Results weren't in on the voting on Ordinance 726, which was taken up for final reading at last night's regular meeting of Stone Harbor Borough Council. The ordinance was proposed as a measure to control the proliferation of multipledwelling units. If passed, it will increase the amount of square footage required to build a duplex. Present land requirements in areas zoned "B" are 7,000 square feet. This would be increased to 8,200 square feet. In areas zoned "C", footage needed will increase from 4,000 to 6,000 square feet. IT HASN'T gone unnoticed by resdidents that dicey issues are likely to come before council during a holiday period when residents' minds are on other things. Last year it was a question of whether the school should be authorized to buy land for possible expansion. They got approval to do so. It will be interesting to see how many residents showed up to support this ordinance and how many and who will be opposing it. Msgr. Vincent Giammarino, of St. Paul's Roman Catholic Church, will be retiring in this, his 75th year. It has been his custom to entertain his most dedicated workers at a party in the rectory annually. This year he invited 65 of his most loyal workers to join

him for cocktails and a chicken Cordon Bleu dinner at the Whitebrier Inn. Everyone dressed beautifully to honor their host at this very special occasion and it was a truly gala evening. The dining room was decorated for the holidays and everyone was in a sentimental mood. MONSIGNOR addressed his guests and thanked them for all their help through the years. Those he mentioned by name were: the late James Sheer an. whose wife, Grace, is a layreader at St. Paul's; Sara Brady; Agnes Errickson; Ray deLaurentis, and Frank D'Elia. He went on to say that he could never have brought about his many accomplishments without the unwavering support of his organist, his housekeeper, charity drives, his chairpeople. his ushers and many more, including the fine priests who have assisted him. Father Michael Orsi paid the retiring Monsignor a fine tribute and both men were visibly moved, as were the guests. Monsignor is still a go-getter. Only this year St. Paul's has been refurbished: The old red doors have been replaced by glass ones affording a long vista of the altar, the pews have been re finished and the sanctuary has been extended and painted so the muchloved man: is leaving in a blaze of glory.

Harbor will miss his wit and infinite kindness. THE KEEPING in Touch (KIT) Christmas luncheon 1 at Stone Harbor Fire Hall was a success for the third consecutive year. The meal, ; served at festively decorated tables were prepared by KIT members and enjoyed by more than 50 guests. Santa Claus, Joe Scott, arrived sans sleigh and dispensed gifts to each invitee to the strains of carols supplied by musicians Ray deLaurentis and Councilman Harry Stroh-

metz following lunch. Members of this outfit vie to excel in Christmas spirit. An inside source told us that this year, prexy Alexandra Kokonos and new board member Mary Conwell tied in outdoing themselves. ALEX COVERED every base logistically and Mary batted a thousand creatively. (Each guest received a Conwell-constructed, holly napkin ring as a souvenir and pigged out on Con-well-created Christmas candy.) K.P. members Jo

Levison, Peg Grimes, Anne Townley and Sara Brady were shook to find no hot water for cleanup; (hot or not, no hot water in a fire house? ) but they boiled their own and coped. We understand board membership is limited to 11, but there are associate or contributing members also. Four who helped host the part were: lone Pope, Teddy Owens. Alice Daniels and Matt Woolery. Among the guests we saw Mayor Arden and Anne Hand; perennial youngster Alan Marlor. who's pushing

98, does his own housework and cooking and walks everywhere; man-about-town Bob Yeoman wearing his Christmas vest; Eliza llarbage, just returned from her granddaughter's oneartist showing in Rhode Island; ROA board member Scott Daniels; art entrepreneur Ernie Blair: and bridge-whiz Marie Dunne.
