His exhibits have been honored in cities such as New Orleans, Jacksonville and Oklahoma City and he has been a guest on the Today Show, Mike Douglas Show and will appear in about Iwo weeks on Johnny Carson. As Bradley so accurately described bis work Monday, he has -added a smile lo liielal sculpture." He refuses to submit lo the traditional black a i a i metal instruments which people look al bill do not really understand. Instead lie "wants to create happiness." There is nothing more rewarding to this artist than lo see someone walk away from bis exhibit with a smile on his face.

The keys lo his abounding a i i a and "simplicity." Perhaps his greatest asset is his faith in Ihe human race, a quality which materialism is washing into an ideal of Ihe past. 'Being aware of people is the whole thing," the artisl a i a a a i i a names but will allow himself to become a part of society. "My individuality is too important," he said, "it's vital lo my survival and I will not surrender it." Reflects reality The bes. way to describe the artisl is to describe his work, which reflects so much Ihe reality of Ihe everyday world which is being pushed aside, because this is where his personality lies.

Walpack Township officials Monday won the first round in a court proceeding initiated at 9:30 a.m. to prevent an Aug. 4 rock festival on a 400- acre farm. Frank Bright, acting as attorney for the township sought an injunction to bar the festival. During the day-long arguments in Morris County Court here, Superior Court Judge Joseph Stamler denied a motion from the festival promoters to quash the injunction.

Stamler, however, did not on the township's request for an injunction and said the hearing will be continued today so additional testimony could be heard. Bright argued the township's zoning ordinance forbids a music festival operation in a residential-agriculture zone. He also said the festival will be a menace to (he heallh of the community and a public nuisance. Stamler said that there is a the festival would jeopardize the public heallh and welfare of Walpack Township and Sussex County residents. Stamler further said that regardless of Ihe validity and application of the zoning ordinance, "anylhing that unduly interferes with the common riglit may be declared a nuisance." Herbert Spivak, one of the promoters of the festival testified he did not feel there would be any problems at (he festival site.

The site is on the property of Dr. A.D. a i located across a a River Bushkill, Pa.

Ninth Stroudsburg, for transportation from the parking areas to the festival site.

He said the company would provide up to 300 buses and will be operated 24 hours per day. Spivak could not answer specific questions regarding a i for a a security and medical facilities. Hackcttstown attorney Eugene Haberle, representing the promoters, asked Stamler to allow the defense several days grace in which to make arrangements with officials of these companies to appear in court and testify. Stamler said he would allow the delay only on condition that Ihe promoters agree not to sell anymore tickets or take further action to complete the sile of the festival. He later said one day's delay in the proceeding could mean 10,000 tickets sold and there would be "no way to call them off." Would agree Haberle said his clients would agree, but only if the township were required to post a bond so the promoters would not lose the money they had already put into the event.

Spivak estimated some $175,000 has already been spent from the over budget in excess of $600,000. Stamler said he could not and would not order Walpack Township, with a population of 300 persons to raise a bond of He then ordered the hearing continued today. Today's testimony is expected to come from officials of the various companies involved in supplying services to Ihe festival site.
