Raid Drill Praised
As Model for County

With the concern of the entire
county turned toward Greenbelt,
cooperation of local residents made
lGrseabelt one. of the most COM
pletely dark towns participating
in the practice black-out last Fri
ady night, according to County
Chief Air-Raid Warden Robert
Forrest. "This is particularly graf
flying" said Mr.. Forrest, "since
Greenbelt is one spot that stands
out more than any other IN the
county,"
Also success, said local Safety
Director George Panagoulis, was
the practice afraid Sunday morn
ing. When the "alert" signal was
received at headquarters (the
Fire House) at 8:55 a. m. the
police and fire auxiliaries were
warned to be ready for action,
and 60 afraid wardens were or
dered to their posts. Said Mr..
Panagoulis, "We appreciate the
cooperation of Greenbelt residents
I'M the past, and hope it will con-
tinue in the future"
Flaws Revealed
He added that the only flaw
in the system was that the siren,
which is to be replaced by a more
effective signal, was not heard
distinctly in some sections Of town
Cautioning Greenbelters against
looking out of windows, even in
the practice raids, Mr.. Panagonlis
said, A'That is the most likely spot,
in an actual raid, to be injured.
We must practice now what we
may have to do later"

Keep Windows Screened,
Panagoulis Advises

George Panagoulis, Safety Di-
rector, advises people who have
removed their screens from win
dows to replace them. In the event
of an air raid, these screens can
aid in preventing damage caused
by flying glass.
He also stated that taped win
dows would prevent broken glass
from shattering and blankets
placed over windows would be ad-
visable. However, Mr.. Panagoulis
pointed out, these precautions
are not an obsolute safeguard IN
the event of an air raid, but are
to be considered as aids in pre-
venting otherwise greater damage
and affording safety.

Alleged Fire Results
I'm ALLEGED Blackout

More damage was caused by
the sounding Of the fire alarm on
Tuesday evening at about 7 p.
m. than by the fire. The fire,
occurring on A block, was caused
by some grease spilling on a hot
stove and bursting into flame. Al
though the fire damage was neg
ligible, the sound of the alarm
caused many people to stop what
ever they were doing and douse
their lights in fear Of an air
raid. Others who remembered that
the air raid alarm is sounded by
the siren were not misled by the
sound.
