With Labor Day comes the dose <strong>of</strong><br />

thu <strong>1970</strong> summer season in <strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong><br />

and the deparum 1 <strong>of</strong> the legion <strong>of</strong><br />

vacationers and short-tJ-rm visitors who<br />

have made our lives st> much riinri><br />

okeiting <strong>of</strong> the p«st 13 weeks<br />

There is the inclination to refer to<br />

Labor Day us the traditional 'Mid <strong>of</strong> the<br />

summer season ut th* 1 shore This is a<br />

misnomer, since thr rlimatological<br />

summer season extends into Indian<br />

Summer which lasts through October<br />

Labor Day as .the climax <strong>of</strong> the season<br />

is more a mutter <strong>of</strong> expediency that <strong>of</strong><br />

tradition. It is n certainty that were it<br />

not f<strong>of</strong> the fact that the schools in the<br />

Philadelphia metropolitan area, from<br />

whence comes most <strong>of</strong> our summer<br />

guests, open nest week, vacation<br />

activities in <strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> would continue<br />

through the golrlen Hay "f <strong>Sep</strong>tember<br />

and October<br />

However, while the bf^adwmnpr may<br />

be willing to spend the summer<br />

commutinH brtwu'n his soashun 1 lifimi 1<br />

here, owned or lewd, and his work in<br />

Philadelphia, it is not very feasible for<br />

the children to make the daily jaunt<br />

hack ami fortli A good number <strong>of</strong> these<br />

slimmer residents have found it possible,<br />

and pleasant, to return to the shore cm<br />

weekends, elearup into November,<br />

So, I4il)or Day rings down thi 1 curtain<br />

on the shore season, just,as surely by<br />

expediency as by tradition It has been a<br />

good summer, a conclusion reached by<br />

natives based on the number <strong>of</strong> visitors<br />

and their deportment and considerations<br />

A matter <strong>of</strong> public relations<br />

Several letter* in today's Fonim<br />

column on this page is disturbing to<br />

anyone who likes to cherish the idea that<br />

<strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> is, indeed, America's finest<br />

family resort<br />

<strong>On</strong>e letter tells <strong>of</strong> a mother and her<br />

small son who could not find<br />

aceomodations for an overnight visit to<br />

the shore. It seems that motel operators,<br />

according to the letter, require at least a<br />

two-ntght minimum stay.<br />

The other letter tells <strong>of</strong> a woman with<br />

her family and friends who were denied<br />

access to a boardwalk paviilion to rest<br />

following a shopping visit on the<br />

boardwalk. It seems the paviilion was<br />

closed by police because <strong>of</strong> some<br />

unpleasantness earlier with a p-oup <strong>of</strong><br />

young people.<br />

<strong>On</strong>e letter writer said she has<br />

scratched <strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> from her list <strong>of</strong><br />

places to visit. The other complains <strong>of</strong> a<br />

"police state" on the boardwalk, a<br />

condition which encourages visitors to<br />

look elsewhere for their seashore<br />

pleasures.<br />

It is not wise to minimize these<br />

individual eases If they are isolated<br />

eases, all right. But how many similar<br />

unpleasantries and inconveniences occur<br />

to visitors through the course <strong>of</strong> the<br />

summer 1 '<br />

Good public relations is a necessity in<br />

a resort like <strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong>, It should be<br />

practiced by public agencies and private<br />

enterprise alike. An accumulation <strong>of</strong><br />

isolated situations could snowball and<br />

ruin the reputation which <strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong><br />

has so laborously built and preserved<br />

over the fast three quarters <strong>of</strong> a<br />

century.<br />

Wi should ft!! resolve to be on our best<br />

behavior when these strangers come<br />

knocking at our door. And we should<br />

treat them more with compassion as<br />

humans than as just stock in trade.<br />

Indifference to even the slightest wishes<br />

<strong>of</strong> our visitors is a blemish on the<br />

reputation <strong>of</strong> the resort. Not only is it<br />

not good business, it is downright rude.<br />

Let's extend our social good<br />

neigh borliness into our business<br />

activities. Let's be p-acious hosts.<br />

Trawlers raid our fish supply<br />

<strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> surf and small boat<br />

