Pollard presiaea. the State golf enterprise is not ob liged to pay. It is also complicated by the freezing of the value of the real estate holdings in the prevailing depressed real estate market." In another section the application refers to the "ruinous competition by the Park Commission." Mineola, Nov. 2 A startled few spectators in Nassau County Court here yesterday, a few lawyers and clerks and Judge Cortland A. Johnson, were all who saw Everett Applegate and Mrs.

Mary Frances reigmon, accused in the arsenic murder of Mrs. Ada Applegate of Baldwin, appear before the court for arraignment on additional in dictments. Unobstrusively, Mrs. Creighton and Applegate were escorted to the court from their cells in the county Jail across the street. It was the first time they have been out of the jau since Judge Johnson sent them there three weeks ago to await trial ior murder.

New Witnesses The new Indictments charge the pair with first degree murder; the same alleged murder on which their pleas of not guilty already have been recorded. But since the old indictments, now dismissed in lieu of the new one, were handed down, new statements were made before the grand Jury, it was learned yesterday. Thus, the indictments on which Judge Johnson ordered plea of not KUiltV recorded fnr Annlnrratn nn4 aiu Mrs. Creighton yesterday were duplicates of the first ones, except for the addition of new witnesses, Patrolman Robert Drydon of the' Second Precinct; George A. Olsen, an official of the New York Telephone Company Nathaniel Burchill, official court stenographer, who took statements from Applegate early in the prosecution efforts.

The statement was 100 pages long and was said to be considered an important document against him. Patrolman Drydon, it was revealed, responded to the dual household of the Creightons and Apple-gates at 12 Bryant Place, Baldwin with an inhalator the day Mrs Applegate died, Sept. 27. Free for Seconds The effect of the proceedings thus left the Applegate murder defendants exactly where they were before the surprise arraignments, but actually they enjoye dthe feeling of being free of murder charges for a fraction of a minute, the space of time between dismissing the old indictment and handing down the new one. District Attorney Martin W.

Littleton insisted the proceeding was entirely for technical reasons and indicated no step toward disposition of the case. He believes the new indictment, backed by more complete grand Jury minutes, will be a stronger legal weapon against the two suspects. More than 50 Queens clergymen will speak on "The Great Heritage of the Church" from their pulpits tomorrow, the opening day of the Queens Christian Movement. Sermons topics for succeeding Sundays will be "The Christian Fellowship," "Christian Worship," and "The Christian Leader, Jesus Christ." The plan was adopted at the recent convention of the Queens Federation of Churches in an effort to reach the unchurched and to arose greater loyalty among members. Dr.

Edward W. Cross, pastor of the Union Congregational Church of Richmond Hill, heads the program committee. Assisting are Dr. Robert A. Watson of the Jamaica First Reformed Church, president at, the Queen Federation of Churches; Dr.

Thomas H. Mackonize of tha Flushing Reformed Church, the Rev. C. Lawson Willard Jr. of the St.

James Episcopal Church of Elm hurst, and the Rev. William C. Bennett, executive secretary of the Fed eration.

and 21st Long Island City. Jamaica Players Stage 2 Comedies Two one-act comedies were presented last night by the Independ-" ent Dramatic Association of Jamaica at the MorTis Park Council, K. of clubhouse, 110-06 Atlantic Richmond Hill. "Music In His Hair," a play In three scenes, was written and directed by John J. Polian.

Leo A. Hamel directed "The Children's Half-Hour," written by Miss Virginia Callow. Aroused over the proposed construction of the $2,700,000 Wood-haven express viaduct, merchants and residents of two West End communities prepared today for one of the most intensive civic campaigns yet waged in Queens to kill the project before it reaches the Board of Estimate for hearing. Determined to win prompt action, the Anti-Viaduct Committee of Woodhaven and Ozone Park, organized ten days ago, sought Borough President Harvey's assistance today. Early next week members of the committee will canvass residents for signatures to a petition against the construction of the overhead highway proposed by the Queens Topographical Bureau as an alternate project to the widening of Woodhaven Boulevard to relieve traffic to resorts on the Rockaway peninsula.

