Tri-Citv Efforts Experts View Urban Renewal provided with money to build structures. JD The three said they can buy properties, clear and sell land, encourage and provide space for commercial services, they said, but the services themselves such as stores must be provided by others. The council paid tribute to an Allentown resident who recently retired after a long career of public service. John A. Borowski, past "manages of the Allentown office of the State Bureau of Employment Security, received a certificate of appreciation for his stage government service and involvement in a broad range of Lehigh Valley services.

BEDSPREADS ALL STORES dents attending the college during the second semester, 370 students, 12.1 per cent are from The current status of urban renewal efforts in the tri-city area was described for social agency executives and staff members yesterday during a Lehigh Valley Community Council agency breakfast. Executive directors of the redevelopment authorities introduced by J. Richard Willauer, community relations director of the Easton Redevelopment Authority, were William A.

Sharf of Allentown, A.C. Concilio of Bethlehem, and William Hawkins of Easton. Sharf declared that urban renewal, particularly on a national level, has been overtalked and underfunded. He said urban renewal must focus on human problems, rather than buildings. ARA's long-term goals, he said, include helping residents attain improved family lifestyles.

He outlined the future program goals of collar-area rehabilitation, explaining that residents of the area helped shape the collar-area plan that focuses on retention and rehabilitation, rather than demolition of buildings. Sharf said the Hamilton Mall construction relates more to residential needs than to commercial needs. If the heart of the city is in poor shape, he said, the neighborhoods like the rest of the body will not be healthy. He suggested that the key to successful urban renewal is a closely coordinated working relationship with social agencies, city government departments and the residents. In Bethlehem, Concilio said, Central Business District renewal will not result in massive relocation such as dictated by the Northampton Heights program.

He cited the Northampton Heights program of the early 1960s as an excellent, unified community approach that met many of the social needs of the neighborhood residents. In reviewing the CBD timetable and efforts, he said Bethle-hem has decided the majority of building" clearance will- come only when there is commitment for a new structure. He invited the continued cooperation of social agencies in meeting residents' needs. Hawkins told the group urban renewal programs cannot continue to acquire and clear lands. While clearance programs have been much used in the past, he said, rehabilitation pro-grams will be the primary future aim of renewal.

The Easton Redevelopment Authority's Neighborhood Development Program will rehabilitate areas, razing only the structures that cannot be saved, Hawkins said. All three directors voiced concern regarding- housing, shopping and transportation, especially for the elderly. They said all renewal plans consider these issues, but redevelopment authorities are not Northampton County.

Chess Federation had not given a final answer on requested $35,000 guarantee that Fischer would appear in Belgrade. The bond was set by Yugoslav authorities after American grandmaster Bobby Fischer demanded a share in any profits organizers might accrue, in addition to the $138,500 prize money. He was turned down by both Belgrade and by Reykjavik, Iceland, the other match site. The American chess group said initially that it did not have $35,000 to put up. Soviet chess authorities, however, had agreed to furnish a similar bond to guarantee the appearance of its world champion, Boris Spassky.
