Two 13-year-olds and one 14- year-old , all of Mastic , were ap- nrehended by two Fifth Precinct patrolmen. Police Lieut. James Dahill of the Juvenile Aid Bureau of Suffolk County Police , said the bureau is investi gating the case to determine whether the boys will face charges in Children ' s Court . Patrolman Fletcher A. Baldwin said that by coincidence he was passing the store about 1 a.m. in his patrol car when he received a radio call that there was an at- tempted burg lary at the Carvel stand. He swung his car into the parking area , he said , and sur- prised the youths. On the appearance of a police officer the youths ran , police said , and Patrolman Baldwin fired a warning shot into the air. The pa- trolman , police said , grabbed one of tbe thii teen-year-olds and the other two fled into the area behind the store. Late r , Patrolman Nelson Col- lins, Jr. apprehended two youths on Montauk Highway whom Pa- trolman Baldwin said were the other members of the gang at the Carvel store. Police said a rock was used to smash the vending machine. Police Sg t . Henry Bach was also called to the seen' 1 . According to Fifth Precinct po- lice records a cigarette vending machine was broken into at the same location about three weeks ago. Breaking into a vending machine constitutes petit larceny.

But with the phenomenal growth of pleasure boating in recent years , increasing emphasis is now being p laced on preventing trouble be- fore it starts. Operating out of Moriches Life Boat Station , on a 24-hour basis , a United States Coast Guard patrol boat keeps Moriches Chan- nel clear for the passage of large craft , periodically boards plea- sure craft to spot-check on safet y equi pment and enforces New York State ' s recentl y instituted boat numbering system. ''Our biggest problem to date , \ says Chief Petty Officer Roy Jernigan , officer in charge at the lifeboat station , \is the boating public ' s lack of familiarity with proper numbering procedure. Boat numbers \ the chief stressed , \ should be broken up so that let- ters and numbers have spaces be- tween them. This system makes the serials more leg ible , \ he ex- plained. It is not our purpose to harass the boating public throug h board- ings or by pointing oui, infractions of safe boating rules , said Chief Jernigan. Our purpose is to pro- vide for the safe t y of boaters using the waterways. The chief recommends that boaters send for the Coast Guard' s Recreational Boating Guide for a wealth of information on making their hobb y more enjoyable ano safe.
