'Shep Y Chan ge s Hands TISH AND MARIE' TAKE OVER: Mrs . Elizabeth Newham and Mrs. Marie Vi gnato , w idely-known as \Tish\ and Marie , daughters of the prominent local restaurateurs , Mr. and Mrs. Clarence Lagumis of 300 North Ocoan avenue , Patch- ogue , took over operation of \Shop ' s \ stand at the Sandspit August 13. Mr. and Mrs. Hcury Shepnerd , of 2D Potter avenue , Patchogue , who built the refreshment stand six years ago , were forced to sell tho business because of illness. They intend to take a lengthy rest and later on may visit their son , Bra d fo rd Nye , and his wife in Texas. The new proprietors are veter- ans in the restaurant field , having been associated with their parents , who opened the Olympia on South Ocean avenue , Patchogue , about 35 years ago , and later operated the Lagumis tea room , now Rais- sis ' , on East Main street for al- most 25 years. \Tish\ is married to Arthur Newham , Jr., who is a dock and bulkhead builder , and they live nt 41 Cedar avenue , Patchogue. Marie ' s husband is Nick Vignato of Main Taxi. Then- home is at 14 Bay avenue , Patchogue. The new owners, whose five- year lease will start in May of next year , will continue until then on a transfer of the current lease which was approved by the Brook- haven To wn Trustees on Tuesday. \Tish\ and Marie say they 'll continue to provide the same tine service offered by Marion and Henry Shepherd during their G years at, the Sandspit. The stand will remain open this fall as long as weather permits. In recalling his early days at the Sandspit , Mr. Shepherd , a former Patchogue fircchief , said that he saw the area grow into the fine recreational spot it is today. When he built \Shep ' s , \ there was hardly more than the bulkhead. Then the Town Trus- tees surfaced the roads and later added the popular playground area which today attracts hundreds of persons each day to the Sandspit. FD' t Block Party Plans Free Dancing CENTEREACH — The Center- each Fire department has sched- uled a block party for Wednesday ni g ht and another for the night of August 30.

The firemen ' s parade night will be Wednesday, and officials expect it to be one of the largest on the Suffolk circuit this season. There ' s One to Please You ...

PATCHOGUE fJB&i HEATING EQUIPMENT MwWord AwMB 34667 Dealers Wanted PATCHOGUE A portable traffic light may be in the offing here for the Bay Avenue school. Mayor George E. Lech- treckor suggested the possi- bility of the portable signal to Village trustees at their meeting Monday night as the answer to requests by several residents for police control of intersections at the school. If purchased , the light, which weighs about 400 pounds and .stands about eight feet high , could also be used in case of power failure or other emergencies, tho mayor said. The light would cost about $400. Portable Traffic Li ght Considered for School East Moriches Civics Request Cupsogue Wo rk Suggest Improvements for Bathing Area at Town Trustees ' Meeting Mrs. Donald Druckemiller , rep- resenting the East Moriches Civic association , appeared before . the Brookhaven Town Trustees Tues- day here and outlined a set of proposed improvements for Cup- sogue beach , the only town-owned ocean-front bathing area that can be reached by car. At a meeting Frida y the Civic l association adopted a resolution i citing the \fantastic increase in { use of Cupsogue beach this sum- ! mer. \ The civics pointed out tha t j it is not unusual for 300 to 350 : ears to storm the parking lot on ! a Sunday. | \The association , \ said Mrs. i Druckemiller , \ wants written as- ! surance that the beach will not be ! sold. \ She said that the Trustees I had previously given oral assur- ance tha t the property would be retained for use of Brookhaven town residents , but to still some rumors , the civics preferred to have it in writing. Among the things the civics want at Cupsogue are better su- pervision , safety provisions and sanitation facilities. The beach , the civics say, should be maintained for use only by town residents , the parking field should be extended , life preserv- ers should be available and life- guard protection is needed on weekends. It would be nice , too , the civics suggest , if a channel were dredged to permit boat-own- ers to reach Cupsogue beach where , they also suggest , a dock could be constructed. Mrs. Druckemiller told the trustees that Cupsogue , with its surf , was attracting water enthu- siasts fro m all over the township, including the North Shore. She agreed that the special officer placed there on weekends by the trustees had helped a great deal , but there is p lenty of room for impro vement. Captain Robert F. Wells , presi- dent of the board , told Mrs. Druck- emiller that every member of the board would like to see Cup- sogue beach improved but two big obstacles stand in the way — storm damage and bud get limi- tations. It was pointed out that last winter the storms covered the parking field with 18 inches of sand. According to the trustees , stabilization of the Moriches inlet may alleviate the situation. The entire project , the trustees estimated , would cost in the neigh- borhood of |175 , 000 and therefore would have to be undertaken ove r a number of years , like the Port Jefferson dock and Davis Park improvements. Mrs. Druckemiller was requested by the board to find out which of the improvements the Civic as- sociation considers the most im- portant. The trustees then will try to make provision for the im- provement in next year ' s budget. William W. Parrott , Patchogue Village clerk , appeared before the board and requested permission to erect four stone jetties , about 50 feet long, near the foot -of South Ocean avenue , off the new Patch- ogue Recreation park , to prevent erosion. Mr. Parrott was given permis- sion for the village to go ahead with the jetties providing a De- partment of the Army permit can be obtained. The Connecticut State library at Hartford , in a letter to the Town Trustee s , requested a copy of book B relating the history of the Town of Brookhaven , to complete the library ' s 3-volume set. Town Clerk Percy B. Raynor was in- structed to forward the desired book to Connecticut.

