D2 Asbury Park PressTues. Jan. 6, 1981 routes tablished by county Hearing due for man charged with escape try Three new buses have been purchased to serve the additional areas. Jamison said ridershlp on the six buses in operation last month was low, but blamed the weather and the fact that many people aren't aware the service exists. It will improve in the spring and summer, he said.

In the nine days of operation last month, buses on the Manchester Township route carried 178 persons and was the most successful, Jamison said. "Manchester Township has more senior citl2ens," he said. "They are more bus oriented." Buses which ran through Little Egg Harbor Township, Tuckerton and Eagleswood Township transported 27 persons, and buses traveling through Plumsted, and Jackson townships and Lakewood carried 26 people, he said. Buses servicing Lacey Township were in operation six days and transported persons, he added. Of the 258 persons who traveled on the buses, 103 were senior citizens using half-price discounts.

The regular fee is 50 cents. Jamison said the biggest problem is making people aware of the bus service. Suggestions made by the board include contacting local chambers of commerce and senior citizens' groups, distribution of literature, and offering discount coupons. Board members urge all persons interested in improving the bus service contact the Ocean County Handicapped Elderly Transportation Service. Northern Ocean Board gets budget TINTON FALLS Clarence E.

Ed-mond, who has been charged with misrepresenting himself as a lawyer, was arraigned yesterday on charges of resisting arrest and attempting to escape from police. A Municipal Court hearing on the charges is scheduled for Jan. 19. Edmond, of Pleasure Bay Apartments, Long Branch, claims the U.S. Supreme Court admitted him to the bar under the "Clarence E.

Edmond emergency rule." He was arrested by borough police Dec. 29 on a warrant issued Nov. 18 by Long Branch Municipal Court Judge Jacob Rand when Edmond failed to appear at a hearing on the charge of misrepresenting himself as a lawyer. Edmond is being held in the Monmouth County Jail, Freehold Township, in $2,500 bail. Municipal Court Judge Alan M.

Klatsky yesterday told Edmond a public defender would be appointed to defend him if he could not afford a lawyer. Edmond did not speak during the 10-minute arraignment. He was accompanied by Detective Melvin McKeller. Edmond was arrested in Long Branch Oct. 6 when he allegedly tried to act as a lawyer for a juvenile.

He is charged with practicing law without a license. The case will be handled by Mark Stalford, an assistant county prosecutor.

Civil defense director appointment criticized New bus TOMS RIVER Three additional Ocean County Area Transportation bus routes are expected to be in operation by Feb. 2, county Board of Public Transportation member Stephen Jamison said last night.

The buses on Long Beach Island will alternate trips to the mainland, he added. First day of school a success BRICK TOWNSHIP Students of Brick Township Memorial High School attended classes in their own building for the first time yesterday. It was an "excellent" day, principal William F. Brouillette said after the students had gone home. "Everything went very, very nicely." The school district has been waiting four years for the $11.4 million building on Lanes Mill Road to be constructed.

The two-story structure was built to eliminate split sessions in Brick Township High School. This year, 1,069 students in grades 9 through 11 were separated from the Brick Township High School student body to enter Memorial. For students, teachers and administrators alike, yesterday's routine was a bit out of the ordinary. Although Memorial students and staff had been attending afternoon classes this year while they shared space at Brick Township High School, yesterday they found themselves getting up early enough to start classes at 7:35 a.m. "I walked in the building at 6 this morning that was early," Brouillette said.

The students, who attended an orientation session in the building last month, had an extended homeroom period to receive new locker assignments. They then resumed a normal class schedule for the six-period day. Students in both schools will continue a six-period morning session until the end of the marking period Jan. 23. They then will switch over to an extended, eight-period day, which will include a lunch period and an elective class or a study hall.

Members of the board's finance committee will meet tomorrow to review the budget and make recommendations to the full board at a special budget meeting Thursday night. In turning over the budget to the board, school business administrator Stanley F. Banas said the draft budget exceeded the state mandated budget caps by about curity guard at Great Adventure for five years, is better qualified for the Job. "To the victors belongs the spoils," former Republican Mayor Walter F. Rehak said.

Democratic Committeeman G. Donald Bates questioned why the committee, facing budget restrictions this year, is increasing the salary for the post. "I just don't understand the rationale of using tax dollars for political purposes," Bates said. Santos is vice president of the township Republican Club. The appointment does not affect Mrs.

Sutkowski's $15,587 post as township welfare director. Moon's church may buy landmark Shore hotel LSD in stamps confirmed SPRING LAKE The Essex Sussex Hotel may be sold to the Rev. Sun Myung Moon's Unification Church if the borough does not speed up a decision on converting the building to apartments, the hotel owners say. Charles Carroll, of the Halloran-Carroll Development said last night that representatives of the Unification Church have been "active in pursuing" an offer to buy the 280-room hotel on Ocean Avenue for the past seven or eight months. The Unification Church is an anti-communist religious movement founded by Moon in 1954.

The church has been criticized for the method by which it gains converts, often arousing concern among parents that their children's personalities wUl change if they join. "The planning board seems to be dragging their feet," Carroll said. "If the fact proves that they're not interested, we'll have to decide whether to go on the market." The lawyer for the developers, William F. Dowd, said the Unification Church was the only group to make an offer for the hotel ISLAND HEIGHTS Laboratory results have confirmed that 14 cartoon stamps found here Wednesday in the motor vehicle of a Brick Township man are laced with LSD. Patrolman John Stillwell said the substance found on the stamps was analyzed and found to contain LSD, a hallucinogenic drug.

