would be some time before exact figure could be determined. Insurance adjustors were also at work appraising the loss. Warehouse Gutted The warehouse section of the market was gutted, and smoke and water damaged much of the rest of the building when a fire broke out in the compressor sec tion of a refrigerator. Store of ficials agreed none of the mer chandise in the store would be salable. Nobody was About 35 employes and a dozen customers were ushered safely from the store.

Fire Capt. Mitchell Koscin ski, who suffered smoke poisoning, was taken by the Plainfield Rescue Squad to Muhlenberg Hos pital. He was released later in the afternoon. Although Fire Chief F. F.

Donovan and 50 of his men had the fire out within half an hour, some firemen stayed at the store until after 3 p.m. Young praised the "fantastic job" the firemen did in "so short a time." He added that the store would reopen as soon as possible, prob- aDiy "in several weeks." Wiring Ruined The warehouse section at the rear of the store was gutted. Skylights on the roof had been brok- ken by firemen, who played water irom an aerial ladder into the burning warehouse. Windows and doors on the ground level had to be broken by the firemen. Jagged portions of the metal ceiling were hanging.

Electrical wiring was ruined. Some of the records in the second-floor a a i offices, which serve the 12 marketsin the area, were damaged, Young said. Capt. John P. Townley of the Fire Prevent Bureau said today the fire was caused by some com bustible material, including paper bags, coming in contact with a compresseiy section of a refrigerator in the warehouse area.

"Heat from the compressor apparently set off a small-blaze," Townley theorized, "and the heat from the blaze in turn melted the solder on the. high pressure side of the compressor." When the solder was completely melted, Townley continued, a plug on a compressor line prob ably "popped oil." He described the noise as a bang, rather than as an explosion, which was reported yesterday by store employes. Paul Pascale of 28 Summit who was working in the ware house area when the fire began, termed the noise an explosion. He and other employes; couldn't agree whether there were two or three bangs. Townley also said that gas in the refrigeration unit contained a certain amount of oil, which burned.

Pascale, when he saw the flames and smoke, called store manager Nicholas Parent of Woodbridge, who ordered some 35 employes and a dozen custom ers out of the store. Rescue Squad Helps Donovan said Engine Companies 1, 2, 3 and 4, Truck Companies 1 and 2 and the emergency squad answered the alarm. The Plainfield Rescue Squad helped give oxygen to firemen running in and out-of the smoke-filled building. The super market building is owned by Kings of the Oranges Inc. Mayfair leases it, Donovan said.

Albert R. Walker, chairman of the Plainfield Parking Authority, declined to speculate whether the Authority would make an offer, Sentence Is For Assault John Holmes, 34, of 725 S. asked the Superior Court for. two sion and a stay of a hearing on Russell Pfitzinger of 172 Farm I Lane, Bound Brook said he" was a senior division material inspector at the time of his suspension. Defendants Named Named as defendants in his Superior Court complaint were the board of trustees of the Pub lic Employment Retirement Sys tem and Dwight R.

G. Palmer, state highway commissioner. Pfitzinger said that on Jan. 28 Palmer had a notice served on him of his suspension without pay pending a hearing. Reasons given, he claimed, were conduct unbecoming an employe in the public service, neglect of duty, and violation of lawful and reasonable official regulations or orders made and given by his superior officers.

The plaintiff said that on Apr. 24, he elected to retire as a veteran and filed an application for retirement with the defendant board. He stated he understood that his application was referred to Palmer for certiiication and that it has not been certified. Hearing Slated Specific charges were served on May 1 in behalf of Palmer and Pfitzinger was advised of an informal hearing, the plaintiff said. Pfitzinger said the charges con cerned alleged occurrences over a perod of; over 19 years.

