SPring B-0024 (Continued from Page 1) the linos oi' the "Dream " $800,000 marina proposed on the inside of Kalnnis Park Beach. Sponsors of the Lewis Bay Road boat basin used as their princi pal arguments the fact that yachting is growing by leaps and bounds and that Hyannis and Barnstable were losing much general business revenue because Ilyaiiuis Harbor had no adequate facilities to accommodate visiting yachtsmen. Opponents of the Lewis Bay Road proposal argued that if a marina were such a needed , profitable venture then private capital should be interested in promoting it. Apparently, private capital is doing just that. Our opinion is that this is good news for the economy of our town and , incidently, this well may mean that no more will be heard from the sponsors of the Lewis Bay Road basin. # • • • • SILLY SEASON ARRIVED EARLY Dwelling on marine matters, the incident in Hyannis Har- bor last week wherein some jokers untied a slew of boats moored at the bulkhead is the type qf silly business you normally don 't, expect on the Cape until Summer time, when our population includes many weird characters. Most plausible theory is that the thoughtless, dangerous act was perpetrated by a carload of 'teenagers, insp ired by a few cans of beer. About the best we can hope is that, if the person or per- sons responsible ever again consider a repeat they will con- sider what the consequences mi ght be if one of the boats were owned by their own parents. —Lou H. Howes * * * * * MERELY GROWING PAINS Reports are circulated, not confirmed , that many persons in Osterville are disturbed because of the installation of park- ing meters in the business district. This brings to mind the fact that when meters first were installed in downtown Hyannis some of the merchants pro- tested that, this would be the ruination of business in the area. As we see it , the installing of the meters is a common- sense step made necessary by the simple fact that there are so many cars and j ust the same amount of space for them. —Lou H. Howes MEMORIAL DAY MORE THAN A DAY OF REMEMBRANCE AND MOURNING Traditional since the days following the War Between the States, Memorial Day has for nearly a century been the one day in the year when we stop our dail y work and pay reverence to those who have died in the service of their country. Over the years the day has assumed an even greater im- portance. It has gradually become a day on which we remem- ber with prayers and floral tributes , those of our families who have departed. As we observe this solemn holiday, we must remember the sorrow visjted upon thousands of families in onr community over the years, through death on the battlefields and death in ¦our homes. As we perform our solemn duty on this day, can we forget altogether the terrible carnage caused on our public highways each holiday. Here is the grim reaper working at top speed and at his very worst. It is a trag ic thing to realize thai on the one hand we are say ing a solemn prayer for relatives and friends who have passed away and on the other hand are preparing a grave which will hold the remains of a dear one . who will have fallen victim to tho greatest killer of all times—highway carlessncss. Barnstable Under-Currents (Continued from I'age 1) "The problem before the Hoard is a complex one. Non-conforming uses have a legal standing, and cannot be erased by zoning regula- tions. Reasonable repairs, re-model- ing, and even reconstruction, are recognized by the law. Hut the will of the majority, as expressed in Town Meeting, is paramoun t. If a district is zoned for residential purposes, the law looks with dis- favor upon non-residential uses, even though such uses anteceded zoning, and have lega l sanction as non-conforming uses. The issue for the Hoard to determine is whether the proposed motel WOUld extend or enlarge the non-conforming use unduly, so as to conflict with the general spirit of Hie Osterville by- law , and result in ;< use determen- ts! to the area. "Upon consideration, the Hoard of Appeals, In this case, [eels that such detrimental result would oc- cur , if a special pel mit were Bi'ant- eil. i'. 'ven though it is conceded that the petitio ner would erect an at- liariive motel, and Operate It. ill a superior manner , it is nevertheless loua question whether a in to fiO-motel, with separate entrances, separate parking area, and the un- settled residence which charac- terizes motels, would not unduly enlarge the present limited capac- ity of the Manor , or conflict with do- spirit of the Osterville zoning by-law, or result in a use deteri- mental to the Residence I) area. "We are further persuaded in this determination by the action of the 1968 Town Meeting in rejecting motels in an area where hotels and rooming houses are expressly allowed , under speciul permit . "The Board feels that if this petitioner presents plans for a 25-30 room , conventionally-built hotel, eliminating the motel features that appear objectionable at the pres- ent time, they mi ght well merit approval. Hence, it has been unani- mously VOTED; To deny the peti- tion without prejudice." Appeals Board Denies Motel Petition WILLIAM BOULE i Painter and Decorator Dry Walling Osterville Tel.

