Cool, Dry Weekend To Favor Area By LEONARD LOCKWOOD It looks like a cool and dry weekend.

Temperatures this afternoon are expected to reach just into the 70s, and it won't be much warmer tomorrow, according to John Williams, head weatherman at the Rochester-Monroe County Airport. Cause of the cool air, Williams said, was a good-sized high pressure area which wes centered out near International Falls, Minn. This was expected to cause northerly to northeasterly winds here today keeping temperatures cool. Rochester yesterday was on the cool, or easterly, side of the high. Winds circulate in a clockwise direction out of a high.

That causes northerly winds on the easterly side, and southerly winds on the westerly. That means the center of the high will have to get east of Rochester before we will notice any warming, possibly tomorrow. Of course, 70-degree tempreatures aren't hard to take. The high, until it gets east of Rochester, will block any storm systems, so the weekend weather has a good chance of staying dry. Meanwhile the warm, moist air for a while has been pushed down south.

Funnel clouds (tornadoes) were spotted near Galveston, and off Panama City Beach, Fla. The Latter would be labeled a waterspout if it dipped down to hit the ocean. Tornadoes on land are waterspouts at sea. ROCHESTER AND VICINITY FORECAST Mostly sunny. High 78.

Northwesterly winds 10 to 20 m.p.h. Near zero chance of precipitation. Tomorrow: Warmer. Background: High pressure is slowly moving into the Great Lakes area and will dominate the weather through the weekend, resulting in fine weather. U.S.

Government Air Base for Wyoming? Spokesman Says No' 'I MF UKtXASXS Western New York, Northern Finger Lakes, east of Lake Ontario: Sunny and mild. High in the upper 70s. New York City: Sunny: High In the 80s. With a chance of showers. Interior eastern New York: Mostly sunny.

High in the mid 70s to mid 80s. Western Pennsylvania: Mostly sunny and mild. High 74 to 80. A report that Niagara Falls Air Force Base would be moved to Wyoming County was denied yesterday by the Air Force. Sen.

Robert F. Kennedy's office in Washington was told there was "no truth" to the transfer, and the Air Force had no idea how the rumor started. The report came from a Wyoming County official who said the base would be moved into an area south of Perry and north of Castile and Gainesville. Residents there had reported parts of the area had been surveyed and aerial photographs had been taken by the Air Force. But nobody knew why.

A rural arterial highway which would pass just west of the rry-Castile-Gainesville area is proposed for use after 1972. Considers Sewage State Plans New Hornell Road Bids Gannett News Service ALBANY Gov. Rockefeller announced yesterday that estimates had been increased and new bids will be asked on the Hornell north-south arterial on Thursday, Sept. 22. No bids were offered when the project was put up Thursday.

He reported that the State Public Works Department had received the estimates and increased the total by $213,000, to $2.6 million. The governor said that in the interest of acceleration, the project is being financed with 100 per cent state funds, to avoid the necessity of awaiting the next apportionment of federal aid. The completion target date for which remains Aug. 31, 1968. The arterial construction will provide a new four-lane cement concrete highway from Canisteo Street, north on new alignment east of Canisteo Street to a new crossing of the Erie-Lackawanna railroad at Loder Street, then northwest to the west side of Canisteo Street and north to Main and Seneca streets.

The project includes installation of street lighting and traffic signals and construction of a bridge over the Erie-Lackawanna Railroad on new location to replace the present highway underpass at Canisteo Street. The old underpass will be filled in, and a pedestrian underpass constructed at that point. The new highway will replace sections of Route 36 which now are carried on city streets. Arson Probe Launched in Medina Blaze MEDINA Fire believed to be of incendiary origin destroyed a portion of the floor in the north rear corner of the main sandstone building of the abandoned Medina Stamping foundry Thursday about midnight. An investigation is under way.

The blaze was discovered by Mrs. Thomas West of 104 Manilla Place, who resides across the canal from the rear of the building. She said she saw flames through a rear window of the plant. The fire was not visible from the front of the structure on North Main Street, according to firemen. Fire Chief Ralph Whiting voiced his appreciation for Mrs.

