Introducing Free Car Care Clinics. Because car care isn't for men only. It's for women too.
ARCO Car Care Clinics, administered by the League of Women Voters, are open to anyone-including men-over the age of sixteen.
These specially designed 2Y2 hour clinics will consist of an instructional slide show and important "hands on" practice in such basics as changing a tire, jump-starting a car, operating a self-serve pump, checking tire pressure and inspecting fluid levels.
You even get a kit of reference material to take home. Plus a free tire pressure gauge.
Remember, the League and participating independent ARCO dealers stress that a well-maintail ,~d car not only reduces gasoline consumption and conserves energy, but helps make our air cleaner.

ELSMERE
Zoning board dooms Burger King variance bids Bethlehem. which has the
fewest chain store outlets and fast-food franchises of .any Albany suburb. IS turning thumbs down on a proposed Burger King restaurant on its main business artery.
The town's board of appeals will offIcially deny the three zoning variances sought by the Buffalo-based restaurant chain for a site on Delaware Ave. when it cori-
, venes its regular meeting on June 4, The formal vote on that date will put to rest a controversy that has stirred neighbors and townspeople for the past seven months.
At its meeting last Wednesday, the five-member board voted unanimously to instruct board attorney Donald DeAngelis to draft resolutions denying all three variances. Last week's vote asking the board counsel to write Burger King's Elsmere obituary set the stage for the formal vote next week.
The action represents a long-sought victory for the cadre of citizens in the Plymouth Ave.-Euclid Ave, section of Elsmere who persistently voiced objections to the proposal for the fast-food restaurant on a wooded twoacre plot on Delaware Ave. between Delaware Plaza and the Roberts Real Estate office building, It also represents a defeat for two prominent Bethlehem landholders, contractor-builder Norris MacFarland of Slingerlands and State Sen, Howard Nolan of Albany, partners in the Delaware Plaza enterprise who
also own the controversial site eyed by Burger King,
The appeals board last week gave the applications a full-scale review before acting on the motion. Most of the discussion centered on the first variance request that would allow a restaurant in a CC-Commercial zone that normally accommodates such low-turnover businesses as libraries. schools. barber shops and professional offices. The other varIances requested were for a sign far larger than the maximum permitted by the zoning ordinance. and the use of a parking lot that would overlap a B-residential zone in the rear of the proposed building,
I n reviewing transcri pts from the four-hour public hearing, considerable weight was given traffic studies showing 72 accidents on Delaware Ave, from Plymouth Ave, to Carvel Ice Cream in the past year. Board member Orrin Barr said the congestion "would be severe there" if the restaurant were allowed access 1:0 Delaware Ave,
Board members also were skeptical of testimony by MacFarland that no buyers could be found for the property within its permitted uses. Members took into account that the property was purchased in 1974 In full knowledge of the restrictions on it, and pointed out that several businesses that would have been allowed in the CCCommercial zone have recently settled elsewhere on
Delaware Ave .. including banks and real estate firms.
The board discounted the argument that the restaurant would be a useful addition to' the community, which currently has restaurants within walking distance of Delaware Plaza, The quoted Martin Barr, 46 Euclid Ave,. from the hearing transcripts to illustrate- the adverse impact the restaurant would have to "destroy a wooded buffer zone" between commercial and residential areas. Barr pointed out that "there has been a transformation in accordance with the plan of the town."
The proposal got off to a rocky start last November when Bethlehem's sevenmember planning board,handicapped by a vacancy, couldn't agree on whether the application required a decision under the State Environmental Quality Review (SEQR) procedures, After several delays and unsuccessful attempts to break a 3-3 deadlock on that board, the motion bypassed the slate agency by default and moved to the appeals board,
VOORHEESVILLE
In a separate action,. the board moved to draft a resoI ution denying a variance that: would permit five four-unit apartment houses in Beacon Estates, a proposed sub~ divisi'on off ,Beacon Rd" Glenmont. The Bethlehem planning' board had earlier recommer,ded denial on the ground of residential density in the area.

Developer sues town on zoning
For the second time in six months. the town of Bethlehem has been named defendant in an Article 78 legal proceeding in a zoning action. the latest lawsuit was filed against the town '5 board of appeals by North Shore Equities, Inc., of Long Island, owner of a 7.8 acre tract in Glenmont proposed as a site for the Wood hill residential subdivision.
North Shore is taking the town to court in the wake of the appeals board's recent action denying a special exception to the zoning ord inance that would have permitted 15 four-unit buildings on the site off Feura Bush Rd. near the Bethlehem Center intersection. The suit contends the decision was "contrary to the law, contrary to the evidence arbitrary and capricious ...

tending that the board acted· improperly in rezoning the.· property the town owns next door at 125 Adams St..from CC-Commercial (light business) to C-Commercial (general commercial). George D. Cochran, whose wife, Mary, operates the business, argued the case himself when it was heard in State Supreme Court last Friday and won a twoweek delay over the objections of town attorney Bernard Kaplowitz. The litigation has stalled sale of the former "coffeehouse" structure to Nathaniel A.
. Boynton. editor-publisher of The Spotlight. as a newspaper office and plant.
In the latest suit, North Shore contends the proposed development is in harmony with the surrounding properties, is not a traffic hazard and "in every way" complies with zoning requirements for CC-Commercial, and A-Residential zones.
Regarding the proximity of the proposed Patterson Dr. access, which would impinge on properties owned by the Marshman and Clark families, the suit states that the location of the proposed road was known at the time both properties were purchased so that each "bought into" the hardship.
The proposal met with tremendous opposition from the neighborhood.

