Problem in Wayne: Finding Clear Road (Continued from Page 1) the Chemway tract, Barns. dale road, a low point in between these two, and another decline where Fairfield Road nears Route 46. Early Friday the first three were Inundated while water was across the road at the last point and threatened to cut off many Fairfield Road residents. While the foregoing are the earliest, deepest and most inconvenient sites of commuter road flooding, they are not exclusively so. There always are points along.

Route 23 (near Packanack Lake Road) that can be impassable along with the area at Hinchman Ave. nue on the Hamburg Turnpike. In addition many lesser roads throughout the township are subject to floodingflash and otherwise. Others Affected First While the three commuter roads mentioned caused motorists the greatest inconvenience during heavy storms, they are not the sites of the earliest or the deepest floods. These occur off the beaten track, and cause suffering or damage to homes or residents.

These, in Wayne, are the Hoffman tract and the Old Wayne Area. The Hoffman tract is bypassed daily by tens of thousands of motorists who never see it. This colony of former summer bungalows is west of Route 23 across the highway from New Street. It is down grade from Route 23 and far enough away not to be seen. First thought of safety workers when a flood threatens are these two points.

Flooding isn't only historical, it's traditional. The Hoffman tract was settled by all-year residents who bought former summer bungalows and repaired 4 and refitted these as an economy measure. Still Want to Build This contrasts somewhat with the Old Wayne Area where development has been sporadic at times but more or less continuous for several decades. In fact, the Board of Zoning Adjustment is continually receiving applications by persons who want to build on unimproved streets in this flood plain. Back of the foregoing grim flooding picture is "poor drainage" elsewhere.

This phrase sounds insignificant when weighed from the more austere caption of flooding yet it is possibly even more important. Most certainly, it is more widespread. The elevation of Passaic County is recorded from 160 to 170 feet along the Pompton River in Mountain View, but a few miles north this rises to 400 feet. Hence, it is easy to visualize the drop water takes in its course off the hills and down the streams of West Milford, Bloomingdale and Ringwood. After each storm it pours into Wayne via the Pequannock, Ramapo, Pompton and Passaic Rivers.

Get Dam Overflow Added to this is the terrific runoff of the Wanaque Dam, a collector basin for much of the northernmost part of Passaic County, Further, likewise the has City of Newark reservoirs at West Milford. Further complicating the problem, there are many hills within Wayne dump water on local neighborhoods as witness the many, complaints from Packanack residents anent Alps Road and Osborne Terrace. The foregoing are only some of the reasons why Wayne is a consistent leader in demands for flood relief throughout the area. The township has more anti-flood groups who meet oftener than others in North Jersey. Furtherdrainage is a big issue and subject of a master plan.

Its Mayors and Councilmen have consistently pushed for funds and projects, most memorable of these efforts having been pressed by the late Sen. Edward Sisco, Wayne resident and former Search For Skyjacker Continues In Indiana 'PERU, Ind. (UPD)-Search teams on foot, on horseback and in helicopters combed the sparsely populated wooded areas southeast of here Sunday for any trace of a hijacker who balled out of a jetliner Saturday with $502.000 ransom money. The hijacker, took over an American Airlines plane en route from St. Louis, to Tulsa, Friday afternoon, parachuted from second aircraft near thia north central Indiana community before dawn Saturday--and vanished.

"We are still looking for the subject, alive or dead." Sgt. John Gaylor of the Indiana Police post at Peru, the search command post, said. James P. Martin, special agent in charge of the FBI office at Indianapolis, briefed search teams Sunday, directing them to wooded areas because no clues were found Saturday in fields and open areas, The wooded areas where the search was concentrated border on the Mississinewa Reservoir, 1 man-made lake that is part of the Wabash River flood control system. Officers ruled out dragging operations in the reservoir as impractical because it is too but conservation officials patrolled the lake by boat.

A group of volunteer horsemen accompanied by a state trooper searched a wooded state recreation area. Most other searchers were walking although helicopters still were in use. The search began about 3 a.m. Saturday when the five crew members and one passenger hostage aboard the 727 jetliner reported the hijacker had parachuted from about 10,000 A radar sighting directed searchers into an area southeast of Peru, about 70 miles north bor Indianapolis and 110 miles, southeast of Chicago.

St. Louis County police have ordered 24-hour guard at the room where Hanley, 30, lies in serious condition at St. John's Mercy Hospital, Authorities said they did not know what, if anything, Hanley would be charged with and no explanation was given for posting the guard. Interviews with relatives and neighbors have offered few clues as to why Hanley drove his 1971 Cadillac Eldorado convertible through a chain link fence, raced three times up and down the runway next to the hijacked jet at speeds estimated at 80 miles per hour then slammed on his brakes and veered into the craft's nose- 10,000 A radar sighting gear, disabling the plane.
