Commemorative Attorney Law
renee w. Douglas today said he will
file an intervening petition asking
that the Arlington School Board be
admitted as an interested party to
suit by Frank l.. Ball, jr., county

Mr.. Douglas said his petition. to

based on the principle that any de-
cision returned by the Circuit Court
Is material to the board.
Meanwhile, Mr.. Ball said he will
ask Circuit Court Judge Walter T..
Mccarthy to set date for a hear
ing on the intervening petition and
the original plea.
The long-deferred case originally
was filed last February when Mr..
Ball asked for a writ of mandamus
to force a different procedure Of
handling school athletic funds.
Last action of the many legal
procedures through which the case
has passed was denial by Judge Nc
Carthy on May Is of school plea
to dismiss the suit.
At that time, Judge Mccarthy
said he did not want to hear the
case while schools were in session.
because 1t would disrupt educational
functions.
