Since Hal- loween, October 31, 1972, three very serious house fires have oc- curred, with a total loss of five lives. Steven and Paul Bevins, two sons of Mrs, Patricia Bevins of 343 LaOrande Avenue, were the latest victims. The two died in » fire at their home in the early hours of Sunday morning. Three other lives were lost on Halloween when a fire at the Hooper home, 145 LaGrande, not far from the Bevins home, claimed the lives of Mrs, Chris- tine Hooper and her two youngs- ters. In January, a fire gutted the Interior of the Robert Geers' home on Barns Way, causing ex- tensive damage but no personal injury. According to Fanwood Fire Chief Henry Piekarski, the fire at the Bevins home apparently started In a couch in the living room. The alarm was turned in at 1:47 a.m. and, according to Piekarski, once firemen arrived ai the scene, they did a "tre- mendous job" and had the fire out within about five minutes. Damage was confined to the liv- ing room primarily, he said, and was mainly due to smoke and water. Steven Bevins, 16, and Paul Bevins, 4, apparently died of smoke inhalation. They were taken co Muh]enL>erg Hospital, Their mother, Patricia Bevins, was also taken to Muhlenberg and was In intensive care unit initially, She has since been released from intensive care. There is absolutely no connec- tion between the two fires ac- cording to the fire chief, It is an unfortunate coincidence that they have occurred within such a short time, but arson has been ruled out In each of the three cases, Piekarski said. Although there was little dam- age from fire, the smoke was heavy and firemen uied air packs when they entered the home. Mrs. Bevins and Paul were in a first floor bedroom and Steven was in a rear first floor bedroom. An- other occupant of the house, John B, Case, a 21-year old boarder, was able to exit from the home from an upstairs window. He had smelled smoke, exited bythe window, went down a tree and . ran to a neighboring home to summon help. Just shortly before the fire alarm was turned in for the Bevins fire, the'Fanwood police and Rescue Squad had been sum- moned to assist at the scene of a traffic accident at Martina and Midway Avenues, where 22- month old Alissa Sinha was killed. Therefore, the Scotch Plains po- lice and Rescue Squad units were called for backup help and aided the Fanwood forces at the scene of the house fire and in taking victims to the hospital. Steven Bavins was a sophomore at Scotch Plains-Fanwood High School, In earlier years he had been a student at LaGrande School and Park Junior High School, and was once a member of Boy Scout Troop 35. Tha children are survived by their mother, and by their father, Bruce Bevins of Long Branch, and by a sister, Cindy Lee Be- vins, who recently moved to Bal- timore. They are also survived by their paternal grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. D.C, Bevins of Flo- rida, The boys" parents were sep- arated. Day Care Center To Open Here Next Month Quality day care has been a long-time goal of a small group of local citizens, who have been working quietly toward the realization of that goal in the form of a- day care center for the Scotch Plains - Fanwood community, Their dream comes true with the opening of such a facility here next month. -^- ^-- -^ --- --*—--- ^-' ------ - St. John the Baptist Church on Morse Avenue in Scotch Plains will be the site of the day care operation, which is planned to accommodate an ultimate enroll- ment of 20 children. The accom- modations have been offered by St. John's, while the day care committee will pay for utilities. The children who attend the day care center will come pri- marily from the Scotch Flains- Fanwood community. Local ap- plications will receive priority. Children will be provided with a full day, nursery school type of operation with a professional staff assisted by local volunteers. Since the center will receive federal funding under Title 4A, Social Security administration, a certain percentage of the child- ren must come from families with a total income below $9,800 per year, or $820 per month. What is day care and how does it differ from regular nursery school? Roberta Semer, Vice President of the Scotch Plalns- Fanwood Day Care Center, Inc., detailed a typical day at the center, which will be open five days a week, SO weeks a year. Children will begin to arrive around 7; 30 a.m. daily, and those who have not yet had breakfast at home will be given breakfast at the center, A period of free time will occupy the children until around 9a,m,, when the nur- sery program begins. The morn- ing hours will include time for arts and crafts projects, story time, a musical program, a break for toileting and snacks, a short rest period and outdoor play in moderate weather. A hot, nourishing lunch will be served daily, Mrs. Semer pointed out. It will be followed by a sleeping time, more stories, out- door play with emphasis on nature studies and nature walks, after- noon toileting and snack time.

Council IntroducesTopsoil Storage Law

The Township Council of Scotch Plains Introduced legislation whichwould establish new rules and regulations, including licensing, forthe transportation and handling of dirt and topsoil. The Mayor,William Kitsz, who is associated with a family nursery business,

Ueft the council chambers, as he has absented himself in convarsa-tions which have led to the introduction of the legislation, In turning .over the meeting temporarily to deputy mayor Walter Grote, Kitszsaid his actions were to avoid any possible conflict of Interest.

The ordinance, which will besubject to a February 20 publichearing, seta forth specific con-ditions under which such busin-esses and/or conditions mayexist. No property owner shallpermit upon his property unpaek-aged dirt, topi oil, or other earthmaterial not Intended for the im-provement of that property but In-stead deposited there for redis-posal and processing, unless suchproperty owner meet the fol-lowing conditions;

1, Application must be madeto the Township Clerk for a l i -cense or permit, to cost $50annually. The application' muatbe accompanied by a sketch show-ing lay-out of proposed operation,

2, No unpaekaged dirt, tepsoll,or earth is to occupy more than25 percent of the vacant landarea of the property in question.The percentage measurement r e -fers to the base of a pile of top-soil or earth.

