EYEING THE HEAT-As the weather continued sticky In the Triple Cities area, George Jackson of 1 1 Telegraph Street found a way to beat the heat yesterday by standing nose-deep in the Susquehanna River. The Rockbottom Bridge is in the background. NOSE PLUGS ANYONE? While the mercury climbed, these two youngsters got deeper in the water at the Webster Street pool on Binghamton's South Side. They are Michele Millard, 1 6, of 36 Belden Street, and David Goodrich, 11, of 45 Fayette Street.

The mercury climbed to a humid 91 degrees yesterday, sending bathers to beaches, lakes, rivers and pools to cool off. Today's high was expected to be between 80 and 85. WHO SAYS IT'S the heat-beaters yesterday was Carmine Pagliarella, 17, of 69 Decatur Street. As he stood with his back to the Rockbottom Dam, he looked like he was getting more action from the flow of water than he was from his spinning rod. Sunday Press Msgr.

D. Francis Curtin, the dean of Roman Catholic clergy in the Southern Tier until last year, died yesterday afternoon at St. Joseph's Hospital in Syracuse. He was 79. Monsignor Curtin was pastor of St.

Patrick's Church in Binghamton for 23 years until ill health forced his retirement last September. A native of Syracuse, he had been a patient at the hospital for five weeks. The body will be taken to the home of his sister, Miss Julia Curtin of 207 Lansdowne Road, DeWitt, near Syracuse, tonight. It will remain there until Tuesday, when it will be brought to Binghamton about 4 p. m.

and taken directly to St. Patrick's Church. The Office of the Dead will be sung by priests of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Syracuse at 8 p. m. Tuesday in the church.

By JAMES W. CANAN Press Bureau Washington Robert J. Manning has submitted his resignation as assistant secretary of state for public affairs. The White House is expected to announce the resignation tomorrow, and make public an exchange of letters between Manning and President Johnson. The resignation will take effect July 30.

Manning, a 44-year-old native of Binghamton, has held the State Department post since April, 19fi2. He is expected to continue working with the department as a consultant on policy matters for a few months following the date of his resignation. (Mr, Manning's parents. Mr. and Mrs.

Joseph J. Manning, Hve at 5 Duy Courf.) While Manning's plans are not concrete, he is believed to be considering an offer of an executive editorial position He is known to regard his probable acceptance of that offer as fulfillment of a desire to "return to journalism." He has kept sight of that goal throughout his State Department tenure, which he describes as "a fascinating two-and-a-half years." Manning's successor is expected to be James Greenfield, who, like Manning, one wrote for Time magazine. Manning brought Greenfield to the department as his top deputy shortly after he took over the demanding job of keeping the press and public posted on department policies and actions. Like most others who have tackled the job, Manning has been criticized for failing to satisfy everyone all of the time. This is difficult, considering the often conflicting duties of informing the public and of guarding at the same time against ill-advised publication of matters involving national security.

Lilltiiauiaii Hall in 'Union SI root TC Opera Seeks to Buy Lithuanian Hall for HQ A Binghamton man plunged to his death yesterday afternoon from a ninth-floor hotel room in Syracuse. He was identified as Thomas G.

Zamecnik, 33, of 25714 Chenango Street. Police believe he jumped from a window of Room 927 of the Onondaga Hotel shortly after checking into hotel. Onondaga County Medical Examiner Martin F. Hilsing-er, said he would issue a verdict in the case tomorrow. Mr.

Zamecnik checked into the hotel at 2:40 o'clock yesterday afternoon. He had no luggage. Shortly after 3 o'clock, Thomas Donlon, 17, a dishwasher working downstairs, heard a scream and a thud and, looking outside, saw the still form of the victim on a first-floor annex roof, according to the Syracuse Post-Standard. On a dresser near the open window in the ninth-floor room, police found the victim's room key, an open cig-aret package, a lighter, a partially smoked cigaret and an unopened package of razor blades. They found no note, and no other personal belongings.

A desk clerk said the victim, on checking in, had acted normally. The City Directory lists Mr. Zamecnik as a clerk at Acme Fast Freight. News files indicate he enlisted in the Navy in 1947 and served as late as 1951 on a destroyer that was in action off Korea.

The opera group presumably would have to raise funds to finance the building purchase and possible remodeling of the structure. Mr. Johnson said the hall could seat 300 persons, but could not be used for staging full-scale opera productions.

The opera company gives its regular performances at the Masonic Temple, which has about 600 seats. The company would be among participants in a proposed performing arts center in downtown Binghamton. The group over the years has used a succession of temporary arrangements for holding year-round rehearsals and storing equipment. Mr. Johnson said the Clinton Street building is about 40 years old.

By JAMES HEAVEY The Tri-Cities Opera is trying to buy the Lithuanian Hall, 315 Clinton Street. The opera group wants the building for a permanent headquarters, and as a place to hold rehearsals and build and store scenery. The hall would not be used for regular performances. William H. Johnson, chairman of the opera's board of directors, confirmed last night that the board had decided to make an offer to purchase the property.

"Nothing's firmed up on it," he said. The opera group, he said, is trying to get an agreement on price with the present owners, the Lithuanian National Association. He would not say what price range had been discussed. The Tri-Cities Opera has rented most of the 3 Press Photo.
