BY CARMEL A SOMMA I he Manorville Civic and Taxpayers meeting Friday night at the Manorville lands park proposal , upzoning, and the Association held their regular monthl y Fire House. Items discussed were the Wet- Newburgh welfar e problem. The Wetlands Park project which calls for county purchase (if lands around Caimans and Pe- conic Rivers , was described in de- tad. The president of the Manor- ville organization , Ernest Kol p h , reported on a meeting he attended in Calverton on the subject . A map of the land to be claimed by condemnation was supplied allow- ing the areas effected in Manor- vi. Ie and Ca ' .verton. Members present studied the information and voted unanimousl y against the project. The state is scheduled to pav about $3 , 000 , 000 on ihe Wetlands pioject , the county abo.i t $1,000 , - Ncxt on the agenda was a dis- cussion of the new upzoning or- ganization forming in Center Mor- iches. It was poimed out that with upzoning increasing the size of building plots , many present prob- lems of sub-standard housing, health and overcrowding would be solved. Members gave their ap- proval to the new organization and letters to this effect will be sent to the princi pals involved. The controversial welfare prob- lem now existing at Newburgh , was also discussed. This w a s of immediate interest because of the unemp loyment problems to the south of Manorville and the fear by some of the members that the unemployment problem could be- come as great a burden to local taxpayers as it is in Newburgh. The members went on record as favoring the tightening of welfare laws here as well as in the upstate community. The Manorville Civic and Tax- payers association meets the fourth Friday of every month at 8: ' A0 p. m. in the Manorville Fire House. All residents are invited to attend and give their opinions on topics discussed. Manorville Civics Discuss Wetlands Pk.

Later in the day a reception was held at the Acres Restaurant in Mastic Acres for the immediate family. The tables were decorated with white and gold floral pieces and Mrs. O'Connell wore a white orchid corsage , a gift from her family. Mr. and Mrs. Raymond Papa and Mr. and Mrs. Jack Humph- reys , proprietors of the Acres Restaurant , presented the honored coup le with a special cake inscrib- ed \Congratulations on your 50th anniversary. \ Mr. and Mrs. O'Con- nell were also the reci p ients of many beautiful gifts and congratu- latory messages , amongst which was a telegram from Rome ad- vising the O'Connells that the Pa- pal Blessing from the Vatican was on its way to this country. Joining in this event w ere Mr. and Mrs. Denis Sweeney and son , Jack of Parkchester; Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Ennis , Jr., and daughters , Terry Ann and Joan of Riverdale and Orchid Drive ; Mr. and Mrs. Laurence O'Connell , Jr., and sons , Laurence , III , Andrew and Fran- cis of the Bronx ; Major and Mrs. Joseph J. Feore and daug hters , Janice and Jean of Maryland ; Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Feore and chil- dren , Patty Ann , Thomas and Marybeth of Milford Conn.; Mr. and Mrs. John McHenry and daughters , Kathy, Colleen and Ai- leen of Hudson Falls; Mr. and Mrs. James Walsh and children. James , Jr., Margie , Maureen , Jo- seph and Ann of Brookl yn; and Sister James Maureen of the Or- der of the Sisters of Charity of Haverstraw. Mr. and Mrs. O'Connell arrived in the United States as teen-agers from Ireland , and it was on Ame- rican shores that they met and were married 50 years ago in the Carmelite Church in New York City. Mr. O'Connell was a mem- ber of the New York City Police Force and they resided for many years in Woodlawn . They were Summer residents of Mastic Beach prior to the retirement of Mr. O'Connell, and they have been year-round residents for the past 15 years. Mrs. O'Connell , a small , lively woman with quick eyes and a soft Irish brogue glories in her large family and her many grandchil- dren. She loves to have them around her — it keeps her think- ing young. Having three girls and one boy of her own , she and her husband undertook to raise the two boys and two girls of her brother-in-law and sister when they were left orphaned at an early age. The children ranged in age from a few months to five years , and just meant a few more places to set at the table. There was always plenty, and more than enough love and care to go around. Having seen their children happily married and raising families of their own , and a daughter who has dedicated her life to serving God and the Church , Ml- , and Mrs. O'Connell feel they have indeed been blessed. Mrs. O'Connell has a great in- Mrs. O'Connell has a great in- terest in all that goes on around her and is an active member of St. Jude ' s Rosary Altar Society and St. Jude ' s parish. They also belong to the Mastic Beach Pro- perty Owners Association. She likes to attend bunco and card par- ties , is an expert baker , as any of her grandchildren can testify, and likes to sew in her few lei- sure moments. She loves music , particularly those airs that bring back her girlhood memories of Ireland and its soft rolling hills and mists. She can still do a livel y jig or step-dance. Mr. O'Connell is a tall , quiet man , who carries his years well. A soft brogue is still discernible in his speech and he maintains a passionate interest in world his- tory and current affairs. He reads many books, magazines and peri- odicials dealing with these sub- jects. Since he is also well versed in the knowledge of birds and their habits , his grandchildren turn to him for knowledge on this subject. He is also a member of the St. Jude ' s Holy Name Society. Mr. and Mrs. O'Connell have made several trips back to Ire- land to visit relatives there and to \ revisit places dear to their hearts. But as they looked around at the happy, smiling faces of their children and grandchildren all gathered before them in joy- ous celebration of the occasion , they also know they have many happy memories and times to tie them * firmly to their adopted coun- tiy. Congratulations to you both , Mr. and Mrs. O'Connell. O'Connells of Mastic Beach Mark 50th Wedded Year Eastport Fire Department Schedules Barbecue Sat.