3, Sifting, screening, or otherprocessing of such materials isprohibited within 100 feet of anyneighboring dwelling or buildingoccupied by people.

4, Dirt piles cannot be storedwithin ten feet of side or rearproperty lines or within 25 feetof any front lines, and no moundor pile may extend over ten feethigh from sidewalk level,

5« The applicant is responsi-ble for on-slte drainage, to avoidrun-off water or mud onto neigh-boring properties or municipalroads, sidewalks, etc.

The proposed ordinance wouldcarry with it a fine of not lessthan $5 or more than $200, or 30days imprisonment or both,

A second new ordinance, alsosubject to a February 20 hearing,would appropriate $4,000 forthree pieces of recreation com-mission equipment, including atruckster, ride-on mower, andOlympia spreader.

The Council voted to send theproposed zoning ordinance re -vision back to the Planning Boardwith a recommendation that theplanners consider Incorporationof public comment and sug-gestions received at a publichearing, as well as commentsfrom the Union County PlanningBoard. The Council Itself rec-ommended to the Planning Boardthat consideration he given torecommendations that require-ments for site plan review bemore explicit in that such re-views shall not be required forone and two-family residences.

Raymond Moore of 1 ManltouWay represented his neighbor-hood as spokesman during thepublic hearing on expansion of theRaritan Road pumping station,Moore asked that particular carebe given to aesthetic considera-tions, including landscaping andbuffer screening of the stationfrom adjacent properties,

The Council approved the ord-inance for the expanded pumpingfacility, which legislation appro-priates $13,000 from capital im-provement and $247,000 in publicimprovement bonds,

Thomas DeLuca of Jacobs Lanefeels the existing pumping sta-tion did not aerve the taxpayersfor a long enough period, ai|dquestioned whether consultingengineers advised both on theexisting station and the forthcom-ing .

Kitz emphasized that it was nota question of the present facilitywearing out, but a need for ex-pansion.

An ordinance which would haveprohibited parking on a portion ofWestfield Avenue was withdrawn,

It has been determined thatsuch legislation is unnecessary,since the police chief has the au-thority to control parking in frontof public buildings. The ordin-ance would have dealt with thearea In front of St, Bartho-lomew's,

In Our OpinionCommunity Assets

A weekend of misfortune, bringing death to threeand homelessness to two families, befell the ScotchPlains-Fanwood community In recent days. In ad-dition to these most serious tragedies, the communitywas also plagued with heavy rains which hit the en-tire metropolitan area, bringing what is becoming al-most a habit - flooded roads and basements.

We see these days as a time for all families toremember the truly peat service and the highdegree of selfless dedication which local policeand volunteer firemen and Rescues Squad memberscontribute to their fellow citizens. If one adds upthe number of times, In just a single week, thatthese men have been called out for long nnd dan-gerous hours of grueling work just to insure safelive? for all of us, there are nc>t words enough toexpress appreciation.

The volunteers particularly deserve thanks andcomplete and generous community support, These mennot only fight fires, pump basements, and assist ac-cident victims at all hours of thadayand night withoutpay. They also try, in between times, to hold downjobs, run businesses, and raise families - the taskswhich seem to take the rest of us ALL of our time.

February, 1973

The Trees Stand Wistful in the Square,Wearing a Half-Expectant Air:

Anne Lawler

February is filled with memorable dates and anni-versaries pertaining to American history, (ManyRoman Catholic, Greek or Episcopalian church mem-bers remember the 1st as the day of the Festival ofSt. Bridget, the 2nd as Candlemas - also known inthe U.S. as Ground Hog Day.)

On the 5th, In 1631, Roger Williams, one of thefamous defenders of religious freedom in the nation,arrived In Boston from England, The 8th is the an-niversary of the chartering of the Boy Scouts —dating from 1910.

On the 9th, In 1773, William Henry Harrison, 9thPresident, was born in Charles County, Virginia, theson of one of the signers of the Declaration of In-dependence. On the 10th, in Paris In 1S9S, the UnitedStates concluded a somewhat controversial peacetreaty with Spain after defeating the Spanish, throughwhich this country took over the Philippine Islands,Guam and Puerto Rico, and gained freedom for Cuba,

Tampa's famous Gasparilla Carnival falls in earlyFebruary and Thomas Edison's birthday anniversaryfalls on the 11th dating from 1547 (Milan, Ohio),Edison, of Dutch and Scottish ancestry, spent his lastyears in Florida.

Abraham Lincoln's birthday falls on the 12th,dating from 1S09. The Civil War President, amongthe most venerated of all Americans, was of Englishancestry and born in Hardln County, Kentucky, In alog cabin. Georgia Day — the anniversary of thelanding of James Oglethorpe at Savannah in 1733also falls on the 12th. Tne 14th is St. Vallentlne'sDay, as well as Arizona Admission Day — datingfrom 1012 when Arizona became a state.

On the. 22nd. in 1732, the first President of theU,b., George Washington, was born in WestmorelandCounty, Virginia. On the 28th, the first Railroad waschartered.

