i John >1. Shaw. 3d. a carpenter who specializes in restorations and additions. has been appointed to the city's Historic District Commission. "1 would like to do as good as I can. I plan to do my homework, and I hope to find it interesting," said Shaw when asked his thoughts about his new job. Shaw, 30, who lives on Hughes Street.^ is a graduate of Lower Cape May Regional High School who has lived in the city since 1962 A member of Cape May Rescue Squad. Shaw work ed on restoring the old Windsor Hotel before it burned down. Active in scouting, he visited Canada and New Mexico as a member of Troop 84 which is attached to the Coast Guard base. Shaw replaces Ann Gib-

bons. proprietor of The Helm motel, who resigned. TRIBUTE WAS PAID to the city employes who clean the beaches at a recent meeting of City Council. "I think the people and city are to be congratulated on the quality of the beach,'' Robert Cunningham. treasurer of the Taxpayers Association, said. "It's cleaner this year." Fire Chief Wister Dougherty called the results "absolutely superb. They've got all the city beaches in excellent condition." Mayor Arthur Blomkvest noted that Jerry Inderwies, ' assistant superintendent of public works, was up one night qntiUam., repairing the machine that cleans the beaches. "I'm very proud, and I think they are doing a fine job." said the mayor. MAYOR BLOMKVEST also congratulated the crews that sell and monitor the use of beach tags. "I have been impressed this year with enforcement." the mayor said. "It's not an easy job." But the Taxpayer's Cunningham said there are times when they are not on the job. "Ia»ts of days you don't see anybody after three o'clock" said Cunningham of the beach tag workers who are supposed to work untjl 5 p.m. Blomkvest. however, said it was not the city's intention "to run a Gestapotype situation." CUNNINGHAM, in line with the Taxpayers Association's policy of having members attend City Council meetings, questioned city officials closely on several matters. He was particularly concerned about the city spen ding $25,000 for mobile emergency generators to pump water in the event of a power failure. Cunningham inquired about the number of times there have been failures, and whether v the city might not be able to | borrow units from other communities in the event of an emergency Council members ^ pointed out that the ■ generators are mandated •by the state, and failure to obtain them could result in daily fines of $5,000 "I can't believe that people would question the need for them." said City Electrician Conrad Briant. "We've been flirting with disaster for a long time." Briant said the city's storage tank holds only 700,000 gallons of water, and firemen have pumped up to 800,000 gallons fighting fires. Council authorizedi bids on the generators, and told Cunningham they would try to get more answers to his questions COUNCILMAN HARRY ■ GILBERT'S report that ■ through last week- the city I has sold more beach tags I (5.957) than for the same I period in either of the two I preceding years, led to a I series of questions from M Cunningham

"What has been the maximum number of people on the beach on any one day?" Cunningham asked. "That's tough to answer. There are five different kinds of tags." said Gilbert. "How many (on the beach) have no tags? Cunningham asked. "That's a tough question, too," replied Gilbert. CUNNINGHAM ASKED the $64,000 question for this time of the year: "How is business in Cape May?" "The majority of business people seem verypleased." replied Mayor Blomkvest. "Weekends, things might be a little off. but I don't see it myself." Councilman Adrian S. Capehart said a check with the Garden State Parkway's Cape May toll plaza indicated a heavy influx of tourists. "About 68,000 cars passed through on Aug. 3." Capehart said. "That's the greatest amount in one day since the parkway opened." A check with parkway officials confirmed the figures. But no data was available on whether it was a new daily record. "It's probably a high." said one official How the mighty have fallen' It was not too many years ago when City Manager Fred Coldren was in the nation's capitol as administrative assistant to U.S. Rep Charles Sandman Last week U.S. Rep William J Hughes sent out a news release that talked about Coldren and Boy Scout Troop 84 attending the National Boy Scout Jamboree in Washington In it. Coldren's name is spelled "Caldron" A photograph of Coldren and the scouts is elsewhere in this issue Harry Miller, chairman of Cape' May Points Environmental ' Commission, thinks that it's time the commission had some women Qn it. And since the commission currently has two vacancies. Miller thinks the stage is set fog lady commissioners He asked the borough commissioners last week to

add "distaff" members to the four male environmentalists. Cape May Point's Lillian Speer has been appointed zoning officer replacing Jack Haley who resigned. Are bathers and sun seekers from places like Cape May. West Cape May, North Cape May. and Villas flocking to Cape May Point beaches because the Point has no parking meters? That's the theory of Bob Grubb. head of the Point's beach program. Grubb told the borough commission last week he believes that is why there is a slightly denser pack of people this summer on the Point's hitherto sparsely populated sands. Cape May Point's borough commission last week approved a shortterm loan to cover unexpected shortfalls in the budget. The amouqt to be borrowed is $4,600. Of the total, $2,000 will be spent to cover repairs to a new Ford Fairmount police car purchased last year An increase in insurance premiums accounts for an additional $1,500 and $500 will go to pay for unanticipated expenses in the tax collector's office. The odd $600 is for miscellaneous outlays. But more than making up for the above expenses, the Point received notice from the state Dept of Transportation that reimbursement is forthcoming for $34,208 worth of repaving of Sea Grove. Cambridge, and Princeton avenues. The streets were torn up to lay new water pipes. A contract for the repairs has been awarded to McCarthyPaving. Woodbine, but work is not expected to start until testing of the Cambridge Avenue pipe for bacteria is completed. The absence of complaints about the lifeguards or the beaches in Cape May Point is enhancing the summer of Mayor Frank S. Rutherford Jr. • "It makes me feel pretty good." said the mayor last week "In past years we've had complainLs."
