Favrot said in an interview "There is bound to bo a triangle." The other professor is Dr. George H. Mickey, forty-nine, sus- pended dean of the Louisiana State University Graduate School. Dr Mickey, married and the father of two children, has been charged with the slaying of Dr. McMillan his friend for several years, who 'aught at LSU's New Orleans branch. Dffen«*> l a w y e r Scoffs Defense lawyer Robert Klein- peter said there was no possibility of a love affair between the two. "It was a close relationship be- tween two scientists." he said.

He said *he and a man drove into his sta- tion between 6:45 and 8 p.m. Jan. 3. Her death was placed at 12:45 the next morning. Alibi Shattered The day after Mickey's arrest. Favrot said the dean was arrestee when the state found his alibi for the night of Jan. 9 was without foundation. Also, Favrot said, "spots of fresh human blood of the same type as that of the deceased" were found 6n Mickey's.car. Mickey has maintained his in- nocence and insrsts he knows nothing of the slaying.

Eddie was one of my very best personal friends—one* of Yonkers' greatest citizens." Mrs. Murray had unveiled the memorial plaque at the main.en- trance to the building, which houses a food concession and skate shop and other facilities. At the luncheon she commented, "All I can say. is thanks. I do appreciate it, and all I can say is thanks again." State Sen. William F. Condon further commended the Common greatest citizen." She received an embossed copy of the Common Council's resolution sponsored by 3th Ward Councilman Michael J. Kehoe memorializing the occasion. It was presented by Vice Mavor Nugent, who a few years ago had introduced the original resolution proposing the building of such a rink. Mr.. Flynn, planning and devel- opment chairman for the Recrea- tion Commission when the project got under way about a year ago. said it is larger than the Plavland rink and larger than the Madison Square Garden rink. Mr. Brogan, who had been a clo.se associate of Mr. Murray's for more than 50 years, said the occasion marked "another mile- stone in the progress of the city's development," and it honored "the memory of a man who, in his lifetime, contributed immeasurab- ly to that development. "It is a day, too, that should be marked as one of real achieve ment on the part of the Common Council, which provided the nec- essary funds, and the Recreation Commission and its staff, which conceived the project and guided it to its successful completion." Mr. Brogan cited Mr. Murray's long career as Democratic party leader and- his part in "the city's religious, charitable, fraternal and civic endeavors — to which he brought the same leadership ' and sincerity of purpose that marker his political and official careers." 'Another Forward Step' The speaker said the Skating Center "represents public service at its best" and "another forward step in the city's march of pro- gress in the field of recreation." Crediting "the type of government the city is' enjoying" for "much of the rapid gains Yonkers has made in recent years," he said "our parks and playgrounds arc second to none in Westchester County." Speeches and tributes carried over from the Skating Center tc a luncheon at Tropical Acres on Central Park Ave., where more than 100 were the guests of Mol- loy and Murray Contracting Co., which built t h e approximateh 5480,000 rink, and of Peter Carver Associates of New York, archi- tects and engineers, who designed the structure. It was there that Salvatore Pre- zioso, county recreation superin- tendent, said, "If most of the other communities would accept responsibilities in the field of rec- reation, we wou'd have a finer county in which to live and work. "I think the City of Yonkers and it^s Recreation Commission shoulc be congratulated," he declared, and commended their "foresight in leaving the rink open to others in the county by not restricting it to Yonkers residents." Hailed As Greatest Achievement Mayor Kristensen hailed it as "the greatest achievement recre- ation-ways in the city's history — !n my book it's the frosting on the cake of the recreation program of the last 10 years. "When the Council in its wis- dom decided to name it for Ed by a contingent of scouts, and offi- cials moved- outside briefly during the dedication for the plaque un- veiling. The tribute inscribed on the tab- let reads: "In recognition of his many contributions to the develop- ment of his community, and to the welfare of its citizens, this plaque is erected and dedicated to the memorv of Edward J. Murray, 1888-1957, by the people of the City of Yonkers with grateful remem- brance" petuate the name of Yonkers greatest citizen." Mr. Cerrato, who in a round of congratulations to all who cooper- ated in t h e project commendec The-Herald Statesman for its news coverage, paid special tribute to Mr. Curran as' "a gentleman whr appreciates the recreation needs of Yonkers. has an understanding Council and is one of the finest city managers Yonkers has had— in fact the best." Mr. Curran said the response to the suggestion of naming the cen- ter for Mr. Murray "was one of the most inspiring things that Has happened" during his administra- tion. "There was complete unan- imity of .opinion/' Expects A Second Rink Recreation Supt. McCrudden who said the big celebration missed his birthday by one day, was praised by Mr. Cerrato for his sincerity and loyalty. Mr. Mc- Crudden, referring to an earlier remark by th-2 mayor, said, "In 1923 we were going to be run out of town for asking for $6,000" for operat : ng the Recreation Commis- sion. He predicted the recreation program wilj continue to exoand "and we will see another rink in the south of the city." Mr. Cerrato thanked the Board of Education for its cooperation in the recreation program, and he in- troduced E. YVetmore Kinsley a 'ormcr commission nresident, ar "Mr. Recreation of Yonkers." Mr. Flynn as recreational consul tant and former commissioner, re ceived special commendation, from individuals and the entire gather- ing. He also is a vice cha'rmar of the Yonkers Boy Scout District and received an illuminated scroll from, the district chairman, Al berto P. Gavasci. 1,700 Take To Ice As the luncheon was in progress, an estimated 1,700 took to the ice after the dedication in free skatinp until 6 o'clock. Before the onen •session, there was an ice review featuring Florence Rae. New York City -professional, the Oxford Fig- ure Skating Club, and the West- chester and Rye Figure Skating Clubs. A skaters' parade of Yonkers Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts, cos- tumed school children and 'the Westchester Follies marked the opening to the public. The Rt. Rev. Msgr. John F. Krlly. pastor of St. Joseph's Church, where Edward Murrav had been a communicant, gave the invocation, and the Rev. Dr. Felix B. Pock, executive director of the Yonkers Council of Church- es, the benediction. Mrs. Joshua VI. Fiero III'sang the national an- them, and the Frank A. Rea Post, \merican Legion, Drum and Bu^lc Corps offered several numbers. Keys Presented To Cerrato Mr. Flynn presided at the dedi- cation; Mayor Kristensen cave the welcoming address, and Mr. Cur- ran dedicated the center, present- ing the keys to Mr. Cerrato. The flag on the site of the form- er St. Nicholas Oval was raised $7,500 Settles Accident Case A pre-trial settlement for $7,500 was reached before Judge Tobin '.n the case of Kilmer vs. Miller.