Neighbors quiet on garage bid
G.A. Steffens and Son. a business specializing In industrial boiler repair. is the latest prospective purchaser of town property at 70 Hudson Ave.. Delmar. The old sewer department garage. dormant since the Borst brothers were denied a variance to operate an auto body shop there. may be used as a warehouse. shop and office for a Delmar resident who has been operating from his home at 820 Delaware Ave. for many years.
The public hearing before the Bethlehem board of appeals 'on the variance' Steffens seeks drew none of the public outcry that greeted the Borst application. The business, according to Steffens. is a "low-key type of operation" with little or no noise. no odors and little traffic. "Most of the time there wouldn't be anybody there," Steffens said.

New phone center for 439 exchange
New York Telephone customers in the Delmar exchange will be served by an all-electronic switching center in mid-1981. making available a variety of new communications services.
Ground-breaking for a new central office at 330 Delaware Ave. is scheduled for 9 a.m. today (Thurday). Mary Jane Ellis, New York Telephone manager, said construction of the building will begin this summer. with completion expected in the fall. Then the switching unit, which is manufactured by Western Electric, will be installed.
The new central office will have 6,600 square feet of space inside its Heldeberg bluestone exterior, The site will be landscaped, with a parking area behind the building. The existing electromechanical switching office on Adams PI. near the new location will be removed after the new office is operating. Mrs. Ellis said.
Electronic switching will make available international direct distance dialing (lDDD) and four optional calling features. she noted.
Customers will be able to dial station-ta-station calls directly to many countries
overseas without assistance of an operator.
Four optional calling services will be available in the Delmar exchange, at extra charge. when the system is introduced. They are: • Call Waiting. which lets you know when someone is trying to reach you while you are already on the line; • Call Forwarding. which allows incoming calls to be automatically routed to another phone number~ • Three-Way Calling, which enables a third party to be added to a conversation already in progress, and • Speed Calling. which lets you reach frequently-dialed numbers by using just a few digits instead of the normal seven or ten.
New York T-elephone serves about 7.200 customers in the Delmar exchange. Mrs. Ellis said. School loot recovered
Bethlehem police are investigating the theft of a large quantity of supplies from the Glenmont Elementary School after recovering more than 75 pens. 40 erasers, 65 rulers, 45 pencils. pads, markers. notebooks, school shirts and school bags in a clump of woods behind the school. Police said two youths were spotted on the roof of the school at 7:25 p.m. Sunday. at which time detectives found several windows and two doors open.

This spring that same woman, Dorothy Whitney, was named an Outstanding Alumnae of the Russell Sage Evening Division. She and two fellow graduates were honored at a banquet held last month at the Turf I nn in Albany.
Everyone connected with the Clarksville Elementary School is proud of their principal and kindergarten teacher, a dual role Mrs. Whitney has held there for the past three years. Her competence as an educator is evident to pupils and parents alike. and thl;! entire school "family" is affected positively by her calm and kind administrative personality.
Mrs. Whitney hardly paused for breath ~hen she received her BA degree in 1973, after nine years, of evening courses. The following month, she started work on a master's degree at St. Rose College and two years later she had

undergraduate work, Mrs. Whitney somehow found the time and energy to hold a job besides doing her college studies and caring for that large family. From 1967 until 1974, she was on the faculty at the Sacred Heart School in Albany, first as a kindergarten teacher and then as reading coordinator.
In 1974. she came to the Bethlehem School District as a reading teacher, and began a period of traveling among the elementary schools to give special help in. reading to pupils who needed it. When the Clarksville principals hip became open in 1977-because the Slingerlands principal resigned and Dave M urphy was tapped to take over' that position-Mrs. Whitney was the logical candidate to assume it. She was already well-known to many Clarksville children and teachers, and well-equipped to teach kindergarten in addition to handling a principal's duties.
While serving the Bethlehem School District in this dual capacity-an assignment many administrators might find difficult. but which was taken in stride by this wellorganized woman- Mrs. Whitney has continued ,to take graduate courses to strengthen her administrative credentials.
"She has come full circle." said Mrs. Beth Flory. who was one of Mrs. Whitney's first teachers at Russell Sage
Dorothy Whitney is noted for her perpetual smile and unruffled calm. Here she is with kindergarten admirers Dana Histed of Unionville and Danny Hornick of Clatksville,
and one of those who nominated her for the Outstanding Alumnae Award. "She began as a first-year student here, and this fall she'll be teaching a reading course for

