TEN THE BRIDGEPORT POST, TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 27, 1962. Skipper Radios Milford Man Of Pride in Ship MILFORD, Feb. 27-(AP) "I have never been prouder of a ship." That's the word sent back home by the skipper of the destroyer escort U. S. S.

Coates-- Comdr. Wilfred D. Hoyt of Ham den--after his ship helped in a rescue at sea. Hoyt radioed the word back to Fred Tamm, of 28 Gresham street, Devon, Milford, a ham radio operator who has been relaying messages from the ship manned by Connecticut reservists. The Coates came to the aid of a stricken Liberian merchant ship, the "Corinto," Saturda; night as it flundered in the Car ribean sea.

For three hours, the Coatei towed the Corinto toward thi U. S. base at Quantanamo Bay Cuba, until a U. S. Navy tug Shakorc took over.

The Coates also managed to transfer emer gency pumps to the Corinto and secure a tow line. Later, Hoyt radioed back: "No injuries to crew of any kind very delicate and diffi cull operation under unfavor able conditions Have never been prouder of a ship." More 'Mercury' Stamps Due, Neary Assures Collectors To satisfy a "phenomenal" demand for the "Project Mercury" commemorative stamps which placed on sale as soon as the success of Astronaut John Glenn's orbital flight was known, the Federal government has Scheduled a new printing. Postmaster Russell E. Neary advised today. The 125,000 "surprise" stamps offered here initially were sold out within 24 hours, the postmaster reported.

Postmaster Neary said that at least 125,000 more of the Project Mercury stamps will be issued to the Bridgeport Post office, as a part of the 120,000,000 additional stamps being printed to meet the' heavy demand. He said the stamps should be received in the near future, and their arrival will be announced. Postmaster Neary said 45,000 of the commemorative stamps were sold in the Bridgeport Post office on the afternoon of the orbital flight. The balance of the 125.000 stamps went on sale in the Post office branches and the main Post office the following morning and were gone by 9:30 a.m. The Federal government also has announced that first day covers, which are envelopes bearing new stamps cancelled on the date or anniversary of the event they commemorate, have been increased from 1 million to 1.6 million.

LODGE URGES PARTY UNITE Say. GOP Has 'Magnificent Opportunity' to Win in State WESTPORT, Feb. 27-Party unity was called the key to a state Republican victory in November by former Gov.

John Lodge in a talk last night to the Westport Young Republican club in the Dorr-Oliver Mill. Mr, Lodge has been mentioned as a potential contender for the GOP gubernatorial nomination although he has not publicly announced any candidacy. It appeared, however, from the questions of club members and Mr. Lodge's answers that the possibility of his nomination for governor was being seriously considered. In his talk Mr.

Lodge confined lis remarks to his experiences while ambassador to Spain under he Eisenhower administration and comments on the international situation. He turned to state politics during a question period after his talk. Says GOP Can Win Asked to comment on the GOP chances for victory in November, Mr. Lodge said the party 'has a magnificent opportunity for victory if it will unite strong- behind a candidate for governor and others on the slate."

Police said a teenage companion, who fled the scene, is being sought, ft Charged with using a motor vehicle without the permission of the owner is Henry Austin, 17, of 127 Spruce street. Pending Circuit court arraignment, he is being held in licit of SI.000 bond. Patrol car policeman Herman Bailer observed the two youths acting suspiciously in the auto at Lindley street and Capitol avenue and started to follow them. When the youths observed the patrol car, the one driving started speeding away, police said. At French and Main streets the youths jumped from the auto while it was still moving and Patrolman Bailer left his vehicle and ran after the car and stopped it as it was rolling toward a nearby house.

The Austin youth was taken into custody by the policeman near the scene but the second occupant fled into the darkness. Police said the auto owned by Sidney Neuman, of 153 Chestnut street, was stolen from a parking place near the owner's home. for renovations in thc building. archdiocese of Hartford. 1 Grace E.

Mr. Heanue said that the pay of the maintenance men averages between $1.75 and $1.95 hourly. This, he added, places them about 40 cents an hour behind persons who work in similar jobs in other housing projects. The union leader said that 924 families reside in the apartments, many members of whom belong to various union organizations. "Some of these people are doing the squawking against giving these people a fair wage," he said.

Mrs. Matyas was unavailable for comment.