Nine Busloads of Young Rooters See Dodgers , Giants in Brooklyn Nine busloads of djoys and girls left Patchogue ' at 10 a. m. last Thursday for Ebbets Field where the youngsters saw the Giants and the Dodgers tangle in one of thei r patented thrillers. The young baseball fans saw the game and became members of the Brooklyn Dodgers ' Knot-hole 's club and the trip was made pos- sible mainly through the sale of tickets for Patchogue night at Ebbets field on July 25. Patchogue Lodge of Elks spon- sored the tri p with Exalted Ruler Herman Saperstein , Past Exalted Ruler Harry Novick and Chairman Al Brown taking care of most of the a rrangements. Cooperating in the project were local service organizations , Mastic and Blue Point Little leagues and the Brookhaven Town PAL. The 467 boys and girls had a full day of excitement with the Giants fans having a bit the bet- ter of it , since the Polo Grounders took the Brooks into camp by a 4-3 score. When the buses rolled back into Patchogue about 7 p. m., the Knothole Gang ' s newest members were pretty tired but not too ex- hausted to tell everyone what a great time they had. Vandals Strike Second Time Within Months at Lake Home LAKE RONKONKOMA — For the second time in severa l months , vandals have damaged a new house constructed here on Konkonkoma avenue for Mrs. Julia A. Barbera of Innis avenue . Mrs. Barbera reported to Brookhaven Town police on Sunday that ¦ ^someone had turned the water on in the kitchen sink and had placed a \ hose in a cabinet drawer and ftired t he water pump to keep it ranking. ' . WJien discove red , there were tn ' recTTtiches of water in the cel- lar and the pump had stopped , apparently fro m a burned-out mo- tor. Accovding to Mrs. Barbera , the vandalism took place between Friday and Sunday. The previous damage to the house was done by hoodlums who broke through the cellar window and wrote in the freshly-laid ce- ment floor. The vandals also used heavy blac k crayon to scraw l on the new p ine cabinets in the kitch- en. The earlier bit of vandalism was not reported to the police. Patrolman John Clark of Brook- haven Town police investigated but could find no footprints at the «cene because of the heavy week- end rains. The police still are in- vestigating the incident. Residents of South Dunton ave- nue , East Patchogue , are reported to be annoyed by an outbreak of vandalism involving broken safety signs and overturned mail boxes. The residents of the area have notified police and postal author- ities.

Urgent Plea Made B y State for Steel Scrap from Farms ALBANY — The Nation ' s need for steel scra p was again brought to the doorsteps of New York state ' s 149 , 500 farms in a special plea this week by Commissioner Harold Keller of the New York State Department of Commerce. Commissioner Kelle r ' s request to farm owners and managers to join in the steel scra p drive aug- ments earlier appeals by the dean of the Cornell College of Agricul- ture , the Cornell Extension se rv- ice and the County Farm bureau age n ts. \Large additional tonnages . of scra p are needed , \ Commissioner Keller said , \if the industry is to meet the increased production demands of defense and civilian economy needs. \Scrap inventories at steel plants; and foundaries are danger- ously low , far below the 60-da y supply for this time of year. This is» due to the seasonal slump In scra p collections during the win- ter and spring. Farm owners and managers can contribute much to the defense effort by selling their steel and iron scrap to the near- est scrap dealer. We urge this be done as rapidly as possible. \ Two Mastic WorJ Are Hurt in AcciJ Two Mastic women re;* slight injuries in a two-can dent on Route 27 at Lenox j nue . East Pati-hogm. - , at 5: 'j m.