Aid Day CareAfter two years of planning, an ambitious committee

of concerned people have finalized plans for initiationof a day care facility in our midst. Beyond a doubt,such an offering is a definite asset to the community,for in our midst there are undoubtedly numerousfamilies who will need the able child care which thecenter will provide.

Needless to say, funding is required . , , , isn'tit always? But in addition the committee needsbodies to help in the day to day operation. Any adultwho has been involved with school children and/orpreschoolers in a cooperative nursery school is wellaware of the fur. and rewards which such activitybrings. Helping and enjoying young children cantruly brighten a day, particularly for those with extrahours on their hands or grown families.

We'd hope that many volunteers will be forthcomingto assist in a program which is long overdue andmost welcome in Scotch Plains-Fanwood,

GEORGE M. MAGEEChairman Railroad Com.

Dear Sir-I saw with interest the

notice In the paper thatthe Board would like tohear from the public sug-gested names for the schoolbeing built on Willow Ave-nue. I have some thoughtsin that area 1 would liketo express to the Board,

As much as practical acommunity should honor itsheritage by its actions.This community more thanalmost any other com-munity our size owes muchof its recent heritage andcurrent strenph to a sin-gle small village, the vil-lage of Montazzolesi in It-aly. A great number of our

citizens or their parentsemigrated from Montaz-zolesi and settled on thenorthside of Scotch Plains,Their children and grand-children have grown-upin this community, verymany of them attendedSchool 1.

Therefore to acknow-ledge our debit to theseemigrants and honor theircontribution to the heritageof this community I sug-gest that the building onWillow Avenue that is toreplace School 1 be namedthe Montazzolesi School.

Very truly yours,LAWRENCE NEWCOMB

To the Editor:Now that America's cos-

tly military involvement inVietnam is finally ending,is It unreasonable for tax-payers to expect a cut Inthe massive military bud-get?

I think that an In-dignant response to Presi-dent Nixon's proposed en-largement of the militarybudget Is completely ap-propriate. In his effortto keep a celling on govern-ment spending, he is strik-ing at more than 100 peace-ful domestic programs —while military targets arebeing avoided. Ths Presi-dent says he does not wantto "pamper" the Americanpeople; well, an awful lotof American people don'twant the military es-tablishment to be pam-pered.

Sincerely,KAREN A. LEVY

They wre hauled from office to office on long, lowflatbed trucks, five volumes to each Congressmanranging in size from a 71-page summary to a 1,120-page book the size of the New York City telephonedirectory, bound in dark blue and lettered, appro-priately, In gold — "The Budget of the UnitedStates Government, Fiscal Year 1974,"

It is, beyond a shadow of a doubt, the most importantsingle publication that will enter Room 1513 Long-worth, or any other Congressional office, this year.

By this time, you're no doubt familiar with thebroad outlines of the President's budget- spending upfrom an estimated $250 billion this year to $268billion for the year beginning July 1; dozens of sub-stantial reductions in specific programs; virtually nonew programs proposed; an increase of more than$4 billion in military spending;' but, overall, a hold-the-llnt, non-inflationary, no-new-taxes budget.

The Federal Budget, however, is much more thandollars -and-cents accounting of past, present andfuture government revenues and expenditures.

It's nothing less than the Government's (the Exe-cutive Branch, at this early stage) plan for the fu-ture.

Both in its direct effects and in its underlyingassumptions, the Budget represents the Administra-tion's judgement of the direction which social andeconomic policy should follow. It allocates human andmaterial resources. It defines. In effect, what thepublic sector will be and what the private sectorwill be, And it influences all kinds of ostensiblyprivate decisions; business Investment, hospital lo-cation, the availability of housing, education, medi-cal care, and jobs, as well as the prices we pay formost products and services.

There won't be many dull moments in this firstsession of the 93rd Congress, nor much time on ourhands. Among other things, the President proposesto: abolish the billion-dollar Emergency Employmentprogram of public service jobs for hardcore unem-ployed; dismantle and scale down the anti-povertyprogram: transfer and downgrade the White HouseOffice of Consumer Affairs; close down the Of-fice of Science and Technology and the National Aero-nautics and Space Council; terminate Federal aid forhospital construction; stop new commitments for hous-ing subsidies for low and middle-income families;abolish the farm conservation program* and sharplyreduce funds for such programs as the special milkprogram for school children. Model Cities, communitydevelopment, education, manpower training, farmprice supports and veterans' benefits.

All told, the Budget schedules major spending cutsfor 113 Individual programs, principally of the socialservices variety. While It proposes to consolidateabout 70 of these programs in four broad-purpose,few-strings -attached special revenue sharing pro-grams -- in the areas of education, urban communitydevelopment, manpower training, and law enforce-ment —• available funds, in most cases, will be sub-stantially reduced and critics fear the time lag inestablishing special revenue sharing (assuming Con-gress agrees) will seriously disrupt the continuity ofImportant programs at the local level.

Moreover, the Budget is almost as notable for whatit omits. Absent from its thousands of pages, forinstance, Is any mention of welfare reform, whichI strongly advocated during my campaign for Con-gressman and which was once one of the President'smost heralded objectives. Similarly, no funds are bud-geted for tax rellef-for homeowners burdened withhigh property taxes, nor for a national health Insur-ance program, though the President Indicates he'sstill in favor of It,

Obviously, there is much to argue about In theAdministration Budget. Many special interests arethreatened. Some real needs are downgraded. Con-versely, such Presidential objectives as restraininginflation, keeping the lid on taxes, eliminating bur-eaucratic red tape, and bringing governmental de-cisions closer to home will be — and should be «widely svelcomed,

It is a very significant document.And this year, especially, the Federal Budget Is also

a very controversial document, TIME Magazine termsit the President's "Call to Counter-Revolution."The president, also using military terminology, an-nounces the beginning of "the battle of the budget."And eager recruits hasten to assemble on each sideof the battle, some hailing the President's mastery ofFederal spending, others condemning his Insensltivityto human needs.

