6 Saturday, June 2J. 1978 Philadelphia Daily News ACLU to Oufit Shore Towns With Suits ver Dress Code EW'iii irSsv Jit 'floi tTT ON TUESDAY, WILDWOOD ENACTED the same dress code that was taken of the books last winter after the ACLU filed suit. The law says that in all pubic places, except for the beach, people over 12 years old are prohibited from wearing "bathing suits or other scanty attire unless they are clothed with a cloak or other suitable outer garment extending from the neck or the top of the shoulders to within 10 inches above the knee, which cloak outer garment shall be fastened with buttons, snaps, zippers, lacing, frogs or other suitable fasteners." Cape May, a quiet community which has carefully cultivated its Victorian image, has a dress code to match. The 1972 law prohibits males over 12 years old from wearig "skin-tight, form-fitting bikini-type shorts, slacks or bathing attire on beaches, boardwalk, promenade or any public place or quasi-public place in the city." The Ocean City law enacted in 1944 stipulates that all persons keep their torsos covered, including the front-rib area. ATLANTIC CITY (UPI) The American Civil Liberties Union is preparing to challenge dress code ordinances in four shore towns, including a Cape May law barring males from wearing "skin-tight pants." The ACLU says it will be looking for a test case to seek an injuction against enforcement of the laws.

"We haven't found a plaintiff yet, but I don't think that will be a problem," the ACLU's Jim Dulfer said yesterday. ACLU local head, Jack Barense, said the organization also would ask a Superior Court judge to overturn the ordinances. But Barense said the ACLU wants an injunction to take effect as soon as because the Superior Court litigation might take up to six months. Barense said the ACLU has notified the city of Wild-wood, which enacted its dress code last Tuesday, that it plans to file suit within two weeks. He said that if Ocean City, Cape May and North Wildwood failed to rescind their dress codes in two weeks, they also would be included in the suit.

Gov. Brendan T. Byrne signed into law yesterday legislation that extends the Garden State's wiretap law another five years.

Police officials credit electronic surveillance with cleaning up rampant crime in the Garden State since 1969. Much of it was of the organized variety, they say, and wiretapping has been an effective tool in the state's "arsenal" of weapons. They believe it is particularly needed at this time with casino gambling in Atlantic City, and the threatened intrusion of organized crime. "FRANKLY, I indicated privately and maybe semi-publicly that if the Legislature could not extend the wiretap act that I would do everything in my power to discourage the Filling Some Big Boots Billy Welsh, 6, gets to be a fireman for a day when the new station housing Engine Company 2 and Ladder 3 was dedicated yesterday at 2426-32 N. 2d St.

Byrne: effective tool tion in the upper house "I am proud of my record of a civil libertarian," said Byrne, referring to the argument that electronic surveillance is an invasion of privacy and infringement on civil liberties. The governor said the legislation was drafted "as carefully as any in the country to prevent that abuse." Attorney General John J. Degnan hailed the cooperation between his office and the Legislature in passing the bill.

The Pope said his encyclical Humanae Vitae (Of Human Life) "was an anguished document not extension of casino gambling in Atlantic City," Byrne said at a brief signing ceremony. Law enforcement authorities have used an average of 103 wiretaps a year since they first went into effect in January 1969.

In 1976, for example, the state's 21 prosecutors used 112 wiretaps and the Attorney General's Office used another 45. Among the most prominent prosecutions and convictions obtained by the early use of electronic surveillance was that of Joseph A. "Bayonne Joe" Zicarelli, identified by police at the time as the gambling czar of Hudson County. Zicarelli was sent to prison for extortion and for protecting gambling operations.

He also took issue with both traditionalist and liberal critics of the church. "We must recognize that the church of Christ is a living and vital reality even though, not today and not only from without, voices are raised that are happy to stress its difficulties, to give the impression it is lethargic, to announce its coming death throes or fatal decomposition," he said. The Pope said he was well aware of the church's problems "both in countris where they are trying to suffocate religious freedom and in those where the same freedom is being used by some of its adherents to pervert its creed and sap its institutions." Although the Pope did not name any of the critics within the church, Vatican sources said his remarks were addressed both to traditionalist French Bishop Marcel Lefebvre and to liberal clergy.

Both traditionalists and liberals have accused the Pope of being too conservative or too progressive according to their viewpoint Prtcipilatiwi Last 24 Hr. Phia Inf. Air perl 0.0 North PMa.
