Prince Georges County Facing
Last-Minute Rush For

With the primary elections only
a week off, Democrats of Prince
Georges County are faced with
a last-minute rush of campaign
ing that should prove to be doubly
interesting because there are still
three unendorsed candidates in
the field who are hotly contesting
nominations with the chosen
group.
Most prominent of these unen-
dorsed candidates is Robert Nc
Cullough, candidate for states at
torney, who has a strong follow
ing in the northern end of the
county. The other unendorsed
candidates are Roger B. Oursler,
candidate for sheriff, and Cor
nelius S. Ryan, candidate for the
State Central Committee.
Democrats have scheduled four
political rallies to be held within
three days, at which all Demo
cratic candidates are invited to
speak. The clubs holding rallies
are the Twentieth District Demo

In Three Communities
Require 100000

New elementary school accom-
modationS are available for resi-
dents of the Capitol Heights,
Maryland Park, and Seat Pleas
ant area. if they can persuade the
Prince Georges Board of County
Commissioners to find 100000 to
supplement Federal funds left
over from the 100000 PWA
school building program, sur.
vey Of the record today shows.
The Federal government is Civ.
ing the county about 100000 in
addition to buying $275,000 in
school bonds. A total of SIC, 900 of
the 100000 is to be used in the
construction of elem entary
schools at Oxon Hill, Bradbury
Heights, Laurel, and Brentwood.
T e remainder, or 100000, is
available if the county can match
the free grant of the government
at ratio of seventy to thirty.
County Lacks Funds
Nicholas Orem, superintendent
OF Schools, SAID:
81 do not think there is any
county money available to match
the $4,000, but If enough
money Is found I should like
to see the congestion in the
Capitol Heights-Seat Pleasant
area remedied."
Construction of larger element
ary school facilities in that area
is a counter.proposal to the En-
glehardt survey recommendation
that a 100000 high school be
constructed there and the Mary.
land Park High School be made
an elementary school to relieve
the congestion. Such a sum
would have to be granted by the
Maryland legislature, however, it
was said, since that large amount
would not be available.
Board to Get $4,000
The Board of Education will
receive $131,000 this week, to
make a total of $275, 900 in bonds
sold to the Federal Government.
Of that sum, $4,000 has been
dedicated to the construction of
a colored school at Upper Marl-
boro, and cannot be used for any
other purpose, said Mr.. Orem.
The remainder will be used to
complete jobs now under way. A
total of $4,000 is to be used Tor a
colOred school at Amendale.-
On learning that they haze a
chance to improve elementary
school facilities without waiting
for a high school authorized by
the legislature, civic leaders today
began a study of the question.
