(JF Three men who had pleaded nolo contendere in federal court to charees that they had made fraud ulent claims in the operation of three GI automotive schools were fined a total of $3,500 today and each placed on two years pro bation. Judge John W. Murphy, in pass ing sentence, said he was inclined to moderation because of the ex ceptional war records of the de fendants.

Fined $2,000 was John J. Barni, 36, of Shamokin, who was a part owner of the Ralpho Township Automotive School and Coal Township Auto Body and Fender School. Fined $1,000 was James Noonan, 30, of Tamaqua, a former employe of the Veterans Admin istration and part owner with his brother-in-law Francis B. Kane, also of Tamaqua in the operation of the Tamaqua Automotive School. Kane, 32, was fined $500.

Noonan was also financially interested in- the Coal Township School and the court indicated that his fine was heavier than Kane's for that reason. Barni also was financially interested in the Tamaqua school. All three were charged with submitting fraudulent cost statements for operations and supplies to the VA. Hourigan Will Not Run Again Judge Andrew Hourigan of Wilkes-Barre announced today he will not be a candidate for re-election to another ten-year term as president judge of the Orphans Court of Luzerne County. Judge Hourigan's announcment was contained in a letter which the jurist sent to Governor John S.

Fine at Harrisburg. In deciding to retire from the bench at the conclusion of his present term, the judge explainded that condition of his health will not permit him to consider further service on the bench. He has been a patient in Mercy Hospital for the past three months and, while showing improvement, his physicians decided against any further participation in a political campaign. In his letter to Governor Fine, Judge Hourigan explained "the knowledge I would not be meeting my obligation in full if I gave less than the services and faculties of a judge in good health made in- evitable the step I have now seen fit to take." With announcement that Judge Hourigan would not seek re-elec tion, it was learned today that Dis- tnet Attorney Leon Schwartz will file on both the Democratic and Republican tickets for the judicial post. Judge J.

Harold Flannery has filed on both tickets for re-election. City police said today that William A. Zimmerman, 68, who has been missing from his home at 576 North Vine street since Wednesday morning was reported seen on Highway 309 near Hudsondale this morning but up to press time he had not been located in that vicinity. A motorist told Chief Steve Havrilla he saw a man answering Zimmerman's description walking along the road in the direction of Beaver Meadows. City Detectives Tony Stevens and Al DeFrancisco immediately scouted the area of Spring Mountain, Hudsondale and Beaver Meadows but saw no one fitting the description.

bearchers were still active in the vicinity this afternoon. Members of the family said today that Zimmerman was report ed seen at noon Thursday on First street, between Alter and Locust streets. No later information has been received by the family, they said. The person who reported seeing the missing man on First street was not identified. Zimmerman's wife reported him missing last night after he failed to arrive at the home of his sister, Mrs.

Fred Haas, wife of an Al-lentown physician. Mrs. Zimmerman told police her husband started out Wednesday morning to take a train for Allentown to visit Mrs. Haas. For more than 25 years, Zim merman has been a music teacher and organist at St.

Paul's Methodist church and Beth-Israel Tem ple. Police said they had not determined if the man boarded the 8:20 a. m. Lehigh Valley Railroad train that he was scheduled to take to Allentown. He was described as quite bald, five feet, eight inches tall, and weighing 135 pounds.

He was wearing a dark blue pin-striped suit, a brown felt hat and wore glasses. COMPLETES FURLOUGH Pfc. Lawrence J.