fishermen have, been enjoying a good run<br />

<strong>of</strong> fiih, mostly weakflsh and some blues,<br />

<strong>of</strong>f th§ beach in the area from 11th st, to<br />

14th st.<br />

The anglers were shocked and, in<br />

some cases, outraged early Tuesday<br />

momlng when a fleet <strong>of</strong> commercial<br />

draggers came in to the breakwater and<br />

spread their nets. The haul by the<br />

commercial fishermen ruined the sport,<br />

in that area for the rest <strong>of</strong> the week,<br />

pOMibly longer,<br />

Veteran fishermen say that the<br />

westerly winds that have prevailed<br />

during the early part <strong>of</strong> this- week<br />

brought the schools <strong>of</strong> fish closer in on<br />

the beach. The draggers, which normally<br />

work a mile or more at sea, followed the<br />

fish in.<br />

The situation is frustrating to the<br />

individual anglers, who contend that<br />

sport fiihing is one <strong>of</strong> the major<br />

attractions in a seaside resort like <strong>Ocean</strong><br />

<strong>City</strong>, The draggers were in their legal<br />

rights, which permit them to pursue<br />

schools <strong>of</strong> fish "up to the wash" on the<br />

beach.<br />

The sports fishermen for years have<br />

been contesting the rights <strong>of</strong> commercial<br />

fishing boats to raid the favorite angling<br />

spots <strong>of</strong> the sportsmen. They have<br />

learned that the commercial fishermen<br />

have a powerful lobby in Trenton, and,<br />

consequently, have pretty much their<br />

own way in chasing their day's catch.<br />

However, such antics will ruin the<br />

sport <strong>of</strong> fishing in <strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong>, and local<br />

and county authorities should lend the<br />

weight <strong>of</strong> their <strong>of</strong>fices to the plea <strong>of</strong> tire<br />

sports fishermen who want to preserve<br />

<strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> and the Southern New Jersey<br />

