Wolla nnd VTalse ' r ol, jHsy, S hor«, counsel for the lon g island State Bank and Trust Company of Riverhead, who are exe- cutors of the estate. Fowler, in a re- arrangement on a show cause order directed against the contestants, con- tended that the notice of appeal for a change of venue sought by the objec- , tors to the will was not the type of j order that would sustain a stay in th? [ proceedings to probate the will or ad- I minister the estate , j Judge Pelletreau. agreeing with At- Itorney Fowler , s tated that In his opin - ion the Appellate Division would not sustain the contentions of the con- testants and that he. was unable , to find any record in the Surrogate ' s [Court of a change of venue ever be- | ing granted in a will contest . The ' court then rendered the trial of issues to proceed. I Attorney Fowler opened the trial bv moving to dismiss the objections to j probation of , the will. The motion ( wns granted.

The placements are in ac- cordance with the recommendation of the Savville board of fire commission- ers. At the same time a communication was received from the' south Bay Con- solidated Water Co.. Inc., showing the proposed tie-up be'ween the existing eight-inch water main on Railroad avenue and the present six-inch main on Greene avenue In Sayville. This work had been recommended by the Sayvllle fire commissioners on the ground that the present water main comes to a dead end at the north end of Greene avenue. Under the water company ' s plans , 335 feet of the six- inch main would be laid northerly on Greene avenue and 450 feet of six-inch main easterly on Railroad street, tying in with the present main on Railroad avenue. At the same lime a steamer type hydrant would be installed near the corner of Greene avenue and Rail- roa d street. The cost of the work was esti mated at S981.25. Town Clerk Louis Holtje said that Joseph P. West, one of the local fire comlssioners , had informed him that if it were a choice between the two . . the commissioners prcfererd to have the rtcamer hydrants placed first. The cost of the latter is $250 each, and $10, 000 is expended each year by the water company for the replacement of existing fire plugs with those of the steamer type , Ihe work being divided ' : equally among Ihe various fire dis- t ricts. It was pointed out that Mon- day ' s request was the first that Say- i vllle has made lor the steamer type hydrants, with the exception of one which was ordered installed at. the ' . corner of Main street and Greene ave- nue. Mr. Holtje said that he had not yet figured out the allotments of new ; hydrants which each district is entitled 'to at the present time, and it was sug- gested that, if S ayville ' s share Is snf- : ficlently large, the tie-up of the Greene avenue main with the one on Railroad avenue be authorized in addition to t he placing ol the eight steamer hy- dra nts. Action on the tie-in was held in abeyance , pending Mr. Holtje ' s re- port on the amount of work which Sayville is entitled to. Mr. Holtje reported that he had re- cei ved a call from the Sayville. office , of the Long Island Lighting Company with regard to the board' s recent au- thorization of the placing of one street light at the corner ot Bilimorc avenue, and Connetquot avenue and one at the corner " of Woodlawn avenue and Con netquot drive, Idle-hour. Mr. Holtje !sald he had been informed that the ' distance from the nearest pole to llu 1 ¦ location at which the lights had bnnn | ordered placed was in each Instance greater than the required distance for l one light , and that two lights would have to be ordered In each case , or fou r all together. The board ordered the four lights. i That the reports in metropolitan newspapers to the effect that the re- cent fire in the Islip town incinerator hud caused damage of approximate!!' . $60,000 were , like the story ot Mark Twain 's death, slightly exaggerated ' wa s shown on Monday night when bids were opened for the repairing of the ' damage done. The contract for the , work was awarded to tho low bidder , ' the Weyauwcga Concrete Co. of Brightwaters. whose figure was $156, Other bidders were Ambrose J. ! Shaughncssy, of Buy Shore . $250, nnd ! George Clark, of Bay Shore , $213.65. | No meeting of the board will be held next Monday evening, in that Ihe 26th Is the legal celebration of Christmas I Day. Incid entally, the town board a> [a group received a Christmas card this year , nnd its messag e was read at Monday ' s m eeting by the town clerk. The board also voted, on Justice Fred- erick W. Walker ' s motion to extend the greetings of the season to the people of t he town of Islip. The meeting wns presided over by Justice of the Peace Arthur G. Grif- fiths , senior mem ber of the board , In tho absence of Supervisor Carleton E. Brewster, Sr. Tho only person a pres- ent beside the board members ,wcro the six reporters who cover the meet- in gs for their various papers—not a single other spectator.

Collins , when questioned by Tho News this morning would neither affirm nor den y the current report that ho has tendered his resignation to Mr. Collins . Mr, Plnchln declined to comment on th e matter. Dlbbs—"Have you homi one of those Instrument* which can toll when a man Is lying?'" Hlggs—" See onul I married one ."