At this point, either judgment would seem to bepremature. The Budget is so vast and the issues itraises are so complex that the job of deciding whatis acceptable or unacceptable in the Budget will taxto the utmost the capabilities of every Congressman.,

A Combination OfDisasters Keep Police,Firemen Hopping

While many a citizen enjoyed the clear weather over Lhn week-end, rejoicing in moderate temperatures and no rain, ih«i manypublic safety people in Scotch Plains and Fanwood ware pickingup the pieces, just about done in by a three-day period of ail kindsof horrors - both natural and man-made, A most unusual combina-tion of tragedies called for a monumental effort on the part of fire-men, police, and Rescue Squad personnel in both towns.

The occurances started earlyThursday morning, February 1,when an early morningf ire ragedthrough abulldingat401 Park Av-enue, causing extensive damageand leaving two families home-less. Firemen from ScotchPlains, assisted by fellow fire-fighters from Fanwood and West-field spent approximately 6-1/2hours on duty at the fire onThursday morning, and an ad-ditional 3-1/2 hours afterwardwashing hoses, repacking them,refilling air tanks, drying gearand cleaning equipment.

Scotch Plains police also putin lengthy hours assisting atthe fire.

The rest was not for long,however, for the Scotch Plainspolice and fire departments werealerted around 1:50 p.m. on Fri-day to expect flooding from theGreen Brook, The warnlngcamefrom the Green Brook flood alarmsetup, and according to ScotchPlains Police Chief Joseph Po-wers, provided the foresvarningwhich enabled police to Insti-tute the necessary activities toprepare to divert traffic in flood-prone areas on Route 22, Thelocal police contacted state high-way department personnel, andboth east and west bound lanesof the highway were barricadedIn advance of the subsequentfloods, preventing drivers frombecoming innundated as they havein the past.

The rams came, In great vol-ume, and, according to police re-ports, there was flooding neces-sitating barricading of roads InWestfield Road, Hetfield in thevicinity of Brwokside Park, WestBroad, Raritan Road, andLamberts Mill Road,

powers said police had to workovertime to clear a "monumentaltraffic jam" which went on untilabout 8 p.m.

Par k Avenue in the vicinity ofthe Route 22 overpass was com-pletely impassible, with flood-ing at the foot of the overpass inthe vicinity of Snuffy's and BergAgency,

By 7 D.m,, rhe volunteer fire-men in Scotch Plains were onceagain upand out, this time to pumpbasements. They worked at theflooded homes from 7 p.m. until2:15 a.m. on Saturday morning.Only three homes had water overfour feet deep, Chief HarryMes-semer said. The remainder hadminor flooding of about a foot indepth.

Flooding did not represent toomuch of a problem in Fanwood,where officials noted that the onlystreet closed was North Avenuebetween Martine and Forest Road~ a one-block stretch. Therewas minor street flooding else-where In the borough ", and theborough Public Works Depart-ment pumped water from severalbasements.

Tragedy struck twice in Fan-wood in the early hours on Sun-day, February 4. At 1:26 a.m.,police and Rescue Squad per-sonnel were summoned for a traf-fic accident at the intersectionof Martine Avenue and Midway

The light ar. the intersectionwas flashing red in the MidwayAvenue direction, as is cus-tomary in the early morninghours.

Scarcely had theMartine-Mld-way accident been called in svhenthe fire headquarters in Fanwoodwas alerted to a fire at 343LaGrande Avenue. That alarmwas received at 1-47 a,m, whenpolice and some of the volunteerpersonnel who serve on the Res-cue Squad as well as on the firedepartment were involved at thetraffic accident.

The fire claimed the lives of16-year old Steven Bevins and his4-year old brother Paul,

Scotch Plains police andRescue Squad were called toassist Fanwood In the fire.

One other will be a De-tective Lieutenant with responsi-bility for the. Detective Bureauand all Investigation activities.The third Lieutenant .will be r e s -ponsible for Administration andwill have primary responsibilityfor training, schools, and avail-able State and Federal funds."Pollitt added that Detective andAdministration Lieutenantswould also be subordinate to theChief but would have no com-mand responsibilities.

Mayor Acts To AllayConcern RegardingFire Hydrants

In response to several citizen inquiries made since the fire atthe corner of ParkAvenueandBartle A venue last Thursday regardingreports that some fire hydrants were not usable Mayor Kitsz is-sued the following statement-

" Many citizens were disturbedby reports that the nearest usa-ble fire hydrant to the fire Thurs-day was near the Westside House,The nearest hydrant to the siteis on Bartle Avenue between thefire site and the Rescue SquadBuilding only a few feet distant.This hydrant was in completeworking order Thursday morn-ing. Unfortunately because of theextremely cold weather Thursdaymorning three hydrants on Parkwere found to be partially fro-zen. I am informed by the FireChief that hydrants are designedto be self-draining when closed sothat they do not freeze in coldweather. This self-drainingfea-ture did not work properly on thethree Park Avenue hydrants, 1am also informed by the FireChief that he is having the Eli-zabethtown Water Co.checkallofhydrants In Scotch Plains. Thewater ' company is also respon-sible for repairing or replacingany hydrants that are not opera-ting properly.

