The Oi-eon <strong>City</strong> Kiwunis f'luh wus<br />
given a first hand report mi the<br />
summertimp activities <strong>of</strong> lhc pnlio 1<br />
Department by Chief Rfnj:imm I.<br />
Dungon last Wednesday<br />
This newspaper >ind others in the iirvn<br />
have tried unsueei'ssfully Tor thf punt<br />
several weeks to get the sunn 1<br />
information concerning the mrreiise m<br />
narcotics arrests hcrp this summer<br />
No attempt has been made by cither<br />
Public Safety Director Wimbt'n; "r<br />
Dungan to m ke sure the taxpayers <strong>of</strong><br />
this city know the true story nhnut the<br />
narcotics problem hero,<br />
Two years ago P«'t C-ipUun D<br />
Norman Young was hauled into n<br />
meeting <strong>of</strong> city Commission by then<br />
Public Safety Director R Robinson<br />
Chance tfi explain why no drug arrests<br />
had been mode that summer Young said<br />
there was ric drug problem in <strong>Ocean</strong><br />
<strong>City</strong>,<br />
According :o Dungnn's report to the<br />
Kiwanians, 27 people were arrested in<br />
1989 for drug possession and use Lip to<br />
Labor Day or during the first eight<br />
months <strong>of</strong> <strong>1970</strong>, 94 juveniles and adults<br />
had been arrested on drug charges.<br />
The men who made these arrests have<br />
vocally criticized Dungan and Young for<br />
keeping the facts from the newspapers<br />
The detectives and uniformed <strong>of</strong>ficers<br />
who worked hard on Lnveitiptiong <strong>of</strong><br />
drug users and pushers deserve<br />
recognition in the press for their efforts.<br />
<strong>City</strong> Hal! should recognize the value<br />
<strong>of</strong> publicizing a hard line approach to<br />
the drag problem. Young people who<br />
make money selling drugs will be less<br />
likely to peddle their wares in a town<br />
that is known for Healing severely with<br />
the drug pushers.<br />
The Police Department's four man<br />
detective division spent the greater part<br />
<strong>of</strong> the summer working on drug cases.<br />
No one is willing to say anymore that a<br />
drug problem does not exist here<br />
In addition to the regular police<br />
<strong>of</strong>ficers a highly capable summer <strong>of</strong>ficer<br />
ww assigned to infiltrate drug parties in<br />
the resort's hippie community. He<br />
passed on to police <strong>of</strong>ficials much<br />
valuable information, other <strong>of</strong>ficers said,<br />
but nothing was done with it.<br />
The Sentinel ledger learned early in<br />
the season <strong>of</strong> the identity <strong>of</strong> the<br />
undercover man and the areas in which<br />
he was working. The secret was well kept<br />
by this paper, but still Chief Dungan did<br />
not think it important enough to brief<br />
the local prpss on <strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong>'s drug<br />
problems.<br />
The value <strong>of</strong> evaluation<br />
A report on city operations prepared<br />
by the State Department <strong>of</strong> Community<br />
Affairs has been turned, over to the city<br />
commissioners for review.<br />
The 89 page report contains tables,<br />
copies <strong>of</strong> ordinances and resolutions, as<br />
well as suggestions on how the city<br />
commissioners can improve operations<br />
<strong>of</strong> the municipal government.<br />
The field work for the survey was<br />
done between April 22 and June 2, A<br />
state investigator talked with department<br />
heads, a few selected employees, and<br />
toured city owned buildings.<br />
Critics <strong>of</strong> the study claim the Sharp<br />
administration waited until a friendly<br />
Republican Administration fook^over in<br />
Trenton before having the study made.<br />
They point out that the present<br />
administration has been in city hall for<br />
three yeari and had ample time before<br />
now to caU for such a study.<br />
The voluminous report appears to be<br />
fairly nonpolitical, but its actual worth<br />
Mems to be questionable. While it calls<br />
for reorganization <strong>of</strong> several<br />
departments, no mention is made <strong>of</strong><br />
saving the taxpayers any money. In fact,<br />
the report urges the hiring <strong>of</strong> additional<br />
help in some areas.<br />
Any report on the efficiency <strong>of</strong><br />
operations <strong>of</strong> the city by a state agency<br />
is simply one bureaucracy telling another<br />
bureaucracy what it is doing wrong. The<br />
city commissioners could just as easily<br />
go to Trenton and do an efficiency study<br />
on the Department <strong>of</strong> Community<br />
Affairs,<br />
What the Sharp Administration will<br />
do with these recommendations in the<br />
six months before election is pure and<br />
simple speculation. Any changes now<br />
could be interpretated by their<br />
opposition as a pandstand election play.<br />
If the three incumbents have real<br />
intentions <strong>of</strong> gaining re-election they<br />
would do well to put aside this elaborate<br />
State report and work out meaningful<br />
measures <strong>of</strong> their own to reduce the<br />
soaring tax rate.<br />
Rollback interest rates<br />
There is growing sentiment in<br />
Gonjp-ess and elsewhere for a rollback <strong>of</strong><br />
the high Interest rates which have<br />
plagued the money market in the last<br />
few years. Following a call for a<br />
federally-imposed maximum rate <strong>of</strong> six<br />
percent by AFL-CIO leader George<br />
Meany, Congressman Wright Patman has<br />
also called for a rollback to the six<br />
percent level in a letter to David<br />
Rockefeller, chairman <strong>of</strong> the Chase<br />
Manhattan Bank in New York, Patman is<br />
chairman <strong>of</strong> the House Banking<br />
Committee,<br />
Patman believes the nation's big banks<br />
are guilty <strong>of</strong> too much pr<strong>of</strong>ittaking and<br />
that recent high interest rates have<br />
depressed the housing market and<br />
increased unemployment, among other<br />
things,<br />
In the opinion <strong>of</strong> a growing number <strong>of</strong><br />
legislators and concerned citizens,<br />
government action would be justified to<br />
bring interest rates down to a more<br />
reasonable level in the field <strong>of</strong> home<br />
financing. Interest rates as high as eight<br />
percent force the average citizen to pay<br />
thousands <strong>of</strong> additional dollars in<br />
purchasing a home with a mortgage.<br />
An example <strong>of</strong> the heavy cost <strong>of</strong> high<br />
interest rates, the difference between a<br />
4'4 and 8 percent rate on a $20,000<br />
mortgage is $700 for the first year alone.<br />