beachfront as good fishing grounds.<br />

Editor. Sentinel Ledger<br />

This Ls in responsp to Mrs.<br />

frank Bolush. <strong>of</strong> Philadelphia,<br />

who remarks that a change to<br />

modern mume might incrp&M*<br />

the popularity <strong>of</strong> the concert"-<br />

It might please a few people,<br />

but as a regular attendant tn<br />

ihesp musicals, I can't possibly<br />

see how anything can incn asp<br />

their popularity: The<br />

auditiinum is packed in<br />

capacity every night with fiilk<br />

waiting fur the doors to open<br />

The excellent choice <strong>of</strong><br />

soloists and divers: fieri<br />

orchestral selections, as<br />

arranged by Mr Clarence<br />

Fuhrman. are the finpst in be<br />

obtained nywhere.<br />

I wonder how many people<br />

realize how very- fortunate we<br />

are in <strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> to be<br />

privileged to have these<br />

musical,- absolutely free. No<br />

other seashore resort, to my<br />

knowledge, can claim this<br />

distinction. Huw ciimmendable<br />

it wcjuld be if more <strong>of</strong> our<br />

music lovers would express a<br />

word <strong>of</strong> grateful appreciation<br />

to our mayor i.nd city <strong>of</strong>ficials.<br />

I also beliew it adds to the<br />

economy <strong>of</strong> our city to have<br />

something lovely to attract<br />

Ihem to the boardwalk. Many<br />

<strong>of</strong> these people would stay at<br />

home because the sights on the<br />

boards are not exactly pleasing<br />

lo the eye,<br />

1 have heard no rumors<br />

concerning "doing away with<br />

the music" and certainly hope<br />

such are not true,<br />

Mrs. William Kealey<br />

<strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong><br />

Editor, Sentinel Ledger: The<br />

SentinelLed|ier reports that a<br />

Rutgers University scientist has<br />

discovered that i» is<br />

"unrealistic" to harbor the<br />

notion that drinking and<br />

driving don't mix. All that's<br />

needed is an Alco-Cttlculator<br />

which informs the 190-pound<br />

boozer with lour martinis<br />

under his belt belt that he,<br />

rather than his 120-pound<br />

clear-eyed mate with only<br />

three under her girdle, should<br />

do the dnvmj!. Now, everyone<br />

knim> that martinis are more<br />

Ami'tican than apple pie hut<br />

what happens when the<br />

drunk I mean drinker, so<br />

has a craving for Imperial Hotel<br />

Fl?7.es or some equally<br />

heavenly concoction' An<br />

important and realistic<br />

question<br />

<strong>On</strong> the same day that article<br />

appeared I heard that the son<br />

<strong>of</strong> a friend o! mine Was Wailing<br />

in his car for i red light to<br />

Change at an intersection when<br />

a drunk plowed most<br />

realistically mtn his rear,<br />

ruining his car but, fortunately,<br />

not seriously injurine my<br />

friend's son I'm sure the drunk<br />

did not refer [o his<br />

Ale u'Calculator (price<br />

$1 95 plus tajt 11 ) because I<br />

presume they are not yet<br />

available throughout the<br />

nation. This acciden! occurred<br />

outside the state <strong>of</strong> New<br />

Jersey However, I do wonder,<br />

had he had his trusty calculator<br />

in pocket, if he would have<br />

been able to do the calculating.<br />

1 understand that alcohol, no<br />

matter what the amount<br />

consumed, has a tendency to<br />

deaden the reflexes inelujing<br />

his calculating ability and, only<br />

incidentally, his driving<br />

alertness: But I suppose that's<br />

old hat<br />

For some reason that Alco<br />

story reminds me that all<br />

aeeidenUi! fireiirm killings are<br />

caused by revolvers that aren't<br />

loaded. Wonder how many<br />

accidents are caused by<br />

drinkers who aren't drunk?<br />

OCEAN CITIZEN<br />

Dear O,C ; Even as a little<br />

More important, you loved and<br />

catered to your r imllies that<br />

Mint back yeargftt-r year.<br />

COURTESY TAGS:<br />

Proposals before the<br />

Legislature to increase prices<br />

for special low numbered auto<br />

licenses would Increase State<br />

revenues considerably.<br />

A pending Assembly bill in<br />

the Legislature would permit<br />

the Director <strong>of</strong> Motor Vehicles<br />

to increase the fees for special<br />

motor vehicle registration<br />

plates and renewals. The<br />

permitted fee for new issuances<br />

would be increased from $10<br />

to SZB, The bill also requires<br />

an annual renewal fee <strong>of</strong> $10,<br />

The Division <strong>of</strong> Motor<br />

Vehicles estimates that if the<br />

increased new isiugnce fee is<br />

instituted, a net revenue to the<br />

State <strong>of</strong> $160,000 would<br />

result. Thn proposed renewal<br />

fee would produce net<br />

revenues to this State <strong>of</strong><br />

1840,000,<br />

Thereafter, the division<br />

projects o 5 percent annual<br />

increase In revenuei from both<br />

sources for a total net revenue<br />

<strong>of</strong> ,11,032,000 in fiscal<br />

1971-72 and (1,076,100 in<br />

fiscal year 1972-73.<br />

The Mtlmatei are made un<br />

