Maturing Movement Women's liberation seems to have put on a different face in the past two years. The recent Rochester sym- posium, \\Working Women and the American Dream,\ was an example of the maturity . that's come to the movement. About 50 persons beyond the planned 350 were admitted to the Brick Presbyterian Church before fire regulations forced many others to be turned away. Women's liberation has Trespectable. Not so long ago, a meeting would have involved little more than a private gripe session in someone's living room, an exchange of bitter experiences producing mostly : anger and frustration. The nature of the movement's support has changed: the early corps of blue-jeaned coeds has been heavily augmented by older so-called \straight\ women. The focus, too, is different. In contrast to the early, sometimes painfully - contrived sisterhood sessions, the women met here last week to deal with specific problems and solutions. a This approach is less ex- citing and possibly less rewarding on a personal level, but it 'should be far more productwe in combating the pervasive discrimination against women in this coun- try. The battle has moved beyond superficial arguments about symptoms-whether to light a cigarette or open a - door. The concern now is with issues: how to file a complaint about job discrimination ; solid recommendations on child care, job-hunting and education. Credit is due those early _bra-burners who first focused media attention on yet another \'minority'\'. But the real advances will be made by women like those who met here: women who are fully aware that it's an uphill battle but determined to pursue it daily without publicity-and with a sense of humor. | -ROCHESTER DEMOCRAT & CHRONICLE Four Now School Bd.

Albion Looting ALBION - Police of the local department, aided by other law agencies, are probing three more burglaries which occurred in the village last night. These follow several week end lootings in- cluding one in which nearly 30 guns were taken. Last night the break-in activity concerned Crown Motors auto agency on Main St., Nayman Outboard on Orchard St. and the old Penn Central rail depot which is now used for storage. - Patrolman Joseph Sacco of the Albion Police Dept. said candy, cigarette and coffee machines were rifled at Crown Motors with about $20 to $30 in change gone. At Nayman Outboard, the owner was on the premises and reportedly chased an intruder along the canal bank when he discovered him about 11:40 p.m. At the depot nothing is yet listed as missing. Windows and doors were pried in the burglaries. Patrolman Sacco said Chief Sheriff's Deputy Lake aided in dusting for fingerprints and one suspect is being questioned. ‘ Deaths; EDWARDS, JAMES become _ OUR] AL EGISTER Servmg The Lake Plains Country- Orleans; Nzagara, Genesee ity near zero f flit-“Wed ther Clear and cold tomght frost likely.

MEDINA NEW YORK WEDNESDAY Supporters Turn Out At St SHELBY - Supporters of a snowmobile and mini-bike race track on Blair and Salt Works roads in Shelby defended the operatlon last night before the town's Zoning Board of, Appeals and urged grantmg of a variance to permit its continuance in the area. The hearing, n ecess1tated by a re-evaluation of the town zoning ordinance, was, attended by about 50 people including several residents of the irea who have. complained the track is a public nuisance. > Lasting about one hour before zoning enforcement officer Kenneth Schaal, who conducted the hearing, called it to a close, the Town Hall meeting heard an Towne House Units Plans revealel‘at the meeting of the Village Board. last night appear to add ariother project to the growing actnfiltym using in Medina.

'The dispute over the future of the snowmobile track came to light in April at a meeting of the Shelby Town Board when the municipality made public a letter from an area resident criticizing the track's operation. Leonard Smith, 4605 Salt Works Rd., who was present at Village ‘ SeWage Members of the Village Board heard a general discussion last night of the sewage plant and sewage system upgradmg which the community faces in the next three years. Peter K. Wendel of Wendel Associates, Lockport, delivered an hour-long report with the cost estimates and a tentative timetable. Medina has been given until 1975 to add secondary sewage treatment to its primary treatment plant, on order of the Dept. of Enwronmental Con- servation. Engineering consultant Wendel said last night that $1.2 million could be seen as the necessary expenditure for the secondary treatment plant added to the present Meqdina facility and also for phosphate removal treatment. - He added up to $3 million might be required for the plant and that remedial 335k on the sewage system itself, including local sewer lines, overflows, holding basins as required and other work to bring) Medina into total conformity by 1975. The present primary treat- ment plant was c mpleted for Medina in the early 1960s at a cost of around $700,000.