SUNDAY SCHOOL CLOSED WITH CHILDREN'S DAY The childre n of the Cotuit Fed- erated Church had their annual children 's day program on Sunday, May 25, with John V. Christeusen, Sunday School superintendent , wel- coming the parents and friends who attended the early service. Each department from the Nur- sery School up through the sixth graders took part in the services with the third graders receiving Ribles. As usual they were a de- light to behold and conducted themselves with a fresh and youth- ful decorum as parents and friends beamed their love and encourage- ment to each little public speaker. The It o'clock worship service was conducted by the older group of young people with an eclat hard to duplicate in any age group. The J Rev. Stephen H. Smith opened the I service with an opening prayer ; Dorothy Long read the Scriptures, and Kathryn Cliffor d led the con- gregation in the call to prayer. Sandra Frazier conducted the re- sponsive reading while Betsy Ca- bral made the announcements and directed the offertory with a poise beyond her years. The spiritual message, "To Come Unto Me " as given by .Margaret Smith with a sincerity and simplicity worthy of her father 's daughter . The benediction was given by Helen Anschewitz with a prldeful dignity . Mary Lee MacDowell was the accolyte for the 11 o'clock ser- vice while Margaret Smith served as accolyte for the early service. NO RECORD HOP FRIDAY Due to the holiday weekend the weekly record hop will not be held this week. There will be one tho following Friday, however. The re- sponse and enthusiasm for these bops has been great enough to consider having the year round and many thanks go to .Mrs .Alice Enos who originated them and to Mrs. Lee Uurlingam e , and Mr. and Mrs. John Christeusen who are on hand every Friday night supposed- l y chaperoning the youngsters but apparently having as much fun as any of the teenagers.

Tel. SPring fi-2145 To the Editor The Barnstable Pfttriol j would like through your columns to express my appreci- ation to all those who took pari iti the boal rescue operations in Hyanni s Harbor on Ma'y -'¦ ' >. When 1 was called to the harbor at r> :45 that morning, and saw the boat s thai had been cast adrift- some of the largesl ones already beaclted, and others still loose and theaten- ing damage to boats and property on the east side of the hnr- 1,0,— I would not have dared to predict that Hie situation could be restored to normal so quickly and with such a small amount of damage; 1 ant grateful to my boatyard employees, who came to my assistance so promptly, ami to tho boat owners who showed B hu e spirit of cooperation. I am especially gtateful to Richard Thompson of the Xani tick et Boat, Inc., who volunteered his services w i t h the vessel "Americana" for the ta-l< of pulling oil the boats which had gone aground and were sunk deep in the mud of the shallow north end of the innermost cove. He and his crew , with the able assistance of boat owners and vol- unteer helpers aboard the grounded craft , did a very fine job. KENNETH J. UKADBURY Hyannis Harbormaster I Letters To The Editor Hyannis Harbor looked as though it bad been struck by a hur- ricane last Friday morning, when boats of all sizes were piled in a jumbled heap at the northerly end of the harbor . Over a dozen boats ranging from 15 footers to the 00 loot Hyannis wore piled logther in a disorderly array, till stranded when tbe high tide of early morn- ing bad receded. The craft were apparently loosed from their moorings hy vandals sometime before high tide at about 3:30 a.m. The fact that all but one of lbe mooring lines on the Slascon- sett , Helda and Americana had been released saved three excur- sion boats from joinin g in the pile- up at the end of the harbor. The Hyannis , a GO footer, was damaged to the extent of about $600 , ac- cording to Arne Pederson, owner. Other craft were not seriously hurt. Barnstable Police were investi- gating, but had not located the per- sons responsible for the act of vandalism. Park Commissioner Charles Sav- ory said the commission had offer- ed a reward of $100 for the arrest and conviction of those responsible.
