News of the Churches Red Cross Fund Campaign Now On in Patchogue The annual Red Cross fund drive is now under way in Patchogue , according lo Mrs. Donal d Foneel- lino , local chairman. More volunteers have offered their services, she said. They are Mrs. Samuel Siegel , Mrs. Samuel Ristich , Mrs. Mai-vin Nathan and Mrs. Catherine Sehweers , who are all serving as area captains. \Good things have been happen- ing through Red Cross , \ said Mrs. Eonoellino. \The organization was founded by voluntee rs , and today volunteers outnumber caree r work- ers 155 to 1. \The Red Cross operates under a charter granted by the Congress of the United States. While this charter imposes specific duties upon the Red Cross , the organ- ization receives its financial sup- port solel y from voluntary con- tributions from the American peo- ple. This is wh y the appeal for funds each year is so necessary. \A little known fact is that the President of the United States is honorary chairman of the Amer- ican Red Cross. \To hel p you know your Tied Cross better , a new pamp hlet was published this year called ' Facts 19G U. This question and answe r booklet is available to anyone who wishes it. Our volunteer marcher is carrying- a copy with her on her door to door calls for contributions. \We hope to reach our quota here in Patchogue this year.

Friday, we were called out to fig ht a fire in the Medford Hotel , a landmark in this area for many years. As is the case with many buildings in our district , plans for fighting fi res in them have been made , and the plan for fighting a fire in the hotel was put into immediate operation . On our arrival , the blaze was visible in the southeast corner of the second floor of the th ree-story building and smoke pouring from the eaves told us that tVi e fire was burning in the walls and directl y under the roof. Due to the balloon- type construction of the old build- ing the fire had spread through the inside of the walls. In less than six minutes from the sounding of the first blast of our siren , our trucks were pouring water on the flames , men were go- ing through the building looking fdr occupants , and calls to North Patchogue , Coram and Yaphank were sent in as it was then evi- dent a large supp ly of wate r would be needed. A large \feeder \ hose line was ran from our suppl y by the fire- house to the scene , (about 2 , 000 feet away). This feeder line , p lus the water carried on our truck s (which had to be rep lenished from time to time), p lus tankers fro m Coram and Yaphank gave us enough water to successfull y fig ht the blaze. The entire building was circled by fire trucks to contain the fire and to protect the many buildings adiacent to the hotel. \ The \'firemen ' s efforts were ham- pered by the thickness of the ex- terior and the interior of walls , floors , and ceilings—caused by the addition of much material over the original. Added effort was needed to remove portions of them to get at the fi re. Firemen at the scene were serv- ed coffee that was sent over from Mrs . Joe Thiemann of the Brau Haus next door. This was served by one of our Florence Nightin- gales , Mrs. Ray Kuczynski , who , in spite of the shivering air , remain- ed on the j ob throughout the time that the men fought the blaze. Had more time been needed to fight the fire , our Ladies ' Auxil- iary would have had a group out to dispense food and additional cof- fee. This is always true and these ladies willingly do this. The Veterans ambulance , as most always , was standing by when one of our firemen , Vincent Cerullo , cut his wrist on glass. The am- bulance rushed him to Brookhaven Memorial Hospital where he was stitched up and released. This fire was brought under conti'ol and extinguished b y co- operation and execution of a p lan worked out well before it was needed. To know what to do be- fore it has to be done has proved its worth again. After temporary patching, and salvage work by us and some min- or mopping up by the hote l man- agement , it was possible for the hotel to open for limite d business operation on the day following the fire. Volunteer organizations from our community and from neighboi- - ing communities together form a network of service and protection to all who need it , when they need it. Let me thank the North Patch- ogue , Coram and Yaphank Fire Departments for the parts they nlaved' and the coopei*ation they erave that made possible th« sav- ing of one of our landmarks. 