At the board meeting, officials of the club denied the track was in violation of the ordinance and said they had been informed - before they set up the site that they would be in accordance with the zoning restrictions. Nevertheless, track officials applied through the town for a variance. - Town - officials determined that such a request was proper and the hearing was scheduled for last night. - Most of the arguments at the hearing centered around the actual operation by the cluh rather than any violation of the town zoning code. William Menz, an official of the club, said his organization was Faces Revision costs in general have been rising at the rate of one per cent per month in recent years. But he pointed out to trustees here that in order to complete a secondary facility for Medina and work on the system by 1975, it would be necessary to begin this year on what is called the - \Waste Water Facilities Report\ which must be reviewed by the environmental agency. And he pointed out the dif- ferent legislation and rulings which keep . changing requirements almost daily. \There are funny things going on in the state,\ he said candidly. And he pointed out that for an entire 6-county area only one man is available to review all waste water treatment programs for communities, thus delaying approvals for long periods. Wendel said as a rough estimate that six months would be needed for state review, then final detailed engineering plans put on paper, and construction to begin in late summer of 1974. He suggested that such a project would probably be handled on a 20-year bond issue by a com- munity such as Medina. - Also, it was pomted out that federal aid of 70 p.c. is virtually certain on the construction of the secondary sewage treatment plant itself. Uncertain, however, are the sources and amounts of aid for remedial work on the sewer system and for the ad- vance planning. It was estimated that if the initial sampling and reports were undertaken later this year it would cost up to $65,000 for this phase of the three-year project. Medina has faced loss of $12,000 annually in federal aid for operation of its present treat- ment plant if it does not comply with the 1975 deadline for secondary treatment. Mayor John Cobb last night ordered contacts made as soon as possible with FHA and other governmental agencies to see if planning money is available. Planning work, outside of actual technical problems, would include popula fon projections and forecasts of needs for 20 years in the future. GOOD WILL _ ATLANTA (UPI)-A fried chicken firm, picketed by workers for more job security and better working conditions, has agreed to fry all the chicken it has for the poor people in Atlanta as a sign of good will. - \just asking\ for an area in which to conduct snowmobile racing. He answered criticisms that the track was improperly maintained and operated by arguing that the club does its best to meet all applicable health and safety standards. Schaal asked Menz whether or not the club could supply the board of appeals with a set of detailed plans on the track's operations. Menz said that if given some time, he was sure the club could submlt such a document. Menz said the club wants to hold snowmobile races on 16 days of the year and mini-bike races on three: He said a proof of in- surance permit, which the club must acquire from the state prior to each racing day, allows them to run from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. He said most races do not begin until 11 a.m. and end during the winter before dark. Some objections had been raised at the hearing about snowmobilers using the track illegally at night but track ef- ficials denied this. Supporters of the track said it provided their families with a recreational activity in an area which they said has not had many opportunities for winter recreation. - The appeals board has 60 days in which to render a decision, although Schaal said last-night: - he expected some sort of determination on the variance request (allowing the club to continue its operation) within 10 days.

STANGER PARIS (UPI)-North Viet- nam today charged that Pres- ident Nixon's blockade violated the Geneva Accords on Indochi- na and accused 'presidential adviser Henry Kissinger of deliberately distorting his ac- count of the latest secret peace talks. Hanoi negotiators Xuan Thuy and Le Duc Tho made the statements as Thuy left Paris for Moscow en route to Hanoi for emergency consultations following Nixon's decision to blockade ports in North Viet- nam. Thuy told reporters at Orly Airport Nixon's plan was a violation of the 1954 Geneva agreement and \the pnnclpal elements of international law.\ Tho said he and Thuy met secretly with Kissinger in Paris Says Blast | May 2 and that Kissinger lafler ''violated his promises about secret talks. He was careful to distort the contents of those talks.\ He did not detail the alleged distortions. Kissinger, he said, “proposed nothing new and only main- tained the, eight-point plan of President Nixon which is: a position of aggression and colonialism.\ The chief Viet Cong negotia- tor, Mme. Nguyen Thi Bl‘%:l was at the airport to see Thi off and told reporters: “We cannot stay here (in Paris) forever without negotiating.\ , ' South Vietnam and the Unwed States suspended the talks last Thursday,. claiming the Com- munists showed no willingness to negotlate in public or private sessions.

Camp Fund Needs Spurt The Journal-Register Camp Fund is approximately three weeks away from the end of its two-month campaign this year, the 20th year that it has been sponsored, and approximately $400 is needed to bring the fund up to the $3,000 goal as set for 1972, With the addition of $500 received from two foundations, this total will bring the amount subscribed up to the amount which has been contributed for the past two years. \ The Child Welfare Association, under whose auspices the sum- mer camp project is carried out, have announced that they have engaged the entire Camp at Troutburg for one camping per- iod. This will provide for about 100 campers and it is their hope - that the Journal-Register fund - this ear will be sufficient to provxde reservation for“ this num- ber.

One well-placed administra- tion source said the White House assumed the Soviet leaders were engaged in intense discussions on how to respond : to Nixon's moves; and Wash- \ ington was braced for a response that would have a negative impact on the meeting scheduled to begin May 22. At the same time the source said high administration offi- cials still hoped the Russians would take a broad view on the situation. | - ' Administration aides said it would be a loss if the Soviet Union jeopardized the gain the two countries have made toward arms limitation, trade and the easing of tensions in Europ 1 subjects on the agenda for the meeting between Nixon and the Soviet leaders MORE GIFTS to JOURNAL-REGISTER 1.
