the cooperative Transportation Rapid
progress has been made towards working prelimin
airy details. It is anticipated that Important
announcement Will be made in the future.
Consideration was also given, in conjunction with
activities of the Prince Georges County Joint
mittee Transportation, to the recent proposal
Capital Transit Company to abandon the line
tween College Park and laurel. The Company had
planned to discontinue this service April Il but
result of complaints filed with the Maryland Pub
public hearings. The original date of April q
the hearings has now been advanced to April 30.
Abandonment Of the line In question will be vi gor-
ously opposed. It may be pointed out that d scon-
tinuance of the service itself is of Import
due to the fact that the Greyhound Line and
Ameri can ilays have both indicated desire to
take such operation. The point of vital in
terest to Greabelt and our 81 ster communities lies
in the fact that service would be d. scontinued at
College Park, which is in the middle of ED sting