Mr. Annetta, owner of Annet-1 ta's food center, told police a man asked him for cigarettes and while he was making change, the bandit struck him on the head. Mr.

Annelta said the assailant then scooped the money from the cash register and fled.

Recruiters Still Get Inquiries On Space--a Week After Orbit Area military recruiters are experiencing no dampening of the current fervor of the now week- old orbital flight which has stirred up the more than usual inquiries from America's youth. Questions from prospective applicants visiting the recruiting offices of the various branches of the armed services have, in the main, had to do with "aviation and space" matters. Staff Sgt. Walter J.

Powers, of the Air Force office, whose service took a leading part in the Project Mercury task through its command of Cape Canaveral, had 16 possible recruits taking qualification examinations at one time during the past week. He attributed the interest to the orbital flight. Response the Marine Corps office, Sgt. Joseph G. Sagan, At Staff SALE CUT TO SIZE PLYWOOD OPEN SATURDAYS ALL DAY MONROE LUMBER AM 8-5222 NCO-in-charge, said the response has been "outstanding" and with true Leatherneck "esprit de corps" reminded that the U.

S. first world-orbiting astronaut was a "Marine." SFC John Hamilton, NCO-in- charge at the Army office, pointed out that the space vehicle which left the Florida launch pad was the Army's "Atlas." Inquiries made at the Army office, he said, were centered around interests in missiles and related technical fields, such as radar- tracking, electronics, and others. Senior Chief Quartermaster Bernard L. Cooper, recruiter-in- charge at the Navy office, expressed the opinion that the Navy's support role in giving surface coverage around the world route of the orbit-flight has drawn interest from young men resigned to the fact that their chances would be slim in making similar conquests of outer space. And, the Navy chief was quick to recall, it "was" a Navy man who made the U.S.

initial flight' into outer space, referring to the historic ride of Navy Crndr. Alan Shepard. All in all, its been a hectic week for all the U.S. and even some of the ardor of space travel as filtered down to levels of the more everyday existence of recruiters who are on duty each day in the main Post Office building, 120 Middle street. cutting the present budget but by slowing the rate of increase so that it kept nomic growth.

Clinton Post, Veterans of Foreign Wars. Julius A. Toth, post commander, said the veterans voted last night to launch a public subscription drive to finance the tribute which will probably be in the form of sculpture and will be kept on display in the town library. The Westport Bank and Trust company has agreed to serve as a collection center for the drive. Mr.

Toth will appoint a committee to play the fund raising campaign. The plan for the memorial was suggested by Mrs. William Ward, of Old road, who said some community action should be taken to crystalize the memory of last Tuesday when thc attention of the entire town along with the of the world was focused on the orbital flight. Mrs. Ward said First Select- nouncement several months ago that a four-room elementary school would be constructed in Our Lady of Peace parish in the Lordship area.

The school would take a majority of the students from the Great Neck school, leaving the town with a vacant school building. At the start of the meeting.

The parents and six children in one family were taken to St.

James Turpin and their six children. Two children in a house across the street from the Turpins' also were overcome. They were identified as Theresa and Frederick UNITED NATIONS, N. Feb. 27--(AP) Both friends and foes of Cuba expressed doubt that the UN Security council would give a hearing today to Cuba's latest charge that the United States plans aggression against the Castro regime.

The council was scheduled to meet this afternoon at Cuba's lequest, but some delegates--both Western neutralist--pointed out that the 104-nation General Assembly last Tuesday refused to act on similar Cuban charges after two weeks of debate. These delegates doubted the council majority would sit through another rehash of the Cuban charges. To the surprise of no one, however, Soviet Chief Delegate Valerian A. Zorin called for action from the council. But at a news conference yesterday even he seemed doubtful that the council would take up the Cuban complaint.

"The Western powers are not always prone to give the Soviet Union an opportunity to express its views," he said. Cuban Chief Delegate Rio Gar- cia-Inchaustegui said he had a speech ready in case the council called on him. The United States was silent on its strategy. The usual policy is not to oppose the council's taking up anti-U. S.

charges. But there was no certainty it would follow that policy this time. Cuba complained to the council last Thursday, repeating the charges she had made--and the United States had denied--in the assembly that the United States is preparing a new invasion of Castro's island. Cuba added the accusation that the United States is violating the holidaying school kids. These, plus the formal welcomes of city fathers and the Haven county co-ordinator.