PULSE OF THE CITY Carvel Moves Headquarters Carvel Corp. opened its new headquarters at 430 Nepoerhan Ave. in the Westchester Industrial Center this morning. The corporation shut down its lid offices at 80 Woodworth Ave. over the weekend. The move was accomplished Saturday and Sun- day to avoid losing a working day. Fifteen trucks, each of the vans making several trips, carried the office equipment and furniture to 130 Nepperhan Ave. Machinery for Carvel's four .Yontyers factories already had been installed in the new building. The corporation manufactures oquipment and provides the in- gredients for soft and hard ice cream. The move to the Westchester Industrial Center consolidated all of Carvel's-offices exepet the sales headquarters, which is still locat- ed in Dobbs Ferry.

By MILTON HOFFMAN WHITE PLAINS— County Executive Edwin G. Mi- chaelian today was "delighted" by Gov. Rockefeller's recommenda- tion that the state take over the major part of the Westchester parkway system. Michaelian said he was satisfied because it was "an equitable solu- tion to the long-standing parkway problem" and because the "state has recognized its responsibility to Westchester County with respect to the parkway system" as an in- tegrated part of the interstate parkway system in this region: Michaelian said that the state would not take over the system until next year. He expected a six- lane Cross-County Parkway to be the first order of business with the straightening of the Hutchinson and lower Saw Mill River Park- way next. Michaelian said the Cross-Coun- ty Parkway should have priority because it will eventually take traffic from the Sprain Brook Parkway which is being built from Yonkers north to the Hawthorne Circle. Hutch Traffic Cut He said it was not now neces- ary to widen the Hutchinson to six lanes because traffic has been re- duced by the almost parallel New England Thruway. Michaelian today was forward- ing to the Board of Supervisors a copy of a report given to Gov. Rockefeller by his committee studying possible transfer of the parkways to the state. Michaelian said that now that the agreement has been reached with the state, other matters can be tackled such as what to do with the Westchester Parkway Po- lice. The police not only patrol the parkway system but the parks as well. Michaelian said the changeover will mean a new concept. Up to how, the parks and the roads lead- ing to the parks were considered interrelated. The change would give the new authority control of the major roadways but the park lands would be under county juris- diction. County Burden Eased. The state's taking over of a $9,- 800,000 tax burden will have no di- rect bearing on t h e Westchesteh taxpayer. The parkway tolls lor the last three years have been paying debt on the parkways. Michaelian said that while there is no immediate tax benefit, the decision means that the Westches- ter taxpayer is not being saddled with a 39 to 50 million dollar ad- ditional debt. Westchester built its parkway system in the 1920s and 1930s. At first it was an intracounty system. When the Hutchinson River Park- way was connected to the Merritt Parkway in Connecticut in 1937, the character was emphasized as interstate. In the early 1950s, sparked by public demands for action due to an alarming number of auto fatali- ties on the parkway system, par- ticuarly the Hutchinson, engineer- ing studies were made. In 1954, the Board of Supervi- sors received an engineering re- port that the Hutchinson design was outmoded, and the parkway was safe for only 25 m.p.h. Plan Offered A construction plan was offered, stating that it would cost the coun- ty some 35 million'dollars to re- construction the Hutchinson into a six-lane parkway. On Jan. 17, 1955, new estimates construct th Hutchinson into r gineers. contemplated $38,421,000 to reconstruct the Hutch. 511,051.