The force of the impact hurled his bod y than 100 feet. LIRR Asks (Continued from Page 1) per cent rise over the rates in effect since 1918. In March, 1949, a third temporary bike of 25 per cent of the rates in effect at that time , put commutation fares 5G per cent higher than the 1947 rates. The fourth one now being sought on a permanent basis will add 32.5 per cent on top of those already authorized. It will mean that $1.00 worth of travel in 1947 will now cost $2.07 , if the PSC okays the hike. The trustees put a "rush order " on their petition , asking permis- sion to put the passenger fares into effect at the earliest possible date upon one day ' s notice. The proposed increase would produce an estimated hike of 28.64 per cent in the LIRR' s commuta- tion revenues. With the increase sought in basic one-way fares , the company estimates, additional rev- enue of $6,070,000 per year based on anticipated 1950 passenger traf- fic. This will not balance , according to railroad figures , the loss the LIRR anticipates during 1950 of $6, 580,000. Its petition points that for 1949 the road' s operation resulted in a net loss of $5, 208,289. For the first four months of 1950, the latest period for which such figures are available , the LI RR has gone into the red to the tune of $2,777,911. The PSC in June , 1948, directed that " a thorough study of costs and relevant data should be made by the LIRR and the fixation of just and reasonable rates should be deferred until this is done , placed in evidence and scrutinized by the staff of the commission. " The stud y has been reduced to exhibit form in six parts and com- prise s a total of 254 pages. For a long period of time, the work in- volved the services of as many as 460 employes and the employ- ment of many new ones , the LIRR said. Denis Would Condemn Line Two more outraged Suffolk or- ganizations on Tuesday went into action to block the Long Island Rail Road' s latest grab at the com- muter 's pocket. The Suffolk County Council of Democratic Clubs , showing con- siderable political acumen in a well-timed concern for the budgets of commuting Suffolk voters , ap- pealed to Gov Dewey to condemn the rickety railroad and set up a public transit authority. The Babylon Commuters As- sociation blasted the LIRR de- mand for a 32.5 per cent hike in commutation fares as an outrage and called for volunteers to carry on the fight. In a telegram to the governor , H Woodruff Bi.ssell, president of the Democratic council , repre- senting some 22 Suffolk Demo- cratic clubs , urged the appoint- ment of a committee to study the possibility of creating a Long Is- land Transit Authority with the objective of " expropriating the railroad and saving the only means of commutation for thou- sands of citizens ." Bissell said Suffolk commuters are " already risking their lives daily due to unspeakably inef- ficient management" on the part of the LIRR. He urged priority of the LIRR I problem over " any multi-million- dcllar expense for a through way project. " The Babylon group, whose spokesman was publicity chair- man Leon J Kelly, pointed out that if the railroad were to get its pro- posed fare raise, commutation rates would be almost double those of 1947. "Commuters are asked to pay twice as much for a service already known to be the world' s worst ," declared Kelly. "Nor is the com- muter offered any new safeguards against a repetition of the Rock- ville Centre disaster. PSC Stops 'Curfew' In a unanimous decision , the Public Service Commission on Tuesday, June 6 told the Long Is- land Roil Road to stop ringing midnight curfew on the five-day restricted tickets. The bankrupt and blue-nosed railroad must al- low rides until 2am after mid- night on the fifth day. It doesn ' t quite transform the harassed LIRH "Cinderella " rider into a princess . It does mean , how- ever , that a Friday evening on the town, which may extend beyond midnight , won ' t cost the restricted- ticket commuter the price of one- way fare home. Regardless of what the tickets' fifth day may fall on , the order holds good. However , Friday was tile chief concern of Stanley Sachs, the 25-year-old Lawrence commu- ter who desi gnated himself a one- man army against the Cinderella rule and bombarded the PSC with ' more than enough petitions to j fp^ce a hearing on the subj ect. Saturday, June 3, was a red let- ter day on the calendar of the Order of the Eastern Star , with some 210 members of the organiza- tion , representing virtually every chapter on Long Island and two in Connecticut , journeying to Fishers Island for the annual visitation of Suffolk District officials to Wime- dewsis Chapter. The tri p from Orient in the morning and the re- turn late in the afternoon was made on a New London Freight Lines' ferry. Heading the big party were Mrs Kathleen Scudder of Northport , district deputy grand matron , and Josep h Cottrell of Patchogue, dis- trict grand lecturer. Special guests on the excursion were John S Dol- son of Brooklyn , associate grand pairoi of the Gran d Chapter , State of New York , and Mrs Nettie V Higgins of Garden City, past grand matron of the Grand Chapter. There was a delegation of four from Brooklyn and the group in- cluded members of councils in New London and Mystic , Conn. MISS TALMAGE A GRADUATE Jane Talmage, daug hter of Mr and Mrs N A Talmage of River- head , was graduated on June 6 from the Tobe Coburn School for Fashion Careers in New York. Mr and Mrs Talmage were guest at a reception for parents and students preeeeding graduation on June 5. Miss Talmage, who graduated from Middlebury College in 1949, will join James McCreery & Company as an executiv e trainee on July 17 after spending a vacation with her parents. MISS HOLESTON TO MARRY Mr and Mrs Asher Holeston of Riverhead announce the forthcom- ing marriage of their daughter Elinor to Robert C Young, son of Mr and Mrs Carl C Young, also of Riverhead. The date has been set for Sunday, Aug 6. The couple will reside on Sound Avenue. 210 Eastern Star Members Visit Isle Robert Armbrust , son of Mr and Mrs Walter Armbrust has attain- ed top scholastic honors of the Mat- tituek High School Cl ass of 1950. Although losing some of his high school time by being stricken with polio , Robert leads his class of 41 seniors with an average of 93 per cent. Robert was a member of the band , orchestra , glee club and boys chorus as well a.s participating in track and pitching horseshoes on the County Championshi p team.

