Zoning Board Hearing Set on Tutoring School The Town Zoning Board of Appeals will hold a hearing August 17 at 2 p. m. on the application of two New York Cit y men for a non- conforming use of their Farmingville propert y for a boys ' tutoring school. Joseph S. Corbett , zoning board chairman , said the business is Deing conducted in a resiaentiar zone on Sycamore Avenue in Farmingville for boys from 12 to 14 years of age. According to informed sources opposition has been developing against the app lication because of the noise which the boys ai*e reported to make at the boarding establishment. The applicants are Messrs. Robert Gatling and Arthur Neale , who are tutoring 10 pupils. Hold Decision At its August 3 session the board continued to reserve decis- ion upon the app lication of Newell Theatre Corp. of Merrick to build an indoor theatre on Sunrise Hi g h- way near Pine Street , Patchogue. Attorney John Hart of Patch- cgue . who represents Newell , appeared before the board to ask it a decision would be given. His clients wish to build a theatre on about two acres. \The board cannot in propriety, Mr. Corbett said , \ pass jud gment on a portion of property involved in the original suit . The board will not make a decision on the Newell app lication until the Supreme Courts gives its decis- ion \ He referred to the case pending before Supreme Court Justice Henry M. Zaleski in Riverhead. Patchogue Sunrise-Drive-In , Inc. of Merrick , has contested the Brookhaven zoning board' s decis- ion to deny its app lication to build an outdoor , drive-in theatre on approximately 78 acres on Sunrise in Patchogue. Included in this land is the two-acre site on which Ne- well Theatre hopes to construct an indoor theatre. Storage Purposes The board approved the app lica- tion of Anthony J. Rudtke of Mt. Vernon Avenue , Medford , for a renewa l of his variance to use for storage purposes his building on Mt. Vernon Avenue about 700 feet south of Greenport Avenue. Mr. Corb e tt exp lained that refriger- ators and cooking ranges are stored at the building. The renewal app lication of Josep h and Linda Rinaldi of 1, '55 Clark Street , Patchogue , for a variance to continue operation of a day school at the Clark Street address was granted. Permission was also given the app licant , Al Druhm Fuel Oils , Inc. of 118 North Division Avenue. Blue Point , to install underground tanks for storage of fuel oil to- gether with pumps and loading area on the east side of Kennedy Avenue , about 831 feet south of Park Avenue , Blue Point. Moriches Area The board approved the applica- tion of Elvira and Angelo Squal- laro of Flushing, for permission to build a swimming pool in the rear of their home which is located on the northwest corner of Winnie Road and Laura Lee Drive , Center Moriches. A variance was required The successful publication ' of cheap, popular newspapers in the U nited States began with the ap- pearance of the New York Sun September 3 , 1833. because the town zoning ordi- nance stipulates a pool must be built on the rear of a lot and a corner lot would p lace the pool in a side yard. The board also granted a side and front-yard variance to the Mastic Fire Department for a pro- posed addition to the firehouse. fhe variance permits no front- yard where the ordinance requires 15 feet , and a three and one-half foot sid° yard, where the ordi- nance stipulates four feet. Center Moriches A ttorney Samuel Rabson , who was accom- panied by Thomas Eyton-Jones , represented the fire department. \The board was disposed to grant the variances , \ Mr. Corbett said , \because of the functional nature of the fire department and because it is a public utility.

Campus The administrative staff of Suf- folk County Community- College last week occupied the renovated administration building on the new campus of Suffolk County Conumunity College which was formerly the Suffolk County San- atorium. The administration building is the first building to be renovated. This building also served as the administration building for the for- mer sanatorium. A minimum amount of renovation was under- taken in this building, which in- cluded the moving of several par- titions , modernizing the interior lighting, and painting the inside and outside of the building. The college ad minst ration build- ing will house the offices of the president , the dean , the director of the Evening Division , and the di- rector of Business Affairs. Also housed in this building will be the admissions office , records office , and guidance counseling personnel. B y the middle of August the renovation of the two frame build- ings , immediatel y north and south of the administration build- ing, will have been completed. These two buildings will provide general classrooms and faculty of- fices. The renovation of the Marshall Building, which will become the science building for the college , is moving along rapidly. If the pre- sent schedule is maintained , most of the area to be used for educa- tional purposes is expected to be ready by the beginning of classes on September 25.

By November 1 the building should be completely renovated and avail- able for college use. The two remaining projects in- volve the completion of a 400-car parking field and installation of a campus lighting system. Since the beginning of extensive p lanning for the new college cam- pus , about March 1 of this year , the college officials said , there has been splendid cooperation on the part of the college board of trustees , the county executive , the county board of supervisors , the architect , and the various building contractors.