**I would also like to take thisOpportunity " to thank the manypersons and the fire companiesboth our own and from neighbor-ing communities who kept thisvery serious fire from being amuch more tragic occasion. Res-ponding to our call for assistanceunder our mutual aide agreementwere- the Plainfield Fire De-partment with an Aerial Truck;Westfield Fire Department witha Pumper Truck and the FanwoodFire Department remained onStand-by at Scotch Plains Head-quarters in event of other fire.

For The BirdsBy FERRIS SWACKHAMMIR

Dr. Seuss wrote a delightful verse about "Nltches," which hedescribed as small caves where "Nutches" lived. All living thingslive In niches, even we humans. A niche is the relationship of anorganism to a specific physical environment. It is a fragile thing,easily thrown out of balance. Disturbance of a niche often resultsin a species coming to the end of Its evolutionary life.

Perhaps the rarest North American native songbird is the Bach-man's warbler. Research may confirm that it was discovered to-ward the end of its natural evolutionary life, probably, for once,unhastened by man. It appears that its habitat has slowly andnaturally disappeared.

Niches can be closely related. Up North in the eastern spruceforests live five species of warblers. Each has as its domain adifferent part of the tree and Its own manner of taking Insect prey.

Bay-breasted wart.ers move slowly outward from the shady in-terior of the tree.The myrtle'flits from tree to tree near the ground,Blackburnlan warblers frequent the treetops, outward along thelimbs. The Cape May also spends his time in the treetops but worksvertically along the outer edges. Black-throated greens searchmiddle elevations amid dense branches and around new buds. Allfive live at peace with one another, secure in their own niche.

Closely related blackbirds illustrate a similar pattern. Yellow-headed, red-winged and Brawer's blackbirds are all fond of damsel-flies that live out their life cycle close to water, Yellowheadsare the aquatic specialists "and remain around the water all day.Red-wings are good generalists and move to the uplands where theinsects rest after emergence. Brewer's blackbirds have longerlegs and can't move around cattails well. They patrol the openground.

Nature abhors a vacant niche. The tale of Darwin's finches illus-trates this quite well. The fine details of the story are shroudedin the past but the broad outlines seem clear. Sometime broadoutlines seem clear. Sometime before the dawn of recorded his-tory, at least one pair of finches arrived at the Galapagos islands.Perhaps they were blown there by a storm, perhaps the islandswere closer to the mainland when it happened. Today thirteenClosely related species live on the islands, presumably evolvingfrom those original visitors.

There are six species of ground finch. They feed mainly on theground in the arid and transitional zones. Each of the six havebills of different strengths and sizes enabling them to feed on dif-ferent sorts of seeds. The cactus ground finch has forsaken theground for life in the prickly pear tree cactus.

Three tree finches have somewhat parrot-like beaks and habits.The warbler finch has the habits of a warbler, feeding exclusivelyon insects. The vegetarian treefinch feeds almost entirely on plants,

Woodpecksr finches have a niche of their own, living like theirnamesake, except thai, they lack our woodpeckers1 long tongues.The last is the mangrove finch, restricted to the shore zone, Aspecies has developed to fill each niche on the islands.

To Hear Talk

On Alcoholism

The Union County Chapter ofthe Chestnut Hill College Alum-nae Association will featurea discussion by Mrs. TheresaMcGeary, director of the localaffiliate of the National Council <on Alcoholism at its meeting Inthe home of Mrs. JohnT. Greene,16 Robin Road, Fanwood at 8:15p.m. on Wednesday, February 7.

Mrs. McGeary who is a gra-duate of Chestnut Hill Collegewith n degree in teaching alsoholds a master's degree in edu-cation from Seton Hall in re-habilitation counseling and hasspent fourteen years in this fieldof work. The Council on Alco-holism is a national organizationin existence for twenty-eightyears with a total of one hun-dred thirty-six affiliates thr-oughout the country. Mrs, MeGeary states that the local of-fice at 300 North Avenue, West-field was opened three yearsago at the request of the free-holders. The primary goals ofthe council are to educate thecommunity on the true facts of al-cohol and to help the person whoabuses alcohol and also his fam-ily, friends, relatives, and em-ployers , Concepts are three-fold- 1) the.alcoholic is a sickperson 2) the alcoholic can behelped 3) alcoholism is a com-munity problem. In its briefexistence the Union County Di-vision of the National Council onAlcoholism was instrumental inthe opening of an alcoholic clinicat Elizabeth General Hospital andthe establishment of a detoxifi-cation center at Runnels Hospital,

is iuu . t .

