Raytheon cites 10 employes from area for their inventions Ten area employes of Raytheon's-Submarine Signal Division in Portsmouth have been recognized by the company for patented inventions in the field of underwater sound. Thirty-three others were cited for filing invention disclosures to be considered by the company for patent applications. Receiving Raytheon's Fessenden Award for patented inventions were Mark A. Chramiec and John L. Searle of Newport; Stanley L.

Fessenden (18661932), an American physicist, engineer, and inventor in radio and underwater echo ranging. The Fessenden oscillator, developed during his employment by the former Submarine Signal Company of Boston, first made practicable the use of sound for underwater detection and depth measurement. Among the patented inventions cited in the awards are a waveform regenerator for use with a digital correlator by Walsh and Chramiec, a sea bottom slope measuring apparatus by Walsh, a system for determining depth of water by- Walsh with George J.

Little Compton's Common Historic District has been added to the National Register of Historic Places, Frederick C.

Williamson, state historic preservation officer, announced today. Other places added to the National Register are the Whitman Farm on Eaton Street in Providence, the Green- Bowen House (Fones Green House) in Warwick, Kingston Village in South Kingstown, and the Carolina Village Historic District in Charlestown and Richmond. Little Compton Common Historic District consists of 28 structures surrounding the Common. The entire Common area is one of picturesque quietude, dominated by the bulk and spire of the Congregational Church and the grey ranks of vertical old stone markers in the adjacent burying-ground. The bordering streets, with their various but not domineering structures, all well maintained, form a visually interesting perimeter to the Common and are important parts of the Historic District's totality, Williamson said.

The structures consist of dwellings, a public school, Town Hall, the post office, a library, a church, meeting-halls, a little firehouse, two cemeteries and some modest commercial structures. This is the place to which people still come to pay their taxes, to post their mail and buy "General Merchandise" at the old shop of "Est. of C.R. Wilbur," and where the young go to school: it remains the heart of the township and, with its church and burying-ground, 'm uiu uui jruig-giuuAiu, Hlflll tflOllfifllt a del '8 ntin 8 "island" of visual pleasure in its area.

(AP) Data from a study of the concentration in Houston of a potentially cancer-causing chemical is being withheld because of possible criminal prosecution, according to federal officials. As part of an Environmental Protection Agency study of vinyl chloride, air samples are being collected near chemical plants along the ouston Ship Channel to determine the concentration of the chemical in the atmosphere. An EPA lawyer in the agency's Dallas regional office said Better defense urged insane PROVIDENCE (AP) The author of a landmark decision broadening the rights of mentally ill defendants in criminal cases, has criticized psychiatrists for not taking full advantage of the ruling. Judge David L. Bazelon of the U.S.

Court of Appeals in Washington told a Butler Hospital symposium that the decision expanded the guidelines under which a psychiatrist could testify on the sanity of a defendant. The decision states that a defendant is not criminally responsible if it can be demonstrated that his act was the product of a mental desease or defect, he said. Friday that the results of the Houston study would be withheld because the study "represents the investigation files of a law enforcement agency" and polluters releasing the gas could be subject to prosecution. At least 12 deaths in the United States and elsewhere have been linked to vinyl chloride gas. It is suspected as a cause of a rare form of liver cancer, angiosarcoma.

The information would be released only after evaluation and possible legal disposition, Collins said. The EPA vinyl chloride team is testing for the chemical at 10 plants around the country, including those in Houston. Dr. Glenn E. Schweitzer, head of he EPA team, said an estimated 200 million pounds of the gas escapes annually into the atmosphere in the United States.

In Akron, Ohio, the B.F. Goodrich Co. announced that about 100 scientists and others are working six to seven days a week in a multimillion-dollar effort to reduce employe exposure to vinyl chloride. Five of the reported vinyl chloride deaths were among former employes of Goodrich's plant in Louisville, Ky. Two cases were reported among living employes there.

Anton Vittone, president of Goodrich's chemical division, said the research probably would lead to more automation. freed on bail after new evidence pointing to his innocence was turned in to the state, officials said. William J. Cresta, 40, of Medford, was convicted last July of participating in the $66,000 robbery of an armored car messenger in the state department of Employment Security building here on April 26, 1971. Asst.

Atty. Gen. Albert E. DeRobbio said Friday that JoAnn Raniello DeFreitas had submitted an affadavit to officials declaring that she was part of the robbery conspiracy. The affadavit said Mrs.

DeFreitas had distributed the $66,000 and knew the identities of the robbers. It said Cresta had no part in the crime. DeRobbio said Mrs. DeFreitas, who was placed in custody of the state police, had taken a lie detector test indicating she was telling the truth. Cresta's attorney told Superior Court Judge Eugene G.

Gallant that a motion had been filed for a new trial based on the evidence submitted in the af- fadavit. in robbery death PROVIDENCE, (AP) A Superior Court grand jury has found that a Pawtucket police detective was justified in the fatal shooting of Michael Dorsey during an attempted robbery at a Dutchland Farms store in Pawtucket last month. The grand jury report concluded that Lt. Herbert J. Collins, head of the department's vice squad, acted in the line of duty after having ordered Dorsey to freeze.

A vice squad team had staked out the store because of a rash of robberies in similar establishments. New England colonies. Because Rhode Island among the New England states has few handsome green commons, the preservation of this one, beloved and much acclaimed, is especially i a Williamson said. The National Register of Historic Places in which the Little Compton Common Historic District has been entered is. a protective inventory of historical and irreplaceable properties located throughout the country.

The Register affords some degree of protection from the possible adverse affects of government programs such as urban renewal and highway construction. Gelineau has role at Feast The Most Rev.

Cinque's death reviewed: watched pals die, shot self LOS ANGELES (AP) Donald "Cinque" DeFreeze, the ex- convict who called himself "the nigger that hunts you now," watched his terrorist comrades fall one by one.

Then, wounded twice and hugging the dirt beneath a burning clapboard bungalow, he put a pistol to bis head and pumped a bullet into his brain. That is how Los Angeles County Coroner Thomas Noguchi reconstructs the death of DeFreeze and five of his Sym- bionese Liberation Army followers in a Shootout with police and federal agent last week. "There is no evidence to indicate that any of them tried to get out," Noguchi told newsmen Friday in describing his reconstruction of the blazing Shootout. "In all my years as coroner, I've never seen this kind of behavior in the face of flames," he said. "It is reasonable to believe they were determined Meanwhile, the search for three other suspected SLA fugitives continued without success.