After reading the remarks <strong>of</strong><br />
a eoncerneS citizen from Del.<br />
about beach fees and/or bridge<br />
tolls and after jillowing my<br />
blood to cool to 212 de^ees I<br />
now in full calm fury attempt<br />
to reply First it must be noted<br />
that the bridge hat one<br />
abutment on the mainland and<br />
one on the island<br />
How would the concerned<br />
taxpayer like n toll gats on<br />
both ends <strong>of</strong> the bridge? 1<br />
beleive also i tax on every load<br />
<strong>of</strong> gravel and top soil leaving<br />
the mainland would <strong>of</strong>fset<br />
some <strong>of</strong> our concern. What this<br />
taxpayer has overlooked in his<br />
desperation to maintain two<br />
home, one <strong>of</strong> which h» uses all<br />
<strong>of</strong> three months a year, is the<br />
fact his enjoyment depends by<br />
a larjpr measure on Offshore<br />
workers and materials, etc.<br />
We also defend our Qod<br />

Editor, Sentinel Ledger; In<br />
your editorial (<strong>Sep</strong>tember 19.)<br />
eoneenfng the Wetland. Bill,<br />
you itate that "<strong>of</strong>ficUI. <strong>of</strong> the<br />
southern counties where most<br />
<strong>of</strong> this meadow land is located<br />
say the act is an attempt by<br />
North Jersey politicians to<br />
reserve open spaces at someone<br />
else's expense" Perhaps these<br />
northern Jersey politicians do<br />
indeed appreciate what we still<br />
have and they have lost •••open<br />
spaces and marshlands that ire<br />
the source <strong>of</strong> myriad forms <strong>of</strong><br />
marine life, U it really at "our<br />
expense" th»t they are trying<br />
to preserve the wetlands? Do<br />
We really envy north Jersey's<br />
expansion and so-called<br />
economic progress? Yes, the<br />
cash registers here might ring<br />
more frantically for a while.<br />
But we would be squandering<br />
our future as a resort area if we<br />
destroyed the marshlands by<br />
permitting development to go<br />
unchecked.<br />
You state that "no one,<br />
including real estate<br />
speculators and government<br />
leaders, wants to see all <strong>of</strong> the<br />
state 1 * wetlands turned into<br />
housing developments and<br />
shopping centers". Agreed, But<br />
who will blow the whistle and<br />
shout "Stop!" at the proper<br />
time? Surely the Commissioner<br />
<strong>of</strong> Environmental Protection<br />
could do this much more<br />
Impartially and fairly than any<br />
set <strong>of</strong> local politicians (no<br />
matter how pure their motives)<br />
since the latter are usually<br />
personally Acquainted and<br />
involved with the developers.<br />
Moreover, the mapping <strong>of</strong> the<br />
wetlands is a prerequisite for<br />
intelligent management <strong>of</strong><br />
them, and this is precisely what<br />
the Wetlands Bill provides for.<br />
So let's stop quibbling about<br />
the wording <strong>of</strong> the bill and get<br />
on with the protection <strong>of</strong> our<br />
wetlands!<br />

