Saturday, June 27, 1970 ITHACA JOURNAL Stratton Is Booed "The only way the lottery system could work would be for there to be a pool of men ayailable," Stratton said. "The way it is now, a 19-year-old can be hung up for 6 to 8 years." According to Stratton, "If occupational and college de-ferments are eliminated, the 19-year-olds would know within one year if they were draft vulnerable." MORRISVILLE, N.Y. (AP)-Youthful cheers quickly switched to loud boos Friday when Rep. Samuel S. Stratton told a gathering of high school boys that he favored the elimination of draft deferments for healthy college students.

The upstate Democrat, now living in Amsterdam, spoke to the 1,050 participants attending American Legion Boys State, an annual week-long exercise in mock politicking. Stratton initially was greeted with cheers when he said he had long supported lowering the nation's voting age from 21 to 18. But the mood of his audience shifted when Stratton explained his position on the draft. i ni. mm in pmmwnus: I 1 A' VJVw V.

The city has twice petitioned the New York State Public Service Commission in the matter: The first petition was Thursday that the veto of a $145,000 bond issue be overridden with the understanding that the maximum the city would spend would be $154,000. A petition containing about 1,000 names and opposing the limitation of BPW power by Council is expected to be presented by First Ward County Representative James Graves.

Local laws which would give Council ultimate authority over the BPW's direction of the city departments and which would permit Council to sell water outside the city over the objections of the BPW were introduced by Second Ward Alderman Michael Robinson June 3.

The second petition entered by City Attorney Fred Weinstein, was for the removal, not of the tracks, but the grade crossing either by raising it above the road on a trestle or by building it beneath the road in a tunnel, neither possibility being financially feasible.

The cost of removing the tracks from the crossing and building a loop on the property of Morse Chain so the factory can continue to be served by the railroad has been estimated at $26,000. In his letter to Towlson, Fitzpatrick wrote: ''The Lehigh Valley Railroad has placed out of service its single track at the crossing at the grade and "We will shortly arrange for the removal of the crossing protection. However, before we arrange for the removal of the track through the crossing I will appreciate knowing the Department's plans with respect to this area since I believe we should coordinate our efforts." leges and high schools and the Budget Hearing Scheduled GREEN STAMPS (SMARAOTsEE) ON YOUR TOTAL tJ FOOD MIDGET ON YOUR TOTAL CtFOOD BUDGET CANDOR The funeral of Harry M.

I Good at Ithaca Victory thru June 30, 1970 With this The Ithaca School District has scheduled a public hearing Monday on a 1970-71 budget which is still up in the air. By Friday no report had been received from the state factfinder for the dispute over teachers' salaries, a major budget item. And even if the report is received Monday, there is a state-mandated moratorium of five days before it can be released to the public, and there may be further delays before a settlement is reached. Technically a 1970-71 final budget must be drawn up and adopted by June 30.

In practice, pay negotiations have often meant districts had difficulty in meeting the deadline. The Ithaca district may have two alternate budgets ready for approval Monday night, with the decision over which is to be adopted to rest with the outcome of negotiations. This was the procedure followed a few years ago when the board held a July referendum on the tax limit. Assistant Superintendent L. Wrilliam Banner said he had no new budget figures ready Friday, but may have some available on Monday morning.

He suggested colleges might head off trouble by admissions requirements designed to weed out applicants who apply only to make trouble and not to get an education. Earlier, the commission plans to study a survey now being conducted to determine the relationship between campus violence and the extent to which colleges complied with the rules for coping with it filed under the 1969 Henderson law. In commenting on the disturbances at Hobart College following a drug raid, Henderson noted that the Hobart administration, more than that of any other college, had objected to filing rules on the ground that it was able to take care of its own problems. "My impression is that the colleges who stuck by the rules they filed encountered less violence," Henderson said. In relation to the disturbance that followed the entrance into Cambodia, Henderson says he wanted to know whether the action abroad triggered demonstrations or whether campus radicals used the U.S.

Cambodia incursion as an excuse to stir up trouble. 1 Injured; 1 Charged A minor automobile accident at the intersection of Prospect and Aurora Sts. at 2:30 p.m. Friday, slightly injured a two-year-old passenger riding in one of the vehicles.

Talking with newsmen, Goodell said he was supporting Gov. Nelson A. Rockefeller for a fourth term, although he is also running on the liberal line with Arthur J. Goldberg. Asked if the Republican governor was supporting him, either financially or politically, Goodell replied: "I haven't seen any as of yet." The 44-year-old senator said he didn't plan to ask President Nixon for help in his campaign, because "it doesn't help to call in outsiders."
