That fact will be very influential on the County Committee." Clark, 41, has been a district leader in Harlem for several years.

He is a consultant with the firm of Clark, Phipps, Clark and Harris. His father, who runs the firm, is the noted psychologist Kenneth Clark. Ex-Rangel aide Mathews, 36, is with the city's Community Development Agency. Prior to that he was an aide to Rep. Charles Rangel (D-L-Manhattan).

Most Harlem political insiders had waited to see whether Clark would give an early endorsement to Paterson, the son of the former New York Secretary of State Basil Paterson. Paterson was supported by Rangel, but Clark elected to go with West Sider Phil Reed. Clark as been feuding with Rangel for years. "They (Mathews' supporters) have accused me of being untrustworthy but they have not accused me of betraying the community's trust," Clark said yesterday when asked about the feud.

After the vote on Sunday, Rangel promptly endorsed Mathews and since that time has been working behind the scenes to garner support for him. Meanwhile, in another political development, Galen Kirkland, who lost out to David Paterson on Sunday, said yesterday he would challenge Paterson on the Liberal Party line.
