In an effort to curb rowdyism, officers were directed to limit vehicular traffic entering the waterfront recreation area to exclude the stream of youthful drivers who show up during the first warm days of each year like clockwork. There were indications yesterday that the five-day-old policy is working and giving pleasing results. Among the pleased was Police Chief George H. Clayton who ordered a police check of cars entering the park Thurs- day night. Of 100 vehicles checked, 95 were from out of town and many were from as far away as Essex, Middlesex and Ocean counties and distant parts of this county, the chief said. The following night Mayor Benedict R. Nicosia and Council- man John Warren, Jr., police committee chairman ordered a barrier at the entrance to the park on Wharf Ave. from 7 p.m. to 7 a.m. The officers at the barrier were instructed to \ admit all pedestrians and drivers with good reason to be in Marine Park — and that. Chief Clayton said yesterday, in- cludes respectable persons who want to enjoy the river breezes. (See TRAFFIC, Page 2) Police Chief G. H. Clayton John D.