She was a member of the girls dancing team during the min- strel show and is this year ' s presi- dent of the Student Council.

NEWALIS-CAMPBEIX At a pretty spring wedding sol- emnized at the rectory of St John 's R C Church of Riverhead on Sun- day, May 28, Miss Joyce Evelyn Campbell , daughter of Mr and Mrs Hugh Campbell , became the bride of Walter Newalis , son of Mr and Mrs Joseph Newalis of South Jamesport.

per cent rise over the rates ineffect since 1918. In March, 1949,a third temporary bike of 25 percent of the rates in effect at thattime , put commutation fares 5Gper cent higher than the 1947 rates.

The fourth one now being soughton a permanent basis will add 32.5per cent on top of those alreadyauthorized. It will mean that $1.00worth of travel in 1947 will nowcost $2.07 , if the PSC okays thehike.

The trustees put a "rush order"on their petition , asking permis-sion to put the passenger faresinto effect at the earliest possibledate upon one day's notice.

The proposed increase wouldproduce an estimated hike of 28.64per cent in the LIRR's commuta-tion revenues. With the increasesought in basic one-way fares, thecompany estimates, additional rev-enue of $6,070,000 per year basedon anticipated 1950 passenger traf-fic.

This will not balance , accordingto railroad figures , the loss theLIRR anticipates during 1950 of$6,580,000.

Its petition points that for 1949the road's operation resulted in anet loss of $5,208,289. For the firstfour months of 1950, the latestperiod for which such figures areavailable, the LIRR has gone intothe red to the tune of $2,777,911.

The PSC in June, 1948, directedthat "a thorough study of costsand relevant data should be madeby the LIRR and the fixation ofjust and reasonable rates shouldbe deferred until this is done ,placed in evidence and scrutinizedby the staff of the commission."

The study has been reduced toexhibit form in six parts and com-prises a total of 254 pages. For along period of time, the work in-volved the services of as manyas 460 employes and the employ-ment of many new ones, the LIRRsaid.

Denis Would Condemn LineTwo more outraged Suffolk or-

ganizations on Tuesday went intoaction to block the Long IslandRail Road's latest grab at the com-muter 's pocket.

The Suffolk County Council ofDemocratic Clubs , showing con-siderable political acumen in awell-timed concern for the budgetsof commuting Suffolk voters, ap-pealed to Gov Dewey to condemnthe rickety railroad and set up apublic transit authority.

The Babylon Commuters As-sociation blasted the LIRR de-mand for a 32.5 per cent hike incommutation fares as an outrageand called for volunteers to carryon the fight.

In a telegram to the governor ,H Woodruff Bi.ssell, president ofthe Democratic council , repre-senting some 22 Suffolk Demo-cratic clubs , urged the appoint-ment of a committee to study thepossibility of creating a Long Is-land Transit Authority with theobjective of "expropriating therailroad and saving the onlymeans of commutation for thou-sands of citizens."

Bissell said Suffolk commutersare "already risking their livesdaily due to unspeakably inef-

ficient management" on the partof the LIRR.

He urged priority of the LIRRI problem over "any multi-million-dcllar expense for a through wayproject. "

The Babylon group, whosespokesman was publicity chair-man Leon J Kelly, pointed out thatif the railroad were to get its pro-posed fare raise, commutationrates would be almost double thoseof 1947.

"Commuters are asked to paytwice as much for a service alreadyknown to be the world's worst ,"declared Kelly. "Nor is the com-muter offered any new safeguardsagainst a repetition of the Rock-ville Centre disaster.

PSC Stops 'Curfew'In a unanimous decision , the

Public Service Commission onTuesday, June 6 told the Long Is-land Roil Road to stop ringingmidnight curfew on the five-dayrestricted tickets. The bankruptand blue-nosed railroad must al-low rides until 2 a m after mid-night on the f i f t h day.

It doesn 't quite transform theharassed LIRH "Cinderella" riderinto a princess . It does mean , how-ever , tha t a Friday evening on thetown, which may extend beyondmidnight , won 't cost the restricted-ticket commuter the price of one-way fare home.

Regardless of what the tickets'f i f th day may fall on , the orderholds good. However , Friday wastile chief concern of Stanley Sachs,the 25-year-old Lawrence commu-ter who desi gnated himself a one-man army against the Cinderellarule and bombarded the PSC with 'more than enough petitions to jfp^ce a hearing on the subject.
