Hazleton Standard Speaker, Saturday, July 1, 1972 18 Barnesville, Tamaqua Residents Concerned About Lakeside Dam McADOO and South Side Paul Cnrran, Correspondent East Blaine Dial 129 2021 Letts Items at Standard Druf or Hoxle'i Restaurant Chess Champ Fischer Asks More Money By STEPHENS BROENING Associated Press Writer REYKJAVIK, Iceland (AP) Tamaqua Area News Genevlm McCaffrey, Correspondent 113 W. Droad Street 668-3143 Although there are flood control empties into the Little Schuylkill above the Locust Mountain at the Taggartsville Sunoco sub-station. A growing corcen to the citizens of Barnesville and Tamaqua is the controversial issue at Lakeside Dam. During the recent flooding conditions it was reported that the dam had ruptured. Although this was a false rumor and caused great concern to local officials, the controversy continues.

Lakeside Dam is owned solely by Mr. Edmund McGrath, 40V4 W. Centre Street, Mahanoy City, and is fed on the northwest by the Hosensock Creek, well-controlled by the flood control dam 424, flow ing southerly into Lakewood Dam then into Lakeside on the northeast by Pine Creek and smaller unnam ed creeks and springs.

(AP) -A national pilot project for em ployment of the mentally re tarded would begin in Clearfield County under a bill approved unanimously Friday by the state House.

H. S. Parker dams, one-quarter mile west of Lakewood (422) and another one-half mile west of Lakeside, (422 A), some Tamaqua residents feel more control on Lakeside should be initiated. According to County Commissioners Joseph Holden and Albert Matunis, nothing can be done through the county to place restrictions on the summer swimming dam. "We visited Lakeside the time of the flood and cooperated with officials there to locate sand bags.

We were concerned for the safety of lower residents," Holden said. When asked was it county responsibility, Matunis stated: "The dam is privately-owned, we can only in helping during emergency disaster conditions." The contracting officer for Schuylkill County, Jugo Subrine, noted that while the condition at Lakeside was serious, it was felt that most of the extensive water flow came from Pine Creek and other smaller springs. "The flood control dams on the Hosensock prevented disastrous problems to the Little Schuylkill," Subrine noted, "and the State Soil and Conservation Officials have agreed on this matter." When a reporter approached McGrath at the dam site with a few questions, he appeared disturbed at the amount of mud in the swim ming area. He refused comment on all questions posed to him and in dicated that the commissioners were responsible for the dam and that any questions should be for warded to them. When it was sug gested that the dam is considered by some.

Tamaqua residents as a threat in times of heavy rainfall, McGrath disagreed vehemently and asked the reporter to leave "his dam" and forget about it. The Superintendent of Public Works in Tamaqua, Donald Mata lavage, assured all that the Lake side Dam isn't a major threat to the town but, "had the rain continued and the dam breast broke, then we would have something to worry about." Matalavage kept close watch on Lakeside during the flood. From a reporter's view the responsibility for the dam lies in the hands of its owner. Perhaps recom mendations to the Department of Environmental Resources, Forest and Waters Division, should be prepared, An all-out study on the operation of the dam should begin. The Lake side Dam has been made a commercial venture by McGrath and controls at the breast of the dam appear inadequate.

It would seem that he alone can remedy the fear in the minds of local residents. Planes Crash In Midair; 13 Are Killed NEENAH, Wis. (AP) When two turboprop jets collided in air and apparently killed all 13 persons aboard, there was five miles of "sufficiently good visibility" with only a light haze, a Federal Aviation Administration spokesman said.

The dam has an average depth of approximately six feet, being two feet at the highway's edge and approximately 15 feet at the breast. Depth measurements are difficult to determine since the dam is drained during the fall and winter months, and fluctuates with precipitation during the, summer months. Total area covered is 8.8 acres.

A hearing was scheduled for July 11 to consider moving him to St. Louis for arraignment. Chief Blair said he saw McNally walking along a highway late at night. He said he picked up the man for questioning but- didn't arrest him because he was polite, well-dressed and did not match the description of the hijacker. Police said a snub-nosed pistol was found in a highway drainage ditch near where the man was picked up.

Mrs, Amy Martin, a clerk at a motel near Peru, said a man who identified himself as Patrick McNally checked in between 11:30 p.m. and midnight Saturday. "The skin was scratched on one side of his face," Mrs. Martin said Thursday. "He looked like he hit his face on the ground or cement." "I don know why," she added, "but I asked him if he was the hijacker.

I was just kidding." She said the man "just grin ned and didn't say a word." She said he later told her he had been in a fight with his brother, who he said lived in Peru. She also said two FBI agents who were participating in the search and staying at the motel passed the defendant on the stairs Monday night. The investigation is conthv uing and FBI agents said pos sible involvement of other per sons has not been ruled out. 2 Automobile Dealers Charged With Turning Back Car Odometers HARRISBURG, Pa.

Andrew Davis, Fischer's law yer, arrived on' a rngnt irom New York. The plane was to have carried the 29-year-old chess star to the site of his 24- game matcn witn cnampion Boris Spassky of Russia. Fischer had booked a ticket and checked his bags on the plane, but then he hesitated. He got his luggage back and disappeared from Kennedy Airport in New York after holding up the flight for more than two hours. What Davis and officials of the Icelandic Chess Federation had to sort out was a fresh de mand by Fischer for 30 per cent of the gate receipts collected during the match.

