-gJ Somerville Principal Asks Tech Tourney Fallout The headmaster of Somerville High School today recommended to the superintendent of schools that Somerville no longer accept an invitation to the Tech Basketball Tournament Albert H. Giroux made the recommendation as a result of vandalism involving hundreds of students Thursday night in which windows were smashed in stores, houses, autos and service stations. The destructive march began when teen-age basketball fans left the Tech Tourney at the Boston Garden about 10:30 p.m. after their team lost a first round game to Lynn Classical and lasted until after midnight. Several thousand dollars worth of damage was caused along McGrath highway.

Included in the de struction were some 22 windows in the Registry of Motor Vehicles Building at 100 Nashua st, in Boston. Three teen-agers were arrested in front of a dwelling on Boston Somerville, after the residents identified them as the persons who smashed several windows in the house. Vandalism appears to be an annual plague following the Tech Tourney.

Associated Press VATICAN CITY Pope Paul VI today named a 47-year-old New Yorker, Auxiliary Bishop Terence James Cooke, to succeed the late Francis Cardinal Spellman as Roman Catholic archbishop of New York. Archbishop Cooke had been one of Cardinal Spellman's auxiliaries in New York since Sept. 15, '1965.

His appointment was a surprise to observers at i V-iSi Found guilty along with Patriarca were his alleged Rhode Island lieutenant Henry Tameleo, 65, of Cranston and Ronald Cassesso, 35, of Somerville. Jury foreman Neil Wal-lask, a draftsman from Maiden, answered guilty to all counts against the defendants as they were read off by Court Clerk Austin Jones. The three were convicted on the testimony of Joseph (Barboza) Baron, self-admitted loanshark and gun-for-hire, who said he and Casesso were hired by Patriarca and Tameleo in 1965 to mur llliwi RAYMOND PATRIARCA the Vatican, since his name had not been among those mentioned as a likely successor to Cardinal Spellman. Vatican circles consider him unusually young to be given the richest and most powerful archdiocese in America. Cardinal Spellman died on Dec.

2 at the age of 78. The Most Rev. John J. Maguire, Spellman's 62-year-old coadjutor archbishop and second in command, became administrator of the archdiocese until the Pope named a successor to the cardinal. Archbishop Cooke presumably will be elevated to the College of Cardinals at the consistory the Pope is expected Jto hold soon to name new princes of the church.

Patriarca was released in his original $50,000 bond. Both Tameleo and Cassesso remained in custory.

Tameleo is held without bail pending trial in Suffolk County in connection with the 1065 gangland murder of Edward M. "Teddy" Deegan in Chelsea. Cassesso is serving a 9 to 12 year sentence at Norfolk Prison Colony for armed robbery. The jury panel interrupted its deliberations twice to return to the courtroom to ask the judge questions concerning the law. The jury returned with its verdict in the courtroom at 3:45 p.m.

Seated in the spectators' pews were FBI agents Paul Eico and Dennis Condon who first persuaded Baron to tell his story, which resulted in the indictments of the trio. der Marfeo. The 12 male jurors spent almost four hours in deliberation before returning with their verdicts. Judge Francis J. W.

Ford said he would impose sen- tences on the defendants two weeks from Monday, Mar. 25. Patriarca with two counts, Tameleo with three and Cassesso with one, each faces a maximum penalty of five years imprisonment on each count. All three were accused of conspiracy in the five-day trial. Tameleo was charged in two counts and Patriarca in one of causing a phone to be used or using a phone in the transmission of information across state lines for the purpose of committing a crime.

The three defendants showed no emotion as the verdicts were rendered. Judge Ford denied a motion by U.S. Atty. Paul Markham, who prosecuted A Busy Day at the Mass. General ARCHBISHOP COOKE (AP) church affairs.