Editor's Note: A copy <strong>of</strong> the<br />
following letter to the State<br />
Department <strong>of</strong> Environmental<br />
Protection was sent to thb<br />
newspaper with the request<br />
th»t it be reprinted here.<br />
Dear Commissioner Sullivan:<br />
I rejoiced to read about the<br />
St»to Assembly's passage <strong>of</strong> the<br />
Wetlands Act <strong>of</strong> <strong>1970</strong>, and I<br />
<strong>of</strong>fer my services, as a citizen,<br />
in doing whatever I can to help<br />
your department enforce its<br />
provisions.<br />
I reside in Mbntcloir, New<br />
Jersey, where my employment<br />
ii. But I own property and pay<br />
taxes on two hornet in <strong>Ocean</strong><br />
<strong>City</strong>, New Jerjejr, Therefore I<br />
am deeply concerned about the<br />
environmental tragedies<br />
engulfing that community.<br />
M icon as The Wetlands Act<br />
U signed by Governor Cahlll,<br />
and becomes law, I realize that<br />
your department will<br />
immediately be confronted<br />
with overwhelming new<br />
mponiibUitiet and I am sure<br />
that you an undeMtafftd,<br />
But t would like to niggtit<br />
that <strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong>, among our<br />
shore communities, It worthy<br />
<strong>of</strong> ipeeial attention. The Town<br />
Fathers there have done a fine<br />
job in ID many way*, and the<br />

TRENTON, <strong>Sep</strong>t.<br />
Tomorrow is the world <strong>of</strong><br />
youth, State Education<br />
Commissioner Carl L.<br />
Marburger has advised<br />
members <strong>of</strong> local Boards <strong>of</strong><br />
Education, and County<br />
Superintendents <strong>of</strong> Schooli, in<br />
asking that each school<br />
curriculum be geared to the<br />
future,<br />
"If air and water pollution<br />
are to be eliminated, if our race<br />
problem is to be solved, if the<br />
population and knowledge<br />
explosions are to be controlled,<br />
if problems not yet imagined<br />
are to be contended with, can<br />
we saddle tomorrow's citizen<br />
with yesterday's content and<br />
process?" Commissioner<br />
Marburger iskg.<br />
"Relevance is the<br />
contemporary password <strong>of</strong> our<br />
students and can we deny the<br />
relevence <strong>of</strong> their plea? They<br />
are not asking for sanctuary,<br />
for escape, for n cop-out. They<br />
are asking for an education<br />
which will be more effective in<br />
helping them face their<br />
problems, their reality, and<br />
their future. Student activism,<br />
in short, is more likely to<br />
become a significant and<br />
eonitructlve force on behalf <strong>of</strong><br />
improved education if we can<br />
all remember that schools are<br />
for children, that we teach<br />
what we Iiv«, and tomorrow is<br />
the world <strong>of</strong> youth."<br />
Dr. Marburger emphasized<br />
that "one day we must leave all<br />
that we possess to our<br />
children" and therefore parents<br />
and teadheM should spend as<br />
much time as possible teaching<br />
them techniques that will aid<br />
their future lives,<br />
"Most <strong>of</strong> our time, you<br />
and mine, is related to<br />
yesterday, quite limply<br />
because that is where we have<br />
spent most <strong>of</strong> our lives,"<br />
continued Dr. Marburger.<br />
"Moil <strong>of</strong> our children's time is<br />
related to tomorrow. Our<br />
students are oriented to the<br />
future and if schools are for<br />
children, should not the<br />
schools be future-oriiinted?"<br />
Dr. Marburger informed the<br />
school <strong>of</strong>ficials in his annual<br />
bulletin that pilot<br />
improvement programs are<br />
underway in many schools in<br />
thirteen districts <strong>of</strong> New Jersey<br />
to train more teachers in the<br />
use <strong>of</strong> specially-designed<br />
teaching strategies for<br />
developing children's thinking<br />
skills.<br />

