Mr. Cavaco scored a decisive victory over David Viera this week in the election to replace Carl Bragg on the Seekonk Board of Selectmen. Ms. Bragg hasn?t said why she stepped down, but that point is now irrelevant. This town wants people on the board who truly want to be there. It?s clear that Mr. Cavaco wanted this seat badly, and he deserves it. http://www.eastbayri.com./detail/77179.html Wed, 31 Dec 1969 07:00:00 EST http://www.eastbayri.com./detail/77174.html It seems clear that new Superintendent Mario Cirillo had this job locked up from the beginning. Since former Superintendent Jacqueline Forbes left on August 4, Mr. Cirillo has been flying solo as interim superintendent. The majority of the East Providence School Committee said they wanted some time to watch their new hire and see how he fit into the department. http://www.eastbayri.com./detail/77174.html Wed, 31 Dec 1969 07:00:00 EST
