Powell May Wish He'd Kept Going By JOHN BECKLER WASHINGTON (AP) When Adam Clayton Powell returns to Washington from sunny Puerto Rico he is liable to find the capital can be just as in winter.

For the Democratic chairman of the House Education and Labor Committee will have to face the wrath of his committee colleagues, the scorn of a senator and the displeasure of the administration. Powell, 53, who is equally at home in the pulpit of the Negro Baptist church he heads in New York City, the political clubs of Harlem, and the plush night clubs of two continents, has managed to outrage the sensibilities of an impressive number of people in the past. A combination of charm, gall and pride has enabled him to act as if he couldn't even hear their angry cries. Now that he has stirred up so many antagonists at once, these traits may not be enough to keep out the rising din of criticism. The soft voice of Sen.

John J. Williams, from the Senate floor, has spoken loudest, calling Powell an authority on "adult delinquency," criticizing his trip abroad with two "lady friends" at government expense Four Little Girls Drown Under Ice BABYLON, N.Y. (AP) Four sisters died under the ice on a lake but the oldest in the an 11-year-old saved. Paul Barnard, 23, a Suffolk County policeman, saved the girl after hearing her scream as he fed ducks, his 2-year-old son by his side. Frank Corridan, somewhat older than Barnard, was in another area of the lake fishing.

His wife was at home, tending their 6- month-old twin daughters and 2- year-old son. The five other children of the on the ice 100 yards from where Barnard crouched coaxing the ducks. Suddenly he heard a girl scream. He saw Lorraine Corridan, 11, clutch desperately at jagged ice forming a hole through which she had slipped. Telling his son to stay put, Barnard plunged waist deep into the icy water.

Lorraine was screaming that her sisters were "under the ice- help. Help-" After several tries and a return to shore for rope from his car, Barnard pulled the hysterical girl to safety. Hours later the bodies of her four sisters were brought to the surface. Dead were Louise, Mary Ann Patricia, 7, and Kathleen, 1. Pomona News Lions Pancake Supper At Church Wednesday and questioning (he propriety of several government financial transactions' favorable to Powell.

The mattered comments of Education and Labor Committee members, who feel he has now outdone himself in shirking responsibility, could prove far more wounding to the prideful Powell. Potentially most threatening of all to his 'continued jaunty progress through the House is the still unspoken feeling of some members that Powell is bringing all Congress into disrepute and must be curbed. His latest troubles began last week. On Monday everything seemed fine. Powell energetically opened an announced two weeks of hearings on President Kennedy's big education bill, fulfilling a promise made to the administration to get right to work on the important measure.

On Tuesday he disappeared. There is no way of knowing if he had learned Williams was going to take the Senate floor that day. However, Powell's favorite method of dealing with such problems has been to make himself unavailable to the press. At any rate, he flew to his home in Puerto Rico, where a spokesman said Sunday night he was just resting and talking to no one. It may be that Powell deserted the hearings because he has little sympathy for the administration's decision to wrap 24 major education proposals into one super-bill with a price tag and dump it in his lap with orders to consider it as one measure.

Whatever the reason, his absence caused the badly divided, leaderless committee to come apart at the seams, nearly wrecking the hearings and further diminishing the already slim chances for the bill, much to the administration's distress.
