PAGE 2—SECTION TWO THURSDAY. APRIL 28. 1977
A dangerous setting
Something is a miss somewhere
when a developer is permitted to build
homes in an area that is directly under
the approach to the runway of a small
but busy airport. .
Yet that is exactly what seems to be
happening here in Ocean City, as
Stoeco Homes, Inc., starts construction
along the finger lagoons
adjacent to South Harbor in the
Riviera section. The section is in part
directly under the approach to the
north-south runway of the municipal
airport.
Fiye or six years ago environmentalists
successfully fought
court battles to save a few clams and
oysters in the same area. Their tactics
completely stopped work by Stoecco,
and the lack of bulkheading along
Tennessee av. caused cave-ins and
posed a threat to human safety.
Where are the environmentalists
today now that the homes are going up
in such close proximity to the runway?
Where are they now that there is a
possible danger to human lives and not
just a few clams and oysters?
When that section of Jhe Riviera was
planned more than a decade ago, City
Engineer Joseph F. Hyland was the
private engineer for the developer as
well. Hyland said recently he planned
a park for that section because of its
closeness to the runway.
Over the years that idea was
abandoned apparently as a scarcity of
buildable land developed and the value
of existing land increased. And now it
appears the new homes will go up in
spite of proven problems and complaints
from homeowners farther
away across South Harbor about low
flying aircraft.
Hyland has said he will contact the
Federal Aviation Administration for a
ruling in the matter. That is a wise
solution since Stoecco's approval to
build . from the city includes a
stipulation that construction not take
place within an area deemed
dangerous by the FAA.
Much needed relief
At first glance a plan by the city to
install offices in the former Coastal
State Bank building at 9th st. and
Asbury av. across from the City Hall,
seems both an economical and convenient
move for taxpayers of the city.
The City has agreed tot,, pay the
Ocean City Parking Authority, which
purchased the building and adjacent
parking area from the bank recently,
$5,000 a year for use of the building.
Both parties have agreed to enter into
a ten year lease with a ten year
renewable clause.
The annual rent will be paid as a
$5,000 a year credit on interest and
loans the Parking Authority owes the
city, which amount at the present time
is between $18,000 and $19,000 a year.
The City's only out of pocket expenses
will be for utilities.- - :r. . .•,~ ?
Plans announced this week call for
the City Clerk's^ofnc^, how Ideated on
the -second floor of city hall, to be
moved into the soon to be renovated
building. The work will be done by city
workers.
We endorse the idea of moving the
City Clerk's office from its present
cramped quarters at City Hall. With so
many older citizens in Ocean City,
Much ado . ..
The latest earthshaking event to
rock City Hall is a controversy over
when an awning is a sign and when a
sign is an awning.
The City and its five-year-old sign
ordinance probably wouldn't be in the
middle of this feud between two neighboring
but not neighborly realtors,
were it not for some definition
problems within the ordinance.
When the ordinance was adopted in
1971 the expressed concern was to
regulate the number and size of lighted
and unlighted signs in order to
preserve a basically non-commercial
tone in the community. No one thought
that someday awnings could be boldly
lettered to serve as signs.
City officials now appear to be
leaning toward amending the ordinance
somehow to settle the controversy
with compromise. We think
they would be wiser to let the ordinance
stand as written and stay out
of the controversy altogether. In other
words if a merchant wants to use his
awning as a sign let him do so.
With tongue in cheek
climbing the front steps of the
municipal building many times poses
a problem. The new Clerk's office will
not only be more convenient for taxpayers,
but will be more convenient
for City workers assigned there and
for the storage of city records. Plans
call for the office to be connected to
other key City offices by a "hot line"
telephone, which should. save city
workers and taxpayers unneeded
visits to other departments.
The new facility will also house the
Mayor's office for Information and
Direct Action. Taxpayers will be
encouraged to walk in with their
problems and speak to the Mayor's
coordinator or the Mayor himself. The
Mayor's office is currently on the third
floor of City Hall.
v; An added benefit of the.new building
is the space it will leave available for
"council offices "on the second floor of
City Hall when the government change
becomes a reality next year.
The new facility at 9th and Asbury is
an economical and realistic approach
to solving the City's office space and
public convenience problems, that the
public should applaud.
Official concern that this would lead
to a carnival-like atmosphere is unwarranted.
Normally people,
especially conservative Ocean City
business people, make improvements
to their properties that add, not
detract.
There are a number of new "awningsigns"
throughout the City and all are
attractive and in good taste. They look
far better and many of the older and
discolored awnings that, believe it or
not, have had commercial lettering on
them for many years.
We suggest the Commissioners let
the two Bay av. realtors settle their
own problems. If the other realtor
wants a "sign-awning" to keep up with
his neighbor let him have it. In fact,
there is no reason why he should need
a permit to hang an awning providing
it doesn't violate zoning laws.
Sometimes there is more truth in the
adage that "the government that
governs best, governs least." This is
one of these times.
'Ocean City airport? Sure!
Down the end of the street!'
Comment on the contemporary
It could never happen;
oil company fairy tale
Now for a page out of the oil
companies' fairy tale hook
called "It could never hapMri,";
Anyone who has attendea any
of the many hearings staged
during the past few years to
reassure Jersey natives that
their beaches won't be harmed
once the oil rigs appear off the
Atlantic coast is used to hearing
the droll and endless commentaries
on the safeguards
now in use to protect aginst
"blowouts" on offshore oil
platforms. - . . ;
, Even U a spill were to occur,:
the experts say, it is doubtful
that the oil from a rig some 75
miles offshore would reach the
coast.
Now for the reality - a line
from a Sunday wire story:
"Stavanger, Norway - Officials

