a] ald lfl‘g 9 Op Blowing Cold On Hot Dogs Our mind reels over a news story saying thathot dogs are under Consumers Union at- tack as a health risk. To say this is to remain sitting during the playing of The Star Spangled Banner! It is to banish both Mom and her applepie from the kitchen! It is a downpour of rain on the afternoon of the picnic, Scrooge stirring sait, ants and gall into the ice cream!... It is alt of this and more, and we reject it in the name of the juices, the relish, the mustard and other savories squeezed out of one end of the well warmed split roll as we © hungrily and happily sink our ' teeth into the other end. In- ! deed, that's what it is. The ' end.

Edmund S. Muskie is trying to fight off the Democratic challenge of Sen. George McGovern. On election eve Monday Muskie responded to Mc- Govern's challenge to disclose sources of campaign funds. Muskie said that he had revealed his entire earnings in 1970 and that McGovern \wait- ed 14 months until the eve of the New Hampshire primary so he could make an issue of it.\ McGovern called Muskie's response \a desperation tac- tic,\ and said that the 1970 disclosures were actually ex- penses for re-election to the Senate. The financing question was also picked up by a group callling itself the Committee for Honesty In Polites, headed by Stewart R. Mott. Mott an- nounced in New York that the committee woud run advertis- ments in 25 Florida newspapers four days before the March 14 primary to label Nixon \eyni- cally corrupt\ and Muskie \deceitful\. The committee linked Nixon to & $205,000 \political handout\ his brother Donald received from - industrialist Howard Hughes, said the Republican party received $322,500 from a dairy farmer organization \in exchange for rigged increases\ in the price of milk, and cited the alleged $400,000 pledge for the GOP National Convention from an International Tele- phone & Telegraph Corp. subsidiary. McCloskey, who along with Rep. John M. Ashbrook is challenging Nixon for the GOP nomination, will decide by Friday whether he will stay in the race. Friday is the deadline for filing for re-election to the House from California. School Bill Defeated ALBANY, N.Y. (UPI)-School children who had fears they might have to go to school during the lazy, hazy days of summer apparently can forget about the prospect for at least another year. The Assembly Monday defeat- ed, 104-20, a bill that would have given local school districts the right to hold classes on a year - 'round basis. Such measures have been defeated | for the past several years and the bill's sponsor, Assemblyman Joseph R. Pisani, R - New Rochelie, had modified this year's proposal in an effort to meet previous objections. The bill would have allowed local school districts to establish a continuous education program subject to local referendum. Students would still attend classes 180 days a year, as they do at present, but vaca- tions would have been staggered so that an equal number of pupils were in class each month of the year. . Pisani told his colleagues that the plan would save money by lessening the need for additional construction, and that it had the support 'of the State Education Department.

Walkley of Castile, incumbent of the new Assem- bly District which include, Or- leans, Genésee and parts of Wyoming and the Township of Hamlin in Monroe County, ad- vised the Republican county chairman of the four counties that he will not be a candidate for renomination to his present post. This is in effect positive proof that Walkley has assur- ances that he will become head of the State Department of Ag- riculture and Markets. This in- formation was given to Repub lican County Chairman Curtis L. Lyman over the week-end. Walkley's announcement he believed to be imperative at this time, even though his appoint- ment will apparently not be made until after the end of the present legislative session, be- cause March 21 is the opening date of which petitions may be circulated for the June Xth primary. The last date for fil- ing petitions for the primary is April 27. The announcement has caused a flurry of activity in both major parties as it was generally be- lieved that the Wyoming Coun- ty legislator would be a candi- date to succeed himself; and in this event with his seniority and record in the Assembly would have been difficult to unseat. Dogfight Over DMZ _SAIGON (UPD-A U.S. Navy Phantom shot down a slow- moving MIG17 jet in a five- minute dogfight over North Vietnam Monday, but Radio Hanoi said Communist gunners shot down two U.S. planes with antiaircraft fire. _ ° ° The dogfight, which one U.S. source said was the largest in Indochina since the cutback in the air war in 1968, took place over Quan Lang _ Airfield midway between Hanoi and the Demilitarized Zone (DMZ). The U.S. refused to say how many U.S. planes took part in the fight but a spokesman said F4s, Abs and A7s participated. Informed sources said about eight U.S. planes were involved -halk of them F4 fighter- bombers. The Communist aircraft in- cluded four Mig1i7s and one Mig21, a much faster later model, the U.S. Command said.

