property on the east side of the Petaluma River at Black Point. James J. Menke was granted a five-year permit for the walkway and float in Greenbrae. The commission voted to ask Gov. Ronald Reagan to accept an agreement that the last natural high water mark days before the shoreline was diked would be recognized as boundary line of the maker property.

The Black Point Improvement Association and Southern Sonoma County residents successfully fought last year to prevent rezoning of Shellmaker's land for industrial use.

HAZEL Judge Wilson Overruled In Osuna Retrial A higher court has ruled that Marin Superior Court Judge Joseph G. Wilson must allow testimony about an earlier crime into the penalty phase trial of convicted murderer Marc C. Osuna.

Judge Wilson had ruled that testimony regarding a Sacramento burglary in which guns were stolen which were later used in the holdup and murder could not be introduced into this new trial. NAMES AT ISSUE Dist. Atty. Bruce B. Bales said yesterday that the ruling made on the basis that1 the names of the three prospective witnesses had not been given to the defense attorney before the trial started, had been overruled by the district court: of appeals.

Osuna and Jack R. Gorman were convicted of the slaying of a San Rafael bartender during the 1965 Labor Day holdup of the Mission Inn Tavern. The California Supreme Court upheld their convictions but ordered a new trial to determine if the two, held in San Quentin's death row since their earlier trial, will receive life sentences or the death penalty. Osuna's retrial, which started almost two weeks ago, was to resume today with former bar owner Leo Albertoni scheduled to take the stand. SHOOTING WITNESS During the earlier trial Albertoni testified that bartender Mario Ferrari died after being shot when he tried to escape during the holdup.

The testimony about the Sacramento Burglary is to come later in the trial. Deputy Dist. Atty. Ernest C. Zunino is prosecuting the case, and Osuna is being defended by Los Angeles attorney Ernest L.

Graves, who was appointed for him. Gorman is scheduled to be tried separately sometime next year. Proposals For Nike Land Are Discussed San Rafael City Mgr. James 11. McCown told Black Canyon Homeowners Association members last night about proposals that (he city buy undeveloped land near the Nike missile site above the canyon.

The association also heard Group Will Attempt To Save Trees Pacific Gas and Electric Co. officials on the cost of under- grounding utility lines to the homes, but made no decision.

members unanimously voted to send a flier to every home in the area, stressing the need to observe speed limits, cautioning youngsters to walk on the sidewalks rather than in streets, and reminding of dog control laws. The association decided formation of a proposed youth group was not possible under the homeowner bylaws. The semiannual general meeting of Black Canyon residents was held in Bertrand Hall, Dominican College. A 19-year-old Antioch woman, attempting to cross Highway 101 in Novato on foot yesterday, was struck by a truck and died hours later at Marin General Hospital. The California Highway Patrol identified her as Debra Kayj Quick.

Officers theorized Miss Quick had been let off where Highway 37 enters Highway 101, and was attempting to hitchhike when aj man stopped in the center divider strip because he had dropped a cigarette into his lap. Miss Quick, apparently thinking he had stopped to give her a ride, darted out into the northbound traffic, the patrol said, and ran into the side of a pickup1 truck driven by Forrest O. Young. 61, of Santa Rosa. Officers said it was dark when the accident occurred at 5:20 p.m.

and several other motor-1 ists narrowly missed hitting; her. Miss Quick was taken to Ma-j rin General Hospital by amubl-! ance and died at 1:50 a.m. to- day of massive head injuries. She is survived by her mother. Lucille, of Antioch.

Bishops Reject Any Communion Changes WASHINGTON (UPh The National Conference of Catholic Bishops, heeding protests from laymen disturbed by many changes in traditional church practices, has rejected a proposed modification of the communion rite. I The conference failed to approve the change in a 115-107 vote in a closed meeting Thursday. A two-thirds vote, or 148 votes, was required for passage.

Some 20.000 copies of a report to citizens by the San Rafael City Schools went out by mail last week, but an undetermined number reached addressees in Tamalpais High School District while some San Rafael residents did not receive the publication. Supt. John Plank said today the mix-up is being checked out by his office. Copies of Rafael School which cost $912 were mailed to residents of Kentfield and Greenbrae. including i the portion of Greenbrae which is in the City of Larkspur.

None went to the San Quentin area, which is within the San Rafael I High School District, a spot check disclosed some residents in San Rafael itself did not re- cieve copies. Plank said the mailing was included in the contract for printing the eight-page tabloid-sized report, and was not done by the schools office. He said it was learned subsequently that the mailer used a list classified by post office zip code, and by error had the code area listed as The San Rar- fael Post Office distributed in Kentfield-Greenbrae with 94904 code, whereas 94901 is the nome-delivcry code in San Rafael itself south of Puerto Suello Hill. The contract was for printing and distribution of 23.000 copies, but Plank said this included extras for distribution to school personnel and probably about 20.000 were mailed.

A breakdown of the number of households from this year's census has not yet been issued, but the school population has remained virtually constant the past two years so the increase apparently would not be great. The printing and distribution contract was with the Pacific Sun, which shares a printing plant in Northgate Industrial Park with the Novato Advance, at a price of $511 plus $49.47 for address labels and $351.82 postage.

Crafts Shop Plans Are Turned Down The Fairfax Planning Commission last night turned down a proposal for a crafts shop at 161 Bolinas Road. Secretary Ernestine a I said the vote was 5-0, Harold S. Lezzini abstaining, to turn down the request by Mr. and Mrs. Frank Perry to open a shop selling leather clothes and Indian jewelry and artifacts.

The couple had planned to use the front half for the shop and live in the back half, bid the commission turned them down on the grounds that the proposed new zoning ordinance di- signates the area for apartments, not stores, Mrs. Healy said. The planning commission granted a conditional zoning permit to Richard Lash for an electronics development laboratory at 8 Bolinas Road. It asked the city council if it should review a 1968 traffic circulation study in view of changed traffic patterns since that year. the rear Nader Campaign For Public Law NEW YORK (UPH- Ralph Nader, criticizing lawyers and law students for lacking a of has urged them to donate $500 a year to establish a $500,000 pool for a public interests law firm.

M. Fox of 70 Grande Paseo However, Fox said, 40 or 45 residents of the Casa Marinwood development decided last night to talk with county planners, supervisors and attorneys, and the president of U.S. Development Corp.

to make sure there is no more cutting. The movement to protect the trees along an old creek bank began Saturday when trees were cut down because building sites in the Roundtree development had to be shifted into the tree area in two spots to permit access by emergency fire vehicles. The Independent-Journal erroneously reported yesterday that the trees were cut to make room for removal of buildings. The committee set no date for its next meeting. Fox said.