Without the extra money, he threatened to boycott the match scheduled to begin Sunday. It was learned that Gutmun- der Thorarisson, the federation president, spent most of the night in sometimes heated tele phone conversation with Fischer's representatives in the United States. Thorarisson said late Friday that "nothing has been settled." Once Fischer earned the right to challenge Spassky, after eliminating a series of strong opponents in the challenge round, plans began to go awry for the "match of the century." There have been disputes over money, the site, lighting conditions, housing and even down to the kind of car the host federation should provide for Fischer. Until the new demand for a share of the gate, Fischer and Spassky had agreed to compete for the biggest prize in chess history: a division of $125,000 with five-eights going to the winner, and an even split of 60 per cent of the and TV rights sold to a promoter. Close Post Office In Allentown Area Despite Petition POTTSTOWN, Pa.

(AP) Despite a petition bearing 112 signatures, the post office in Rahns, located some 10 miles southeast of this Montgomery County town, was shutdown Friday by the U.S. Postal Serv ice. The postal agency said the cost of maintaining the post of fice which served about 200 residents in Rahns exceeded revenues. It said $3,900 worth of stamps were sold there last year. The government also said the office was closed because Mrs.

Mary Wojcik, postmistress there for the last 20 years, had asked for $5,000 per year instead of the $3,200 she'd been getting since 1963. However, Mrs. Wojcik later said she'd continue running the office without a raise. The $3,200 Included rental for the building which Mrs. Wojcik owns as well as her salary.

She said she worked an average of about 44 hours per week at the Rahns post office. Gandhi, Bhutto Discuss Peace Settlement SIMLA, India (AP) Prime Minister Indira Gandhi met privately Friday night with President Zulfikar Ali Bhutto of Pakistan for the first time to discuss a draft peace settlement. The draft came after Pakistan and India exchanged proposals Thursday, the second day of the Simla peace talks. "It makes an attempt at combining such elements common to our draft and the Indian draft," said Iftikhar Ali, Pakistan's foreign secretary. All described the progress of the negotiations as "somewhat slow because issues are complicated, but we continue to have hope that we will have agreement." He said "almost all matters between the two countries have come up for discussion" during the talks that resulted in the proposals Mrs.

Gandhi and Bhutto talked over for 45 minutes, without aides. The foreign secretary fraid the Pakistani side made the first proposals Thursday morning. The Indians countered with their own in the afternoon, and Pakistan submitted a combined draft on Friday. "Our revision takes care of such elements of the Indian draft which are acceptable to us," Ali said. But he added that the two side's lower-level delegations planned to meet again Saturday when the Indians might offer another counterproposal.

Ali refused to disclose the contents of the' proposal be cause of what he said was the very delicate time and quiie crucial iitage of the negotia Art Exhibit In Bank Lobby The 13th annual art exhibit, sponsored by the Tamaqua Art League is in full swing in the lob-bv of the American Bank and Trust Company, at Broad and Berwick Streets.

DETROIT (AP) The FBI is investigating the possibility that Martin J. McNally, ar rested in the parachute-ransom hijacking of an airliner last weekend, had been stopped and let go near the parachute landing site by an Indiana police chief. "It appears McNally was the same one picked up and let go Saturday night by police in Peru, an FBI spokesman said in Detroit Thursday night. Peru Police Chief Richard Blair said he questioned a man who identified himself as Patrick McNally, and he identified a picture of Martin as the man he stopped. McNally was arrested at his Wyandotte, home Wednesday night and appeared in a U.S.

District Court in Detroit Thursday, accused of being the air pirate who hijacked an American Airlines Boeing 727 near St. Louis, collected $502,500 ransom and two parachutes and bailed out over Indiana last Saturday.

McNally, 28 and unemployed, was held on $100,000 bond, then Oil Spilis Present No Danger Now PHILADELPHIA (AP) Massive oil spills present no danger at present to water sup plies fed by the Schuylkill River, federal officials said Friday night. Drinking water Intakes are being protected by diversionary booms in the wake of what has been termed the worst inland oil spill in United States his tory, a spokesman added.

Hardest hit is a 16-mile stretch of the river from Doug- lassville south to the Delaware River, according to the Envi- ronmental Protection Agency, which Is directing the cleanup effort. Protective booms have been positioned in front of five intake pipes as a precautionary measure, the EPA said. Five similar fences positioned earlier between Pottstown and Phoenixville have been success ful in preventing oil con tamination of water supplies. William R. Ruckelhaus, EPA administrator, inspected the op eration Friday and pledged whatever federal aid "is needed to mop up" the mess caused when last week's flood floated an estimated 6 million gallons of used crankcase oil into the Schuylkill at Douglass-ville.

An EPA spokesman said there was no time schedule on the cleanup, adding it probably will be a "long-term, major proposition." About 24 Coast Guard specialists from the Atlantic and Pacific detachments are on the job, helping the EPA direct some 40 workers from three cleanup firms. Ruckelhaus said earlier in Harrisburg the average cost of reclamation is about $5,000 a mile. But the current spill probably will cost much more to clean, he said.
