THOMAS FUSARI LOCH ARBOUR Mrs. Sylvia Ressler Fusari, 51, of HOWARD BERNIUS BERKELEY TOWNSHIP Howard Bernius, 65, of 933 Edgebrook Drive died yesterday at the Burlington County Hospital, Mount Holly Township.

Mr. Bernius, who was born in White Plains, N.Y., lived in The Bronx, N.Y., before coming here three years ago. He was a manager for Safeway Stores Inc. for 25 years and a manager for Fi-nast Stores N.Y., for 15 years. He retired three years ago.

Surviving are his wife, Mrs. Mae Farrell Bernius; a son, Richard, Chester, N.Y.; a daughter, Mrs. Gail Cargi-ulo, Colts Neck Township; two sisters, Mrs. Elizabeth Stanley, The Bronx, and Mrs. Helen Cornley, Sound Beach, N.Y., and eight Wrong Sex: Veterans get preference in hiring, on their test scores (points are added) and layoff protection in many cases.

Since few women are veterans, they are at a distinct disadvantage in competing with many men who are veterans. Test Score Too Low: She also may be low on the hiring list because her civil-service test scores and job rating are "low," even if she got a relatively high grade. There are so many people seeking government Jobs now that agencies have their pick of top-scoring candidates and must take them from the top. None of those answers is official yet. Government aides are still checking, for the President, to find out what the particular problem or problems are in the Leslie Pfenninger case.

But chances are good that at least one, and maybe more, of the points is what is holding up her consideration and-or hiring. Meantime she's waiting for the telephone to ring. By MIKE CAUSEY The Washington Post WASHINGTON Leslie Pfenninger, the 21-year-old woman who wants to know why she can't get a government job here in federal city may not Uke the answers she's likely to get when her would-be boss, Jimmy Carter, calls back. The President will probably have the sad duty of telling the coUege graduate (with two bachelors' degrees Federal Diary earned in three years) that she was born in the wrong place, at the wrong time, of the wrong sex and got low marks on her civil service exam. Pfenninger, of Lanham, is one of the people who got through to Carter Saturday when he held the first-ever radio talk show between a President and the pubUc.

Millions called the toU-free number, and 42 got a chance to ask the President anything they wanted. She wanted to know why it takes so long to get a job with Uncle Sam. The President said he would find out. Federal officials are frantically checking to see what, if anything, is the holdup. Odds are it wiU be one (or more) of the foUow-ing items: Wrong Time: Competition for government jobs is tougher than ever.

In some fields the government now has anywhere from 30 to 60 applicants for a single job. And last week the President ordered a partial hiring freeze, making the job outlook temporarily even more grim. Wrong Place: On Feb. 7 this column outlined the problems local job seekers face because one of every seven federal positions here is under a state-residency quota that excludes because their state quotas are already fiUed residents of Maryland, the District of Columbia and Virginia. It is possible the position Pfenninger wants is a "quota" job.

And just to complete this thirsty story, the smug folks who looked down from their bar stools at the woes of others now are finding the problem hitting close to home. Two of the three local beer breweries have announced price increases, effective within the next two weeks. Kerr's salary in the position is $31,535, up $1,775. J.

FINDER 1 mm CINCINNATI (AP) It's enough to drive a person to drink.

But how do you wet your whistle when your drinking water contains carbon tetrachloride, soft drinks are scarce because of a strike and coffee-producing countries raise the price of your morning brew? In this southwestern Ohio city of 450,000, which voted three times not to fluoridate, the presence of carbon tetrachloride in the drinking water supply threw residents into a frenzy. U.S. Environmental Protection Agency officials admitted last month that tap water in Cincinnati was found to contain levels of carbon tetrachloride that reached 84 par ts per billion, a level some considered dangerous. The EPA considers normal concentrations of the chemical, which is used in dry cleaning and has caused cancer in laboratory animals, to be between 5 and 10 parts per billion. Bottled water companies did well last year when fluoridation began, but that was minor compared to the business they've done here since the first 70-ton slug of car bon tetrachloride floated down the Ohio River last month from a source that has not been pinpointed.

A chemical plant in South Charleston, W.Va., said a second spill was accidentally leaked from its plant into the Kanawha River, a tributary of the Ohio River. "I've never seen anything Uke it," said Dave Wenger, a food store manager. "One man ordered enough water to fiU a bathtub. He said he refuses to take a bath in tap water." A walkout by Teamsters Local 1199 at four local bot awarded after an audit concluded the funds were need-ed to maintain thecompany's building and equipment. Mayor Francis Forst said the fire company would be awarded an additional $3,000 later this year if necessary.

Emilio Caprio was appointed to replace Joseph CoUura as buUding inspector at a salary of $1,500. 2-Car Crash Injures Man FREEHOLD TOWNSHIP -One person was injured in a two-car accident yesterday at Route 537 and East Freehold road.