He claimed litigation of the charges would involve discovery, trial and appeals, which would entail substantial time and money for both parties, and which would be avoidable if he were entitled to a pension regardless of the outcome ofthe pending disciplinary proceedings. He 6aid he would not defend himself in the disciplinary pro ceedings since he could not af ford the "economic luxury" of "personal vindication." The plaintiff asked of superior court the following: A judgment construing a stat ute regarding public employes retirement and social security, with particular reference to pension rights of an otherwise eligible public employe against whom de partmental charges, which might result in his dismissal, are pending. A judgment directing the defendant board to approve the plaintiff's retirement application and to make pension payments. Hearing Stay Asked A stay of hearing on the departmental charges pending final judgment of this action. Filed with the complaint was a copy of detailed charges against the plaintiff by his superiors with several examples of each charge.

Among charges were that between 1954 and 1958 Pfitzinger allegedly took more than one-half Minister Gets Drew Award Neshanic The Rev. Henry O. Thompson was awarded the Dorr F. Diffendorf prize yesterday upon his graduation from Drew The prize reflects" excellence in; preaching. i The Rev.

Second between Park and Watchung Aves, be made into one large parking lot, a move which would require acquisition of the May- fair building. The Authority has considered the matter in the past but the Common Council has insisted that, before it gives the Author ity permission to do this, it must have assurance that city ratables will not be decreased. The Authority was to meet at 4 p. m. today in the office of its secretary, Irving Kunzman, 9 Watchung Ave.

Additional Shop Night Poll Planned A poll of retail members of the Chamber of Commerce to determine their reaction to designating a second night for evening shop ping was approved last night by the Retail Trades Division in the Park Hotel. The merchants also will be asked if they wished to make a consumer survey on the question David Scheckman, chairman of the community store hours com mittee, will circulate the questionnaire to city merchants. Division bylaws require that to adopt a general store-hour policy, a two-thirds majority of 60 per cent of the members must ap prove the measure. The division authorized tele grams to assemblymen of Union, Middlesex and Somerset coun ties urging them to have Bill 22 released from committee and given a favorable vote. The bill, already approved in the state Senate, would curb the sale of certain merchandise on Sundays in all counties, except those at the shore.

On recommendation of Scheck man, the proposed "June Jubilee' approved at the May meeting of the division, was cancelled. Arthur Schwabe, chairman of the Fall Festival to be held some time between Sept. 15 and Oct 12, presented a tentative program incorporating carnival features and other special attractions.

Testimony was given concern ing aspects dl locating the pro ject, on the 45.5 acre site. Some 286 apartment units would be constructed with a zone of 31 private dwellings at the perim eter.

Reports oh Study Daniel Hanrohan of Elizabeth and vice president of the state Real Estate Board reported from a study made of 60 apartment de velopments. He said he expected that 115 children of school age would live in the homes and that it would take a total of $34,650 to educate them. He said he estimated that 43 children of school age would live in the apartments and that it would cost in total $36,820 to edu cate them. He asserted that total Town ship taxes from the apartments would be about $68,515 and that the residents would probably spend $317,000 a year for food. He continued that he had stu died some of the apartments in Plainfield.

He said that many homes had been built in Plain field and North Plainfield after the apartments had been estab lished. He said those apartments had not been prejudical to the area. Objects to Study Report During the presentation, Attor ney Leon Semer, spokesman for local residents who are objecting to the plan, said that the study was inadmissible because it was largely derived from hear say information. Former state Senator John E. Toolan representing Absig, the builders, defended the report and R.

Joseph Ferenczi, attorney for the Board, permitted its presentation. Semer later said that Edison had three apartment buildings and that they were all in a zone. The proposed acreage for the Absig development is in a residential A Semer asked Hanrohan if Plain-field was comparable to Edison. Hanrohan answered that Plain-field was not in that it had reach ed a saturation point as far as new apartment buildings were concerned. Semer then question ed the use of Plainfield in the report if the area were dissimilar.

First Request Earlier in the meeting Ferenczi quoted the provisions for special uses from the zoning ordinance 'which was adopted last Dec. 11. He also said that the Absig re quest for a special exception use was the first one to come before the Board. Nathaniel Schwartz, an en gineer for Absig, concluded his testimony and said that nis con cern was ready to make any changes in plans to comply with township directives and that it would eliminate the construction of a road to connect with Long- view Rd. if the township so de sired.