- 000 for the Cross-County Parkway and 55.664,000 for the Saw Mill- more than 55 million dollars. County Executive James D. Hop- kins explored possibilities of state or federal aid. None was forth- coming. The county, rather than issue bonds, decided that an authority would be a solution. Gov. Harriman in 1955 vetoed a bill which would have set-'up a Westchester Parkway Authority, mainly because the State Public Works Department said the au- thority would be in competition with the State Thruway Authority. On May 25, 1955, both Hopkins and the then Democratic County Chairman Harold Garrity went to Washington to ask the House Pub- lic Works Committee for aid for the county parkways. They got a cool reception. Hopkins, Garrity Argue Other background highlights, chronologically: In January 1956. Hopkins and Garrity argued publicly whether state or federal aid had been ex- plored fully. Hopkins met with Harriman's staff and a new au- thority bill was submitted at Al- bany. Republicans on the Board of Supervisors beat down a Demo- cratic attempt to substitute a bill with a Democratic version. In February 1956. fearing anoth- er veto, the county administration and the Board of Supervisors in- corporated some Democratic amendments in a compromise ef- fort. The compromise put Demo- crats on the Authority and limited tolls to 25 cents. On April 20, 1956, Gov. Harri- man signed the Westchester Park- way Authority Act. The Board of Supervisors made the authority operative for Jan. 1, 1968. Other events: Nov 17. 1957—Newspaper stor> reveals that when Parkway Au- thority takes over in 1958. it will have only $400,000 ior reconstruc- tion because it will pay the county a rental for the parkways and will pay the county maintenance. The rental will pay off parkway bonds. U Mile* Taken Over Jan. 2, 1958—Parkway Authority announces reconstruction of the Cross-County Parkway will be first .order of business. Announces it plans to put a toll station on the Cross-County Parkway in Mount Vernon to catch cars using the Thruway to duck Wtstcheater toll station*.. Authority "takes over 26 miles of Westchester Rytem—all of Hutrhinson and Cross-County and a short piece of the Saw Mill. Jan. 18. 1958—Mount Vernon of- ficials and home owner* fight placing of toll station In Mount Vemon. February 1958 — County Atty.. Harry G. Herman finds toll sta- tion proposal for Cross-County il- legal because federal funds were used in constructing sections of Cross-County. May 1958 — Parkway Authority announces it will raise tolls from 10 to 25 cents starting May 15. Traffic iq reduced, and revenue rises—but far below expectations. July 7, 1958—Board of Supervi- sors wonders if tolls can support rebuilding program for both Cross- County . a n d Hutchinson R4ve» Parkway. Mead Doubtful Supervisor John Mead (R-Lewis- boro) declares doubt that the au- thority can finance estimated 65 to 100 million dollars. "If we put 100 million dollars more on the backs of the taxpayers, I don't think any man in this room will ever get elected again," he said. August 195*—Parkway Authority and County Executive Michaelian at odds on who should pick en- gineers for Hutchinson reconstruc- tion plans. Sept. 8, 1958—Supervisors report virtually insurmountable barrien of turning the parkway system over to the state. September 1958 — Parkway Au- thority submits to Public Works Commissioner James C. ^Harding plans for reconstruction of the Cross-County Parkway. Cost for reconstructing Cross-County re- vealed as 15 million dollars. Addi- tional F l e e t w o o d bridge over Bronx River Parkway and Bronx River needed for six-lane high- way. October 6, 1958—Board of Super- visors turns down Democratic su- pervisors on idea to have Cross- County Parkway transferred to the state in a plan to extend the park- way to the New England Thruway —one mile east. Thruway Opens Oct. 18, 1958 — New England Thruway opens. Hutchinson rev- enues cut considerably. Nov. 21, 1958—Report by Madi- gan-Hyland. consulting engineers, tells authority it can finance re- construction of Cross-County Park- way with existing toll stations. Dec. 12. 1958 — Public Work* Commissioner H a r d i n g recom- mends that Michaelian disapprove engineering plans for the Cross- County Parkway drawn by An- drews & Clark. Follows statement that the Parkway Authority is go- ing to hold up plans anyway—at least through 1959 Legislature. Dec. 16, 1958—Supervisors de- cide that complete rebuilding of the Hutchinson River Parkway is not the answer to the parkway needs—that the county should sal- vage as much of the present con- struction as possible. March 25 1959—Legislature al- lows Westchester to abolish the Westchester Parkway Authority and continue 25-cent toll if it wishes. March 31, 1959—Gov. Rockefel- ler appoints nine-man committee to investigate possibility of West- chester parkways going to the state. Governor 'Confident' May 28, 195^-RockofeHer tells a Westchester County Assn. audi- ence: "I am confident there will be a solution worked out" for a West- chester parkway system. June 27, 1959 — Robert Mosea, member of Rockefeller committee, said Westchester parkways may be transferred to state control much sooner than "was expected.