AN ADVENTURE IN SAILING. Not too long ago we 1<br />
described in some detail an adventure in moving when<br />
we helped a young lady we know move a "few items" to<br />
her new apartment. We still carry the battle srars, a<br />
cruihed toe and cut leg, from that episode. More<br />
recently we got involved in an adventure in sailing on a<br />
sailfish <strong>of</strong>f the Morningside Road beach. We never<br />
realiied there was so much to sailing a 12 foot boat and<br />
even with the help <strong>of</strong> three <strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> Yacht Club<br />
trained sailors the boat capsized at least two dozen<br />
times. In addition we were washed <strong>of</strong>f the craft twice by<br />
waves coming ver the bow. Our adventure in sailing<br />
became an adventure in swimming. We learned some<br />
interesting sailing terms spiced up with some talk that<br />
would make a sailor blush as our skipper narrowly<br />
missed running over the North St, jetty. We have learned<br />
from f ^st experience that the end <strong>of</strong> a jetty is not the<br />
place to be with or without a boat. We jumped<br />
overboard when a collision appeared imminent. Finally<br />
the boat and two <strong>of</strong> its four occupants reached the<br />
beach amid the applause and giggles <strong>of</strong> a growing crowd.<br />
We, along with another sailor who abandoned ship,<br />
swam to the beach quietly avoiding as much <strong>of</strong> th><br />
limelight as possible We then parked our weary body on<br />
a nearby blanket and thanked heavens that our<br />
adventure in sailing, like the adventure in moving, WHS<br />

AN ADVENTURE IN FISHWG. For four summers<br />
we penned the "Hook . . . <strong>Line</strong> . . . Sinker" fishing<br />
column in this newspaper. During those years we<br />
acquired a wealth <strong>of</strong> knowledge about fish living in this<br />
area. However, we didn't learn how to catch fish. In<br />
recent weeks we have been listening to fish tales from<br />
Bob Davenport and Art Ford over the 9th st, and<br />
Asbury av. lunch table, We have no reason to question<br />
the veracity <strong>of</strong> these two sportsmen. They are both<br />
known for their prowess in the world <strong>of</strong> fish. The<br />
Wcoocnfflfi Ford and Davenport have reported that<br />
bluefish and waakfigh are especially plentiful in ocean<br />
waters this <strong>Sep</strong>tember. We will have to take their word<br />
for it. We have enough trouble trying to stay on a<br />
sailboat, let alone fish from it. We remember vividly our<br />
last fish. It was a white Martin caught in July <strong>of</strong> 1966,<br />
We haven't caught a fish since. Why bother, anything<br />
elje would be a let down,<br />