Do you know that 'the": freight rates', for 'scrap ironare ,500%"of the rates for virgin 6re7! The En'yirpnmental Protection Agencyprepared ,a: repqrt. for Congress criticizing disparate freight, rates,depletion allowances" and other artificial economic' advantages tousers of virgin materials. The environmental administrator, WilliamRuckelshaus,' has stated-that "THE PRINCIPAL OBSTACLES TORESOURCE RECOVERYARE ECONOMIC AND INSTITUTIONAL, NOTTECHNOLOGICAL," He wants users of secondary (recycled)materials to be able to compete on an equal footing. The report,which spells out this philosophy in specific terms, was not allowedto reach Congress. According to a front page story in the NewYork Times, February 4th, the report has bean held up by the Officeof Management & Budget- "the budget office has no statutory au-thority to suppress agency reports ordered by Congress, but itfrequently exercises such powers — as some Senators noted intestimony last week ~ whenever it disapproves of recommenda-tions by an agency » . , , several of the recommendations would notonly have an impact on the economy, but would also affect power-ful industries."

And Save Money Besides!

President Nixon has frequently stated his advocacy of conserv-ing natural resourses, and in his recent budget message he recom-mended an Increase in environmental protristion expenditures whilerecommending cuts in most other domestic programs. But theNixon Administration will not achieve significant victories in the"Green War" unless there is more willingness to inconvenience thespecial interests that exploit natural resourses. The press hasfrequently played up the tensions between Mr, Ruekelshaus and theWhite House over how much pressure should be applied to pollutingindustries. In accepting reappointment, Mr. Ruckelshaus stated thathe had been assured of a freer hand to deal with environmentalproblems. Let's hope that in the future his recommendations canat least get to Congress.

Ac present many members of the Congress are angry and evenalarmed over President: Nixon's refusal to spend the full |H-billionthat was appropriated for sewage treatment plants. The Presidentvetoed the appropriation as inflationary, and when Congres£ over-rode his veto he declared that he would impound the funds. The billclearly stated that all of the funds were to be spent; Congress fearsthat its constitutional right to control the pursestrings is being ab-rogated by executive fiat. The issue may have to be settled throughthe courts.

The torrential rains of February 2nd crept into a lot of basements,and sump pumps were working hard. Pumps should of course drain tothe outside so that the water will flow into the storm sewers, but thewater company reports that some households pump water into thesanitary sewer connections in the basement because it is more con-venient. Our sewage treatment facilities are terribly overburdened;only a small percentage of the water in our sanitary sewers isactually "sewage." This is largely unavoidable, since tap waterhas nowhere else to go. But water consumers are urged to be con-servative in their use of tap water and to flush away in the toiletonly what must be flushed away. Pumping flood water into the sani-tary sewers is particularly taxing to the system, and can be avoided.

The basement in my home never suffered more than a puddle ortwo during previous deluges — we always were high and dry no mat-ter how bad the storm. But this recent rainfall pve our basementits first flood. Why? Because a new house has been going up nextdoor and down hill from us, interrupting the natural drainage sys-tem. There used to be a rain gully where the foundation now stands,and so the builder had a very wet basement to pump out. I feel sorryfor the family that buys the house . . . why isn't drainage taken intoaccount when building permits are issued? A builder on a lot suchas that should be required to put ina "floating" basement that wouldallow water to flow safely around it. Dense development in a flood-prone community like Scotch Plains-Fanwood should beaccompanledby careful regulation and planning.

The regular table salt has manyuses other than seasoning food.Here are some little salt sec-rets which may be put to use Inalmost every room of the house.They are Intended to make youa better all-round housekeeper,not just a more fascinating din-ner partner.

Listed are some ways that saltcan spice up your housekeeping.

It will help restore colors tothe living room carpets, with theaid of a wet cloth dipped In a solu-tion of half salt and half plain

w a t e r , ...,—--••- .- -..-.• .- • ;

Occasionally put a teaspoon ofsalt in a quart of fresh water atroom temperature and put yourgoldfish In. Let them swim ar-ound for about IS minutes, thenreturn them to their own tank.This helps keep them healthy.

If hot or wer dishes or glas-ses are placed on your diningroom table, there is no doubt thatthey will leave white rings onthe table. The secret for remov-ing the ring Is to make a thinpaste of salad oil and salt (equalproportions) and rub It on thespot with your finger. Let standan hour or two, then rub off.The rings should vanish.

Grease spots on rugs cansometimes be banished with asolution of one part salt to fourparts alcohol. Rub the spot hard.

Put a little salt in your bowl

-r,or. vase of flowers to keep,shamlonger.

You can clean a deep vase bypouring in a salt-vinegarsolution. Let it stand a while,then shake and rinse with clearwater.

Mold thrives on cheese. Toprevent cheese from molding,wrap cheese in a cloth dampenedwith salt water before refriger-ating.

Since salt is a heat conductor,try salting the water In the bot-tom of a double boiler to makefood In the pan above cook faster.

Salt and soda water cleans andsweetens the inside of your re-frigerator. And won't scratch theenamel.

Salt makes eggs taste better,and "Eggy" dishes easy to clean.Sprinkle salt on dishes right af-ter breakfast.

The greasiest Iron pan willwash easily if you put a littlesalt In and wipe with paper. Itis also good for removing stub-born tea stains from cups.

Salt combined with cinnamonis not a tasty treat, but a dandyoven refresher, It takes theburned food smell away. Sprinklewhile the oven is still hot. When

, dry, remove with a stiff brush orcloth,

Salt is clean all around. Usea strong salt brine in the kitchenSink drain regularly to eliminateodors and keep grease from clog-ging the drain.