Love Triangle Hinted t In Murder Of Teacher BY IRWIN FRANK

BATON ROUGE. La tfft - The possibility of a love triangle was raised today in the slaying of Dr. Margaret McMillan

Dist. Atty. J. St. Clair Favrot said the state thought it had. a plausible motive why the thirty-mne-year-old unwed biology pro­fessor was hacked to death on a lonely country road.

2 Of Yonkers Named To Unit By Lefkowitz

Two Yonkers women have beer: added by Arty. Gen. Louis J. Ixf-kowitz to'the "Committee of One Hundred Housewives." which h~ terms a no'0"* force in the battle to preserve the ethics of the mar­ket place."

They are Mrs. Arthur W. Rich­ardson of 4b Pond field Ra. \\ \ . wife of the 11th Ward Supervisor, and Mrs. Nicholas Pace of 591 Palisade Ave., a former president of the Yonkers Business and Pro­fessional Women's Quo.

Murray, my cup was overflowing. Eddie was one of my very best personal friends—one* of Yonkers' greatest citizens."

Mrs. Murray had unveiled the memorial plaque at the main.en­trance to the building, which houses a food concession and skate shop and other facilities. At the luncheon she commented, "All I can say. is thanks. I do appreciate it, and all I can say is thanks again."

State Sen. William F. Condon further commended the Common

greatest citizen." She received an embossed copy of the Common Council's resolution sponsored by 3th Ward Councilman Michael J. Kehoe memorializing the occasion. It was presented by Vice Mavor Nugent, who a few years ago had introduced the original resolution proposing the building of such a rink.

