He protested, on behalf of himself and two announced contenders for the Democratic nomination for Assembly against Riccio who were also cut out of the 51st, and got a change in the lines. Now, he lives in yet another district, the 52nd, but still not the one he was elected to represent. Monaghan, however, is a candidate for re-election in the 51st, he says.The latest and presumably final changes in Park Slope put the four-block area between Third and Fifth Streets and Sixth and Eighth Avenues into the 52nd, which also covers most of South Brooklyn and Brooklyn Heights. The block which contains Methodist Hospital was also moved from the 51 st to the 52nd District.Early this week, both Louise Finney and Joe Ferris repeated their determination to compete for the Democratic nomination to face Assemblyman Riccio in the fall. Ferris narrowly lost to Riccio in the old district in 1972. Both Ferris and Finney lay the changes that have divided Park Slope at Riccio%u2019s door. Finney vowed, \can%u2019t hide,%u201d and charged that his technique for getting re-elected %u201c is not to serve the voters well and earn their support, but simply to gerrymander out of his district the ones whose support he loses.%u201dFerris said that the 51st A.D., as represented by the Central Brooklyn Independent Democrats (CBID), is the only assembly district in Kings County to have elected two independent Democratic district leaders, an entire judicial delegate slate, and approximately half of the Democratic County Committee. \powerful threat to the old-line Democratic macmne as weu as Republican Assemblyman Riccio,%u201d he said. \51st thus bear the brunt of attack and dismemberment from both parties.%u201dIN BROOKLYN HEIGHTS, CAROL BELLAMY SAYS SHEis determined to return to the State Legislature, auu expects to uc a candidate for re-election to the StateROONEY: From Congress To Congress St.PESCE: Stands For Re-ElectionLEVINE: Challenger In 53rd RaceSenate from what is now her home district, the 25th. Her previous district, the 23rd, now contains only a few election districts of the old lines. All of Brooklyn Heights and most of South Brooklyn is now in the 25th, together with the Lower East Side of Manhattan, up to 14th Street. State Senator Paul Bookson, incumbent in that district, has announced that he is standing for re-election.Privately, Bellamy supporters areBELLAMY: Into New Senate Raceurging her to consider possible races for U.S. Congress in the 14th District, where an already crowded field is still growing, or for City Council in the district where Fred Richmond is the councilman and where a change is expected.MICHAEL PESCE, CARROLLGARDENS ASSEMBLYMAN, has announced this week that he will be a candidate for re-election from the 52nd District, which suffered only( ONTINUKD ON PAUH 17iN iiim iiiiin iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiin iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiin75 Henry St. ErrorResidents who live on the north side of the building at 75 Henry Street and i n a few of the Cadman Plaza townhouses have been assigned to a different political subdivision than everyone else in Brooklyn Heights, if the political redistricting enacted by the New York State Legislature last week is allowed to stand.J A r\\ A V* r~%. hmf. r t w u w iiiw ijfiiiu nMichael L.