Asks Disappointed Epicure That there arc people who believe that Blue Point oysters come from Blue Poin t and arc produced there on a large scale was proved a few days ago when a large sedan , driven by a chauf- f eur, came to that neighboring village so that its occupants could get'some real Blue Point oysters. The . car was driven down along the water front sev- eral times but none of those in the car could spy any oyster houses so the car. started back towards the village. A group of highway department em- ployees was working along the road and the car pulled up at that point. An important looking man opened the door nnd got out to inquire where ' the Blue Point oyster sheds were and was in- formed that there are no oyster sheds S. THORNHILL DIED YESTERDAY Cci clnuc 1 rom page one letic career was cut short by a serious injury to one of his legs in an auto- mobile-collision about a dozen years ago, for which he was at 'that time absolved from all blame. That put an end to his careri as a track -athlete but he always maintained a- lively in- terest in golf and was one of the best known of the local participants in thai sport, iln which ho won a . number of handsome trophies. \ Ea rly in life lie developed a keen in- teres t in the the n new and fascinat- ing radio invention and he showed considerable ingenuity and cleverness in constructing radio sets and eventu- ally became an exp°rt amateur oper- ator. He finally turned his skill to practical account by becoming a shi p' s radio operator and in that capacity made a number of long voyage s , in oni" of which he circled the globe. Always modest , unassuming and courteous, he was well liked and of enemies he had none. He is survived by his mother and a younger brother. Robert, who is an atto rney in Neu York City. The fu- neral is to take place on Sunday nt 2 p. m, in the Congregational Church, f ollowed by interment m St. Ann' s Ce metery. TOWN TALK Mrs. Walter T.

Joe. who completed a successful footoall season, is captain of the academy basketball team and is making a record for him- self . In Blue Point. He looked doubtful at this statement and Inquired if the man was sure of his facts and was informed that he was. The gentleman insisted that he want- ed Blue Point oysters and surely they must come from Blue Point an0 just as surely there must toe some plant there where he could obtain the real aristo- crat of the oyster world. Finally he came to the realization that Blue Point was still existent but that the Blue Point oyster came from several places around here and. as fo r commercial handling, came . mostly from West Say- vllle at the present time. He drove off , apparently a bit crestfallen to think that he couldn 't get a Blue Point oyster in Blue Point. RED " OAKLEY HURT Popular South Shore Baseball Star Is I njured in Rocky Point Crash Clarence "Red" Oakley, of Bay Shore , a foreman of the line depart- ment of the New York Telephone Com- pa ny, was seriously injured on Friday morning when his car overturned on the North Country road near Rocky Point.

JU LIUS GROSS DIES IN BLAZE Continued from page one The store part of the building was leased by Peler Wehr , of Huntington Station, and Wehr had given permis- sion to Gross, wh o had lived by himself for the 32 years he had been a resident of Brentwood, to sleep in the rear room, as Oross had no permanent home. The apartment directly over the store nui ' occupied by Mr. and Mrs. Edward Sonderllng and their six- year-old-son , Marvin. Shortly after 1 o' ciock Mr. and Mrs. Sonderllng were awakened by an ex- plosion nnd- a scream Irom below. In- vestigating, they found the lower rear part of the building ablaze and Mr. Sonderllng turned in the Are alarm and then brought his family to safety from th e building, which adjoins the fire house. All other occupants of the building al so fled to safety. About that time John Wicks, of Baldwin Boulevard. Brightwaters, a member ol Fiynn ' s Patrol, accompani- ed by John L. Grobe, of 120 East Main street. Bay Shore, happened to be pass- ing and noticed the fire. They broke open the front door of the store and stumbled over the body of Gross lying near the entrance , where he had ap- parently fallen while attempting to flee from the building. They removed Gross to the Fire House. He was bad- ly burned about the face , head , hands and abdomen , and was pronounced dead by Dr. M. W. Molinoff . who was called by the firemen. in the m eantime Fire Chief Theo- dore Frcund , realizing the seriousness of the situation, called for aid from the Central Islip and Bay Shore Fire De- partments, both of which responded and aided in keeping the blaze confin- ed to the rear part of the store. Post- master Nicholas Reilly was called and stood guard over the post office part of the building. Nothing was damaged there , and the flow , of Christmas mall continued uninterrupted the following morning. Members of the Bay Shore State Police station started an immediate investigation. Lieut. John A. Gaffncy on Tuesday slated that it was his be- lief that Gross had poured kerosene on a coa l fire in a heating stove in the rear of the store when he became cold during the night, and that he was burned by the resultant explosion. The extent of the damage to the building has not yet been determined, but Miss ¦ Nolan reported that she carried $3, 000 In surance on the structure. Gross broke his ties with his family, members of which still live here, 32 years ago ana s ince that time had resided in Brentwood. At an inquest held on Tuesday morn- ing Coroner Graver A.

near its junction with the Montaukhighway; one on the South road nearFoster avenue: one on Greene avenue;it the school house, and one on tlT>south side of Main street on Candceavenue. The placements are in ac-cordance with the recommendation ofthe Savville board of fire commission-ers.

