appointed to fill the vacancy left when May John Brennan became Mayor in 1966.  Mr. Malone has contended that he was appointed to a full three-year term and should not have been replaced after a year.
