SAN FRANCISCO, (P)-A for mer Red leader. once imprisoned for trying to communize U. s. sol diers, says Harry Bridges twice was elected to the communist par tvs powerful central committee.
 Bridges is on trial in federal court on a perjury charge-ac- cused of lying when he swore, to obtain U. s. citizenship in l945, that he never had been a com munist. Australian born, he is president of the CIO International Longshoremen's and Warehouse mems Union
 The witness who testified that Bridges was a member of the cen tral committee was Paul Crouch. He testified yesterday that Bridges was elected to the committee in 1886 under the name Rossi; and that he was elected again in 1888 under the name Dorgan.

 And at his height as a Red, Crouch added, he was sentenced to 40 years in federal prison for tryig to communiZe the U $. army, but served less than three years,
 Crouch is the sixth government witness to testify that Bridges was high in communist circles. Pre- vious witnesses also have said the labor leader used his mothers maiden name, Dorgan, and Rossi for party membership.
 Crouch said there was some criticism of Bridges work at the 1886 convention but that William Scheiderman, identified as a dis trict bureau party leader, "said the name of Harry Bridges should be on the list or committee nomi- neeS.
 Crouch quoted Schneiderman as arguing that Bridges had made important contributions to the party.
