The bride the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Leland Rider of Tioga Center. Mr. and Mrs.

John Morgan of 46 River Nichols, are the bridegroom's parents. Miss Deborah Rider, the bride's sister, was maid of honor, and Martin Thomas of Nichols served as best man. Bridesmaids were Rhonda Louns -bury and Marilee Rider, sister of the bride. Flower girls were Nancy and Tracy Jones, and the ring bearer was Scott Morgan, brother of the bridegroom. Ushers were Frank Dut-ton and Arthur Stradley, friends of the bridegroom.

Given in marriage by her father, the bride wore a floor length satin gown styled with an A-line skirt with appliqued lace.

They car By LEE LINDER PHILADELPHIA (AP) It takes guts, some brains, and a lot of work. But it pays off in a goad job at twice the pay many ever earned before. This is Pennsylvania's special project to train heavy construction equipment operators, now in short supply and badly needed in building highways, and dams, and bridges.

Approximately 100 men, most of them blacks who never had anything better than a laborer's job, learned the unusual skill in a six-month "school" in the heart of the Pocono Mountains near Stroudsburg on a Boy Scout reservation. They came from Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Erie, Scranton, Reading, Harrishurg and scores of small boroughs and Many had labored in steel mills, or on farms. A few had driven trucks. Some were unemployed and collecting relief payments to support their families. Graduation Day is June 68 and they got right to work in construction, in jabs that pay a ininimum of $5.60 an hour.

Julius L. McCoy, chief of the State Highway Department's Bureau of Equal Opportunity, said "with con tinuing efforts like this, Pennsylvan ia will lead the nation in highway construction." A dozen firms donated the heavy equipment, unions sent in 20 instructors, and the state and federal governments picked up the $800,000 training bill. The work the "students" do isn't wasted and it'll save the Scouts around $1.5 million they would have had to spend to fix up the reserva tion. All told, 40 miles of dirt roads were cleared, four lakes were dug, including one that covers 35 acres; a 300-foot suspension bridge was erected, and enough landfill was excavated to handle needs of the site until nearly the year 2000. "The trainees operate most of the equipment used in the construction work," said James S.

Longacre, director of the Pennsylvania Council, International Union of Operating Engineers. "Dozers, pans, graders, backhoe and core drillers are but a few of the pieces of equipment." Besides work in the field, they attend classes in welding, and ical maintenance. Many have to learn to read and write before they Business Mirror Damaged in Crash A small child was injured and ex tensive damage done to two cars in an accident yesterday afternoon at 4 o'clock on Center St in East Ath ens. According to Athens Township po lice, who are still investigating, Mrs, Lois Hunt of East Athens was trav elling west on Center St. when an other car operated by Dorothy Soule of Dodge Waverly, pulled in front of the Hunt car.

Mrs. Soule had signaled and stop ped before making a left-hand turn into Kirby St. Police theorize that poor visibility due to the rain caused Mrs. Soule to fail to see the approaching Hunt car. Carl Hunt age 6, was shaken up in the crash and was to 'be treated by the family's physician.

Another passenger, Kathleen Hunt, was not hurt nor was Lillian Schuyler of Chemung St. Waverly, a passenger in the Soule car. Damage has been estimated at about $300 to each car. The Soule machine was towed from the scene. Che-Hanna Rock, Mineral Club Hears Speakers The topic of "How To Evaluate Prime Specimens and Weeding Out the Inferior ones," was presented by three guest speakers at the regular meeting of the Che-Hanna Rock and Mineral Club held May 14 at the Central School in Sayre.

Command (Continued from Page 1) 29 North Vietnamese killed and said U.S. casualties have been two killed and 32 wounded. The U. S. Command also reported 26 enemy rockets and mortar attacks Sunday night but said only 10 caused casualties or damage and these were light.

The Command also reported two more American helicopters shot down, with seven Americans wound ed. This raised to 2,678 the number of American helicopters reported lost in the war. Allied sources reported today that casualties in the war last week in cluded about 300 Americans, 413 South Vietnamese and 4,000 of the enemy, according to preliminary re ports. As the controversy in the United States over American casualties con tinued, the U. S.

Command in Saigon announced that more than 40 of the enemy were killed for every allied soldier during a 24-hour period of the weekend. But battlefield reports gave a ratio Saturday and Sunday of 24 to one, with 436 Viet Cong and North Vietnamese, 12 Americans and six South Vietnamese killed. Another 105 Americans and 16 South Vietna mese were wounded. The kill ratio for the casualties re ported for last week was nearly 6 enemy to 1 allied soldier. This was somewhat less than the ratio of 7 or 8 to 1 that has prevailed in recent weeks, but the figures made avail able today are incomplete and may be revised by the time the weekly summary is issued Thursday.

Casualties have soared since May 11, when the Communist command stepped up its attacks across South Vietnam. The U. S. Command blames the higher casualties on increased enemy attacks; a spokesman for Gen Creighton W. Abrams said two days ago that U.

S. forces have not in creased the level of their offensive activity but are continuing to operate in the same manner they have for many months.

Outside service faculties often have highly experienced personnel. For those companies that are con templating the purchase or rental of machines the veteran users offer this advice: Allow one or two years of plan ning and preparation before install- ng a computer. Hire the best people obtainable.

Use a highly competent EDP man ager from the very beginning of planning. involve all levels of manage ment in decisions involving the pur chase or rental.

"Overqualified and underemployed," is the conclusion reached by Research Institute of America after analyzing replies from 2,500 companies of all sizes. It placed 90 per cent of all industrial computers in that category. It found them doing routine chores payrolls, bookkeeping, accounts receivable and payable, inventory control, sales and analyses instead of helping management makj top-level decisions. In fact, it found also that companies plan to continue using com-" puters in elementary chores, "despite the ballyhooed benefits from computer assisted top management decision making. A sampling of opinion from elec- tronic data processing managers tended to confirm the suggestion that computers couldhelp business a lot more if they were more imaginatively used.

Said one manager: "Owning a computer is for some companies like an individual owning the Queen Elizabeth to transport him from his ried bouquets of roses and daisies.

West brook, stationed in Washington, flew to Miami Beach from Scotland, where he had been on temporary assignment. "Wendy is a born winner.

He prepared to return to Washington as she got ready to be gin her public appearance treks across the country. "I didn't count on winning.

The reason for not fully utiliz ing the machine, said another EDP manager, is that business is now buying swift, complicated second and third generation equipment but try ing to run them with men who are only first or second generation man agers. "You can't expect a guy right out of college to know all the possibilities of computer utilization," he said. "Most machines are so fast that they can handle several jobs almost simultaneously," he explained. 'But most managers haven't the scope to keep them fully employed.

There is an art to utilization." Despite this tendency to underestimate the computer's ability, the survey shows that companies have accepted the cerebral servant to a great extent. More than 60 per cent of respondents now use or plan within a year to use computers. "Today, any company with more than 200 employes or $7 million in sales that is not using a computer is in the minority," concluded the in stitute, a privately owned business advisory firm. Not all those who use computers are owners or renters, however. Many companies send their work out to computer service facilities, much as a housewife sends out the1.
