The zoning appeal board has denied a certificate of occupancy for Joseph Grippen, operator of the Barclay Meat and Poultry company, 349 Laurel avenue, but has recommended a six-month period for the proprietor to find a new location, it was learned last night.

The disclosure was made at the township committee meeting after former Township Clerk George Garon, Laurel avenue, asked why there was a delay in the appeal board's decision following a hearing Thursday night of last week. The committee, by 5-0, agreed to allow Mr. Grippen" to remain in his present business building, which is a residential zone, until Dec. 1. Morton C.

Steinberg, counsel for Mr. Grippen, said the firm is negotiating for a new location and agreed not to appeal tat higher courts. The Barciay matter has been in the courts more than two years and Mr. Grippen has been fined $50 as a zoning code violator. Township Clerk Stanley E.

Brower said the decision was delayed because he was instructed not to make it public until Solicitor Milton Miller had approved its legality. Mr. Miller at the same time disclosed the appeal board turned down an application for permission to build a supermarket at Madison avenue and County Line road by Joseph N. Hertz, Arden-wood avenue. The chamber of commerce protested the application at the hearing.

FiveMunicipalities To Vote on School (Press Teletype) COLTS NECK. Referendums will be conducted within 60 days in five municipalities on a plan for construction of a $1,400,000 regional high school. The Atlantic township board of education last night became the fifth and final municipality to endorse such a vote. Previously approval had been given by Shrewsbury boro and township, Little Silver and Red Bank. Referendums will be conducted simultaneously in all towns and the resolution adopted here last night set the vote for not sooner than 30 days nor later than 60 days after May 10.

No site has been considered for the school but it is anticipated It would be centrally located for all of the municipalities if referendums pass in those communities. Support of all is needed to cover the cost of the school, supporters of the plan contend. Student in the municipalities involved presently attend the overcrowded Red Bank high school. Costs of the school would be prorated according to the number of pupils in the various municipal ities. The Atlantic township board last night also inspected plans for an addition of three rooms and a cafe teria at the elementary school here.

Pate, supervising principal, reported that the school at Fort Hancock, where the Army is relinquishing its base, will be closed by June 30. and all equipment in the building will be returned to the board of education warehouse.

School Plan Discussed KEYPORT. Mayor Charles E. Applegate and members of boro council met with the board of education at the high school last night to discuss financial aspects of the board's proposal for alleviating crowded school conditions. Board members explained their plans for a $400,000 addition to the high school, which would be made from a four-year senior high school into a six-year junior and senior high. The additional grades would allow for the transfer of seventh and eighth grades from the grammar school into the high school building, providing more classrooms for the increasing grammar school enrolment.

The discussion centered around the financial burden such a plan would put on the boro, and how it would affect its borrowing capacity.

Transportation Act Signed by Driscoll TRENTON.

(JP) New Jersey had a new law today tightening state regulations for the transportation of dangerous substances on its highways. Altho signed by Governor Dris coll yesterday, the legislation setting up the new requirements does not go into full effect until July 1. The measure was an outgrowth of the explosion of transported materials in the Holland tunnel a year ago. The new law provides stiff penal ties for those transporting such substances as compressed gases, flammable liquids or solids, and radioactive materials in a manner endangering lives of others. It also requires the marking of vehicles hauling such substances.

Violations of the law resulting in the death or injury of any person or more than $5,000 damage to property sjiall be punishable by jail sentences up to seven years and fines up to $2,000. Lesser violators are subject to fines up to $1,000 and jail sentences up to six months. Pasture Fencing Gootl Management FREEHOLD. Fencing accord ing to a careful dan ndds r-nmzit- erable flexibility to pasture man agement, notes County Agent M. A.

Clark. Electric fence not only is easily installed, but it's readily moved for rotating pastures, clipping them and making hay, he points out. Even a temporary fence has to be used with care, tho. For example, cattle will follow a fence line and if it runs up and down hill, the path they clear can develop into later erosion and gullies. Fence is useful in protecting the woodlot.

Woodland pasture doesn't amount to much anyway, but cows roaming in it often ruin timber possibilities by killing out Mr. Clark suggests fencing out all but enough trees to provide shade. -Local- Happenings Mr. and Mrs. Allyn K.

Driscoll Hits Democrats At the G.O.P. convention wind-up, Governor Driscoll lashed out at the national Democratic administration and accused state Democrats of reaching back into the files and resurrecting an old platform "with tongue in cheek." The Democratic platform, in turn, condemned Driscoll's administration in New Jersey for: "The scandals which resulted from the Burlington bridge deals, the building of private jetties for the benefit of high Republican officials, the unconscionable profits paid to brokers out of the disability benefits fund, the patronage grab of the Sandy Hook state park project, and the unprecedented issuance of bonds by a turnpike authority without public notice or competitive bidding." The Democratic platform charged that the state G.O.P. administration failed to carry out "the mandate of the constitutional convention to permit the people to decide whether or not bingo should be legalized for the benefit of religious, charitable and veterans' organizations." The G.O.P.

platform was presented to the convention by Albert L. Vreeland, East Orange, of the platform drafting committee and Congressional candidate from the eleventh district. He said the text could be enlarged upon as "the sec-tioinal interests of the 14 congressional candidates dictated." Holdup (Continued From Page I) local police searched the building.
