The Record from Hackensack, New Jersey • 12

i IV THE RECORD, FRIDAY, JUNE 11, 1965 6 7 A2 Around The County Wagner Move Stirs Scramble Central Bergen Emerson The Mayor and Council awarded a $1,670,170 sewer contract for Stage 2 of the sanitary sewer project to D'Annunzio Brothers, Inc. of Scotch Plains, yesterday, despite objections from Councilman Harold Nagorsky who said he approved of the bid, but objected to acting on it without a direct communication to all homeowners invelved. No residents attended the public meeting, which convened at 10:30 P. following an executive session. West Bergen Allendale The Council agreed last night to put the question of rezoning Crestwood Lake's 100 acres to referendum November 2, and to postpone until November 11 action on a pending ordinance that would rezone the tract from residential to light industrial use.

The action came a surprise, and has almost certainly precluded the possibility that Duro-Test Corporation, a manufacturer of light bulbs, will locate a plant in the Borough. Southwest Bergen Saddle Brook Neither Benjamin S. Elmo, Republican, or Donald McCormick, Democrat, is entitled to the Class III ninth position on the Planning Board, Bergen County Judge C. Conrad Schneider ruled yesterday in Hackensack. Elmo was appointed last November by former Republican Mayor Benjamin Walenczyk, McCormick to the same position by Mayor Jeremiah F.

O'Connor when O'Connor took office in January. The court ruled that Class III members of the Planning Board must be elected by the entire Council. East Bergen Edgewater Stanley A. Tsigounis, president of Tidewater Reconstruction Corporation, said last night he will not withdraw his damage suit against the Citizens Committee, a local group that has tried to prevent the developer from constructing a $6-million, 20-story apartment house on River Road, north of Veterans Field. Tsigounis said he would press the suit until he receives formal acknowledgment from the committee that it will not appeal a May 21 decision by Superior Court Judge Robert A.

Matthews. The decision said there was no basis for committee charges that the State, the Borough Tidewater had acted illegally in land transactions involving 17 acres of riverfront property. E. BERLIN REDS FIREATWEST Miss Customs Police With Pistol Shots Berlin (UPI Eastern guards today opened fire at three West Berlin customs policemen on the border but missed. Customs police reported the Communists fired two machine-pistol shots from a watchtower across the 50-yard wide Teltow Canal.

The shots fell in the water. The western police said the shots were fired when the customs police while on patrol waved toward eastern police in the tower. Western headquarters reported eastern police last night captured at gunpoint a man trying to flee to the British sector. At Goettingen two young East Germans, 18 and 19, fled across barbed wire last night to freedom in the West, western cus-toms officials reported Their escape apparently went unnoticed by Communist sentries, the West German officials said. Student Held In Shooting Cordoba, Argentina Wi Po-lice sources said today a university student has been detained for questioning in the shootin gand wounding of S.

Consul Allison Temple Wana-maker. The sources said no charges had been made against Raul Cilento, 24, picked up at Rosario City, 200 miles to the north, and then brought here for questioning. He was picked up at the request of Cordoba police. Cilento was described as a student of architecture with no police record and no known political leanings. I from left.

A gentle monsoon rain was falling. The battle for Dong Xoai began before dawn yesterday when battle-hardened Viet Cong attacked in waves. An American survivor said it was assault after assault, with the valiant defenders slowly falling back.

By dawn yesterday the Communists had overrun the Special Forces compound where there were 24 Americans. Every American was wounded, killed, or missing as the defenders pulled back. Medical evacuation helicopters flying a desperate mission supported by armed HU-1B helicopters managed to land for 5 minutes and take out the wounded at 2 P. M. More than 100 helicopters flew in a battalion of Vietnamese Bangers in a move so daring it took the Viet Cong by surprise.

The choppers set down only 50 yards from Communist machine-gun positions. Rocket and machine-gun firing HU-lBs flew cover for the troopships while Skyraiders, B-57 jet bombers, and Navy Phantoms strafed Viet Cong positions only yards from the Rangers. Two of the fliers were wounded at this time. A desperate battle raged through the night under the lurid glow of flare illumination. By dawn today, the U.

S. helicopters were still encountering heavy ground fire. Another Vietnamese paratroop battalion was flown into the village this morning, and the Viet Cong broke off contact and slipped out toward the north. Moscow Radio Warns U. S.

About Vietnam Tokyo UP Moscow Radio in a broadcast beamed to Tokyo today warned that America's new Vietnam policy could touch off World War III. The radio simultaneously reiterated full support for North Vietnam which it described as its brother country. Date Remains For Election (Continued from Page 1) sa1 many Palisades Park citizens are on vacation during August and would be unable to vote. When Judge Brown, who is sitting temporarily in Morris-town, called for a hearing on the motion this morning, no attorney appeared to argue Pol-lotta's case. Judge Brown then dismissed the motion for failure of prosecution.

