Program To Help = Abusers COURT HOUSE - The Cape May County unit of the Coalition Against Rape . and Abuse (CARA), has started a program to help men who are abusive to their mates and spouses. It is financed through a grant. The group led by Terri Scott. M.S., C.A.C., and Vinnie McGuire, M.A., both of Cape May, meets 7:30-9:30 p.m. every Monday at the Crest Haven Complex here. ITS GOAL is to stop violence and help the men learn alternative coping skills and alternative forms of acceptable behavior. The target of the program is any male living in the county who has started a domestic violence crisis or who is at risk of creating domestic violence. In most cases, this means men who beat or abuse their wives or girl friends. The group is free to men who make a commitment for an eight-week period. Further information can be obtained by calling Scott at 884-0703 or McGuire at 884-2568

• WHAT'S THE STATUS of the Chamber of Commerce building? Villas resident Mary Baxter asked councilmen during their work lesson last week. "They have not asked us to do anything about it yet." Township Manager James R. Stump replied. "We don't want the county there," Baxter insisted, referring to the chamber's July proposal that the county buy the Bayshore Road headquarters in Villas for $13,000 and lease the municipal land beneath the one-story structure for 99 years at a dollar a year. Little has been heard of that proposal since July but rumor has it the township will agree to it. Baxter questioned Councilman Robert Conroy about the proposal since he is a chamber official. "As yet I haven't heard anything," he replied. The county, Baxter complained, already controls too much tax-exempt property in Lower like the Erma airport and Historic Cold Springs Village. Now the county's trying to acquire the chamber building and is "moving in" on the township-owned Joseph Millman Community Center, Bayshore Road, Villas, Baxter said. BAXTER ALSO griped to councilmen last week that "someone is inviting anyone who wants to" to use Millman for meetings \ and get-togethers. It's "open to the public," Stump noted. The public of Lower only, Baxter stressed, protesting its use by churches and youth groups. "So, who do you want us to restrict it to?" asked the manager. Organizations from the township, Baxter replied. Stump, however, argued that Millman's use is already restricted to Lower groups, alluding to the fact that those groups include churches and youth organizations. Children, Baxter instited, can use the township Recreation Center while churches can use their own facilities. ! FRANK FRITZ told council last week that township plans for a trash-to-energy incinerator "seems to have waned — so much that we have lost interest in it. "Just what's happening there?" he asked after Incinerator Authority Chairman Patricia Bowman asked council to accept her resignation and disband the authority. "Well, part of the problem has been the chairperson," said Mayor Robert Fothergill who appointed Bowman last year. He said he was sorry he missed the previous week's meeting when she resigned, but he was out of town attending an emergency management seminar. "I think Lee has hit the nail on the head," Fothergill said of authority member Lee Stanton's earlier call on council to fill five vacancies on the authority and its advisory council. The aurthority engineer's report has been filed, Fothergill told Fritz, but "the story is the county

controls the trash." The report is pending presentations to council and county freeholders, added the mayor. Stanton said the authority members were supposed to write separate opinions on the engineer's report and submit them together, but Bowman changed her mind and read her's at council regular meeting Sept. 16. Fritz asked Fothergill about councilmen's view on the proposed incinerator project. "I can't speak for council," Fothergill replied, noting though, that the engineer said "it's totally feasible. "The technology is there," he added, "if we want to put it to work." The state gave responsibility for trash to the freeholders who turned it over the county MUA, said Councilman Joseph Lonergan. Lower officials, he said, had hoped to talk over the incinerator issue with freeholders but they apparently gave the MUA carte blanche on the matter, he said. "I guess we're going to have to catch the freeholders in a good mood some day," Lonergan observed. "It's been a long time since anything positive has happened," said Fritz. "I have to agree with \you," said Councilman Robert Conroy. "I don't think we're ever going to get off first base. "I think we're beating a . dead horse," he added. Conroy said he'd rather see * the township money spent « on something else. < According to Bowman's figures, the township has 1 spent $26,617.74 on the in- < cinerator project since the .

authority was formed early last year. In her resignation speech before council Sept. 16, she linked Fothergill to a $5,000 appropriation for an engineering review which, she said, was not authorized by a majority of authority members. Cass Clark, a member of the authority's advisory council, said Lower's "not going to get" approval for an incinerator because "it's political." For whatever reason it's denied, Conroy noted, the incinerator project still isn't getting anywhere. Clark griped that the county MUA spends far more than the authority's $26,617 on its projects, including that "hole up there" in Woodbine — the county landfill.
