By ARTHUR MULLIGAN Farmers on Long Island, in New Jersey and upstate will be hoping for rain this weekend but millions of other persons will be asking the heavens to wait at least until the three-day Labor Day holiday is over.

August Was Dry "Remember, farmers and homeowners with parched lawns are people too, and they may be off enjoying- the weekend also," he said.

"They, of course, will have mixed emotions, but even nature, in all its wisdom, can't please everybody." Seyfert said that August, after six consecutive months of above-normal rainful, was the fourth driest August since 1935. This August we had 1.92 inches of rain, compared to the normal 4.4 inches. The driest ever was 1964, with 0.24 inches.

The Autor.iObile Club of New Teachers' Contract Snagged, Mot on Pay But Free Time By MICHAEL HANRAHAN Albert Shanker, president of the United Federation of Teachers, said yesterday that negotiations for a new contract between the union and the Board of Education were at a "standstill" on noneconomic issues as he put it, to apply one or the The key obstacles in the bar other principle to every one of the union demands. He said the board is refusing to grant the teachers due process in maintaining that "Discipline and even dismissal because of a supervisor's pique or prejudice is part of the fortunes of life." Shanker warned that.unless the board changes its position, the union will be on strike at the opening of school on Sept. 11.

A High-Bise Over 42d By OWEN MORITZ Plans for a 52-story apartment house gaining are reported to be a dispute over use of teachers' free time preparation and admins-trative periods and the question of one-day illnesses. Under one of the board's contract proposals, teachers, like students, would have to bring in a note from their doctor after they are absent because of illness.

A spokesman for the board said that- $32 million of the school system's $2 billion budget last year was spent on substitutes. The board is demanding that teachers limit their activities during classroom preparation periods to proressionally related matters, and is seekrng to have a definition of such activities inserted into the contract so that principals can more closely supervise the teachers. It is also demanding the power to have teachers assigned to hall and door security duties by their principals during the administrative periods. Shanker said that a proposal The Winners Winning number In the weekly lotteries: NEW YORK: 248087 NEW JERSEY: 426284 CONNECTICUT: 36139 MASSACHUSETTS: 710844 PENNSYLVANIA: 608446 to rise across 42d St. the Tudor City complex the first building- to straddle a commercial artery in Manhattan have Albert Shanker Talks at a "standstill" by the Board that teachers be required to report to the principal on their activities during the administrative periods is "just not acceptable." In a report to the UFT membership, Shanker said the board 'Permitting Mr.

Helmsley to build on the air rights over 42d St. would set a new precedent for New York City involving significant legal questions which are not easily solved." commented Jaequelin T. Robertson, director of the Office of Midtown Planning and Development. However, it would give us the opportunity for strict control over the type, design and configuration of the building." Model Was Submitted A Planning Commission spokesman that Helmsley. who heads the Helmsley-Spear organization, has submitted a model of the proposed skyscraper.

But she said the proposal is considered to be in the explorative stage only as commission officials wrestled with the idea of air rights and their implications. Tudor City covers a bluff running from E. 40th to E. 43d from First Ave. to a point halfway down 42d St.

toward Second Ave. It has its own street Tudor City Place which bridges 42d St. It consists of 12 buildings and includes a 600-room hotel, all in Tudor design. The buildings face four interior parks two public and two private. The backs of the buildings are almost windowless because, when they were built in 1927, First Ave.

consisted of decaying tenements and Tudor City's 3,300 families are mainly upper-income, many of them paying exceptionally low rents because of the development's history of rent eontrol. has "cited two rigid principles been drawn up by real estate titan Harry B. Helmsley and submitted to the Planning Commission. Helmsley, it was learned yesterday, wants to build between 480 and 650 luxury units in one building on air rights over 42d half a block east of Second Ave. and facing the United Nations.

Helmsley, regarded as the city's premier real estate promoter, bought the Tudor City complex last year for a reported $36 million from the Fred L. French Organization. French built Tudor City in 1927 as one of the nation's first efforts at urban renewal. Dig Up the Parks? Soon after the purchase, Helmsley announced that he would dig up two private parks, each 15,000 square feet in size, within the Tudor City grounds and build two skyscrapers on them. The two proposed buildings would be within the zoning requirements, and therefore would need no approval from any city agency.

As an alternative, Helmsley hihted he might let the parks stand if given permission to build the 52-story tower over 42d St. for its planned paternalism: Any demand touching educational pol icy-making is nonnegotiable. Any demand affecting a management prerogative is nonnegotiable. He said that the union is in agreement with these principles, and that teachers have no need for any more administrative re Conn. Pa.