48 District 33 Teachers to Get Salary Increase CENTER MORICHES — The Board of Education of School Dis- trict 33 announced last week an across-the-board raise of an aver- age of $300 a year for all teachers in the district. The pay raises af- fect 48 teachers according to Su- pervising Principal Stanley Ab- rams. The increases will become ef- fective at the start of the 1961- 62 school year , and are designed to place the Center Moriches Schools in a competitive position for obtaining and holding teach- ers, Mr. Abrams said. He added that even with the raise in sal- aries Center Morvehes is still about $100 below the average paid to starting teachers and by the salary schedules in some dis- tricts , not even in a competitive position concerning: more experi- enced teachers with advanced training. The new salary schedule will provide $5 , 000 for a starting teacher who is placed on the first step as far as experience and education is concerned. After 15 years with only a bachelor of arts degree and no additional courses , he can reach a maximum of $7, 800. A teacher with a master ' s de- gree plus 30 credits would start at $5 , 700 and reach a maximum after 15 years of $8 , 800. These raises average more percentage- wise for starting teachers than for more experienced teachers who have been on the staff for a number of years , Mr. Abrams said , even though everyone got a $300 raise. The new salary schedule was first drawn up by the board and then submitted to the faculty for approval . When submitted , the faculty was advised that if no objections were forthcoming, the board would adopt the schedule as presented , Mr . Abrams ex- plained. The board officially adopted the schedule today. Mr. Abrams said that the Board of Education had consid- ered several things in deciding upon the schedule which had a bearing on their over-all aims for the district of obtaining and then maintaining a first rate fac- ulty. \The board took into consider- ation such things as the ability of the district to pay the cost of any raise in salary, the posi- tion of the district in relation- ship to the salaries being paid by other districts and the number of faculty members residing within the district , \ he said. Also considered were the increased cost of living indexe s and > the cost of additional educational courses which in Center Moriches are borne completely by the teacher . The district at present has ap- proximately 80 per cent of its teachers residing within the area who take an active and important part in the civic and educational happenings of the district , Mr. Abrams said. \Our long range hope , \ he said , \is that we can obtain well quali- fied teachers and induce them to sta y within the district so that we will have a constant teaching staff. \We in District 33 feel that it is important for as many of our teachers as possible to reside within the area, but we do not mean by this that it is a requirement. The teachers who reside within a district help economically by spending their salaries there and are in a better position to know the needs of the children attending the schools. \ The board announced that it is expected that some slight raise- in the tax rate will be neces- sary to offset the costs of the pay raises. However , they added , that depending on state legisla- tion and the number of district student tuition fees received, a raise mav not be necessary. North Shore Zoning Petitions Up for Hearing The Brookhaven Town Board will conduct th ree public hearings on North Shore rezoning petitions at 7:30 p. m. Tuesday at the Terry- ville School , Terryville. The fol- lowing petitioners will be heard : Henry Ward Beer , \B\ residence to \J -2\ business on a parcel lo- cated oa the southerl y side of Route 25A and westerl y side of Miller Place-Middle island Road, School District 8 , Miller Place . f or \ commercial establishments \ ; Joseph Baio and peop le , \D\ residence to \J-2\ business on a 'parcel located north of Route 25A in Rocky Point and between Vat Bureu Street and Fish Road for the establishment of an oil busi- ness which will distribute and sell oil to local 'residents ; and Li ghthouse Beach Corp.

MC School District Adult Ed. Program To Offer Cancer Info . As a public service , the adult education program of Middle Coun- try Central School District 11 , in cooperation with the American Cancer Society , will offer a cancer information program. Dr. John Asher. obstetrician-gynecologist , of Smithtown and chairman of the professional education committee of the American Cancer Society, will conduct an information meet- ing for women at Newfield High School on Marshall Drive in Sel- den at 8:30 p. m. Wednesday and f or men at 8:30 p. m. March 16. Films will be presented and open-end discussions will follow. The public is invited to ask anv questions concerning t reatment , diagnoses and causes of cancer. Dr. Asher points out that con- trary to what was assumed be- fore , cancer may be present in the body for many years before it gives any symptoms at all. Phy- sicians have in their possession new ways and means to diagnose cancer at this early stage , when it is almost 100 per cent curable. The individual must know what to look for and when and why he should seek medical advice , he said. Education of the public is con- sidered the most important aspect in the fi gh t against cancer , accord- ing to cancer societ y officials.