the auumption that all<br />

regiltranu will continue<br />

utilizing courtesy plates.<br />

However, the division feels that<br />

actual experience may dlfido' o<br />

that 80 percent to 76 percent<br />

will not accept an annual fee.<br />

RUBELLA: • Countywide<br />

cl.nics to inoculate children<br />

against rubella, or German<br />

measles, will resume this<br />

month with initial programs<br />

Kheduled in Burlington and<br />

Essex counties. Later the<br />

programs will be carried out in<br />

other counties at no cost to<br />

patients or parent*.<br />

Technicians <strong>of</strong> tho State<br />

Department <strong>of</strong> Health will<br />

continue to give the<br />

inoculations and will use<br />

hypo spray instead <strong>of</strong> needles.<br />

Approximately 78,000<br />

children were vaccinated<br />

against rubella at clinics held in<br />

the first ilx months <strong>of</strong> this<br />

year. Then the programs were<br />

held in Camden, Cape May,<br />

Cumberland, Gloucester,<br />

Hunterdon, Middlesex, <strong>Ocean</strong>,<br />

Mrs. David McOaffir<br />

Harleysville, Pa<br />

Editor, Sentinel-Ledger I<br />

have been taught that when the<br />

rights <strong>of</strong> the majority are<br />

abused by the minority, the<br />

rights <strong>of</strong> the innocent majority<br />

are restricted.<br />

The question now being<br />

asked is how do we protect the<br />

rights <strong>of</strong> the majority and still<br />

insure the rights <strong>of</strong> the)<br />

minority.<br />

For example: on Tuesday,<br />

August 26, four policemen<br />

removed, not forcibly, a group<br />

<strong>of</strong> young people who were<br />

singing from the 11th st.<br />

paviilion.<br />

Later in the evening, with<br />

my family, we went to the<br />

pavillion to rest aft«r making<br />

several purchases at boardwalk<br />

stores. We were refused<br />

entrance by a policeman who<br />

said there had bten a<br />

"disturb.jnee" earlier and the<br />

pavillion was not to bi) used.<br />

I am sure the police force<br />

thought it was doing its job in<br />

preventing another<br />

"disturbance", if you consider<br />

people singing a disturbance,<br />

but if <strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> residents<br />

continue to permit such<br />

repressive actioni the South<br />

Jersey Shore will soon be a<br />

police state, Connie Bradley (17)<br />

Havertown, pa!<br />

Editor, Sentinel-Ledger: I<br />

have been a summer regldent <strong>of</strong><br />

<strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> for the past 15<br />

years. These have been very<br />

pleasant and relaxing<br />

vacations . , . until last night<br />

(August 25),<br />

Accompanied by my<br />

mother, my children and an<br />

out<strong>of</strong>state guest, I suggested<br />

we relax at a pavillion on the<br />

boardwalk since wo had made<br />

many purchases in the shops!<br />

We were denied entrance by a<br />

policeman and forbidden to sit<br />

down.<br />

When I questioned him, he<br />

explained that "there had been<br />

a disturbance earlier in the<br />

evening". If he allowed us to<br />

enter, he would have to let<br />

"them" sit down too, "Them"<br />

happened to be three young<br />

people quietly sitting on tht<br />

boardwalk Watching the ocean,<br />

"Them " had long hair, •<br />

Jult how big a disturbance<br />

would "them" have made if<br />

they wore allowed to remain<br />

on the 'walk? By declaring th*<br />

not salving the "riot problem",'<br />

Public Safety Director Chester J Wimherg, who thanked<br />

Feroe, Simpson and Sharp iind all the men on the Police<br />

Department, Fire Department and Beach Patrol, With<br />

the commissioners still grinning like school boys who<br />

just cheated on a test, the camera panned to the<br />

how-tied Feroe, who said he would be back in a minute<br />

to add a few thank you's <strong>of</strong> his own, An announcer then<br />

read <strong>of</strong>f a list <strong>of</strong> 10 sponsors who, in addition to the<br />

<strong>City</strong>, financed the programs. Feroe reappeared to recite<br />

his list <strong>of</strong> thank you's. "I have tried to stay away from<br />

controversy," the director <strong>of</strong> Feme Enterprises said,<br />

"Our job was just to cover the special events <strong>of</strong> the<br />

city." Feroe then thanked Sharp and the Commissioners<br />

and former Commissioner R, Robinson Chance, Jr., who<br />

as Feroe said "took a chance with a young kid from<br />

Wilmington, Del., and Haverford College," Modestly<br />

Feroe added, "And 1 think his experiment has paid <strong>of</strong>f<br />

very well." Then to the tune <strong>of</strong> a marching band blaring<br />

out "S<strong>of</strong>tly, As 1 Leave You", a list <strong>of</strong> credits and more<br />

thank you's appeared on tht screen. The list read like<br />

"Who's Who" in <strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong>. Anyone who wasn't<br />

mentioned just wasn't anybody. We really don't know if<br />

anyone will pick up where Feroe left <strong>of</strong>f with <strong>Ocean</strong><br />