Civic leaders first learned of the plans when exclusive notice was given of the project in The iagle several wks ago. Objctors Massing Thy lost notime in voicing their objection and today more than a dozen units have massed their strength in opposition. The Anti- Viaduct Committee, with John Rapp as chairman, was set up as the spearhead of the attack. More than 400 persons on Monday night crowded the meeting hall at 95-25 Jamaica Woodhaven, to voiie their objections. The headquarters of the group, at 96-21 Atlantic Woodhaven, proved inadequate for the campaigners.

Objectors claim the project would be a monstrosity In the communities and that it will afford no benefit. The 50-foot highway, according to plans of the Queens Topographical Bureau and the Queens Planning Commission, will begin at Woodhaven Boulevard and Myrtle In Glendale, skirt Victory Field to pass through Forest Park, proceed along 98th St. and then cross Atlantic Ave. at 97th where it will begin its diagonal path across Ozone Park toward its terminus in a ramp at Woodhaven Boulevard and its intersections with Cross Bay Boulevard and Liberty Ave. See Harm to Values Mr.

Rapp said touy that the highway will be detrimental to the welfare of the twin communities. "It will ruin property values." he declared, "for it will destroy business and our residential areas. It will be nothing but a monstrosity, blocking out lights." Homeowners, landowners, mer-: chants and their tenants echoed thus opinion. More than 200 persons have been aligned to the campaign at this time. Mr.

Rapp expects at least 800 others to in the lists in a short time. Joseph Meade, president of the Subway Association of Union Course, declared today: "The construction of this proposed highway across a territory which has been known for years for its fine homes and fine people is not only a risgraceful condition, but it wil lnot be of any benefit whatsoever to those people or that territory. The fact that such a plan has the acqueacene of our duly elected city officials is amazing to me." On the Anti-Viaduct Committee are Harry F. Sullivan, secretary: Martin Gross treasurer, and Robert Settgas, publicity secretary. The executive committee includes former Park Commissioner James F.

Pasta of Woodhaven; Mr, Meade, John J. Walsh, Theodore Sweeney, Anthony Moors. Edwin G. Phelps. Joseph Ray, Alfred Ball and Frank O'Grien.

Organizations enlisted in the drive Include the South Side Allied Civic Association, the 5th A. D. Independent Forum, the Oscawanna Regular Democratic Club of Woodhaven, the Subway Association of Union Course, Woodhaven and Richmond Hill; the Woodhaven Exempt Firemen's Association, the Cavour Democratic Club of Ozone Park, the Woodhaven Republican Club, the Homestead Civic Association and the Yarmouth Democratic Club, both of Woodhaven, and the Woodhaven Non-Partisan Association. 2 HELD IN BURGLARY Hicksville, Nov. 2 Larry Acqua-Una, 19, of 63 Hazel arid Henry Blumhagen, 28, of 4 2d both of Glen Cove, were held lor the action of the Nassau County grand jury when arraigned before Justice Joseph B.

C. Howe, district director of WPA, reported that the TERA has been authorized tn crant. the I two counties $15,000 for materials sufficient to keep WPA men busy pending delivery of full stores of materials from the Procurement Di-vision of the United States Treas-j ury Department. Delivery of Federal materials may I take several weeks. No one In au-i thoritv here epmH tr lmMi, -va iwium tea juov lung wouia lane.

ERB Sends Men Howe said the funds $9,000 for Nassau and $6,000 for Suffolk will be reimbursed by WPA funds at the end of this month. Meanwhile, from sources outside of the WPA, came information that indicated the TERA-sponsored Emergency Work Relief Bureau was pinch-hitting in many cases for the later created National Re employment Service. On many projects, it was learned, me iNtta was not prepared to supply the number of workers required by the WPA, so the ERB bridged the gap by sending men. Howe said the WPA would handle payrolls with Its own funds on a stagger system, with pay days probably on the 5th, the 10th and the 15th of the month. 5,223 Placed WPA in Nassau and Suffolk now has 5,223 persons employed on projects, Howe asserted, thus fulfilling his prediction that $5,000 would be at work by Friday.

From various parts of Nassau came word that manv men on WPA jobs are forced to idleness because of lack of materials or supervisors. In one case men were sent to a location where there was no work to be done and had to return to Mineola. Meanwhile the WPA was trying to speed men to work by cutting red tape. Mrs. K.

