The fire, fanned by ocean breezes, spread quickly V ad jacent shops, to the bungalows, and to the boardwalk. Firemen using axes and electric saws cut through the boardwalk at Beach 28th and 29th streets to halt the spreading flames. As the frame buildings caught fire, additional alarms were sounded in rapid succession bringing more than 25 pieces of apparatus and more than 150 men, including Rescue Company 4 from Elmhurst and a super- pumper from Manhattan.

This message was issued this week by John Kimball, commis- sioner, Rdckaw.ay District Boy Scouts,,' The problem is, said Kimball, that many boys in the district for whom arrangements have been made for going to Boy Scout camps this summer are unable to plan on going because they either have no uniforms or no changes of uniform. Furthermore, the rules do not permit going without uniforms. Collecting the apparel and equipment, he noted, are Alfred Beattio 538 Beach 130th street, Belle Harbor and Henry Cohn, 11-38 Foam place, Far Rockaway.

This work, according to TBTA plans, will Involve closing half the booths while hew ones are made and then closing the other half of the old ones and using the new ones. The westerly booths will be closed first, sometime after La- bor Day, Schoepfer said. Comparisons with 1936, when the Marine parkway bridge was constructed, are difficult, but pre- sent conjecture would put the now Cross Bay Bridge at some- where near twice the cost of the bridge at Rockaway Point. This figure is reached by doubl- ing the actual cost of the Marine parkway bridge - about $6,128,- 000 and guessing at what the total cost of contracts will be for the new bridge. The biggest contract of the new bridge is the superstructure, which comes to $16,518,120. Sec- ond biggest is the foundation now being built, at $3,920,439.50;. The new bridge is the biggest such • construction ever under*: taken in the Rockaway area. P On the site in charge of all construction is Ernest G. Olson', resident engineer.

Posner on Mayor John V. Lindsay. If It were ; not for Lindsay's opposition, this bill would be in the hands of the Governor, he told The Wave this week, it was ^iMpod. months ago by the As sembly. ji.aii.cr in!the week, there were 'poits thi(t Posner has been inking Lindsay to withdraw his opposition. However, as -ar as is known, there has been no an- ,wer to this request, not even u statement that the request was leceived. For proof that. Mayor Lindsay is responsible for the action (non-action) in the Senate, Pos- ner stated that a communication from Anthrjny P. Savarese, leg- islative representative of the City of New York, circulated in the Legislature recommends de- feat of the bill. Posner Gives Impressions This communication, said Pos- ner, repeats arguments repeated again and again by the Transit Authority, some of proved time and again a» grossly inaccurate, and is so worded that it holds out the Rockaway subway's double fare as the key to the TA balancing its budget, holding the fare liife in the rest of the City and oven the balance be- tween need and non need for state subsidy of the system. In the meantime, after waiting eight weekfc, the Rockaway Cit- izen Committee 'for a Single Pare is asking for an immediate date with William J- Ronan, chairman of the Metropolitan Transporta- tion Authority. Jack G. Braunstein, committee chairman, and Raymond Samoro- din, a member, saw Edward M. Kresky, MTA secretary, on March 15 and were told they would hear from Ronan in a "rea- sonable period of time." "The committee feels a 'rea- sonable period' has expired," Braunstein said. HULT SUGGESTED AS SCHOOL NAME John J. Fetschcr, president of the Hammel Holland Seaside Civ- ic Association, has suggested Eugene E. Hult as the name for the high school to' be built in Rockaway, Hult, commissioner of public works, died this month. In a lettfr last week to Ber- nard Donovan, superintendent of schools, Petscher said: "We wero all saddened by the death of EUgene E. Hult, whose life was dedicated to the educa- tion of the children of Nesv York... "We bclUjve that the Board of Education owes much to Eugene E. Hult and that he should be honored by having the Beach Channel School named for him." SENIORiCITiZENS SEEK B. 14TH ST.

Used Boy Scout Uniforms Needed
Used Boy Scout, and- Cub Scout uniforms and equipment are poeded, urgently.
This message was issued this week by John Kimball, commissioner, Rdckaw.ay District Boy Scouts,,'
The problem is, said Kimball, that many boys in the district for whom arrangements have been made for going to Boy Scout camps this summer are unable to plan on going because they either have no uniforms or no changes of uniform.
Furthermore, the rules do not permit going without uniforms.
Collecting the apparel and equipment, he noted, are Alfred Beattio 538 Beach 130th street, Belle Harbor and Henry Cohn, 11-38 Foam place, Far Rockaway.

the foundation contract. Vacar Construction; expects that Its work will be' completed late in superstructure contract and not the year.
In the meantime, it also is expected, work on the toll booths will be underway.
This work, according to TBTA plans, will Involve closing half the booths while hew ones are made and then closing the other half of the old ones and using the new ones.
The westerly booths will be closed first, sometime after Labor Day, Schoepfer said.
Comparisons with 1936, when the Marine parkway bridge was constructed, are difficult, but present conjecture would put the now Cross Bay Bridge a t somewhere near twice the cost of the bridge at Rockaway Point.
This figure is reached by doubling the actual cost of the Marine parkway bridge - about $6,128,-000 and guessing a t what the total cost of contracts will be for the new bridge.
The biggest contract of the new bridge is the superstructure, which comes to $16,518,120. Second biggest is the foundation now being built, at $3,920,439.50;.
The new bridge is the biggest such • construction ever under*: taken in the Rockaway area. P
On the site in charge of all construction is Ernest G. Olson', resident engineer.

REQUEST
Blames Lindsay
For Double Fare 'Puri blame for bottling a one-
fare" bill lift', the State Senate in committee has been l a i d by As .icmblymsin 1 Herbert A. Posner on Mayor John V. Lindsay.
If It were ; not for Lindsay's opposition, this bill would be in the hands of the Governor, he told The Wave this week, i t was
iMpod. months ago by the As sembly.
ji.aii.cr in!the week, there were 'poits thi(t Posner has been
inking Lindsay to withdraw his opposition. However, as -ar as is known, there has been no an-,wer to this request, not even u statement that the request was leceived.
For proof that. Mayor Lindsay is responsible for the action (non-action) in the Senate, Posner stated that a communication from Anthrjny P. Savarese, legislative representative of the City of New York, circulated in the Legislature recommends defeat of the bill.
Posner Gives Impressions This communication, said Pos
ner, repeats arguments repeated again and again by the Transit Authority, some of proved time and again a» grossly inaccurate, and is so worded that it holds out the Rockaway subway's double fare as the key to the TA balancing its budget, holding the fare liife in the rest of the City and oven the balance between need and non need for state subsidy of the system.
In the meantime, after waiting eight weekfc, the Rockaway Citizen Committee 'for a Single Pare is asking for an immediate date with William J- Ronan, chairman of the Metropolitan Transportation Authority.
Jack G. Braunstein, committee chairman, and Raymond Samoro-din, a member, saw Edward M. K r e s k y , MTA secretary, on March 15 and were told they would hear from Ronan in a "reasonable period of time."
"The committee feels a 'reasonable period' has expired," Braunstein said.
