Girls from the ghetto girls from suburbia join hands and hearts in a program of Scouting that enriches all.

"Listen to us," one Scout says. "We see the problems. We realize the challenges. We think we can do the job. We want to try." "Scouting gives me a feeling that others want me and need me a belief in myself and respect for others," says a new Girl Scout.

And she with her sister Scouts, more than three million strong, speaks out and actively helps those less fortunate than herself. This is modern (lirl Scouting. On the Local Lev el Reader's Digest Foundation Grants show what the Girl Scouts arc up to these days. A $500 award was given senior Girl Scout Troop 109 of McKee City, for starting a library in Mizpah to serve local residents, many of whom have no way to get to another library. This project has been in operation for a year now, and is filling a long-felt need in the community.

The girls also conduct a story-hour for children. Senior Girl Scout Troop of Vine-land regularly visits Ancora State I los-pital to entertain the patients with songs. And for many years most Vine-land troops have been making favors for dinner trays at Newcomb Hospital. Toy Projects Still other Vineland Brownies and Girl Scouts have brought in their old toys, refurbished them and presented them to the Day Care Center and the Almond Road Colony. And Girl Scouts are in the majority when the community goes caroling for Tiny Tim Fund during the Yule season each year.

There's a Senior (lirl Scout in Mod-ford, who makes herself the special friend of a whole colony of elderly people in a housing development. She shops for them when the snow is deep, wheels them to parties in the project social hall and takes them back to their quarters later, does ironing for one handicapped woman, and makes their lives brighter with the warming radiance of her love and con cern. What can a Girl Scout do? Wonderful things. BUENA The Buena Regional Board of Education met last night with architects John Oliver and Ivan Becica of Pennsauk-en, who presented the nearly-completed plans for the proposed new Buena Regional High School. The school is planned for an 84-acre site at Weymouth and Friendship rds.

in Buena Vista Township. Construction costs have been estimated at $4,518,000. At a hearing in Trenton yesterday, the State Department of Local Finance approved the issuance of $4,358,000 in bonds to finance the construction. Approval of the bond issue has also been received from the State Department of Education. At last night's board meeting, Buena School superintendent Patrick DiDome-nico reported on a meeting with the Department of Local Government, at which time the need for a high school was explained.

Enrollment figures show a steady increase in the number of students in the school system, and Vineland High School has requested that pupils from all sending districts be "phased out" by the end of the 1970-71 school year. Buena now sends 367 students to grades 10, 11, and 12 in Vine-land. Board Solicitor Michael Capizola last night said that the next step is to submit the construction proposal and the bond issue to the voters. Tentative Board approval was given to an April 30 referendum on the bond issue. Capizola explained that bylaw the referendum cannot be scheduled Cahill to Stand As Abortion Battle Rages PLANNING PENNY FAIR Brownie and Girl Scouts at the Dane Barse School met with Holly Shores Girl Scout Council field advisor Mrs Joseph Andrews recently to plan the May 16 Juliet Lowe Penny Fair Workers include (from left) Jackie Richardson of Troop 16, Andrea Williams of Troop 215.

Applicants for staff positions are interviewed by the superintendent and the school principal, and their recommendations are submitted to the board for final approval.

The school calendar for 1970-71 was approved. It is designed to coincide as much as possible with Vineland's, to facilitate transportation between the two districts and for the convenience of families with children in both Buena and Vineland schools. Bids were received for six new school buses. They ranged from a low of $39,507 for six CMC buses with Ward bodies from Gallo's Garage, Vineland, lo a high net bid of $43,936 for International buses with Superior bodies from Shaw Equipment Co. of Newfield.

Other bidders included Petetti Motors, VVilliamstown; Gentilini Ford, Woodbine, Gratz Chevrolet of Millville, and Veit Chevrolet, Paulsboro.

The board last night approved the recommendations of Cleary Junior High School principal Mrs.

Rae Daniels for class scheduling for the 1970-71 school year, including a proposal that both enrichment courses and study halls be included in the junior high schedule if possible. Mrs. Daniels also reported on the results of a recent survey among teachers, parents, and students, asking for opinions on the present scheduling at Cleary. The survey included questions on whether the present random grouping of students is satisfactory, or whether an earlier system of grouping students according to ability is preferred. More than two-thirds of the parents answering the questionnaire preferred grouping according to ability.

The Board approved the utilization of a Child Study Team to aid in the testing and a study of special problems of children in the elementary schools. The team, available under the Migrant Program, will place special emphasis on the Collings Lakes School.

William T. Cahill. The governor told a news conference Tuesdav that he opposes legalizing abortion because of his religious convictions.

He said, however, that he wouldn't stand in the way of reform if he felt it was in the best interests of the citizens of the state. But Cahill said he would not be in the forefront of those demanding change in the state's archaic abortion statute. "I must concede I will not be leading the fight," he said. The governor was questioned about a bill introduced in the legislature Monday which would make major changes in liberalizing New Jersey's 121-year-old abortion law. Cahill, a Roman Catholic, said he would not comment on the specifics of the bill until he had read it thoroughly.

When asked about his general outlook on the problem, he said he was opposed to abortion because of his religion but would not rule out signing a reform bill into law if he believed it was a wise course for the people of the state. "My decision would not be based on those' persuasions," the new Republican governor said, referring to his religious convictions. Cahill is the father of eight children. He said he was "not familiar with the statistics" when asked if he felt illegal abortions and the need for reform were pressing problems. The new legislative proposal, which was the product of a year's study by a commission, proposed changing the law to permit abortions if the mental or physical health of the mother might be impaired if the child might be born deformed or if the child was conceived by rape or incest.

The current statute has been interpreted to permit abortions it the mother's life is in danger.
