fishing has improved somewhat
with weakfish, blues, snappers
and sea bass being caught.
Offshore there are blues

blues to show up in larger

Weakfish action has been
spotty with some boats filling
the big boxes while others work
all day for three or six fish. The
fishermen having the best luck
have been using top and bottom
rip with weakfish pearls, plain
nooks or the weakfish flasher
rig with strips of squid for bait.

second loop game this week
lince this ii their first season in
the league, St. Joseph was part
of the -GAL on a limited basis
last season (see Sporta Comer)
but thi WildcaU are eligible for
the crown this year.
Coach Chuck Donahue, In his
first season as head coach, saw
the Wildcats handle Wlldwood
with relative ease last Saturday
en route to a ffl-B victory. Senior
fullback Anthony DeMnreo, a
...concentrating
Wildcats
on
starter last year, scored all
three of the St. Joseph touch,
downs last weekend. DeMaroo,
who gained 88 yards in 17
carries, went over from seven
yards out in the first period, two
yards out in the second quarter
and three yards out in the third
period. St. Joseph had 20 first
downs in the game, ]« of them
on the ground.
The Wildcats have a strong
offensive line, u shown by their
good showing of their running

Wildcats are newest CAL entry
The Cape-Atlantic League
started back in 1949 ai a six
team eonferaice of schooli
from Cape May and Atlantic
Counties, Over the yeari the
scholastic sports forum has
developed into a nine-team
group featuring Jchools from
the two original counties plus
Cumberland County, In fact, it
should be rallied the Cum
Cape-Atlantic League to be
more accurate.
Ocean City won the first three
league championihips,
defeating Middle Township,
Cape May, Hammonton and
Egg Harbor High Schools, The
Raiders won again in IMS and
1957.
In 1960 Egg Harbor High
School was closed, lending its
studtnti to the new Oakcrest
Regional, and dropping the
CAL back to five teams. In 1981,
however, two new schools were
admitted. Pleasantville,
previously playing independent
ball, came aboard along with
the brand new Mainland
Regional High School. Cape
May High School was closed
that same year and the new
Lower Capt May Regional took
over its league spot.
Mainland outgrew the league
by Dav
caslonal kingfish being
reported. Most of these fish are
being caught on enrk rigs with
mullet, squid or bloodworm for
bait. Striper fishing in the surf
should pick up any day now so it
is well worth the time to take a
plug such as creek chubs, red
fins, atoms or a Stan Glbbi and
fish for these stripers,
In the back bay most of the

kingfish, sea bass and taug

the past couple of days. The
bait to use in the back bay is
squid, bloodworm or clam.
Until next week, Good

by 1968 and dropped Out, Joining
the new South Jersey Conference
Not until last season
wai a new football school admitted
to the league. The new
Hyena Regional started CAL
play in 1973 and, although St.
Joseph of Hammonton was an
official league member, the
Wildcats couldn't find room on
everyone's football schedule
last year and were therefore
not eligible.
Last Saturday St. Joseph
played its first official ape-
Atlantic League football game.
The Wildcats defeated Wildwood,
22-6, i assume a very
early positiuii atop the CAL.
This Saturday the Joeys will
visit Recreation Center field for
the very fir« time and attempt
to maintain the league lead.
Coach Chuck Donahue, who
lerved as an assistant for three
years before taking over this
season, feels the change in
stature has meant a great deal
to his players, "This will be the
first season that St. Joseph can
win a football championship.
We have had the mythical City
Title between our school and
Hammonton High but this
season we can win a longstanding,
respectable league.
Our boys know that and they
are getting more excited each
day"
The Wildcats have prided
themselves on being the
smallest school in New jersey
that fields a football team. Now
they have the added pride of
competing for their very first
championship.
We will welcome them to the
league Saturday morning Vou
are invited to join us.
We stand corrected. In this
space last Thursday we
casually described the importance
of team finish in a
cross country meet by saying
that even if your team sweeps
the first three positions you
can't conn the victory until
yoiff other two runners cross
the finish line.
If your team wins the first
three positions in a cross
country meet they will
mathematically clinch the
meet. The reason has
something to do with a limit
being placed on the number of
opposing runners you can
misplace It is a little too involved
to explain here.
Take my word for it. When
you win the first mree spots,
you win the meet. Dave Duncan
offered the correct information
and he should know, Dave has
to think about something while
he's running across the country
side!
Speaking of cross country.
Raider coach Jim Harris
missed last Friday's meet due
to the death of his father, Phil
Birnbaum was on hand to
supervise in Harris' absence.
We know that all members of
the Ocean City sports community
will join us in expressing
our profound eympathiM
to Jim.

