CITV HALL Pope Tu5entv-ij By ALBERT BUSH-BROWN (The writer, associate professor of architectural history at M.I.T.. recently was mined president of the Rhode Island School of Design. He is co-author of "Architecture of Measured by any standard the competition to select an architect for Boston's new city hall was fully successful. The initial 256 entries brought new talent forward nationwide.

Much of it was young and unknown. Often it was fresher than the famous names. The final entries forced a distinguished jury to choose one from among eight strong and varied solutions. No process other than Giles said the incident probably resulted from charge made last night by Rep. William Lonjjworth (R-Methuen) that Mrs.

Giles was being chaufleured by a State trooper to stores where she could obtain trading stamps. The commissioner said the charge was made during a House debate on his request for $340,000 for 50 more troopers to patrol the highway. Giles said there is no truth to the charge concerning his wife. "My aide, Sgt Frank Tra-bucco, does not serve as a personal chauffeur for Mrs. Giles.

She uses public transportation just as everyone else docs," he said. A former GOP colleague of Giles, Rep. Longworth vigorously opposed the $340,000 budget increase during the House debate. He declared that the would eventually be increased to $500,000 in order to clothe, feed and house the 50 extra troopers. "The state troopers are very fine gentlemen," said Long-worth.

"They are very well-groomed and well-fed. In fact, we have one who weighs 335 pounds. We have more troopers than we know what to do with now. They are riding double and triple on the highways." Commissioner Giles explained that the troopers ride alone until 10 p.m. and then double up in the cruisers for their own protection.
