NORFOLK Va. AP) Accusing big petroleum companies of trying to add at least $20 billion to the price of natural gas, President Carter threatened yesterday to veto the energy bill now before Congress if it conflicts with the interests of the people. "I hate to veto a bill that a Democratic Congress passes," Carter declared, "but yoa can depend on it I'll protect your interests when the bill comes to my desk." Speaking to between 3,000 and 4,000 cheering, whistling supporters of liberal Democratic gubernatorial candidate Henry Howell at a rally in Norfolk's Azalea Gardens, Carter endorsed Howell's populist and pro-consumer stance and said the candidate is campaigning to "keep the big boys honest." "We have the same problem in Washington about powerful companies having too much influence," Carter said. Referring to the petroleum lobby's efforts to add immediate deregulation of natural gas to the energy bill, the President said: "The gas companies are very powerful in Washington as you well know, and want to deregulate immediately and add a tremendous cost for the American public $20 billion to the price of natural gas already discovered in Alaska alone." In a Senate test vote Thursday, an effort to scrap an industry-backed natural gas deregulation bill failed by a 52-46 vote. The House already has passed Carter's gas-pricing plan, which would continue controls on gas shipped across state lines while lifting the price ceiling from the current $1.45 per thousand cubic feet to $1.75.

The President said his energy proposals call for an end to regulation of natural gas prices over time and include "enough incentive and encouragement for exploration." He likened his fight against the petroleum lobby to Howell's battle to abolish automatic fuel adjustment provisions that Howell says unfairly raise electric bills in Virginia. "I don't want to see an uncontrolled monopoly," Carter said. "Henry Howell understands this." Meanwhile, the Senate moved yesterday toward making a natural-gas deregulation proposal less costly to homeovraers but shied away from a new test vote on the rival gas-pricing plan proposed by Carter. As a result, the senators remained at an impasse over the natural gas See GAS, pageA20 GOP bOSS Hap Farley dead at 75 VENTNOR (AP) Former state Sen. Frank S.

"Hap" Farley, one of the last of the country's old-time political bosses, died in his sleep yesterday morning at his home here. He was 75. The death came just several hours after Farley spoke at a church dinner in Atlantic City, where he gained his reputation as "Boss of the Boardwalk" from his powerful South Jersey Republican machine that rivaled the Jersey City Democratic machine of Frank "I Am The Law" Hague. Farley served a record 31 years in the New Jersey Senate before corruption charges led to his defeat at the polls in 1971. He was credited with bringing to South Jersey the Garden State Parkway.

Milltown RAINY-DAY PEOPLE With a richly decorated hot-air balloon blocking out a portion of yesterday's cloudy and drizzly skies, hundreds of Rutgers fans popped out their umbrellas and put on raincoats as they watched the Scarlet Knights win their second straight game. BUT BUSINESS BOOMS By JOHN BRUNS Home News sports writer PRINCETON The Rutgers University football program in the Frank Bums era has placed strong emphasis on recruiting New Jersey talent, and yesterday two Central Jersey scholastic products combined on a 30-yard touchdown pass, the decisive play, as the Scarlet Knights shaded arch rival Princeton, 1M, before 19,500 fans in damp and dreary Palmer Stadium. The 30-yard pass from Bert Kosup of Stevens High School in Edison to Walt Hynoski of Manville capped a nine-play, 63-yard drive in the third period, breaking a 3-3 tie.

Thereafter, Princeton made two strong bids to overtake the Scarlet in the fourth period. Trying to snap a home-field losing streak which now extends through 12 games, the Tigers reached the Rutgers 5 and settled for Chris Howe's 22-yard field goal. Later in the period, Princeton, powered by the determined rushes of tailback Bobby Isom, was inside the Rutgers 20 again. But on a thrust into the line, fullback Gary Larson took a solid hit and coughed up the football. Rutgers' freshman defensive end Phil Parkins made the receovery at the 17.

With only 1:47 remaining to play, the See CENTRAL, pageB! Some of Gorson's customers charged the listings were out of date and rented, or that the advertisements in newspapers by the firm did not match what was in the listings, or that Gorson failed to give a refund to dissatisfied customers after an unsuccessful "bona fide effort" at seeking a place to rent, as the law now requires. As the complaints stepped up the state Real Estate Commission began to investigate, and as a result, Gorson lost his New Jersey real estate license at a hearing before the commission Sept. 6. Gorson did not appear at the hearing. According to Saksman, he is out of the country.

The commission charged that in applying to take the test for his state real estate license in 1975. Gorson failed to mention he had been convicted on April 2 of that year in Lee County. for operating a real estate business without a Florida real estate license, according to the commission order to show cause. The commission also charged Gorson with failing to note he had been arrested in New Jersey, when he applied to renew his real estate license here. According to the show cause order Gorson was arrested in Edison on Sept.

John Saksman, a law clerk and investigator for the New Jersey Real Estate Commission. "If there wasn't a housing shortage we wouldn't have these problems." Home Locators, a rental location operation that charged $40 for access to its list of apartments and houses for rent, went out of business Aug. 9 and closed its offices, including one at 19H1 Route 27 in Edison.

The owner. Charles Gorson, left behind a number of angry clients. He left the Central Better Business Bureau of New Jersey with a file "loaded with complaints" about his operation, bureau director Ed Ledford said. When Home Locators first moved into this area in 1975, Ledford said, Gorson was in frequent contact with the bureau to rectify complaints and keep a good name. Ledford said his office monitored the advertisements Home Locators placed in local newspapers for a period in 1976, and found 40 per of those apartments and houses were already rented while the ads were still running.

"We decided that wasn't good, but it wasn't that bad," he said. In recent months though, complaints about Home Locators to the bureau and the state Real Estate Commission, and some to the Middlesex County Consumer Affairs Departments, stepped up. By MICHAEL HOYT Home News staff writer Every day in New Jersey, hundreds of people are looking for apartments and houses to rent. And every day scores of them pay money to a new kind of business, rental location operations, for help. Some of those people find homes and some just feel cheated.

Watchdog agencies say some rental location operations in the state are less ethical than others. And though some agency spokesmen defend them, others doubt whether they provide a real service at all. But there is no doubt business is booming. When the owner of one such operation in the Raritan Valley area closed down his firm a firm that was earning a poor reputation just before losing his state real estate license, two more operations moved in during the same week to fill in the gap. The owners of both new operations Home Rentals and Homes Unlimited promise to deliver what they advertise up-to-date lists of places to rent.

Both, however, have already had minor skirmishes with watchdog agencies. "They are a very new animal," said GREAT TENNIS SALE 1 MONDAY ONLY THE RACQUET SHOP RT. 34.
