(Press Photo) NEW YORK Alice Crimmins goes on trial today for the second time in connection with the donths nf her two children more than five years, ago. She is charged with murdering her son, Edmund 5, and with manslaughter in the strangling of her daughter, 4 year-old Alice "Missy" Crimmins. Mrs.

Crimmins was convicted on the manslaughter charge and sentenced to a 5-to-20-year term in 19G8, but the conviction was overturned because of an unauthorized visit during the trial to Mrs. Crimmins' neighborhood by three jurors. The 1968 trial was spiced with stories of Mrs. Crimmins' alleged extramarital sex escapades. Public interest in the trial was so high that crowds fought for seats In the courtroom.

Since her children died on July 13, 1965, Mrs. Crimmins has spent three months behind bars. She has been divorced from her husband, from whom she had been separated but was reconciled at the time of the first trial. And she has been declared destitute by the state Supreme Court in Queens that will try her case. Mrs.

Crimmins testified at her trial that she fed the children about 7:30 the night they vanished, and put them to bed. At about midnight she looked in on them and latched the door to their room. Alice's body was discovered the next day. Five days later, Edmund's was found). The defense contended that an unknown individual, probably a sex deviant, killed the children.

The prosecution argued that the bedroom window opening was too small and questioned why dust on furniture near the window was undisturbed. Two key prosecution witnesses were Joseph Rorech, a former bo-friend of the defend-tant, and her neighbor, Sophia Earomirski. Rorech testified that Mrs. Crimmins had admitted to him that she killed the girl.

(AP) GI Clubs Inquiry Scope Spreading Budget Set At $50,000 For Center RED BANK Members of the Community Center board of directors were hosts at a reception yesterday to report on the center's finances and to outline goals for the coming year. Center resources this year are just over $50,000. Of that amount, the Borough Council contributed the county Board of Freeholders gave $3,000 was left in surplus funds from 1970, and $23,280 was raised in the 1970 center fund raising campaign. Victor Ransom, president of the board, noted it was originally hoped the center would have $68,000 this year. "We got about 75 per cent of what we wanted, but 25 per cent more than we had last year," Mr.

Ransom said "We're looking forward to a rich, full year." Mrs. Alice Parker, chairman of the fund raising campaign, reported on how the drive, the first undertaken, was conducted. The campaign target was $50,000. Thomas Carter, executive director, said the center hopes to hire a fulltime program director this year to increase recreational facilities for youths. He also said it is hoped that a summer day camp will be available for the younger children; to correspond with the playschool for preschool children.

Mr. Carter said the center also will provide employment counseling and placement in the near future. Mayor Daniel O'Hern was present at the reception, and said he was "very gratified" with the work of the center, and the financial aid from nearby communities. The Rev. Earl D.

Mrs. Earomirski, testified she was looking out her window the night of July 13 and saw a woman, a man and a little boy get into a car. The woman, she said, was holding the boy by one band and in her other hand carried a bundle. The man and boy were not identified, but Mrs. Earomirski said the woman was Mrs.

Crimmins. The prosecution maintains the boy was Edmund and the bundle, the body of Alice. During the trial, the state alleged that Mrs. Crimmins motive was her desire to keep her estranged husband from getting the children in a custody suit then pending. In the trial beginning today the prosecution is expected to rely on scientific evidence that several jurors in the first trial said they considered decisive.

According to testimony by the medical examiner's office, the girl died about two at the most three hours after she ate, in contradiction to Mrs. Crimmins's account that she fed the children at 7:30 and checked on them at midnight. It was only last July that she was charged with the murder of Edmund Jr. Investigators had said the boy's body was too deteriorated to determine the cause of death. by reaching from the college population into many other social and age levels."

A policeman was killed in Silver Springs, when a fellow officer's gun discharged during a struggle with a kidnap suspect. Philadelphia Police Commissioner Joseph F. O'Neill made his charge at a news conference last night during which he identified two teen-agers who were arrested in one slaying. He said Anthony Hogan, 15, and Marvin Bullock, 18, both of Philadelphia were charged with murder in the Saturday night killing of Patrolman John McEntee who was felled by two shots in the back of thf neck.

McEntee, 25, was slain as he sat in his patrol car writing a report. Five hours later patrolman Joseph Kelly, 45. was found dead in lu's patrol car. He had been shot twice with his own gun. The McEntee kiling occurred in North Philadelphia.

Kelly was slain about five miles west in a sparsely populated part of the Roxborough section. Investigators said Kelly had forced a car to the side of the road and walked up to the vehicle. There was no explanation of how he lost his gun, but a trail of blood showed he had staggered back to his car to try and radio for help. "Surely the sight of people deliberately attempting to polarize opposition to our police force, and especially some people who call themselves community leaders must assume part of the blame for these killings," O'Neill said. "Directly or indirectly these citizens are promoting anarchy and a complete disregard for the law." In St.

John, Marshal James Larimer, 60, and Trooper John Streu, 25, were killed Saturday in a shootout with two men found sleeping in a parked car behind a school building. Police said Streu was shot in the back with a small caliber pistol and Larimer killed with Streu's service revolver. In Greenville, S.C, officers W. F. Chasteen and B.

A. Woodall responded to a disturbance call and found a mother and teen-age girl with gunshot wounds. A short distance away they encountered a man carrying an automatic pistol. When they ordered him to surrender, police said, he opened fire, killing Chasteen. Woodall shot back, wounding the man.

Warning Issued On Vitamin NEW YORK tf A chemist who was a member of the team that isolated Vitamin four decades ago warns that too much of it "can be dangerous." Dr. Charles Glen King, writing in the March issue of McCall's magazine, referred to Dr. Linus Pauling's widely publicized advice last November that the right amounts of the vitamin at the right time would prevent most colds from developing. Pauling also claimed that large doses of the vitamin could ease the discomfort of colds that do devel-" op. "Many responsible scientists feel that Dr.