Mistakes are found
in city assessments
by Chuck Thompson
In the year ending in
December, 1WS, Ocean City
reeeivtd almost S8 million in
property taxes from ownen of
more than 12,000 properties.
Howevtr, the two i^ides
responsible for overseeing the
proper assessment of these
propertiei art raluFtant or
unable to pinpoint reewUy
discovered inequjtjet in the
property tax syitem in Oaan
City,
In 1972 a revaluation for all of
Ocean City was performed by
D. Allen Stretch Jr., • local
realtor, in an effort to bring
current th» records of the
Ocean City Tax Assessor's
Office,
However, according to
Lawrence T. Benrdelli,
secretary to the Cape May
County Board of Taxation,
"because of errori" discovered
during the course of "bearings
last year," the Ocean City Tax
A.s.ses»or was "ordered" to
review "the entire land valia
set-up as it was done for
revaluation,"
This revaluation prompted a
local resident to register a
complaint with the Tax
Assessor*! office with a copy of
his letter sent to the Sentinel
John P. Speidel, whose two
properties have been assessed
an additional $1,195, wai
concerned "not go much in the
new assessment but in the
wastefulness necessitated by
employment of personnel to
research and recompute
figures, make up form letters,
mail out notices, etc."
On Bmach Rd.
•Hiis increase in assessment
was brought about, Speidel
said, "not by any changes in my
property, but rather through
error, carelessness or ineptitude
on ths parts of parties
whom the taxpayers pay to
process such mutters ac
Mirately,"
To investigate Speidel's
charges, Ocean City Tax
Assessor Charles Chappatte
was contacted A question to
Oiappatte concerning who did
the original revaluation that is
now subject to such an extensive
review elicited the
response, "you're treading on
very dangeroui ground here."
When called back to check
out further the details of a form
letter which is being sent to
Ocean City property owners
whose assessments were found
to be incorrect, Chappatte's
secretary laid that he had "]u«t
this minute stepped out" and
would probably be gone all
afternoon. However, a personal
visit to Chappatte'g office found
that he was in after all.
One of the letters going out of
Chappatte's office reads, "The
Cape May County Board of
Taxation under which this
office operates has ordered a
re calculation of all land
values, not changing the per
front foot value, but to check
the mathematical com
putations "
When asked how many
mistakes this "re-calculation,"
which has being going on "since
February," has uncovered,
Chappatte responded with "oh,
a minimal number." He was