Rub unpainted bread boardsand cutting boards with a clothdipped in salt after they havebeen washed with soap and wa-ter. They will look lighter andbrighter,

New brooms wear longer when

One Gal's ViewBy ANN RINALDI

What did you do the night the war ended? Did you hear the bells?Maybe you did and maybe you didn't, Not everyone hears them.

1 svas eleven when the Second World War ended, 1 remember myolder sister jumping up and down and proclaiming her happiness,1 did not understand what she was so happy about. Obviously shehad heard something I hadn't.

War was part of life, It had come, with me, at the onset of reas-oning, There had been no reasoning and few memories before it.You saved sugar, flattened tin cans, cut our coupons for meat andeveryone's car had a sticker for gas with a number on it. Airraids at school were as common as fire drills. Headlights on carswere half-blacked out and people had victory prdens.

The niiht it ended my two older sisters and my older brother wentto Times Square, I remember my father cautioning my brother towatch his sisters, 1 remember their excitement even though 1couldn't join in, I wanted to go to Times Square too and hear it allbut I know now thai even if 1 had gone 1 wouldn't have heard,

1 was in high school when the next one started. Another brother wasa year ahead of me and they got him as soon as he graduated. Thisbrother was the favorite of my father's eye and my father followedhim around and visited him in army camps as much as he could.Camp Kilmer and Fort Dix wera both a cinch. But then my brotherwent to Virginia, South Carolina, My father took convenient bus-iness trips all over the East, He svalked right into a camp in Vir-ginia svhile my brother was doing KP. "You can't come in here,"my brother protested, "This is restricted to civilians," My fathersaid something like the hell he couldn't, you are my son, and pro-ceeded to visit, I know now that my father had heard something and *he had to follow it. Miraculously my brother never went to Korea,I have no doubts that my father would have followed him there.

When Vietnam came the sister who jumped up and down with theend of World War Two and had married an ex-Gl, nosv had a sonof twenty. Unlike my father she could not follow to Vietnam, Butshe lived for letters and there were maps of the war zone all overher dining room table and at night sha lay a%vake listening. Nobodyunderstood what she was listening for because none of us heardanything,

A couple of mornings before the President got on TV to announcethat peace with honor had come I awoke and came through the livingroom to see my son, who is the age 1 was when World War Twoended, sitting In achairholdinghistransistor, listening. "The war isending, Mom," he said, "The President is going on TV to tell usit's ending Saturday,"

I started to hear something. I'm not sure what, But I was touchedby his ten-year-old concern, 1 looked at him sitting there tn hispajamas, at his smooth young face, his young arms, his innocentbrown eyes and I felt strange, Did 1 just hear something? Why do1 suddenly feel that I'm always going to remember him saying thatto me, that his words will come back to haunt me. But 1 knew why.It started to come over me then and 1 knew,

The night the war ended we went to a dinner dance. My husbandlet me out in front of the restaurant and went to park the car. As1 got out of the car I heard the bells. They were distant and muf-fled but I heard them, "Did you hear the bells?" I asked my hus-band later. '"No," he said, "1 didn't." 1 turned to the woman tothe right of me who also said no, she hadn't heard them, (Later1 found out she had one child, a daughter.) I asked one personafter another that whole evening. Nobody had heard the bells pron-ouncing peace,

I slipped away after dinner and called home. My son answered,He had childish complaints. His sister had hit him. Couldn't he stayup for one more program? '"Ronnie," 1 said, "1 heard them. Iheard the bells, The war Is over."

He was silent for a moment. When he spoke again his voice was alittle huskier and decidedly older, "I know, Mom," he said.

But what he said was more. And as with the bells, only I couldhear it.

By law the card is laminatedand any attempt to alter it woulddestroy the card.

Halpin said his staff has ex-perienced many comical sit-uations with the l.D. cards. Forinstance, ont applicant called forsupport to have his card declaredlep i to view an X-rated film res-tricted to 21 year olds. Otherincidents involved one girl whowanted four cards, one for eachpurse, and another girl who ques-tioned the 52,00 fee because herfamily was on welfare,

Halpin said he expects the rushwill level off and his staff willreturn to the normal responsi-bilities of the other statutorydu-ties of his o"ice.

Is a New Jersey eggreally fresher by

11 makes sense, that anegg laid within a fewmiles of your kitchen isfresher. That's what the.New Jersey Departmentof Agriculture says aboulNew Jersey eggs. In fad,they have, coined a phrasefor New jersey farm pro-ducts. . .Fresher by Miles. . .Cheek these "egg"facts;1. The N.J:Seal of Qualitystamped on a carton ofeggs means that each eggwas produced on a near-by N.J. farm.2. State inspection recordsprove that a N.J. egg con-sistently meets a nigherstandard of quality whencompared to eggs laid out-side the state, N.J, eggs aretruly tresher by mills,3. i our chances of buyinga SUPER FRESH dozeneggs produced in NewJersey are about one infour. Some eggs travel upto 1000 miles Before theyreach your store. So, onceyou've found a N.J. eggrememberthe brandname.4. When a carton is stamp-ed with,. ."Egp packed...or,. .distributed by a N.J.firm", it does not insureyou that the eggs are near-by N,J.eggs. A N.J. Seal ofQuality automatically teUsyou tfiey are a N,J. egg.

