Chief Justice whom, as lawyers, might be Warren E. Burger was a U.S. considered for the court. Marcus (Continuer. from Page One) Republican majority intended to authorize Volk to issue a permit when Marcus's plans meet all Village, requirements.

When first applied for a permit in 1963 he sought to build a nine-story apartment building. His property was. then zoned for high-rise apartments. He was granted a zoning variance for the multistory structure. Nearby residents opposed the nine-story building.

They started legal action in the State Supreme Court to void the variance. When the village board in 1965 amended the zoning ordinance to restrict the height of all apartment buildings to three stories or 35 feet in height, Marcus dropped his plans for a nine story building and submitted plans for four threestory units building. instead The of the 68 permitted under the ordinance. Before Marcus could submit revised plans showing one apartment less, the board adopted an amendment prohibiting all apartment house construction in the village. The State Supreme Court declared the amendment prohibiting apartments illegal and void as it applied to Marcus's property.

The Appellate Division and still later the Court of Appeals upheld this decision. The Village Party, which was in control of the village board at the time the amendment was adopted, had been formed as a protest to the 1963 approval by the former Republican controlled village board of a permit for the nine-story building. The Republicans did not gain control of the board again until last spring. Trustee Williams is a member of the Village Party.

Crain said the volunteers are members of several ethnic and racial groups but that most are young, between the ages of 18 and 27.

He said two more brigades plan to leave Mexico City next Monday and Friday, and that about 600 U.S. volunteers will be in Cuba by the end of the year. Crain said the volunteers paid their own way to Mexico, but he said the Cuban government will pay for transport the rest of the way and will provide food and lodging while the volunteers are in Cuba. The group plans to stay in Cuba about two months. Mexico is the only Western hemisphere nation that maintains relations with Cuba, so Cubana Airlines operates flights to and from Mexico City.

The volunteers are making the trip without U.S. government permission, but State Department sources in Washington said it would be difficult to prosecute them because most will be traveling without passports.
