rier system" ^ • 7 But New Jersey’s only U.S. Senator told Watt that "this goal would best be ac- . complished by regulation directed at highly sensitive coastal areas" and said he strongly questioned the designation of Cape May complex and' Stone Harbor Point as undeveloped coastal barriers. "First, the Cape May and Stone Harbor areas are not undeveloped coastal barriers," Bradley asserted. "Perrhanent, year-round residents live in these two areas The*U.S. Coast Guard operates 3 major facility. In Cape May, including a number of access roads. To cut off federal flood insurance in these two areas would be a severe economic hardship on well-

estahjished communities."

In addition. Bradley said, "This designa-

tion is not necessary to restrict further development' in these two areas. Th? development of these twb areas is already

thoroughly regulated by state and local

(■authorities." % •

The Cape May area, he said, is protected

, by the New Jersey Wetlands Act "which

severely regulates development there." According to the Senator, the northern

part of Stone Harbor is protected from fur-

ther. development by deed restrictions. "While the state’s Office of Administrative

Law has ruled that development permits are possible in the southern part of Stone Harbor/ the NJ Deportment of Environmental Protettipn has givfcn assurances that the state does not intend to grant any permits. Finally, the state’s WaterYront Development Perniit Law establishes additional standards to limit development along the waterfront," Mr.

Bradley stated.ip a press release.

race

But the hills and dales, the cold weather, urban traffic and, last but not least, the fog in Cipe May all combined to make the raceHrom' the top to the bottom of the /Garden State a feat of no small propor-

tions.

"This was the moot demanding course ve experienced," Branhen said. ‘'It was necessary to change into a different pair of Shoes and arch supports about every 25 or 30 miles, and I rotated four pair flLjB&ks. during the race.” ^ T* AT ONE.POINT in the long run, Brannen's associate, Bill Schultz, cut the bottoms out of a pair of socks So Brannen could use the tops to warm his ankles. "I think I felt every emotion a person can have," Brannen explained. "The race was more physically challenging than we had ever'anticipated." ■•The eventual winner, who covered the 200 miles in 61 hours 16 minutes, suffered severe tendonitis in both ankles during the last 20 miles but made a spectacular. recovery and ended up with a triumphant shout as he dashed across the finish line at the Soldiers and Sailors Monument, Guemey and Columbia Ave^

Among the mind-over-body techniques this 42-year-old distance runner uses to conquer great distances is to scan the roadway for fallen change. -By the time he was forced out bf the race at the 106-mile mark, Berkowitz had managed to fihd 93 cents. ,• - The race, the’ first of its kijpd in the United States, served as a ^memorial Ho John -Salo, a Pasdaic policeman who was the first nlace finishes in a New York to Los Angeles race for professional runners in 1929. Two years later hewas killed when struck in the head by a baseball while on \duty at a ballpark - ' THE OTHER,finishers in the High Point-to-Cape May run included- second Robert Nelson, 35, of Nekton, N.J., 71 hours and 42 minutes; third John Hayes, 29, of Palmyra, N.J^, 02 hours. 52 minuea; and fourth 53-year-old Wes Emmohs of Philadelphia, 86 hours 46 minutes. The Greater Cape May Chamber of Commerce provided lodging and meaUrtor the runners, the local 1 police provided escort for the runners on the last leg of the arduous run, and the fire department was on hand at the finish line Saturday evening to provide lighting for the initial finisher and a knbt of reporters from the New York Times, Philadelphia fnquirer, Camden Courier and Cape Mhy County Herald. "WE DIDN’T SPONSOR the race," noted local Chamber president Mary % Loper. "We merely showed the hospitality

But next time he is suggestinga date later in spring because of the adverse weather encountered in the 1962 run down New Jersey from the Appalachians to the Atlaiftic.
