Combination is a Sure-Hitl Transit Plans Will Get 2 Stations, PAT Tells Of Oakland will get at least two stations along any rapid transit line running through, under or over the community, but where they will be is still unknown, a Port Authority Transit (PAT) spokesman has told some Oaklanders.

Speaking at the Oakland Chamber of Commerce luncheon yesterday, Edward Jensen, PAT's public information chief, said the two stations were "pinpointed" by engineers at I St. and Forbes Ave. and at Bcllcficld and N. Neville Sts. "But these spots are the most attractive places selected by engineers at Parsons, Brinckcrhoff, a and Douglas," he retorted.

Mr. Jensen said PAT will hold public hearings after station locations for Oakland and other areas of the County are determined. If they are underground there will be a minimum of dislocation, he added. But parking facilities will be needed at most stations with the size of the facility to be determined by the needs. "For example, Oakland's station could depend mostly on walk-in trade and need fewer parking spaces," he added.

Mr. Jensen said PAT has received offers for the Craft Ave. car barns which will become surplus property after the new East Liberty garage is built, but no decision has been made.

Mr. Vogel also disagreed ith earlier testimony by Leo Harrold. principal of Brent-y-ood's Elroy Ave. elementary school that much of Miss Spano's work for Brentwood was unnecessary. During his testimony.

Mr. Vogel commended Miss Spano for her experimental program in foreign languages in one of the district kindergartens. Earlier, school board solicitor Thomas Rutter Jr. assailed Miss Spano's experiments in a Brentwood kinder-garden, accusing her of treating the children "like guinea pigs." Miss Spano was smiporled by another witness, Allan E. Jordan, former director of development for Duquesne University and now assistant to the president of Wheeling College.

"Didn't Mr. Metika inform you that your recommendations were under consideration?" asked the solicitor. "Yes," replied Miss Spano, ''but he said all of my reeo-mendations were under consideration." The hcaiing, which began last fall, will continue at 8 p. m. Tuesday in the Brentwood High School.