Stillwell said he will meet with federal Drug Enforcement Agency officials tomorrow to determine the origin of the stamps and whether there are any more in the area. A meeting scheduled for yesterday was postponed, Stillwell said. Stillwell and Patrolman Edward Sidley Jr. found the stamps in the car of Gregory Pinho, a Brick Township man they had stopped for a motor vehicle violation. Police, Courts Man shot by policeman remains hospitalized proposal $41,000.

"It's a good working budget from the standpoint of staying below the caps. We're above the caps but only by a small amount and we feel there's no need for a cap appeal," Banas said. In discussing ways to bring the budget back under caps, board members last night voted to approve a proposal to eliminate $46,700 in program funds for which the dis trict has been reimbursed in the past by the state. The funds have been eliminated in the previous two budgets approved by the board and the state has continued to pay for the programs, said Banas, noting that removal of the money was "a gamble that would be taken." The funds pay for vocational programs in the high school, said school superindent John F. Patrick.

Though the board did not fully discuss the new budget last night, it was known that some of the Increases were due to a proposal to hire seven new teachers and added costs for district textbooks. In the new budget, textbook costs would go from $45,000 to $85,000, said Patrick, adding that past budgets had been "notoriously low" in supplies and textbooks. The district cost is $8.47 per pupil for supplies and textbooks, while the county average cost is $15.12, Patrick said. According to police, a small amount of marijuana and an envelope containing 14 small stickers with the Walt Disney character "Dopey" were found in the car. Pinho was first charged with possession of marijuana and was free in $500 bail.

Police are investigating the stamps since several law enforcement bulletins warned of the circulation of the stickers in the New York metropolitan area, Stillwell said. On Friday, after consulting with DEA officials in Atlantic City, police arrested Pinho again and charged him with possession of LSD. Pinho is free in $1,000 bail pending a Municipal Court hearing Feb. 24, Stillwell said. we're doing half the time," the elder Lubsen, who is 71 and retired, said yesterday.

He said he was told blood for his son's operation had been donated by township policemen. Lubsen, who was graduated from Lake-wood High School In 1979, had planned to resume his electronics studies at Bell and Howell's DeVry Institute next month. He was forced to drop his studies in November after he was Injured in a traffic accident while helping a motorist with a flat tire.

Feurey also established the fact, after questioning Bocchino, that no formal complaints had been made against the VFW during their stay at Bocchino's building, which now houses a ceramic shop on Church Road. The VFW will provide outdoor activities such as shuffleboard and boccie courts for use by the public, and will offer a program to combat drug addiction. It will also sponsor a scout troop.

The final decision will be based on which is most economical. Renkin said. Long term commitments, like the three-year term for Roeschke, could cause problems if the township decided to eliminate the local board, Renkin said. In other action, the board reappointed Ellery Fox to his seventh term as board attorney. The board elected board member Estelle Brodkey to a second term as board president.

Michael Rodak, chief clerk of the U.S. Supreme Court, said Edmond has written phony Superior Court opinions and sent them all over the country. He said they were well written and might fool a person who is unfamiliar with the law. Edmond has also sent copies of his opinions to the president, the FBI and almost every state attorney general, Rodak said. Rodak also confirmed reports that some state attorneys general have called him to ascertain if the opinions were authentic.

in the past year. But Nadine Hack, director of public affairs for the Unification Church, said she wasn't aware that church officials made an offer to buy the 67-year-old hotel. "I doubt they did," she said. "I would have been notified if there's any purchase." Dowd said another alternative the company may take if its demands are not met is filing suit against the municipality. Carroll said the chance of taking either action were "just about equal." "Right now we're in a state of limbo," he said.

"Of course our first preference would be to proceed with the application," Dowd said. Planning Board Chairman John L. Naughton said he was surprised that the hotel owners would consider selling the Essex Sussex to the Unification Church. "There's no law to stop them," he said. "I don't know If it's a threat or not." "I wouldn't expect an adverse reaction from the people of Spring Lake," Naughton said.

JACKSON TOWNSHIP The Township Committee's Republican majority has confirmed the appointment of William Santos as civil defense director despite the criticism of the committee's only Democrat.

The committee appointed Santos, a security guard supervisor at Six Flag's Great Adventure, at a $1,000 annual salary at its organization meeting Sunday. The appointment was criticized by Evelyn Sutkowski, township welfare director, who was appointed township civil defense director by a Democratic mayor, Arleen Polito, in 1979. Santos will be paid more than Mrs. Sutkowski, whose $1,700 salary was cut to $255 in 1980. At that time, the Republican majority on the committee said the salary had to be cut because of a tight budget.

Mrs. Sutkowski contends her appointment is for a three-year term and will not expire until September 1982. Republican Committeeman Martin J. Ja-kubczak said at last night's committee meeting that that Mrs. Sutkowski 's comments were unwarranted and hindered the committee's organization meeting.

The township attorney advised the committee that Mrs. Sutkowski's appointment expired in 1980, Jakubczak said. Jakubczak also criticized the local press for failing to report on the committee appointments to various departments while writing extensively about the civil defense director's appointment. Jakubczak and Republican Mayor James J. McKenna said Santos, who has been a se when he thought he heard a noise at the rear of the building.