Mr.. Flynn, planning and devel­opment chairman for the Recrea­tion Commission when the project got under way about a year ago. said it is larger than the Plavland rink and larger than the Madison Square Garden rink.

Mr. Brogan, who had been a clo.se associate of Mr. Murray's for more than 50 years, said the occasion marked "another mile­stone in the progress of the city's development," and it honored "the memory of a man who, in his lifetime, contributed immeasurab­ly to that development.

"It is a day, too, that should be marked as one of real achieve ment on the part of the Common Council, which provided the nec­essary funds, and the Recreation Commission and its staff, which conceived the project and guided it to its successful completion."

Mr. Brogan cited Mr. Murray's long career as Democratic party leader and- his part in "the city's religious, charitable, fraternal and civic endeavors — to which he brought the same leadership ' and sincerity of purpose that marker his political and official careers." 'Another Forward Step'

The speaker said the Skating Center "represents public service at its best" and "another forward step in the city's march of pro­gress in the field of recreation." Crediting "the type of government the city is' enjoying" for "much of the rapid gains Yonkers has made in recent years," he said "our parks and playgrounds arc second to none in Westchester County."

Speeches and tributes carried over from the Skating Center tc a luncheon at Tropical Acres on Central Park Ave., where more than 100 were the guests of Mol-loy and Murray Contracting Co., which built t h e approximateh 5480,000 rink, and of Peter Carver Associates of New York, archi­tects and engineers, who designed the structure.

It was there that Salvatore Pre-zioso, county recreation superin­tendent, said, "If most of the other communities would accept responsibilities in the field of rec­reation, we wou'd have a finer county in which to live and work.

"I think the City of Yonkers and it̂ s Recreation Commission shoulc be congratulated," he declared, and commended their "foresight in leaving the rink open to others in the county by not restricting it to Yonkers residents." Hailed As Greatest Achievement

Mayor Kristensen hailed it as "the greatest achievement recre­

ation-ways in the city's history — !n my book it's the frosting on the cake of the recreation program of the last 10 years.

"When the Council in its wis­dom decided to name it for Ed

by a contingent of scouts, and offi­cials moved- outside briefly during the dedication for the plaque un­veiling.

The tribute inscribed on the tab­let reads: "In recognition of his many contributions to the develop­ment of his community, and to the welfare of its citizens, this plaque is erected and dedicated to the memorv of Edward J. Murray, 1888-1957, by the people of the City of Yonkers with grateful remem­brance"

petuate the name of Yonkers greatest citizen."

Mr. Cerrato, who in a round of congratulations to all who cooper­ated in t h e project commendec The-Herald Statesman for its news coverage, paid special tribute to Mr. Curran as' "a gentleman whr appreciates the recreation needs of Yonkers. has an understanding Council and is one of the finest city managers Yonkers has had— in fact the best."

Mr. Curran said the response to the suggestion of naming the cen-ter for Mr. Murray "was one of the most inspiring things that Has happened" during his administra­tion. "There was complete unan­imity of .opinion/' Expects A Second Rink

Recreation Supt. McCrudden who said the big celebration missed his birthday by one day, was praised by Mr. Cerrato for his sincerity and loyalty. Mr. Mc­Crudden, referring to an earlier remark by th-2 mayor, said, "In 1923 we were going to be run out of town for asking for $6,000" for operat:ng the Recreation Commis­sion. He predicted the recreation program wilj continue to exoand "and we will see another rink in the south of the city."

Mr. Cerrato thanked the Board of Education for its cooperation in the recreation program, and he in­troduced E. YVetmore Kinsley a 'ormcr commission nresident, ar "Mr. Recreation of Yonkers."

Mr. Flynn as recreational consul tant and former commissioner, re ceived special commendation, from individuals and the entire gather­ing. He also is a vice cha'rmar of the Yonkers Boy Scout District and received an illuminated scroll from, the district chairman, Al berto P. Gavasci. 1,700 Take To Ice

As the luncheon was in progress, an estimated 1,700 took to the ice after the dedication in free skatinp until 6 o'clock. Before the onen •session, there was an ice review featuring Florence Rae. New York City -professional, the Oxford Fig­ure Skating Club, and the West­chester and Rye Figure Skating Clubs.