This is about my friends. . Ruth and Bob Kirkman. 'owners of the unique and
much-loved Country Corner- at Borthwick and Delaware Aves', We did a column on them. our -very first, two years ago. We told then of
. their personal qualit)1 and talent in merchandisi~g. in selectivity so -that their stock is always attractive. and we spoke of their humanity: children buying penny candy .receiving the same attention '-as a dowager buying an antique. Their windows have always reflected their own special talent: warm, interesting windows showing their "wares" with dignity and appropriateness.
N ow the Country Corner has closed its doors in Delmar beea use a lease has come to an end. But the good news is that the Country Corner will reopen Aug. I in Clifton Park in a delightful old inn. The stock has all gone 'there now, and this weekend Ruth and Bob Kirkman will turn the key in the lock at their shop in Delmar. But they plan to open so~n a showcase for their many fine antiques at another site and their fans will find them at antique shows with their handsome pieces of
furniture and accessories of yesteryear.
Everyone who knows Ruth Kirkman knows her endearing talent for putting people in touch. She has done it agam for she has encouraged another talented woman. Marcia Waldbillig. who had the shop called The Creative Hands at the Four Corners. Marcia (now Mrs. John Ray and a resident of Clifton Park) will continue. the same Country Corner and will be assisted byR uth • Kirkman in getting that shop established. It is Marcia's hope to have a tearoom adjacent to her Country COTner shop and' to open it Aug. I.
So. this column tips its imaginative hat to two wonderful people-Ruth and Bob Kirkman. We wish them well in their new specialization and we thank them for having given the Tri-Village a wonderful shop. We look forward to visiting the new Country Corner in Clifton Park and to its continued successl

Now he runs about 10 miles a day. starting at his school in the lati:! afternoon and following a route through the outskirts of Slingerlands and Delmar and back to the school in about an hour.
Mid'-way through his training program. Joe developed a knee problem which was caused. a doctor told him. by running too far too fast. He says now he was p~obably a bit over-eager, and that runners should add no' more than 10 percent to their distance each week to avoid strain and Injury.
This spring Joe organized the Bethlehem Running Club. which meets at Hamagrael School on Wednesdays at 6 p.m. and Saturdays at 9 a.m. A Hamagrael parent. Jane Hall. helped him recruit members. and ahout 40 people are now participating. including some children.

Besides gaining ground on his goal of seeing Boston from the middle of its streets, Joe Schaefer feels his running regimen has made him "happier and healthier." He calls his daily run a "'mental health" break, a time when he can clear his mind and think about things other than routine, job-related concerns.

He hopes, too, that Hamagraei pupils may realize from his example that it's satisfying to set a worthwhile goal-and then work hard to achieve it.

The young Eagles were given little chance for the crown against such powers as Shenendehowa. unbeaten Suburban Council champions. and Niskayuna. three-time Sectional title holders. but the experience will help next year.
John Matuszek and Brian Segel. seniors. along with sophomores Jeff Goodman and Alex Macario and junior Scott Rukwid will represent Be in the singles. with Jim Lenden-Mike Cole and Tim Talmage-Dave Reusswig or Charlie Marden-Joe Curl in the doubles. Despite the holiday, the Eagles had two full-scale practice sessions over the weekend. with Ackerman still undecided on his No. 2 doubles team. Cole. Talmage and Marden are freshman. which means at least two will be in the shootout at Albany State.
The Eagles swept Burnt Hills. 9-0. to end their league season in third place at 9-3. a good cut better than last year's 6-6.

It was a fun week at Plaza For several years the Spot
light has been trying with very little success to find high school students interested in becoming part-time newspaper reporters. LasT week a Bethlehem Central junior brought in an unsoliciIed manuscript. The editor not only found it interesting enough to print. but is encouraged by the discovery he may have a high school reporter next year. There are still openings for others interested.
··Fun Days" arrived in the area last Tuesday for a week of honkeytonk enjoyment. Sponsored by Robert Kellog's Amusements, Inc., the traveling carnival made its way annual appearance in Bethlehem for the week of May 20-27. Delaware Plaza was its fourth stop on a 20-week circuit of area shopping malls. So far this spring, it has visited Saratoga, Glens Falls and Mechanicville before coming to Elsmere.
The fair featured many attractions. including a carousel. ferris wheel. refreshment stand and several booths. Most of its patrons are the children who flock there after school lets out every day. The rides do not shut down until the last youngsters have left. the cot,ton-candy smiles still lingering on their faces. Then. the employees lock up for the night and return to their homes in Stillwater. The workers commute to each temporary location from April until August. receiving a salary of $100 a week during carnival season and living on unemployment checks for the remainder of the year.
Surprisingly, paying the help is not the'main expense the management must meet. The largest cost is that of powering the huge generator which provides electricity for the entire operation, The Kellog corp. must also pay for
transportation. concessions and prizes.
The carnival drew business to the shopping center. ·In return. many stores promoted it by giving away free tickets worth a IO-cent discount on any ride.
The fun fair's visit to Delmar lasted longer than its usual three or four-day stretch. Tuesday, it concluded its seven-day stay in the Plaza parking lot, loaded all the equipment ol).to five trucks, and moved on to the next stop on the tour, Broadalbin.