<strong>City</strong> television. All we know is that Ban Feroe will not<br />

be saying "<strong>On</strong>ce Again We Bring You" at the beginning<br />

<strong>of</strong> each show.<br />

MORE ON THE ELECTION - With the city<br />

commission still eight months away the field <strong>of</strong> possible<br />

and probable? candidates is continuing to grow. Several<br />

weeks ago we mentioned that incumbent commissioners<br />

Simpson and Sharp would more than likely be<br />

candidates for re-election. We also commented that<br />

former Mayor B. ThomaJ Waldman was another likely<br />

candidate. Former Commissioners D. Allen Streteh and<br />

Roy Gillian have also been mentioned as candidates.<br />

The list is longer now. Now we hew that fireman John<br />

Esposito, Chief <strong>of</strong> County Detectives George<br />

Dougherty, former parking authority head Joel Mott<br />

and Republican State Committeeman Fred Blank are<br />

interested in a chair at <strong>City</strong> Hall. Further rumor has it<br />

that shoujd Simpson deeride not te:> run Sharp will team<br />

up with Gillian and his present deputy Mayor, Richard<br />

NEW CAMERA • The editorial staff <strong>of</strong> this newspaper<br />

has a new Polaroid Land camera, model 350. It was<br />

purchased by the management to enable us to get last<br />

minute news pictures when we're working on a deadline,<br />

Polaroid shots can be easily reproduced for use in the<br />

paper. In fact several shots from the new camera have<br />

appeared in print already. The job <strong>of</strong> taking pictures has<br />

fallen upon us mainly because we are low man on the<br />

seniority totum pole. We confess we know little or<br />

nothing about photopaphy. The first Polaroid camera<br />

we got was less sophistocated than the new 350 model.<br />

There was too much room for human error and we<br />

made every one <strong>of</strong> them. Seeing wasted film and<br />

underexposed and overexposed picures piling up around<br />

our desk, the management decided maybe we could use<br />

a little less complicated camera. We apeed, and the new<br />

model does every thing except play the Minute Waltz<br />

while waiting for the picture to develop itself. There's<br />

just no way to make a mistake. If there were we would<br />

have found it by now. We have takerueight pictures with<br />

the new camera and each time exclaimed like the man '<br />

on television, "another perfect picture."<br />

SUPPORT YOUR POLICE . Though this department<br />

will <strong>of</strong>ten crack fun at some <strong>of</strong> the antics surrounding<br />

the local Police Department, we firmly believe they<br />

should have the respect and support <strong>of</strong> all citizens when<br />

they are legitimately trying to do their job. The recent<br />

killing <strong>of</strong> a park guard and injuries inflicted on four<br />

police <strong>of</strong>ficers in Philadelphia are regretable incidents.<br />

Police <strong>of</strong>ficers everywhere put their own lives on the<br />

line everyday when they walk into an apparently<br />

deserted house or stop a motorist on the highway. Who<br />

knows? A killer could be hiding in the house or a bank<br />

robber could be behind the wheel <strong>of</strong> the ear, '<br />

Philadelphia Police Commissioner Frank Rigzo isn't<br />

about to,stand by idly while his men are gunned down <<br />

in the streets, Rizzo says his men will fight if the pe<br />

doing this killing want to fight. We believt<br />

Commissioner will keep his word. <strong>On</strong>e thing is cert*.<br />

Rizzo will do whatever he must to see that his men art<br />

protected and not shot down in the streets .like<br />

animals,<br />

A PROPER BALANCE - Much has been madet<strong>of</strong><br />

police brutality jnd excessive force used by lawmen.<br />

"False arrest" is fast becoming as much <strong>of</strong> a household<br />

term as Spiro Agnew. AH too <strong>of</strong>ten the rights <strong>of</strong> police<br />

<strong>of</strong>ficers are sacrificed for the rights <strong>of</strong> those committtnf<br />

the crimes. A cop loses his life and everyone says whut a<br />

terrible thing it is, The polioe shoot up two or three<br />

people guarding an arsonal <strong>of</strong> weapons and all <strong>of</strong> a<br />

sudden its murder and cause-seeking attorneys flock to<br />

the aid <strong>of</strong> the victims, A proper application <strong>of</strong> the terms<br />

"right" and "wrong" would go a long toward solving<br />

this problem.<br />