West's quick call to the fire department, stating that it prevented the fire from getting out of control before the firemen could reach it. He said lightning in the storm Thursday night could not have started the fire, and attributed it to possible arson. The plant is owned by attorney Vincent Cardone of Medina and Edward Scharping of meeting later, ostensibly to award contracts, but could not be reached. Approval was overwhelming 246 to 38 but with a slim turnout of taxpayers casting ballots. The addition comprises 10 classrooms, a new cafeteria asd district offices, and renovation of he nearby high school building.

All the buildings on the Park-Wolcott Street campus will be joined by enclosed walkways. The board had only until next Tuesday to give the go ahead to contractors, or face the need to readvertise. It was forced to seek the igher bonding authorization when it received bids os July 6 far in excess of architectural estimates. Passage of the higher bonding limitation clears the final hurdle in the years-long path leading to the construction. The project ran into trouble at the outset with the State Department of Education turning thumbs down.

Taxpayer support at Le Roy, however, always has been high. Livonia Set To Finance Water Units LIVONIA This village is "practically out of debt" and should be able to finance its proposed new water distributions system without much difficulty, Mayor Vincent Kurtz says. This capability was a factor in the village board's decision to go ahead with the project even though federal grant funds in aid of construction were denied. Another factor was sheer necessity. "We are badly in need of water," Kurtz said.

"Our normal upland supply doesn't hold us at all any more." This supply can be counted on for only about four months of water as soon as consumption starts to peak in the summer time. After that, the village has had to resort to makeshift arrangements with the Town of Livonia to tap the Lakeville system. Eight contractors have filed bids for installation of the new system estimated to cost a maximum of $275,000. The bids, which include several alternates, are being compiled and reviewed by the illage's engineering consultants. Kurtz expects to have a report on them in a week to 10 days.

Water for the new system will come from Hemlock Lake under contract with the City of Rochester. The contract calls for a maximum supply of 250,000 gallons a day at 20 cents a thousand gallons. Plans call for a 10-inch main to be connected to a Rochester-owned main two miles south of Hemlock. The Livonia main would run three miles on Big Tree Road to its intersection with Shelley Road, from where a 12-inch main would go to the reservoir.

Sewage from the larger portion in the town "is all treated in septic tanks and has been since the beginning. Lapp does not and, to the best of my knowledge, never has dumped raw sewage into Oatka Creek. The discharge from the septic tanks flows into the creek," he said. Mills said the company has sought to connect the entire plant to the village's sanitary sewer system, but has been stymied by the village's inability to extend mains beyond its own borders.

For the company to build its own treatment facility, he said, would be "very expensive." Mills said the company will, however, build its own facility if it must. While this move would be a heavy expense to the company, it also "would deprive the village of a considerable amount of revenue under one preliminary proposal, we would pay the village an additional $7,000 a year." IMPROVED POST OFFICE North Chili's Post Office will be improved, according to Rep. Barber Conable, R-37th District. The Post Office's real estate department is determining whether the branch will be enlarged, or a new one built. i Roy (g) Ipavilion yast 1 If (39) 1 Gneseo parcel near Perry ville said they knew nothing about the report.

Republican Rep. Henry P. Smith, who represents Niagara Falls, also confirmed the Air Force denial. "Without equivocation, we can say that it is a false rumor," an Air Force spokesman told him. Smith was informed the Defense Department has no plans for removal or relocation of the base and that the Air Force expects to occupy the Niagara Falls site for an unlimited period.

The base houses deep-seated Bomarc missiles and F104 jet fighters and is used by the Air National Guard, officials said. The report caught Rep. Barber B. Conable Jr. (R-Batavia) who represents Wyoming County, by surprise.

"I haven't heard a thing about it you are catching me absolutely flatfooted," Conable told a reporter. "It doesn't mean that nothing is happening," Conable said. "Yoti have to remember that I'm a Republican and anything like that would probably come out of Sen. (Robert) Kennedy's office. "It would not be an unmixed blessing," the Wyoming County ntative speculated.