Zone board tables
beach building plea
An attempt to gat a variance
to allow the building of two
single family homes on the
beach was postponed at
Tuesday night's meeting of the
zoning board.
Mr, and Mrs. Alfred H.
Williams were represented by
their attorney, John Daniels, in
the attempt Tuesday to get the
necessary approval from the
board to build two single
family, five-bedroom homes on
two lot! at 25 Beach rd.
In order to receive a ruling
tnm the zoning board on a
variance request, a petitioner
mum first be denied a permit
from the building inspector.
Board chairman Fred Tarves
said that the board never
received the requisite denial
from building inspector Walter
Beddow, Daniels, however, told
Tarves that he has had to
petition Beddow for a permit
three times.
Hie first Urns, according to
Daniels, the Williams couple
was turned down because Mr.
Williams had not accompanied
Mrs. Williams and the builder
when they made the application.
The second time they
were asked to present more
plans.
On the third attempt, the
couple was informed that then
city solicitor Jtobert F. Garret
had advised Beddow not to
issue a permit because the
plans extended over the
Atlantic Coastal Beach Zone,
an imaginary line drawn by the
city ordinjnee in 1971 to
prevent building encroachment
and sand dune removal along
the beachfront.
According to Daniels, a letter
from Oarrett informing Beddow
of this decision was the
only written refusal the
Williams pair had received. He
said, however, that prwent city
solicitor Josiah E DuBois had
interpreted Garret's action and
Beddow's refusal as a formal
permit denial,
Tarves responded with a
letter from Beddow stating that
Mr. and Mrs. Williams had
never made a formal permit
application. Since a formal
application followed by an
official permit denial by the
building inspector is a
prerequisite for a hearing on a
variance request, Tarves
continued the hearing until the
Board's November meeting.
On a requett by Danieli, the
board instructed its secretary

South end condo
future in doubt
If residents of the southend
felt that last week's decision by
the planning board to recommend
that the Mark VII
Development Corporation's
proposed 40 unit condominium
be disapproved brought an end
to the project, they were
mistaken.
According to Thomas A.
CucUioUa, m attorney for «fti
builders, there are provisions
under Ordinance 1104, which
calk for a site plan review for
certain types of buildings, that
the builders are legally entitled
to use in an effort to get their
project approved,
Cucinotta made his remarks
following a hearing by the
builders before an official of the
State's Bureau of Marine Lands
Management of the State's
Deoartment of Bivlronmwital
Protection (DBF). This
meeting had been scheduled to
comply with provisions of the
Coastal Areas Facility Review
Act prior to last week's, ruling
by the Planning Board.
"The next jtep, as outlined
under (ordinance 1104),"
Cucinotta said, "the builders
may take their cue before the
Board of Commissioners. If the

Tlie owners of a number of
beachfront lots along E.

"bulkhead line" imposed in
1971 have filed suit against the
city for various damages including
the reclamation of
property taxes paid on the lots.
The suits were brought by
Jiy nugan of B29 St James pL,
th« owner of three beachfront
lot* in taji block 46 G, and
Richard G. Snyder, Mary Nolan

and Rosemary , C. Hermansacier,

Both the Dugan and Snyder-

In the faU of 1971 tbe city
eommisiioneri adopted an
ordinance creating a caastaj
beach »ne where no new
building could take place and in
the event of the destruction of
more than half of a structure
already existing within that
zone it could not be rebuilt. The
"bulkhead line" runs along the

Prior to enactment of th*
ordinance Snyder began
bulldozing away the land dunes
on his property and the city
obtained a resDralning order in
Chancery Division of Superior
Court. That litigation wag
settled when the city agreed to
pay Snyder the fair market
value for the sand duie covered
lots, and in the event the two
tides failed to reach an
agreement over the price the
city would institute eminent

Oty gives Beach Club break
A special meeting of the
Ocean City ajmrnissioneii was
held yesterday to pass a
resolution "ejttending the time
for commencing construction
on the project taiown as Beach
Qub Condominium in the City
of Ocean City."
A resolution approving the
final site plan was adopted by
the commissioners on Octotar
17, 1973, with the provision that
all permits would hr.ve to be
obtained and eonjtruetion
would have had to be started
within one year of th« passage
of the resolution. Unless this
restriction was complied with,
the resolution would have
become null and void.
However, during the interim,
the Qwan City Beach and Bay
preservation Association has
brought suit against the builder
in an attempt to stop the construction
of the project and this
has hampered the builder in his
atempt to comply with the
resolution.
"As a result of negotiations
between the city attorney and
attornies for builders of the
Beach Club Condominium, "
said Mayor B. Thomas
Waldman, "it became apparent