A skaters' parade of Yonkers Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts, cos­tumed school children and 'the Westchester Follies marked the opening to the public.

The Rt. Rev. Msgr. John F. Krlly. pastor of St. Joseph's Church, where Edward Murrav had been a communicant, gave the invocation, and the Rev. Dr. Felix B. Pock, executive director of the Yonkers Council of Church­es, the benediction. Mrs. Joshua VI. Fiero III'sang the national an­them, and the Frank A. Rea Post, \merican Legion, Drum and Bu^lc Corps offered several numbers. Keys Presented To Cerrato

Mr. Flynn presided at the dedi­cation; Mayor Kristensen cave the welcoming address, and Mr. Cur­ran dedicated the center, present­ing the keys to Mr. Cerrato.

By MILTON HOFFMAN WHITE PLAINS—

County Executive Edwin G. Mi­chaelian today was "delighted" by Gov. Rockefeller's recommenda­tion that the state take over the major part of the Westchester parkway system.

Michaelian said he was satisfied because it was "an equitable solu­tion to the long-standing parkway problem" and because the "state has recognized its responsibility to Westchester County with respect to the parkway system" as an in­tegrated part of the interstate parkway system in this region:

Michaelian said that the state would not take over the system until next year. He expected a six-lane Cross-County Parkway to be the first order of business with the straightening of the Hutchinson and lower Saw Mill River Park­way next.

Michaelian said the Cross-Coun­ty Parkway should have priority because it will eventually take traffic from the Sprain Brook Parkway which is being built from Yonkers north to the Hawthorne Circle. Hutch Traffic Cut

He said it was not now neces-ary to widen the Hutchinson to six lanes because traffic has been re­duced by the almost parallel New England Thruway.

Michaelian today was forward­ing to the Board of Supervisors a copy of a report given to Gov. Rockefeller by his committee studying possible transfer of the parkways to the state.

Michaelian said that now that the agreement has been reached with the state, other matters can be tackled such as what to do with the Westchester Parkway Po­lice. The police not only patrol the parkway system but the parks as well.

Michaelian said the changeover will mean a new concept. Up to how, the parks and the roads lead­ing to the parks were considered interrelated. The change would give the new authority control of the major roadways but the park lands would be under county juris­diction. County Burden Eased.

The state's taking over of a $9,-800,000 tax burden will have no di­rect bearing on t h e Westchesteh taxpayer. The parkway tolls lor the last three years have been paying debt on the parkways.

Michaelian said that while there is no immediate tax benefit, the decision means that the Westches­ter taxpayer is not being saddled with a 39 to 50 million dollar ad­ditional debt.

Westchester built its parkway system in the 1920s and 1930s. At first it was an intracounty system. When the Hutchinson River Park­way was connected to the Merritt Parkway in Connecticut in 1937, the character was emphasized as interstate.

In the early 1950s, sparked by public demands for action due to an alarming number of auto fatali­ties on the parkway system, par-ticuarly the Hutchinson, engineer­ing studies were made.

In 1954, the Board of Supervi­sors received an engineering re­port that the Hutchinson design was outmoded, and the parkway was safe for only 25 m.p.h. Plan Offered

A construction plan was offered, stating that it would cost the coun­ty some 35 million'dollars to re­construction the Hutchinson into a six-lane parkway.

On Jan. 17, 1955, new estimates construct th Hutchinson i n t o r gineers. contemplated $38,421,000 to reconstruct the Hutch. 511,051.-000 for the Cross-County Parkway and 55.664,000 for the Saw Mil l -more than 55 million dollars.

County Executive James D. Hop­kins explored possibilities of state or federal aid. None was forth­coming.

The county, rather than issue bonds, decided that an authority would be a solution.

Gov. Harriman in 1955 vetoed a bill which would have set-'up a Westchester Parkway Authority, mainly because the State Public Works Department said the au­thority would be in competition with the State Thruway Authority.

