Questions & Answers Q. I*- \ there an engine , recently invented , that operates by vacuum or atmospheric presume? A. The earliest practicable form of steam engine developed by Newcomen . worked bv atmosph- eric pressure. Stea m at only one or two pounds pressure was con- densed in the cylinder forming a partial vacuum beneath a piston. The pressure of the atmosphere then forced the piston dow n and this in turn operated a water pump. Practically all condensing engines operate under a partial vacuum. In some pumping and ma- l int engines the low pi essure cyl- inder works all the time under a pressure less than that of the atmosphere. Q. What is meant by the phrase \dia\\in» M > many feet of water \ when ro fei ring to a vessel ? A. A vessel is said to draw six- ty feet of water , for instance, -w hen it sinks to a depth of sixt y feet in the water , especially when loaded. ¦' ' ' II .. ¦—¦ — ' mtm^^^^^^m_m—w__mmmm- M__mm__mm^^mmmmmmmu__ ___m_mmw_ u-mmm _ ___ wa | •I' m o factory worker.

Another is planned for Terry Street. Last June , when a bulldozer began clearing land for a new industry, it meant the start of the newly zoned industrial park in the northern section of Bellport Central School District. The new Kastar plant , which opened in October , produces auto acces- ories, has . * *:2 , 000 square feet and will employ over 200 men and women. It is only one of many new plants to be installed on the f.7 1 acres set aside for industry, according to Lester V. Peter- son, director of new industry in Brookhaven Town. The auto parts plant followed construction of a huge , $750 , - 000 plant for Viewlex , Inc., on the Veterans Memorial Highway and Broadway in Holbrook last February. The plant makes cameras , projectors and related equipment. Last August , ground-breaking ceremonies were held for a new Federal Aviation Agency multi-million dollar ail* route traffic control center to be built at MacArthur Airport on the Veterans Memorial Highway in Islip Town. The building ' s cost was set at $2 , 500 , 000 , with another $15 , 000-000 to cover the cost of the radar communications, data processing and other electronic equipment to be installed. As for conservation , the Suffolk Board of Supervisors early in December approve d an expenditure of $1 , 380, 500 for dune restora- tion on Great South Beach ( Fire Island) and the dredging of a channel in Great South Bay j ust north of the Barrier Beach. One half of the total cost w ill be reimbursed to the county by the state. Suffolk' s wetlands program was approved by the county board of supervisors in July. The $4,000 , 000 prog ram calls for the taking of 4,400 aties ot* marsh and river basin land along the Peconic River in Riverhead and Brookhaven Townships , and a3on<? Caiman ' s River in Brookhaven. The property is to be acquired to preven t undesirable develop- ment , halt pollution , aid conservation and to preserve the cuiinU ' s dwindling fresh water supplies. Last April , the board approved a $4 , 000 , 000 bond issue to purchase the property. The state is to reimburse $3 , 000 , 000 of the total back to Suffolk. Later , the supervisors anpi-oved an $85 ,000 expenditure to conduct surveys of the property prior to the actual acquisition. The program received the endorsement of the county admin- istration , the county and state health departments , the county planning commission , and the department of public works. Opposition tn*opped up during the survey and , as of July, the supers were being urged to abandon the program. Opposition was yoiced by tho Long Island Duck Growers Cooperative , the Riverhead Town Board , Town Supervisor William J. Leonard , the Long- Inland Farm Buieau , the county agricultural commission and individuals. Late in the year the supervisors voted to review the whole program. Early in October , use of land proposed for condemnation by the town at West Meadow Beach as wetlands in a conservation program was overwhelmingly endorsed by about 70 persons at a i public hearing in the town hall. Supervisor August Stout , Jr., said the town proposed to ac- quiro about 91.3 acres at an estimated cost of $200,000 \for the orderly development of the area for the future . \ He noted that in the advertisement for the hearing it had been stated that the town intrmded to condemn the property for a town park and harbor. At the hearing, however , he said the town board has no \de- finite \ plans for the proposed land acquisition. The supervisor said it was the intention of the board to appoint a committe e of \ responsible citizens \ from the West Meadow Beach area to work with the town board , the town planning board and the town plan- ner to make plans '' step by step \ for development of the vicinity after the land is acquired for public use. The area in question is ad j acent to and south of the town- owned West Meadow Beach and extends behind Old Field Club , which is located on West Meadow Road , to Shipman ' s Point , a town spokesman said. As of early December , the town board adopted maps for filing in the county clerk' s office of propert y which the town intends to acquire at Mt. Sinai Harbor and West Meadow Beach . George E. Lechtreeker of Patehogue , special town attorney, was author- ized to proceed with the condemnation proceedings for the 557 acres which the town wishes to obtain at Mt . Sinai for a harbor and recreational facilities and for the 91 acres at West Meadow Beach It was estimated