At the same time a communicationwas received from the'south Bay Con-solidated Water Co.. Inc., showing theproposed tie-up be'ween the existingeight-inch water main on Railroadavenue and the present six-inch mainon Greene avenue In Sayville. Thiswork had been recommended by theSayvllle fire commissioners on theground that the present water maincomes to a dead end at the north endof Greene avenue. Under the watercompany 's plans, 335 feet of the six-inch main would be laid northerly onGreene avenue and 450 feet of six-inchmain easterly on Railroad street, tyingin with the present main on Railroadavenue. At the same lime a steamertype hydrant would be installed nearthe corner of Greene avenue and Rail-roa d street. The cost of the work wasestimated at S981.25.

Town Clerk Louis Holtje said thatJoseph P. West, one of the local firecomlssioners, had informed him thatif it were a choice between the two.

. the commissioners prcfererd to havethe rtcamer hydrants placed first. Thecost of the latter is $250 each, and$10,000 is expended each year by thewater company for the replacement ofexisting fire plugs with those of thesteamer type , Ihe work being divided

': equally among Ihe various fire dis-tricts. It was pointed out that Mon-day's request was the first that Say-

i vllle has made lor the steamer typehydrants, with the exception of onewhich was ordered installed at. the

'. corner of Main street and Greene ave-nue. Mr. Holtje said that he had notyet figured out the allotments of new

; hydrants which each district is entitled' to at the present time, and it was sug-gested that, if Sayville's share Is snf-: ficlently large, the tie-up of the Greeneavenue main with the one on Railroadavenue be authorized in addition tot he placing ol the eight steamer hy-dra nts. Action on the tie-in was heldin abeyance, pending Mr. Holtje's re-port on the amount of work whichSayville is entitled to.

Mr. Holtje reported that he had re-ceived a call from the Sayville. office,of the Long Island Lighting Companywith regard to the board's recent au-thorization of the placing of one streetlight at the corner ot Bilimorc avenue,and Connetquot avenue and one atthe corner" of Woodlawn avenue andConnetquot drive, Idle-hour. Mr. Holtje

!sald he had been informed that the' distance from the nearest pole to llu1¦location at which the lights had bnnn| ordered placed was in each Instancegreater than the required distance for

l one light , and that two lights wouldhave to be ordered In each case , orfou r all together. The board orderedthe four lights.

i That the reports in metropolitannewspapers to the effect that the re-cent fire in the Islip town incineratorhud caused damage of approximate!!'

. $60,000 were , like the story ot MarkTwain 's death, slightly exaggerated

What ! No Blue Points in BluePoint? Asks Disappointed Epicure

That there arc people who believethat Blue Point oysters come from BluePoint and arc produced there on alarge scale was proved a few days agowhen a large sedan , driven by a chauf-feur, came to that neighboring villageso that its occupants could get'somereal Blue Point oysters. The . car wasdriven down along the water front sev-eral times but none of those in the carcould spy any oyster houses so the car.started back towards the village.

A group of highway department em-ployees was working along the road andthe car pulled up at that point. Animportant looking man opened the doornnd got out to inquire where 'the BluePoint oyster sheds were and was in-formed that there are no oyster sheds

The gentleman insisted that he want-ed Blue Point oysters and surely theymust come from Blue Point an0 just assurely there must toe some plant therewhere he could obtain the real aristo-crat of the oyster world.

Continued from page one

The store part of the building wasleased by Peler Wehr , of HuntingtonStation, and Wehr had given permis-sion to Gross, who had lived by himselffor the 32 years he had been a residentof Brentwood, to sleep in the rearroom, as Oross had no permanenthome. The apartment directly overthe store nui' occupied by Mr. andMrs. Edward Sonderllng and their six-year-old-son , Marvin.

Shortly after 1 o'ciock Mr. and Mrs.Sonderllng were awakened by an ex-plosion nnd- a scream Irom below. In-vestigating, they found the lower rearpart of the building ablaze and Mr.Sonderllng turned in the Are alarmand then brought his family to safetyfrom the building, which adjoins thefire house.