5, A. brand name with theword jersey in it does notnecessarily mean the eggsare N.J. eggs. Only if tnecarlon says produced inNew Jersey or displays theN.J, Seal of Quality canyou be sure.6. Once you've Lasted anegg laid right in N RW Jerseyyou'll never forget to lookfor the Now jersey Seal ofQuality, ll's your assuranceof eggs that are truly fresh.

The Boston University chapterof Sigma Xi honored William Sal-zer, ENG *72, last spring for hisoutstanding undergraduate workin engineering science. Salzer,now in his first year of medicalschool, won the Sigma Xi awardand membership in the naturalsciences fraternity for a r e -search project examining thepotential hazards of electricalcurrents in hospitals.

Impetus for the study camefrom a 1955 magazine articleby Dr. Carl Walter of Boston,which estimated that 1,000American hospital patients dieannually from eiectocution.Consumer advocate Ralph Naderrecently placed the'number ofsuspected deaths at 5,000. Spe-culation has continued since D.%Walter's article, although nomethod has been established todetermine whether the deathsin question were caused by dis-ease or electrocution. Electri-cal accidents have caused shockand burn injuries to hospital pa-tients, some melting electrodesinto patients' chests. ,

Realtor Board Offers TipsTo Home Sellers

Why do some houses sell morereadily than others, even thoughtheir competition offers similarlocation, size and price?

A Realtor or other real estatebroker knows that the homebuyer's choices are not predic-table enough to give an exactanswer to that question, At thesame time, there a re attractionsthat experience has showncan guide the choice.

A house that shows good careand pride of ownership has moreappeal than one that does not. Itneedn't be an elaborate dif-ference. The care a family hasgiven their house is apparentIn many small •ways. It is e s -sentially clean, recently painted,doors working properly, floors ingood condition? Are there flow-ers and shrubs that have givenpleasure to the owner? Are theykept weeded, trimmed andhealthy?

If there is a patio, has it beenan addition to living, or a stor-age place for rusted and unusedbarbeque equipment, discardedtoys and the lawn mower?

Anyone preparing his house forsale should put himself into abuyer's shoes and take an ob-jective look at his house, rea l -izing that the buyer is lookingat it with some misgivings. Thisis probably one of the biggest de-cisions the family seeking a housewill make.

Anything that detracts fromthat image should be fixed orchanged. It's sensible sometimes

not to do major redecoratingbecause the first thing the newowners might do is change it tosuit their own tastes. At the sametime, that doesn't mean thata dlngv bathroom shouldn't bebrightened with a coat of paint.

The housewife can do a greatdeal to help that image by havingclean curtains and drapes at thewindows, wax on the floor,anddoother things to contribute to asense of cleanliness and order.,A vase of flowers on the kitchentable may strike just the rightnote with a woman who needs anemotional jog to become the newowner.

The man of the house can besure the grass is mowed andneatly trimmed, and a healthygreen. Ho can organize the in-evitable clutter in the garage to

Fred Wieboldt has been ap-pointed Director of Athletics atUpsala College it was announcedtoday by Dr. Carl Fjellman, pres-

•ident of the college,

A member of the Upsala facultysince 1956, Wieboldt succeedsJohn Hooper, Upsala's head foot-ball coach, who had served asActing Director since the deathof Don Walker last September.

Walker had been Director ofAthletics at the East Orange col-lege for more than 20 years andbaseball coach for 27 years.

Wieboldt was Upsala's basket-ball coach from 1956 to 1967,and has coached the Viking soc-cer and golf squads for the past10 years. In the 1959-60 sea-son his cage team forged a 19-8record, including 16 straight

some degree of neatness, sweep-ing dust out of the corners andcobwebs off the windows.

The Realtor wants to get thebest price possible, consistentwith the market, for the ownerof the house being listed, andcan often make suggestions of thiskind that will give it an edge overcompetition, At the same time,the Realtor doesn't want to hurtthe owner's feelings by seemingto be too critical.

If you are preparing your housefor sale, give your Realtor a lit-tle help. Ask what you can doto make it more saleable. Theanswers may help you gatthe price you want from homeseekers who find your househas that extra edge of d e s i r -ability over others with compar-able advantages.

A fellow works for a companyfor 20 years. Them, oneday,outof a clear blue sky, he learnsthat his company doesn't existany more; it was bought by an-other company and they'reclosing out his department.

Now here is a man who is 45years old, whose children arecollege age. He spent his entirebusiness life with one company,and suddenly he finds himself inthe army of unemployed.

This is not at all uncommonthese days, unfortunately, nor isit the only reason why a loyal,competent employee can suddenlyfind himself out of a job.

"older" men.Bui there's one industry that a

man in such a position might dowell to look into — real estate.

This field doesn't * = sk a manhow old he is, where his parentscame from, how many years of _

experience he has.The main things real estate

executives want to know on hiringis, does the applicant really wantto work, does he like people, ishe ready to learn?

I have known many people past45 —• men and women —who havefound a new, exciting, profitablecareer In real estate ~ besidesa new, ever widening circle offriends andacquaintenancesinallwalks of life.

That doesn't mean the first ag-ency one goes to is going to bewaiting for him. But, real es-tate selling is a field with farfewer bars than most other bus-inesses and is, therefore, wellworth looking into -- if and whenone finds himself among those un-fortunate victims of circum-stance mentioned.

The novice will have to studyfor a real estate license and passan exam. But you can be surethe rewards, both personal andfinancial can be well worth theeffort, for those who have abilityand apply themselves.