that it would cost $300 , 000 for acquisition oi the Mt. Sinai land. On the shocking side of the ledger was the knife slaving of former Riverhead Supervisor Joseph V. Kelly of 426 Griffing Avenue , Riverhead. Found guilty of the slaying was Wayne E. Dell , 22. a former Air Force man. He received a 20-years to life term in Sing Sing During the May school elections , two budgets were defeat- ed—one in Central School District 4 (Bellport-East Patchop-ue- Brookhaven ) and the other in the Port Jefferson-Terryville Dis- trict. PJ-Teri*yville voters , on the next round , voted a budget in. But it took three votes , one preceded bv an austerity program , before Central District 4 voters approve d a pared budget. Also of importance schoolwise was the i*efusal in a 5-3 vote bv the Bavport-Blue Point Board of Education to grant tenure to the district' s high school principal , Dr. Robert C. Whitsitt , late in December. Dr. Whitsitt' s tenure had been put on the block after some parents had accused him of being too strict a disciplinarian. Also , some members of the board reportedly felt his direct man - ner had \ offended\ some parents. I A controversy developed , one that lasted for a solid two months , in which Dr. Whitsitt received the direct backing from his immediate superior , District Principal Melvin B. Hill, and the nomination for tenure bv Walter M. Ormsby, superintendent of the Secon d Supervisory District. Immense backing also came I from the Citizens Committee for Better Education , headed by its temporary chairman , John T. Obrig of Bayport. , During a canvass of the district , committee members secur- ed the names of 670 resident? who favored granting tenure to Dr. Whitsitt. Mr. Obrig pointed out that votes in the school district bring out an average of 777. Despite the backing, the school board' s 5-3 vot e against ten- ure came December 15. Further action on the part of the com- mittee favoring Dr. Whitsitt was sta lled until after tho holidays. In the political world, the Republican Party regained Suf- folk Countv and Brookhaven Town control, with County Sheriff Charles R. Dominy of Bell port topping the incumbent Supervisor August Stout , Jr., of Center Moriches , the GOP , in all , winning seven out of 10 supervisor races. This gave the GOP a 7-3 maioritv on the board of super- visors, ending the 5-5 split in which County Executive H. Lee Dennison had the tie-breaking vote. In the Republican sweep, Edwin Arnzen of Confer Mori ches was elector! town clerk over Robort A. Coonev. Alex G. Prnios of Lake Ronkonkoma defeated the Democratic incumbent , Wil- fred J. Paouette , Jr .. of Coram , for the town tax r-*coivor post. Ro-elected to hi<* fourth term as town sunerint^ndent of highway**- was Republican Charles W. Barraud of Mt. Sinai. The Demorratic contender was Martin Met?ner of Lake Grove. The GOP ro-elected two -justices of the peace to serv e four- year terms. They are GOP Incumbents Leon E. Gmffroda of Centereach and Erlui g A. Larson of Ma^ic Beach. Their Demo- cratic opponents were Raymond Batt of Shirley and Robert Ce- dar of Centereach. ^ Elected to councilman terms were three Republicans. i nev were David L. Weissberger of Pa t ehogue , C^rence \Touse \ Hough of Coram and George Fuchs of Stony Brook. Defeated were three Democratic councilmen . Harold L. Chapman _ of East Moriches John A. Young of East Patehogue. and Willard E. Keddy of Seiden. Councilman term s are for four years. In Islip Town. Republican Thomas J. Harwood was re-elect- ed supervisor in a hard-fough t contest with his Democratic con- tender , Vincent J. Hand. The GOP there swept all the battles for seven offices. But things hadn 't been quite so bright for Renubhcan con- tenders in the Patehogue Village election of March 9\ The GOP couldn 't ouite break into the 10-year Patehogue Village Demo- cratic stronghold , althou gh thev did dent it a littl e bv coming considerably closer to election than thev did the previous year. All the Democratic candidates were elected to office. The three elected to trustee posts were incumbents Charles H. Miller and Dominick G. Maletta . and political newcomer Erwm D. Schnei- der. Arthur M. Mapes got the voters ' nod for polieo iustice. The GOP trustee candidates were Franc i s L. Marran , Edward (Effv) Yost and Edward Baker. Henry Russell Haase was the police iustice candidate. A sudden ripple of political interest developed when Arthur McComb. a Democrat , resigned as Brookhaven Town clerk effective March 31. , , ,,,, ,. , Earlier , the town board had decided that the clerk shou 'dn t get the approximate SR5.500 in annual fees as reg * «trar of bu-th and death records. Thev set a straigh t salary of $100 a year. Mr. Mr-Comb said he had to resign because of economic ne- cp<*«itv . Fi *^ **alarv as town cl erk was $9 000 a year plus the registra r fees. He said he counted on the fees when he ran for election , and that loss of the fees meant that he couldn 't afford to employ a man to run his hardware store in Lake Ronkonkoma. He said he had to resign to run the store himself. Robert A. Coonev of Patehogue v%as named to the clerk post. Taking all events into consideration , the one that affected this newspaper the mo- *t was its consolidation May 4—when The Pat- ehogue Advance merged with The Moriches Tribune to produce The Long Island Advance. The consolidation has given The Ad- vance a 10 , 000-pius circulation. Modern Etiquette By Roberta Lee Q.