4,000-ton-a-day spill from

Editor, Sentinel-Ledger;
Everyone who attended the
recent high school production of
"Anything Goes," enjoyed an
evening of fun, laughter and
delightful entertainment.
Cole Porter and P.G.
Wodehouse would have heartily
approved of the direction and
staging.
The talented cast performed
with a contagious enthusiasm
which quickly captured the
hearts of the audience and
engulfed them in the spirit of
the night.
The community should be
justly proud of this fine accomplishment
by our young
people and share with them in
their triumph.

Won't you come home, Kay Bowen?
The heavy-handed quality of
the social page news this week

Soda! news is a special facet
of the news, an art that has its
own language and
metaphorical clienes. This
difficult rapartorial ttchrique
is made more dUflcult by the
fact that Ocean City in the offb
tne moat social-
orientated community in
Southern New Jersey.
It takes a feminine mind to.
assess the female psyche accurately
enough 1p ascertain
what it is that women readers
like to read, and turning
political hacks and ambulance
chasers loose on the social page
is the ultimate exemplification
of that old dodge about bulls in
the china closet.
We don't know how many
women's dubs,, chapters,
circles and other similar
organizational idenUtlea there

sorority instincts of the distaff

"two is company, thief is a

reason enough to organize

We here in the newsroom the
next several weeks fully anticipate
a Thursday
pilgrimage to the S-L editorial
diggings by irate ladies
demanding to know how three
machos could so thoroughly
foul up such an understandable
speaker's topic as the correct
application of cosmetics on the.

When Catherine annually

just can't be certain whether
alencon will describe the
decided by Mr. Joseph Harris,
operator of a minuture golf
course.
Mr. Harris is "dog-in-themanger
ing" the Com-i
missioners and possibly-the
Court by saying "if I can't have
my little golf course open on
Sunday then neither shall the
City."
Speaking as president of the
American Association of
Retired Persons, and for all the
taxpayers in Ocean City, it
seems to me Mr. Harris in
suing the City over this matter
is not only regardlessly selfish,
but also very ambiguous in his
contention:
First: He does not care in his
selfishness that the fees
collected for tennis and golf,
and they run into the thousands
of dollars, help cut the tax-bite
on every taxpayer in Ocean
City in the maintalnance of
these sports, and they are
costly sports. Mr. Harris is a
resident of Wildwood.
Second: Mr. Harris am-