William V. Breslin, attorney for former Republican Mayor William J. Dorgan, was in the Morristown courtroom to argue for the August 3 date. Pollotta beat Dorgan last November by four votes. Superior Court Judge Morris Malech set aside the result of that election because of a number of illegal votes, and his decision was upheld recently by State Supreme Court.

Judge Brown, while he was sitting in Hackensack, had set an earlier date for the special election, but stayed that order pending the result of Pollotta's appeal of Judge Malech's deci sion. After the Supreme Court decision, the case was returned to Judge Brown. Castroites Bosch has bad repeated brushes with federal authorities because of raids and raid attempts against Cuba over the past several years. He has claimed in the past that air attacks were always staged from secret bases somewhere in the Caribbean. REPUBLICANS (Continued from Page 1) in the campaign of Senator Wayne Dumont Jr.

to unseat Democratic Governor Richard J. Hughes, the Majority Leader said. As of a month ago, he continued, Hughes scored only 52 per cent in a popularity poll of New Jersey citizens. "That's only two percentage points away from being knocked off. He's vulnerable, he can be taken all we need is togetherness." Dumont, asked fof comment on the Bergen boycott, said it wouldn't affect his election chances.

"I don't anticipate any trouble up there, he sam. Although Bergen is the banner Republican County in New Jersey, none of its delegates was named to any of the six convention committees. The list of com mittee members was mimeographed before the convention began and the boycott became apparent. Assemblyman Alfred N. Bead- leston of Monmouth County was named chairman of the platform committee, which is to draft the party's campaign promises for consideration at the convention next and final session June 24.

Other members of the com mittee are Senators Thomas J. Hillery of Morris County and Nelson F. Stamler of Union County, Assemblyman John L. White of Gloucester County, and Essex County G. O.

P. Chair man Andrew C. Axtell. Three Passaic County dele gates were named to other com mittees. Republican State Committeeman Clifford B.

Robbins, a prominent civic leader. Wagner said would not list potential candidates or express his own preferences now but last week top City Hall aides said he would give his blessings to Screvane if he pulled out. Screvane is unpopular with reform Democrats and some civil rights groups. Beame probably would have t' support of the Brooklyn Democratic organization and a substantial bloc of Jewish vo ters. Reform Democrats would sup port Adams, a founder of their movement, it is believea.

ine more militant of the City's re form Democrats, however, liely would back Ryan, West Side Manhattan Congressman. Ryan has scheduled a news conference tomorrow, and one of his aides said he would announce candidacy at that time. Representative Emanuel Cel- ler of Brooklyn, dean of the U. S. house of representatives suggested Hogan as the best candidate.

Wagner likely would be able to count on the Manhattan and Queens County organizations and anti organization district leaders in badly-split Brooklyn for any choice be might make. It appears unlikely at the present time the Manhattan and Queens County organizations would get together with the anti-Wagner forces, led by Assemblyman Stanley Steingut, head of the Brooklyn organization, and former Representative Charles A. Buckley, Bronx County chief. Steingut and Buckley have been allied with Kennedy. The primary election will be held September 14, and three or four rival slates could shape up by then.

Liberal Party leaders have said they would give serious consideration to fusion If Wagner did not run. In past mayoral elections, there have been to 370,000 votes cast on the Liberal line. Such a vote could mean a margin of victory for Lindsay. Governor Nelson A. Rockefeller of New York said, however, that he did not think Wagner's decision would have any major effect on Lindsay's campaign.

REDSOTTACK A LIVING HELL Wounded U. S. Officer Recalls Confusion Saigon "It was really hell for 14 hours, and I wouldn't want to live through those first 45 minutes again," said Second Lieutenant Charles Williams of Fayetteville, N. C. Williams, 31, was in charge of the U.

S. Army Special Forces camp that Communist guerrillas overran at Dong Xoai early yesterday morning. He was sleeping in a building with seven other Americans when the Viet Cong began shelling the camp with mortars. "Every American was either killed or wounded," he said from a hospital bed in Saigon. "We suffered 50 per cent of our casualties during the initial bar rage." Williams took shrapnel wounds in the arms and legs.

A mortar landed a few feet away from him. "My first reaction was to get out of there, get the troops or ganized, and repel the attack. We were in no position to be incapacitated. It was a matter of life and death," he said. "My men were wounded and dying or already dead.

It was mass confusion. Williams said nearly all of about 100 Vietnamese troops with him were wiped out in the futile effort to hold the camp. "We managed to beat them back until daylight," he con tinued. "But then they began coming over the walls. Snipers were inside the compound." The survivors abandoned the camp at dawn made a break for the district post.