Smith Now Serves Orleans As the shift in Congressional representation suddenly moved east under remapping which was announced Monday, Orleans County lost the representation of the long-familiar Barber B. Conable Jr. of Genesee County and gained representation by Henry P. Smith III of North Tonawanda. Conable moved east to take Livingston and part of Ontario Counties in trade for giving up his Erie County area and Or- leans County. Smith picked up Orleans and the Monroe County towns of Hamlin, Clarkson, and Sweden. Congressman Smith, a Repub- lican, was born in N. Tonawanda Sept. 29, 1911, attended Nichols School in Buffalo and was grad- uated from Dartmouth College and Cornell Law School.

Democrat in Race for 137th Assembly Seat - With Republicans scrambling to get in a bid for the State Assembly position which Frank Walkley of Castile is resigning to become - Agriculture - Com- missioner, there has been no noise up to now from Democratic circles. But today the first entry was made known. Paul J. Weiss, 3rd Ward Democratic councilman in Batavia, announced that he is a candidate for Assembly in the new 137th District consisting of . Orleans, Genesee and Wyoming Counties and the Town of Hamlin in Monroe. The 26-year-old councilman, who lives at Pickthorn Drive in Batavia, was elected to the council here in 1970 to fill an unexpired term and was the youngest person ever named to the council; also the first Democrat in a - heavily Republican ward. Although the new 137th Assembly Dist. is heavily Republican, Weiss said he plans a vigorous campaign. He is a native of Batavia and son of the Inaugurates State Lottery HARRISBURG, Pa. (UPI) - Pennsylvania inaugurated a weekly state lottery today. Top prize was $50,000 and a chance to try for $1 million. Millions of 50-cent tickets went on sale at 6,500 licensed establishments- banks, depart- ment stores, food stores, bars, restaurants and gas stations. Robert P. Kane, state secre- tary of revenue, said he hoped five million to six million tick- ets would be sold the first week. The first drawing will be held here March 15. | For every million tickets sold, there will be one $50,000 prize and 1,2%9 other cash prizes scal- ed down to $40. Weekly winners and 99,000 other tickets also will be entered in a $1 million drawing. late Genesee County Judge Philip J. Weiss. He is a business teacher at Notre Dame High School here, and a member of the Area Planning Board. He will seek the Genesee County Democratic Committee en- dorsement March 15 and also will seek similar endorsements in the other counties affected. Weiss commented today, \It is time to take our state's operation out of the hands of downstate political bosses and return it to the taxpayers.\ Re- ' Congr es~smen W ap Bella\ Wiped Out, But Won By RICHARD CHADY ALBANY, N.Y. (UPI) - Rep. Bella S. Abzug, the Manhattan Democrat who bulled her way into Congress with tough talk and colorful clothes, vowed Mon- day night not to be forced out of office by a legislative com- mittee dominated by upstate, male Republicans. \I shall run for re - election- regardless,\ the fiery freshman said in a statement from her New York City office. \In a test of strength with the old stylepoliticians,\ he said, \I place my trust in the people who are more than ever deter- mined to have new, activist leadership and in women who are demanding that they get more representation in Congress, not less.\ a Mrs.Abzug did not indicate if she will- oppose either of two liberal Democratic incumbents in Manhattan, or the Staten Island Democrat who inherited most of her southern Manhattan territory, including Greenwich Village and Chinatown. Under the reapportionment plan revealed Monday, Mrs. Abzug is the only one of the state's 41-member congressional delegation to have his or her district wiped off the map. The GOP plan, which will probably be passed by the leg- islature Wednesday, leaves Mrs. Abzug livingin a lengthy West Side area now represented by William F. Ryan. Despite Mrs. Abzug'sattempt tocapitalize