COUNCIL
BLOCKS VOTE ON
SUNDAY MOVIES

While the advocates of Sunday
movies in Cecil County won an easy
victory in the General Assembly al
Annapolis, the opposition in Elkton
have easily blocked such Sabbath en-.
tertainment for year at least in any
event.
The town council of Elkton by q
three to two vote decided not to sub
nit the question of whether Elkton
should allow Sunday movies to the
voters on the ballot in the coming
May election.
When the council opened it's ses-
sion for public complaints and dele
cations, a group of approximately
100 citizens, including the pastors OF
various churches, headed by the Rev.
John ]. Bunting, protested against
submitting the question to the voters
a privilege vested in the board by the
new countrywide enabling act.
Besides the organized delegation,
several other citizens also asked the
board not to submit the question to
the voters at tkis time.
The new act, passed in the closing
rush hours of the General Assembly,
is in some respects similar to the
Delaware Sunday law, giving incor-
porated towns the right to decide by
ballot whether they want such en-
tertainment ON the Sabbath.

so enable Maryland to take it's right
full place among the leading states in

tunities for the children

|O'Conor acclaiming the new program
and in many cases faculties of high
and grade schools jointly signed ex-
pressions of their approval.
IAN extended school program,
smaller classes in the elementary
schools, better teachers and many
other improvements to result from
the educational program successfully
sponsored by you, will bring to the
children of Maryland educational
advantages of which we may all be
justly proud" County Superinten-
dent H. r. Hughes, of Calvert Coun-
ty, declared in conveying the thanks
of the Calvert County Board of Ed