"Some would consider it great economic fillip Others would be opposed because of the noise of jets whistling in." Conable said the Perry-G a i esville-Castile area is slightly rolling hills to flat land. Crash Hurts Car Driver BATH Larry W. Rogers, 21, of Troupsburg, was injured at about 1:15 a.m. yesterday in a one-car accident on Steuben County Route 10 two miles south of Bath. He suffered lacerations of the left knee, left side of the head and near the right eye.

He was reported in "satisfactory" condition in Davenport Hospital. Sheriff's Deputy Gary Mat-tice said the sedan Rogers was driving south went off the road, hit three guide posts, then a tree and two more posts. Rathkone Native Gets New Post HAMMONDSPORT David J.

Daily Coliform Counts Coliform bacteria counts decreased at all local Lake Ontario beaches in figures reported yesterday All Boatmen In 38 Cases Found Guilfy PERRY All 38 of the people arrested this summer by the Silver Lake boat patrol have been convicted, a check of court records showed yesterday.

Only one of the 38 pleaded innocent to charges, Castile Peace Justice Jay Carmichael said. The court records were revealed after directors of the Silver Lake Cottage Owners Association complained Tuesday night that boat patrol deputy Gordon Wolcott's enforcement has been over-technical and picayune. Acting Sheriff Dalton Carney has defended Wolcott as merely upholding the laws enacted by others. Court records showed the only person who pleaded innocent to a charge later was found guilty of reckless boat operation after a trial. Sixteen persons pleaded guilty and were fined for operating a motorboat recklessly.

Sixteen pleaded guilty and were fined for not having proper boating equipment. Four were fined for not having oat registrations aboard. Another was fined for water-skiing without an observer. Fines ranged from $5 to $10. GENESEE COUNTY News Bureau 42 Main Baiavia Phone: 34.J-0270 ORLEANS COUNTY News Bureau 20 N.

Ontario Park rest I Brent Mills, president of Lapp Insulator issued a state ment of the company's position in the treatment of sewage and plant industrial discharges. The Gilbert Street industrial complex, partly in the village of Le Roy and partly in the adjacent town, manufactures porcelain insulators. Besides its sanitary sewage, the plant discharges inorganic residue from its manufacturing operations. An aerial photograph in an issue of The Democrat and Chronicle last week showed staining of 0 a a Creek caused by the clay residue discharge.

The photo was part of a story on pollution of water supplies. "Lapp has always discharged clay water into Oatka Creek," Mills observed. "At one stage all of our porcelain is in the form of water with clay solids about the consistency of thick cream. Inevitably some of this is lost, flows into the creek and stains the water for some distance below the plant." Mills added that this "clay represents value at that stage of about $50 per ton; we hold the loss to a minimum. As we see it, this clay does no conceivable harn.

Every rainstorm muddies the creek to a degree much greater than the clay discharge from the plant and with about the same ingredients." The industrialist noted objections to this discharge and the firm has "specific plans 'for handling the matter." He didn't say what they were. Sanitary sewage from the Beach, which had its second highest level of the sea-s Wednesday with a count 35,000, was down to a high of only 800 Thursday. Durand-East-man Beach dropped from a First Civilian Aide Gained by Troopers BATH Mrs. Joseph Pulvino of Savona, mother of two young children, is the first civilian to work at the Bath State Police Substation under a new policy allowing civilians to be employed for clerical and typing duties at all stations of the agency. She was among 35 applicants for the post, created so that troopers and Bureau of Criminal Investigation personnel will have more time for out-of-office work.

Mrs. Pulvino has been on the job about a month and still is in training, officials said. Eventually, she also will be doing communications work and be receptionist at the station along Route 15 near Kanona. She is a native of Painted Post RD 1 and a 1960 graduate of Corning Northside High School. Formerly, she worked at the Southern Tier Library Association in Corning.

Her husband is a carpenter, working for Howell Lumber Co. in Hammondsport. They have two children, Joseph 3rd, 4, and Renee, 1. high Wednesday of 8,200 to 1,400 Thursday. Coliform bacteria are an index to contamination of water by sewage.