Gathering Keegan and Senator Anthony J. Grossi (Passaic), chairman of the convention, are opposed to the State income tax advo cated by Governor Hughes Woodson and McGann favor the tax, and Perrapato and Mrs. Mitchell have taken no posi tion. The platform drawn by the committee will come up for adoption at the closing session of the convention June 24, with the tax plank expected to prove the only possible source oi fric tion. Earlier in the day.

Democra tic State Chairman Thorn Lord was re-elected, to a second 4 year term by the State Com mittee. Hudson State Commit teewoman Alice Dolan was elected vice-chairman to re place Mrs. Katharine Elkus White, now U. S. Ambassador to Denmark.

Perrapato was named to the State Committee's 10-member executive committee. Despite Bergen's importance in State Republican affairs, none (Continued from Page 1) peared somewhat shy and reserved as Magistrate Peter R. Fornabai, Police Chief Theodore E. Grieco and many policemen and detectives showered him with praise. The spectacular chase, during which Naiomo hurtled himself over a retaining wall to a 30' foot fall, came to an end atop a roof in Edgewater where Nai omo finally tackled the taller 6-foot suspect.

Appearing badly bruised and battle-weary, Naiomo was given a special chair at the front of the courtroom as the details of the case unfolded. Special Patrolman Warren Carlstedt testified he first saw Semora after two persons in Palisade Amusement Park complained he made Indecent gestures. Semora was held for Grand Jury action on these complaints. Carlstedt said he attempted to apprehend Semora and the chase began. Semora ran out of the park toward Route 5.

Patrolman Carlstedt said he was losing ground when Naiomo drove by and agreed to help. The two drove to a wooded area on Route 5 and left the. car. The Patrolman started up the cliffs and Naiomo moved further down the road. Within minutes, Naiomo spotted the defendant and chased him.

Through heavy brush and wooded areas, Naiomo closed the gap and finally reached the defendant, veloped, and A struggle de-Semora broke away. The chase continued and Semora leaped over a retaining wall and continued running. Naiomo wasn't that lucky. He jumped over the wall further away, landed atop a tree. and then fell on some rocks 30 feet below.

Badly bruised, he continued the chase. Again he collared Semora, but the defendant punched him and broke away once more. Still Naiomo kept up the pursuit. Finally, he saw the suspect reach a rooftop in Edgewater and overtook him again. Patrolman Carlstedt arrived to see Naiomo standing over Semora.

Magistrate Fornabai appeared stunned by Naiomo's determination. He asked him, "How did you feel after that fall?" Naiomo answered: "I knew then I wasn't going to let him get away. I was mad." "You have won the admiration and respect of this community," Fornabai told Naiomo. "I hope New Yorkers sit up and take notice what kind of people we have here in New Jersey and what they can do when a policeman needs help." Naiomo said. "I felt I did the right thing and I would do it all over again.

The policeman is there to help us. The same thing goes for us." Naiomo brought a smile to the Magistrate's face when be remarked that he is now on jury duty in Hudson County. Hardartl Six Anti (Continued from Page 1) the men were planning to load the bombs on a B-26 World War II bomber for a raid against the Castro regime. But the State Department's Cuban Affairs Office in Miami said no aircraft was seized in the raid which took place near Zellwood, a farming village northwest of Orlando. A spokesman indicated all six were arrested at a house there with the bombs.

They were specifically charged with conspirir.g to export munitions of war illegally. The four Cubans remained in the custody of U. S. Marshal Jack F. Peeples.

The case will go to a grand jury, presumably at Tampa, officials said. WIDNALL URGES POUCYON BIAS Asks No Discrimination At Art Center Washington (I'PI) Repre sentative William Widnall N. today asked President Johnson to make sure there is no racial discrimination in the operation of the John F. Kennedy Center for the Perform ing Arts, under construction here. In an article in the Congres sional Record, Widnall said the President could act under the 1964 civil riehts act to withhold federal funds from the Center if the act is violated.

"The time has arrived for the President to establish a firm art policy for the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, which will leave no doubt in any one's mind that it will truly reflect the views of our country at large; such a policy will unite our people and ad vance our foreign policy, Widnall said. Widnall's remarks apparently were prompted by a recent letter to the New York Times signed by Thomas A. Waggoner who said no Negroes appeared w'ith the Metropolitan Opera National Company during a State Department performance May 3 and a White House performance May 4. The Waggoner letter said the performances of the Metropoli tan isational Company were sponsored by the trustees and the President Cabinet.

Waggoner also said there is only one Negro, who is in the chorus, in the national company of 63 singers. Widnall placed in the Congressional Record a letter from Roger L. Stevens, board chairman of the Kennedy Center trustees, who said "This is the first time I have heard any objections to the policies of the Metropolitan Opera because, as far as I know, talent is the foremost consideration in any selection they make." Stevens also noted that the national company was under the complete control and management of the Metropolitan Opera Association. of its delegates was named to any of the six G. 0.
