VolunteersPeese FireAt 2 aum. Wed

Center Moriches Vol-unteer Firemen wereroused from their bedsat 2:25 a.m. yesterdaymorning to respond to analarm at the MorichesHotel on Main Street.The alarm was trig-gered by the fire andsmoke detection systeminstalled in the build-ing. When firemen andpolice arrived, it wasreported9 smoke wascoming from a secondstory window.

Firemen promptly rushed tothe upper story erf the build-ing and to the location of thofire. Using two -one-and-one-halfinch lines, the vamps rushedinto the smoke-filled room anddoused the area of the dense con-centration of smoke. The causewas later determined to be asmoldering pillow.

Their efforts were not ap-preciated, however, James Bar-ret, hotel owner, vehernentallycharged the fire department withusing unneccessary means iodousing the fire, a tire depart-ment official later reported.

Fire Chief William Mullaafchowever, defended the actions <sthe department, stating: "It is a~fjob to protect ths lives of thornpersons living in this buildisftTherefore, we can not take _grchances. The smoke indicatedthat a fire was in progress, how-ever large or small, and it wasour duty to extinguish this fire.

"Unfortunately," Chief Mul-lane added, "water sometimesdoes more damage than fire. Butwe were at the hotel in responseto an alarm, and it was our jobto prevent the spread ot the firethat was there."

Yesterday's fire was the thirdtime the Center Moriches vampswere called to the hotel. Thefirst two alarmb, both issued cmSundays, turned out to be falsealarms. As a result ot thesealarms, the volunteers conduct-ed a recent drill to determine tbebest means to establish the bestflow of water to the hotel site incase of fire. Lines were run froma well location at Union Avenue,and additional lines were runto tbe canal on Canal Street.

Application Is filmFor Whwi TV Station

Edward W. Wood, Jr., presi-dent of The Island BroadcastingSystem CWETV-WALK) Inc., hatsfiled an application for an ultrahigh frequency (UHF) televisionlicense for Riverhead. The al-located freojiency for Rives-headis Channel 55.

Previously, WRIV had appliedfor Channel 75 which was the onlystation proposed for SuffolkCounty and was allocated to Pat-chogue. However, acting underrules of tbe Federal Communica-tions Commission, WRIV re-quested in its initial applicationin 1964, that it be permitted tolocate Its transmitter withinthree miles of downtown River-head and its studios in the cen-tral Riverhead area.

The presentation of this pro-posal was made because WRIVcontended that Riverhead andEastern Suffolk County receiveonly fringe television receptionand therefore need first classtelevision service far more thanother parts of Long Island. Inaddition, a television station inRiverhead would be able to carryprograms benefiting all ot East-ern Suffolk County with live com-munity broadcasting.

Apparently, government analy-sis of the area's problem of tele-vision concurred, and Channel55 was allocated to Riverheadrecently. Mr. Wood said thatplane were being studied for aWRIV Communication Center thatwould coHtain facilities for radioand television broadcasting, As-sociated with Mr. Wood in fidsproposed television-radio com-plex is news commentator ChetHuntley, who recently addressedRiverhead community leaders ata luncheon for Riverhead Day atthe New York World's Fair.

Mr. Wood, who is currentlyPresident of the RiverheadChamber ot Commerce, notedthe communication's experienceof the partners in Island Broad-casting totals over 111 years.

Ss Answer to Dream of Two Men

fly &r firirg-fa Service

Though it Is not readily ap-parant at first glance, a uniqraioperation is performed on as EastMoriches tract of land, ocawhich encompasses tfaa dreamaaftwo men. The operation ia thatof Bart's Auto and Aviation Ser-vice, and the sercice is thatwhich the name implies. Auto-mobiles are repaired in a fullyequiped shop in front, and air-planes serviced and repaired iaan attached hanger at the rear.

The first dream answered bythis combined service operationis that cf W. T. Piper, martthan well known in the airplanemanufacturing circles. Mr. Pip-er's dream calls for the estab-lishment of small airstrips toenable the light aircraft buff toenjoy the conviences of simple*personal service. His idea isto have every community seiaside a mere seven-acres closeto the nearest highway, a singlegrass strip maybe 3,000 feetlong, with a telephone booth anda windsock. If such a stripcould be coupled with a motelor a gas station, so much U»better, Mr. Piper has stated.

A respected flying publication,outlining Mr. Piper's dream,once noted: "Twenty-five year*ago the boat manufacturers re-cognized a potential market _recreational buyers who onlyneeded to have some place to goto make boating appealing. Thatwas when the word 'marina' wasinvented and the places-to-godeveloped, add everyone knowswhat that did to the growth cfthe boat business.

"As the word 'port' makes onethink ot big ships , the word'airport' makes one think of greatbig airliners. What we need ismore light plane 'marinas' forbusiness and pleasure.''

This is perhaps is the bestway to describe the airport built,owned and operated by Bart Sp a-daro of East Mbrifcbes, a lightplane "marina." Bart's air-strip encompasses all tbe re-quirements acted te Mr. piper'sdream, eicept that cf a motel.And that is but a short car tripaway.

The second dream was thatharbored by Bart- the abilityto combire bis love cf flyingwith the necessity of earninga living. This dream too hasbeen answered in the operationof Bart's Auto and Aviation Ser-vice.

But this dream did not justmaterialize overnight. It startedmany work-filled years ago whenBart first started his flyingcareer. In order to pay forthe flight lessons, Bart workedas an automobile mechanic. At16 years -of age, he soloed forthe first time on May 24, 1945at Zahn's Airport in North A-mityville. At 17 he becamea licensed pilot, and then begantraining in tbe field of aircraftmechanics.

Today he holds an airframeand pofferpSaat mechanics li-