Expressing his gratitude for their support, Dr. Rogers said "There never has been a time in the history of our fair land when a Catholic school education was so vital. Today the very foundation of society is trembling, due to the assaults made upon it by the various 'isms' rampant.

I'sms' there are which have I made man dissatisfied with the doc- trine of man's rights. There are other 'isms' which attack society in its root, the family, by hurling themselves against the sanctity of marriage. Then again, there are others which would expel God the Almighty from this, our land of religious liberty. Root out the Catholic school from our nation and these 'Isms' have full play. Behold the pitiful conditions in Russia and Mexico." The Holy Name Society of St.

They live with a son, Dixon, and a daughter, Miss Alice Braltmayer, Other children who will attend the celebration with their families are I i And one of his personal friends who is also his opponent for public office. Alderman Edward E. Buhler.

staunch Republican, has announced that while his friend Jimmy is ill, he (Buhler) will not make another political speech and thereupon ended his campaign immediately. Leaves Voters to Decide "Considering the seriousness of Assemblyman Burke's condition, our contest for Alderman in the 58th District goes before the voters on its merits," Alderman Buhler said last night. "It is for the voters to make their choice on the basis of our respective records as public servants, and it is my sincere prayer that Jim Burke's condition will speedily Improve." Assemblyman Burke was stricken at 10:30 a.m. yesterday only a short time after he left his residence at 94-01 199th Hollis. He quickly returned home and was then taken to the hospital for an X-ray diagnosis.

Following the diagnosis an immediate operation was decided upon and Dr. Harold Linsky, visiting surgeon to the hospital, performed the operation. "Assemblyman Burke is still in a very serious condition and we must guard against complications," said Dr. Linsky today. Too Active, Friends Say The concensus of his many friends is that Mr.

Burke attempted too much. They stress the fact that his 11 meetings on Thursday night climaxed by the big Democratic rally at the Carlton Theater in Jamaica was the last straw and the collapse yesterday followed. Not alone has Assemblyman Burke been active in Albany, but he has been one of the leading civic workers in Queens. At every meeting in the campaign besides stressing the need for a continued Democratic Legislature to further improvements in Queens, he stressed the civic needs of the borough. He made it a point to appear at every rally scheduled.

His Republican opponent. Alderman Buhler. one of the most active members of the Board of Aldermen, is also one of the leading active civic workers in the borough, so that both candidates stressed the needs and Interests of the taxpayers in their speeches. But not once during the entire campaign has either Burke or Buhler criticized the record or activities of the "friendly enemy." Each has confined himself with stressing his own record and asking for the votes of the citizens and taxpayers solely on those records. Goodwin Warns on Plot William J.

Goodwin, Democratic leader In the 3d zone of the 4th A. D. of the pre-primary triumvirate forces which succeeded in nominating Mr. Burke, sounded a warning last night at a rally that "certain forces" are preparing to provide political assassination of Burke in his Aldermanic bid. "And Mr.

Burke was well aware of this plot," the local leader explained, "for only last Saturday he told me, 'Bill, I am worried about the sincerity of many of my sup I told him that I too had seen evidences of the same trend, "Only this morning Harold Darby 'former president of the South Rosedale Democratic Club) asked If Mr. Burke would carry this zone which is normally five or six to One Democratic and I had all I could to control my feelings. That remark was to me of great significance. Claims 'Word Gone Out "The word has gone out to keep the Burke vote away down. I am sure of this.

I( there is a movement afoot in this respect, then we must exert every force in an effort to offset it. I have felt the tension here in our zone." Mr. Goodwin characterized the undermining of the Burke prestige as a vote-getter as a dastardly plot and indicated that it is nothing but another of the political plots per-! petrated by the former triumvirate antagonists. The rally, under the auspices of the United Third Zone Regular Democratic Organization in the 4th A. was in the auditorium of P.

S. 37, Belknap St. at Midland Boulevard, Springfield Gardens. FROLIC AT CHl'RCH HALL The Christian Endeavor Society of the Jamaica Dutch Reformed Church, 153d St. and Jamaica held a Halloween costume party last night in the church hall.