on a \gerryman- der\ charge, GOP leaders main- tained that she was a casualty of population changes, which forced the state to drop from 41 to 39 congressmen. Assemblyman Francis J. Bo- land, R-Binghamton, chairman of the reapportionment commit- tee, said it had achieved its main goal of meeting\one man, one vote\ standards by keeping the districts within .1 per cent of the standard of 467,725 per- sons. _ \There was absolutely no at- tempt to do anything to Bella Abzug, or Howard Robison, or anyone else,\ said Boland. \My own congressman (Robison), the dean of the Républican delega- tion, is upset because his district is being extended 100 miles,\ Belfast Bomb BELFAST, Northern Ireland (UPI)'-A bomb blew \a hole 'the size of a bus\ today in the floor of a Belfast department store, but an attempted ma- chinegun assassination of a part-time soldier failed when the intended victim punched one of his assailants in the nose. * CAC To Open First Neighborhood Center ALBION - The Orleans Coun- ty Community Action Committee announced today a neighborhood center serving the townships of Kendall, Murray and Clarendon will be opened in Holley later P this month. Erma Ford, executive director of CAC, said another center is planned for Medina serving the townships of Yates, Ridgeway and Shelby. The Holley center, which will receive funding through CAC, has scheduled a meeting for Mar. 11 at 3 p.m. in order to elect an advisory council. Located in a building in Pub- lic Square which once housed Korn's Market, the Holley cen- ter will be run by the advisory council composed of low, income area residents, members of var- ious area organizations and rep- . resentatives of local govern- ment. <_ ' Mrs. Ford said the Medina 'center will be opened once a location is secured. She indi- cated negotiations are underway a'tt this time to locate a suitable site. | Funding for the two. centers was contained in CAC's budget for this year. Mrs. Ford said she hopes professionals from the field of law will volunteer their time to the centers in order to rovide counseling services. ''This center is being estab- lished for all persons of the Holley and Kendall School Dist- tricts,\ Mrs. Ford said in a pre- pared statement. \It is for everybody, including all age groups.\ Hours for the center will be established by the advisory council, as will most of the pro- grams set up for the area. \We're hoping that things like ceramics and some of the lost arts can be taught at the cen- ter,\ Mrs. Ford said. \We'd like to see the senior citizens get involved to teach youngsters some of these skills.\ The advisory council was set up, Mrs. Ford said; in order to insure local autonomy and con- trol, even though funds will come through CAC. |_ \\What's good for Holley,\ Mrs. Ford explained, \is not neces- sarily good for Medina. That's why we've got them set up that way.\ ' 't Give Up Boland said. The 15 - year veteran's lines now start in Chemung County, and plunge eastward through Delaware, Sullivan and Ulster counties. ' The only© other - dramatic change upstate is for Rep. Hamilton Fish Jr., R-Millbrook, who loses a vast area to the west, out through Otsego and Scoharie counties, and is con- densed into Dutchess, Putnam and parts of Ulster and West- chester counties. In the downstate area, Demo- crats James H. Scheuer and Jonathan B. Bingham appear in the same district, Republican Seymour Halpern and Democrat Lester L. Wolff would be lump- ed in the same district, and a new Nassau - Suffolk district would, be created. on Long Island. _ New York lost two congress- men because its population grew less slowly than'states in the West and South since the 1960 census.. Because of the move- ment to the suburbs, Boland said, Manhattan had to lose oné of its four congressmen, Lower Manhattan was then linked with Staten Island, as was done with new Senate and Assembly lines. The island is now represented by Democrat John N. Murphy. _- Districts® are virtually un- changed for the two black repre- sentatives, Shirley A.