Pauling's evidence doesn't prove his point," King wrote. "I agree with them, and with the Food and Drug Administration, which goes further, maintaining that Vietamin in massive doses may be dangerous." Dr. King cited FDA warnings that too much of the vitamin may cause severe diarrhea, which he said can be dangerous to children and the elderly and could "conceivably" cause pregnant women to miscarry. Because little is known about the effects of massive doses of Vitamin he concluded, "It would seem to me risky to follow Dr. Pauling's advice blindly." Pauling himself has called for large-scale studies on the vitamin's uses.

King's comments were in line with the opinion of Dr. Frederick Stare, chairman of Harvard's nutrition department, who told an interviewer LIBERTY CORNERS -The Kienast quintuplets reach their first birthday Wednesday but their harried parents won't pause for a big celebration. "It's just another day at the Kienast home," said the quints' mother, Peggy Jo. just another day means changing 55 diapers and making 15 meals and almost countless bottles.

Leotard-clad ladies skipped and swayed to music over the weekend and two dance groups have performed at worship services there over the past two vears. "There is nothing new to the dance at religious services," explained the Rev. Daren L. Miller, chairman of the Eastern Regional Convention of the Sacred Dance Guild. "In Greek times dance and drama were a part of church life and this continued right into the Middle Ages." Miller contends that the dance is gaining a place in American worship at a growing pace today.

There is a sacred dance group at Drew University in Madison and others in churches of various denominations around the state. While this weekend's dancers, members of the guild, came from as far away as Ohio and New Hampshire, the two dance groups are members of the church. The Carole Dancers, composed of school girls, and the Adult Women's Dance Group, present their own original repertory on many Sundays. D. D.

Mckeever, the church's minister of music end fine arts writes their music, and Robert Yohn, a professional dancer from New York and the church's dance instructor, choregraphs the arrangements. While pastor cf a Dunellen Methodist Church, Miller had a male dance group active in his parish. But he says "it is very difficult to get men and boys involved because of the stigma which has come from classical ballot. I found though that when the boys got into it they loved it. and most of the boys were outstanding athletes in the local schools." ASBURY PARK Miss Linda E.

Rene Dubos, Rockefeller University microbiologist and expert on ecology, said yesterday that he doubted "human life or other forms of life will be destroyed by technological civilization, except of course in the event of nuclear warfare." Dubos, speaking before the 103rd annual convention of the American Association of School Administrators, said "the danger is not so much the destruction of life as the spoiling of its quality." "Should present technologic and ecologic trends continue for but a few decades," he continued, "man indeed would be doomed not doomed to extinction but doomed to despicable ways of life." Dubos said there were signs that humans will not accept present trends and will try not to "let the future be just an extrapolation of the present." Citing Earth Day in April 1970 as an example, Dubos commented that "far from weakening, the environmental movement is gaining strength Woofw i ocnurrMUfT iroMt hi i -a 77 ftf HlJteraa Rt. 35 at Deal Road Ocean Townthlp Skt lilj Mh.SjUH J. 111 WASHINGTON UV-The Senate Inquiry Into corruption at overseas U.S. military clubs and exchanges probed deeper today into dealings between Tensions Cancel Classes GLASSBORO Today's classes at Iligh School were cancelled due to what officials feared would be a spillover from -last week of racial tension and fighting between Negro "and white students. Meanwhile, at theOakcrest High School outside Pleasant-vilie, police were expected to be on hand to prevent large gatherings of students.

Fifteen black students were arrested there on Friday when they refused to attend class. The fighting at Glassboro also occurred Friday. There was no determination of what sparked the incident, but white students walked out of the building en masse as a result. The school was then closed, but Negro students were kept inside until the whites, at the urging of police, dispersed. Mayor William Dalton later issued a proclamation limiting to three the number of youths in a single car or group.

Earlier last week, after two previous days of fighting, the Glassboro school board ordered immediate suspension of anyone causing a disturbance In the school. Several suspensions followed. The prc-dominently white school has a )ulation of 1,100 students. At Oakcrest, the disorders started Thursday when students began throwing food in Ihe cafeteria. After teachers restored order, some students rampaged through halls and damaged ceiling tiles and a loud speaker system.

Dr. C. Joseph Martin. Oak-crest superintendent, said Friday's arrests took place after about 30 black students gathered in the halls before the first class. After being wnrned of their possible arrest, all but 15 of tho students dispersed.

Those students were arrested, but released in the custody of their parents. There are about 2.400 students at Oakcrest. about 15 fit cent them black.

The investigations subcommittee headed by Sea Abraham Ribicoff, began looking intently last week into the activities of William J. Crum, the representative of several brands of American beer and liquor. Testimony by committee investigators charged Crum paid off in money, women and other favors to corner the GI club market for slot machines and to increase the sale of the beer and liquor brands he handled. Among those under subpoena to appear publicly before the panel, it was learned, is retired Brig. Gen.

Earl F. Cole, formerly commander of the Post Exchange system in Europe. He testified earlier in a closed appearance but the transcript of what he said was never released. Last July, after Cole's appearances, the Army declared he had failed to maintain the integrity "demanded of a general officer," ordered him reduced to colonel, stripped of the Distinguished Service Medal awarded in Vietnam in -1968 and retired from the service. The action ended a 30-year military career and cut short Cole's assignment as head of the European Post Exchanges.

At the time, the Army said it would not seek to court martial Cole, and it gave no details of why it believed he had failed to live up to the standards expected of a general. Cole served notice through his lawyers he would "take all necessary action to assure his vindication" against what he called "an unjustifiable administration action."