oilfield said Saturday a single
spark' could' Ignite the North
Sea platform rig Into « torchlight'."
Unlike theGulf of Mexico, the
North Atlantic presents
unusual problems for oil
companies because of rough
seas and unpredictable
currents. :
Thus, drilling off New Jersey's
coast could be compared
to drilling in the North Sea.
Only, in this case, the rig that
exploded is 175 miles off Norway's
coast instead of the 75
miles expected for Jersey
coastline rigs.
Despite the extra distance,
the blowout has sent an 18square-mile
slick drifting
toward the coast and experts
expect it will hit the sandy
shores in about a week.
Oil company spokesmen scoff
at people who say current oil
containment and cleanup
procedures would be rendered
useless in the turbulent North
Atlantic waters.
Yet the wire story about the
North Sea blowout pointed out
that "high seas and strong
winds prevented early attempts
to control the spill."
Safety procedures and
special backup equipment
along with specially designed
cutoff valves will prevent any
blowout in North Atlantic
drilling, company spokesmen
always point out to the
"ignorant" observers at
hearings.
Yet American Phillips
Petroleum Company
spokesmen said of Saturday's
blowout that all accepted
safety procedures were being
followed at the time of the incident.
Efforts are currently underway
to plug the hole which is
capable of spewing 20,000 to
25,000 barrels of oil into the
North Sea every day.
This maneuver could take
several days and may even be
impossible.
If the hole can't be plugged,
the oil company will have to
drill a relief well, a job that ,
could take several months,
according to Norwegian State
Pollution Control Board official.
While the beaches in the
vicinity of the blowout are
already in peril, Norwegian
fishermen are already contemplating
the real possibility
that the spill could destroy
priceless fishing grounds.
Where now are all the wellsuntanned
"experts" who have
been trying to reassure Jerseyans
that there is nothing to
fear from 4*h>nttc drilling?
Contemplating a new
strategy perhaps?
Ocean City a la carte
Beware! The
is coming
A few weeks ago we admitted straight out to the
readers of this newspaper that we had become a
"Boggle" addict.
Our readers should remember the column we
devoted to that new Parker Brothers word game that
literally boggles the mind. We were introduced to
Boggle about a month ago and have been playing it
ever since.
Boggle is played with two or more people who,
after the individual letter cubes are tossed at random,
must form as many words of three letters or
more using the contiguous cubes to spell those words.
The whole thing is regulated by a four minute timer.
We started sitting up 'til all hours of the morning
playing Boggle and even had our friends doing the
same. We noticed among our friends, who also
became hooked, that many were neglecting their
children, letting.their homes go to pot and beating
(heir wives for interrupting with this new pasttime.
We were so concerned about our addictive condition
that we wrote Parker Brothers a letter and
asked them what to do. We received a letter back
from The Rowland Company of New York, who
handles public relations for Boggle.
Planned addiction
We didn't get much encouraging news from this
reply: "We sympathize with your addiction but can
only forewarn you that the entire New York
metropolitan area is about to succumb. During the
month of May we are undertaking a month-long
"Boggle Blitz."
According to Rowland spokesperson Carol City, an
intensive advertising campaign, which includes such
slogans as "Hello Boggle, Goodbye love," and "Ahh,
Sunday! Lox and Boggle!", will be plastered all over
the metropolitan area.
Ms. City warns us never to rid ourself of "this
wonderful addiction," and Says all of this has happened
because they discovered that "triers" have
become Boggle addicts. We can surely vouch for that.
Boggled letter
Speaking of Boggle, we have obtained a copy of a
letter from Cape May CktatyPro&fcutdr Donald R.
Charles, Jr., to City Solicitor Michael Connor that
truly boggles the mind.
The subject of the letter is access to all of the Ocean
City municipal records now in the possession of the
Prosecutor's office. Charles and his staff have had
most of the City's records for more than a month
while they conduct an investigation into subjects they
refuse to talk about.
This newspaper has pointed out editorially and in
news stories that the investigation is costing the City
of Ocean City time and money because City employees
don't have access to the records and the lack
of these records is making it impossible to receive
reimbursement for welfare payments and for a grant
of more than $30,000 to cover storm damage from
Hurricane Belle last summer.
Apparently feeling the heat, Charles decided to
dash off the letter to Connor, portions of which are
reprinted here:
"As we discussed the inquiries from the public
should be made to the municipal official who would
normally have custody of the particular records
sought. That official should then advise you of the
request. You in turn, if appropriate, will then contact
me so that we can discuss these inquiries on a caseby-case
basis."
That mind-boggling paragraph was followed by
this one:
"To date, I have not received any requests from
either you or any municipal official regarding the
availability of any municipal records now at the
Prosecutor's office. However, I suggest that any
inquiries from municipal officials be made, through
you to this office. We can then discuss these inquiries
on a case-by-case basis the same as with requests
from the public. Through this cooperative procedure
we should be able to minimize any adverse affect on
the functioning of the municipal government
resulting from the current investigation."
If Charles' recommendations are followed we can
envision the need for a whole bureaucratic staff to
handle the procedure and the result of that could be
even more boggling.
We suggest Charles get on the stick with his investigation,
unearth all the wrong-doing, if there is
any, tell City officials what they can do to stop it from
happening again or haul them off to jail if It seems
appropriate.
Holland's tunnel
We have still one more suggestion that might expedite
return of the records. The prosecutor's office
must be finished with some of the material, so each
day when they finish with a box or two of records they
could put them in the trunk of County Detective John
Holland's car and he could carry them with him when
he comes home each night.
That way the City would get its records back a lot
quicker, Holland would be doing a good deed, and the
City wouldn "l have to pay the $184 mover's fee to have
the records transported from Court House back to
Ocean City that should have been paid by the County
when the records were first taken away.

Childhood play. It isn't always this easy. Later on, we want to
bridge the gap that separates us from something or someone else. But
often we don't have the nerve.
Sometimes we want to speak . . . and can't find our voices.
Sometimes we honestly want to go to church... but it's beenso long.
In anything, the hardest part is the first step. One foot, then another
