Beer License Application
Opposed in Montgomery

Opposition to an application for a
Glass D beer and light wine license
for the Georgetown Road Grill, Inc,
7546 Old Georgetown road, Bethesda,
Md, was voiced by representatives
Of the Bethesda Volunteer Fire De-
partment, the Bethesda Ministerial
Association and others at a hearing
yesterday in Silver Spring before the
Montgomery County Liquor Control
Board.
Henry Brown, treasurer OF the
grill corporation, appeared in behalf
of the applicants. He was supported
in his petition by Attorneys Vivian
Simpson and Joseph Simpson.
Those opposing the issuance of the
license contended that because of
its nearness to the fire department,
the place would cause a traffic
hazard on the heavily travelled road
and that it would lessen the value
of residential property in the area.
The application was taken under
advisement.
