Kuhn Record Staff Writer In the wake of a Superior Court judge's refusal to consider the case, the child of a Tenafly school custodian who lives in Englewood will be allowed to enter Tenafly High School as a freshman in September.

Englewood school board Attorney Arnold Mytelka had asked the court to enforce an injunction that bars Englewood students from attending Tenafly schools. Mytelka claimed the injunction imposed by state Education Commissioner Saul Cooperman covers children of Tenafly school employees. But Superior Court Judge Andrew Napolitano in Hackensack ruled Thursday that his court was not the proper forum for the case. Mytelka said afterward that he would now take the case to Cooperman. If Cooperman agrees that the injunction should apply to the custodian's child, Mytelka said he would expect Tenafly to deny the student's admission.

If not, Englewood will go back to court, Mytelka said. In the meantime, the policy that allows children of Tenafly school employees to attend Tenafly schools remains in effect.

Bell contract talks drag on By Denise Couture Record Business Writer After reaching a tentative contract on regional issues, negotiators for the Bell Atlantic Corp.

and the Communications Workers of America failed on Saturday to reach an agreement on local concerns to put an end to the twoweek strike. The two sides planned to resume negotiations today at 10 a.m.. after talking from 1 to 3 p.m. Saturday. The CWA said its 41,000 members will not return to work until Bell Atlantic's other striking union, the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, achieves settlements for 11,000 workers at New Jersey Bell and Bell of Pennsylvania, two Bell Atlantic subsidiaries.

"We will not cross IBEW picket lines," said Steve Rosenthal, a spokesman for the CWA. An IBEW official said Saturday that the union rejected a New Jersey Bell offer that was essentially the same as the package agreed to by the CWA. The offer was made Friday. "It is far short of what we are demanding," said Joseph McLaughlin, business manager of IBEW Local 827. "It might have been all right in West Virginia, but it don't fly here." The tentative contract approved by the CWA includes a 3 percent base wage increase in the first year of a three-year contract, and 2.25 percent increases in the second and third years plus cost-of-living adjustments.

McLaughlin said New Jersey Bell's offer to the IBEW "was in at around 3 percent," while the union was looking for a 5 percent to 6 percent raise for the 9,200 installers, repairers, and other technical workers it represents. Under the current contract, wages range from about $450 a week for clerical workers to $650 a week for craftsmen, McLaughlin said. The two sides were bargaining on issues common to both subsidiaries, such as wages and benefits, and on local issues, which include working conditions and hours. "Everybody is giving 5 or 6 percent except for the telephone in- Major marijuana ring busted, cops say By Fredrick Kunkle Record Staff Writer Investigators say they have broken up a major ring of marijuana dealers in North Jersey with the arrests of three ringleaders and three of their major customers.

The arrests came after a fivemonth investigation led by the Passaic County Prosecutor's Office. Also seized were 25 pounds of marijuana, valued at about $60,000, and $50,000 in cash. John P. Goceljak, chief of the Passaic County Narcotics Task Force, said the network extended into Morris, Bergen, and Passaic a and had He of St. the his in Nico- of Mon- to- in from of She a dustry," McLaughlin said.

"They said that. when they made the profits, so would we. Well, they are making money hand over fist, and we're not seeing any of it." McLaughlin said he probably would not resume negotiations with New Jersey Bell until Wednesday. Among the 41,000 CWA members covered by the new three-year contract, about 5,300 work for New Jersey Bell. The two sides also agreed to the establishment of a so-called managed-care plan, which Bell Atlantic hopes will help it reduce its health-care costs.

Part of the plan includes providing workers with the names of hospitals and physicians who will charge set fees. na, Goceljak said. "It was in a wall panel, but we found it," he said. The Bornes were charged with conspiring to sell marijuana and possession of more than 5 pounds of the drug. In a raid on another Dover residence, police arrested George Lol zaw, 26, on one count of possession with intent to distribute.

Police charged two others at Lozaw's house and one at the home as disorderly persons. Sam Germano, 20, of Kenvil was arrested in another raid, in which investigators seized 4 ounces. of marijuana and $12,000 in cash. He was charged, with possession with intent to distribute. a.m.

lowed school board employees to send their children to borough schools, according to Tenafly teachers union attorney Harold Springstead. Springstead said the policy is part of the Tenafly Education Association's benefits and should not be taken away. The student, who will begin ninth grade in September, is the child of a custodian who has worked in Tenafly for a year. Their identities have not been disclosed. The latest dispute is part of an ongoing battle that started when Englewood Cliffs sought to send its students to Tenafly intead of Englewood.

Englewood Cliffs, which has no high school of its own, sought to send the approximately 35 eighth graders who graduate from its district annually to Tenafly at taxpayer expense. But in July 1988, Cooperman ruled that Tenafly cannot continue to accept tuition students from Englewood Cliffs or Englewood. Englewood asked Cooperman to establish a regional high school for the three districts, a move Cooperman also denied. All. three districts have appealed Cooperman's ruling to the state Board of Education.

counties and New York. He said more arrests are expected. "We say this was primarily a large-scale marijuana operation," Goceljak said. "They dealt in poundage." He declined to say how the investigation began. Goceljak said investigators were tipped off that one of the leaders of the network was to close a deal Friday at a Fort Lee diner.

Passaic County investigators moved in around 7 p.m. and arrested Mark Sroka, 46, who listed addresses in River Vale and Ridgefield, and Dan Diresta, 37, of Queens. Diresta met Sroka to pay him $20,000 for a previous sale of some 20 pounds of pot, Goceljak said. Police said they found $18,000 in cash on Sroka and $20,000 on Diresta, but no drugs. Goceljak identified Sroka and a Dover couple, Lawrence "Louis" Borne, 29, and Susan Borne, 27, as the principals of the network.

The Bornes were arrested later Friday at their home. Sroka and Diresta were charged with conspiracy to distribute marijuana and possession with the intent to distribute more than 5 pounds of marijuana. At Sroka's house in Little Ferry, police found 25 pounds of marijua-.
