Civic Units ProtestExtension of Sunrise

Meeting Scheduled

A meeting to protest any extension of Sunrise Highway southof the Long Island Rail Road tracks from Eastport to the QuogueWildfowl-Wildlife Sanctuary will be held at 8:30 p.m. tomorrow inWesthampton Beach Elementary School.

But District Engineer Austin M. Sarr of the N. Y. State PublicWorks Department Tuesday calledthe opposition ''premature."

"Preliminary plans will not beavailable until late in 1963," saidthe district engineer in his Baby-lon office. "No public hearing willbe held until early 1961. Not be-fore 1965 would any extension ofthe highway be made."

Alternative routes would takethe highway south of the railroadtracks or north of the Suffolk AirForce Base.

Mayor Paul V. W. Waldo ofWesthampton Beach expressed op*-position to any proposed exten-sion that would cut between theWesthampton Beach station andthe village. He said routing of thehi ghway south of the railroadtracks would necessitate the re-moval of nine or 10 homes and anasphalt plant and lumber yard.

"It would be shorter to run theextension north of the Air Forcebase," said Mr. Waldo , "ratherthan looping it south of the rail-road tracks."

Mayor Harvey E. Cooley ofQuogue, called the meeting at theelementary school . Mayor Waldosaid he would not be able to at-tend because of a village boardmeeting. Expected to send delega-tions are the communities of Rem-senburg, Westhampton , East Quo-gue, Westhampton Beach andQuogue. Assemblyman Perry B.Duryea , Jr., and spokesman forthe Air Force base and the StateConservation D e p a r t m en t arescheduled to speak at the meet-ing.

Mastic Beach Monument

Editor , The Long Island Advance :

It has been brought to my at-tention by several people, that themonument erected by the Ameri-can Legion of Mastic Beach honor-ing our war dead , shows disre-spect to the Still monument be-cause it was erected approxima-tely seven feet in front of theStill monument.

I, as chairman of the memorialcommittee, chose this location. Idid not intend to offend anyoneby my actions. My thoughts werethat the men and women thismonument represents should befacing the flag of their country.

Any other location would havemeant facing the back of thismonument to the flag, which inmy opinion would show greaterdisrespect to the men and womenwe honored by the dedication ofthis memorial.