PROGRESS REPORT. The Editorin-Chief <strong>of</strong> this 1<br />
weekly newspaper, Vincent T. Michelette, entered Shore<br />
Memorial Hospital two weeks ago for an operation, Mr.<br />
Michelette ha* come along remarkably well and by the<br />
time this column appears in print our Editor should be<br />
home polishing his golf clubs. We visited Vjnce in his<br />
hospital room late last week and took him a copy <strong>of</strong> the<br />
Sentinel that was edited mainly by our hands and those<br />
<strong>of</strong> veteran reporter Steve Jones, We figured if showing<br />
Vince the Sentinel didn't bring on a relapje nothing<br />
would. Vince took the more obvious errors in stride and<br />
told us we did a good job. We are a little more confident<br />
this week and if everything goes well we should pretty<br />
well know what we are doing by the time our Editor<br />
returns from a period <strong>of</strong> extended convalescence on the<br />
golf course. Vince claims he needs up to eight weeks to<br />
fully recover. If that's teue we wiU more than likely be<br />
the Sentinel's next hoipital case.<br />
* • •<br />
MR. STEVE. Working with us while Editor<br />
Michelette is in the hospital and on vacation is veteran<br />
Atlantic <strong>City</strong> Press reporter Steve Jones, Steve is a<br />
highly capable and experienced reporter and has been a<br />
big help to us since Vince left. Monday afternoon Steve<br />
came back from lunch to find a box on his desk. The<br />
box contained a bright red rose and an enclosed card<br />
was from "An Admirer", Now, we have been covering<br />
the <strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> scene for four years and have never<br />
received any bouquets. We have had more than our<br />
share <strong>of</strong> brickbats hurled at us. Steve was naturally<br />
flattered, but couldn't figure out who could possibly<br />
have sent the flower. Then he thought Vince might have<br />
done it out <strong>of</strong> gratitude for not having to put up with us<br />
for the next few weeks. He called up the hospital, but<br />
Vince said he knew nothing about the flower. So the<br />
case <strong>of</strong> the mysterious rose continues. Will the real rose<br />
peddler please stand up? '<br />

next few weeks the leaves on the few trees we have<br />
around here, wUl start to change color, A chill is already<br />
m the early morning air, so we think we didn't bother<br />
getting up at 8:59 a.m. to welcome in the new season.<br />
After all these years we figured Pall could arrive without<br />
us. We securely pulled the covers up over our head just<br />
as the first chill air <strong>of</strong> autumn blasted through the open<br />
window. There is no mistaking it now. Summer is over<br />
for another year,<br />
* * *<br />
WE STAND CORRECTED, Last week we did a piece<br />
about the Miss America Pageant and other beauty<br />
pageants in this area. We stated that the first Miss <strong>Ocean</strong>'<br />
<strong>City</strong> Pageant was in 1907. The other day we received a<br />
letter from Bill MawWnney <strong>of</strong> 1561 Bay av, Mr,<br />
Mawhjnney pointed out that the original Miss <strong>Ocean</strong><br />
<strong>City</strong> Pageant was sponsored by the Exchange Club In<br />
1960 and I9S1. We were also told that the Exchange<br />
Club sponsored the Miss New Jersey Pageant at the<br />
Ftahdtfi Hotel ppols in 1962. This is something we did<br />
not know. Our memory does not go back that far con-<br />
corning such matters. Twenty years ago our interests were<br />
in making sand castlei on the beach and not watching the<br />
^rl« who wafted in front <strong>of</strong> those castles,<br />
matters. Twenty yean ago our interests were in making<br />
sand castles on the beach and not watching the girls who<br />
walked in front <strong>of</strong> those castles,<br />
* • •<br />
PANTS. We woe somewhat disappointed when we i<br />
saw our mother dressed in a pants wit with ball bottom<br />
design. Motherhood is always the last bastion <strong>of</strong><br />
continuity with the past in an ever changing world. And<br />
now our mother, hai toppled from her pedistal, thrown<br />
her skirts away and adopted the unisex look. Worse<br />
than that she claims she is making more <strong>of</strong> these outfits.<br />
All <strong>of</strong> this made-us stop and think when we last saw a<br />
female in a dress that made her look like she was<br />
supposed to look and not like a man. We couldn't<br />
remember when. American womanhood, with the<br />
exception <strong>of</strong> a brave few, has forsaken the mini skirt<br />
because in Women's Lib terms, "it putt women on<br />
display". We would like to go on the record as endorsing<br />
the mini skirt and any dress that is neatly tailored. We<br />
are tired <strong>of</strong> seeing women in pants with short hair and<br />
men in loose fitting garb with long hair, In this age<br />
where the only certainty is uncertainty, it would be nice<br />
if our eyes didn't have to deceive us. , )<br />

passages from Science and<br />

Scrip hires • by Mary Baker<br />
Eddy, Discoverer and Pounder<br />

"All reality is in Qod and<br />
His creation, harmonious and<br />
otemal. That which Ho creates<br />
is good, and He makes all that<br />
U made, Therefore the only<br />
reality <strong>of</strong> sin, ilckneu, or death<br />
is the awful fact that<br />
unrealities leem real to human,<br />
erring belief, until God mips<br />