On May 25, 1955, both Hopkins and the then Democratic County Chairman Harold Garrity went to Washington to ask the House Pub­lic Works Committee for aid for the county parkways. They got a cool reception. Hopkins, Garrity Argue

Other background highlights, chronologically:

In January 1956. Hopkins and Garrity argued publicly whether state or federal aid had been ex­plored fully. Hopkins met with Harriman's staff and a new au­thority bill was submitted at Al­bany. Republicans on the Board of Supervisors beat down a Demo­cratic attempt to substitute a bill with a Democratic version.

In February 1956. fearing anoth­er veto, the county administration and the Board of Supervisors in­corporated some D e m o c r a t i c amendments in a compromise ef­fort. The compromise put Demo­crats on the Authority and limited tolls to 25 cents.

On April 20, 1956, Gov. Harri­man signed the Westchester Park­way Authority Act. The Board of Supervisors made the authority operative for Jan. 1, 1968.

Other events: Nov 17. 1957—Newspaper stor>

reveals that when Parkway Au­thority takes over in 1958. it will have only $400,000 ior reconstruc­tion because it will pay the county a rental for the parkways and will pay the county maintenance. The rental will pay off parkway bonds. U Mile* Taken Over

Jan. 2, 1958—Parkway Authority announces reconstruction of the Cross-County Parkway will be first

.order of business. Announces it plans to put a toll station on the Cross-County Parkway in Mount Vernon to catch cars using the Thruway to duck Wtstcheater toll station*.. Authority "takes over 26 miles of Westchester Rytem— all of Hutrhinson and Cross-County and a short piece of the Saw Mill.

Jan. 18. 1958—Mount Vernon of­ficials and home owner* fight

placing of toll station In Mount Vemon.

February 1958 — County Atty.. Harry G. Herman finds toll sta­tion proposal for Cross-County il­legal because federal funds were used in constructing sections of Cross-County.

May 1958 — Parkway Authority announces it will raise tolls from 10 to 25 cents starting May 15. Traffic iq reduced, and revenue rises—but far below expectations.

July 7, 1958— Board of Supervi­sors wonders if tolls can support rebuilding program for both Cross-County . a n d Hutchinson R4ve» Parkway. Mead Doubtful

Supervisor John Mead (R-Lewis-boro) declares doubt that the au­thority can finance estimated 65 to 100 million dollars. "If we put 100 million dollars more on the backs of the taxpayers, I don't think any man in this room will ever get elected again," he said.

August 195*—Parkway Authority and County Executive Michaelian at odds on who should pick en­gineers for Hutchinson reconstruc­tion plans.

Sept. 8, 1958—Supervisors report virtually insurmountable bar r ien of turning the parkway system over to the state.

September 1958 — Parkway Au­thority submits to Public Works Commissioner James C. ^Harding plans for reconstruction of the Cross-County Parkway. Cost for reconstructing Cross-County re­vealed as 15 million dollars. Addi­tional F l e e t w o o d bridge over Bronx River Parkway and Bronx River needed for six-lane high­way.

October 6, 1958—Board of Super­visors turns down Democratic su­pervisors on idea to have Cross-County Parkway transferred to the state in a plan to extend the park­way to the New England Thruway —one mile east. Thruway Opens

Oct. 18, 1958 — New England Thruway opens. Hutchinson rev­enues cut considerably.

Nov. 21, 1958—Report by Madi-gan-Hyland. consulting engineers, tells authority it can finance re­construction of Cross-County Park­way with existing toll stations.

Dec. 12. 1958 — Public Work* Commissioner H a r d i n g recom­mends that Michaelian disapprove engineering plans for the Cross-County Parkway drawn by An­drews & Clark. Follows statement that the Parkway Authority is go­ing to hold up plans anyway—at least through 1959 Legislature.

Dec. 16, 1958—Supervisors de­cide that complete rebuilding of the Hutchinson River Parkway is not the answer to the parkway needs—that the county should sal­vage as much of the present con­struction as possible.

March 25 1959—Legislature al­lows Westchester to abolish the Westchester Parkway Authority and continue 25-cent toll if it wishes.

March 31, 1959—Gov. Rockefel­ler appoints nine-man committee to investigate possibility of West­chester parkways going to the state. Governor 'Confident'
