Fourth of July celebrants in the vicinity nearly caused a tragedy in the Boris M. Spivack residence at 81 Handsome Avenue late Monday nlsrht.

A split second after a loud explosion rocked the neighborhood a one-inch pipe fitting roared through a screen in the rear porch of the Spivack house, pierced a window on the opposite end of the porch, traveled the length of the dining room and ripped into a bedroom door Jamb. It traveled a foot above a baby's crib in the dining room and struck the jamb with such force that it made, a deep imprint in the wood.

Police, who were summoned to the scene, were tinable to solve the mystery. It is believed that the fitting was blasted loose from a length of pipe filled with gunpowder with a fuse attached and that the dangerous weapon was lighted atop a tabic in a neigh­bor's b a c k y a r d by prowling youths. Police questioned voun esters. .

A short while before a .32 calibre bullet pierced a window in a Williams residence at Third Avenue, in Bayport and landed on the window sill. Police-sMd it had been discharged a considerable distance away.
