Looks as if the Washington County
school teachers will get much need
ed increase of $500 a year, for which
an increase in the tax levy of 2C
cents will probably be made when
the 1947 tax rate is fixed. The in
crease will give county teachers
minimum of $4,000 a year.
From all have been able to gath
er however, any plans for a real
long-range school building program
in the county will have to wait until
the much discussed SherbroW re-
port is acted on by the State Legis-
lature, when it convenes next month
The possibility that the State Leg
islature will repeal the bills that eX-
tended the terms of office of many
O'Conor appointees, which l dis
cussed in this column last week
brings up a very interesting point.
Should the repeal bills be passed in
the normal way, they would not be-
come effective until next June, by
which time the State Legislature will
have adjourned-not to meet again
for two years. If this happens, Gov
ernor- Elect Lane will be able to
make all his appointments, recess
appointments - appointments that
could not be confirmed by the State
Senate until that body re-convened
in 1949.
By that time of course, the Lane
appointees would be firmly in the
saddle and the two-year late con-
firmations would merely be matter
of form.
It would seem, therefore, that if
the State Senate wants to protect its
privilege of confirming appoint
ments, the repeal bills would have
to stipulate that they become effect
i've Immediately after they are pass
ed which would require a two-thirds
majority.
It's quite an interesting point, isn't
it?
That little plan of the Brooke Lee
dominated Maryland State Planning
Board in Montgomery County, and
the equally Lee dominated Montgom-
cry County Boyd of Commissioners,
which by the was, was decisively
beaten in the recent election-to
shove through wholesale rezoning of
property before the Republicans took
office was very effectively scotched
on Saturday morning, when Govern
or O'Conor dispatched special po-
lice officer to Montgomery County
with the commissions of the newly
elected Republican County Commits
sioners, who were Immediately sworn
into Office.
They tell me that the Democrats
were really caught f1at-footed, so
much so, that their boss, Brooke Lee,
wasn't even around, having left for
a trip to New York.
Now, of course, the final action on
all the properties that were sched-
uled to be rezoned from residential
to commemorative Park and Plann-
ing Board had already advertised
hearings on them-will rest with the
Republican Board of County Com
missioners.
Nice going Governor O'Conor-
but I'm still wondering what caused
the sudden action.

Gold Cup Speedboats
To Renew Classic
AT Detroit Today
By tks Assceiossd Press

DETROIT, Sept. 2.-Opened to
the poor mans boat" for the first
time in its 42-year history, the Gold
Cup speedboat race brought nearly
score of the fastest hydroplanes
back to Detroit today for the first
postwar renewal Of the internation-
al classic.
Craft ranging from small 18-foot-
ers powered with six-cylinder en-
gines up to 26-foot speedsters like
Guy Lombardo's Tempo vi, with its
16-cylinder power plant, were among
the contestants reported early today
to be ready for the first qualifying
heat.
Three 30-Mile Heats.
The winner OF the historic gold
urn will have to finish three 30-mile
heats over a 3-mile egg-shaped
course in the Detroit River between
the Detroit mainland and Belle Isle.
The Lombardo boat and Ernie
Wilson's Miss Canada III. entered
from the Muskoka Lakes Club, were
regarded generally as packing too
much power for any of the other
contestants. Like the other speed
sters, however, they have to go
through qualifying heat.
The IL boats finishing the 30-mile
qualifying trials in the fastest time
will be eligible for the two final
heats. For the craft finishing the
qualifying heat but crowded out OF
the fastest IL, silver cup consola-
tion race has been scheduled. II

Tired Redskins Irked
By 2-a-Day Drills;
E0ffer Futile Protest
By Lewis F. Atchison
star star Correspondent.

LOS ANGELES, Sept. AFFAIRS
In the Redskin training camp are
not going too smoothly and with
the big Ram game only five days
away the Tribe is as unprepared
to play it as a lo-year-old pianist
at a command performance.
Briefly. the situation is this: The
players are dog-tired of practicing
twice a day. while the coaching
staff thinks they still need lot
of work to be ready for Friday
nights game. The players say the
daily double takes all the starch
out of them and the coaches say
they still haven't had enough road
work and signal drills.
The players are fed to the teeth
with football-flve hours on the
field and two in the classroom. They
get it crammed into them with their
breakfast cereal, at lunch and as
dessert for dinner. They want up.
The coaches say they can't get too
much of the T-formation.
Baugh Pleads Players Case.
Sammy Baugh, who can see and
understand both sides of the prob
lem, went to Head Coach Turk Ed
wards yesterday to plead the play
ers' case. He thought more good
might be accomplished by packing
a lot of work and zip into one ses-
sion instead of two, but after care
full consideration Edwards decided
against it and at the start of yes
terday's afternoon drill announced
that the two-a-day program would
be continued through Wednesday.
Curiously, there is no sign OF
open hostility between players and
coaches, no loud beefing and GER
tainly no animosity toward Edwards.
It's more of showdown strike.
The players are taking it at an
easy pace but carrying out every
assignment. Some say they can't
give the old school try every time
they hit the field, that the pace is
too fast.
Advisory Coach Clark Shaugh-
messy is doing a slow burn. He
thinks the linemen should be made
to charge hard and fast on every
play, and that backs shouldn't quit
running when they pass the line
Of scrimmage. He noted that
Crazy Legs" Hirsch of the Chi
cago Rockets goes so yards every
time he takes the ball in signal
drill, practicing his feints, side
steps and stiff farming. He thinks
team should. cover the full length
of the field on four running plays
and race like mad through it all.
Wants to Avert Loafing.
Shaughnessy THINKS Edwards is
too soft with the squad, admitting
Il might be too tough" He's
afraid the Skins may get the habit
of loafing and carry it out on the
playing field where it would be
disastrous. Edwards Is trying to be
fair but firm, remembering that
some of the old boys needed more
time to round into shape.
Johnny Lookabaugh, the blond
Maryland end, was assigned to

alton today for more seasoning, re-
ducing the squad W 80 players. That
