Confident
Of Ryder Cup Win
Ry the Associoted Press

LONDON, Mar. 15.-British pro-
fessional golfers Dai Rees and
Charlie Ward, returning from a
tour of the American winter cir
cult, expressed confidence today
in the Ryder Cup teams chances
against the United States next
fall.
There is no reason why we
should not beat them" said Rees.
Charlie and I were up with the
best of the Americans all the
time-it was only on the green's
that we did not make it. The
greens are very different from
ours and on the shorter courses
putting becomes most of the
game.

of practice on their greens in the

A small county militia" with mo-
bilization orders in hand and their
trucks and other equipment ready
to roll is biding its time somewhat
impatiently for "S-Day."
It is a band Of some As men who,
under the command Of James O..
Harvey, Montgomery County road
supervisor, will man their plows at
any time of the day or night to re-
move snow from the county roads.
They have already gone out twice
this season but Mr.. Harvey says the
SHOWS didn't amount to much as far
as they were concerned. Their work
amounted to little more than a
rockies drill.
Here's How 1t Works.

Charter Board Question
Put ON Civil Service.

The Montgomery County Charter
Board today sought residents views
on the question of whether the
county civil service system should
be administered by one man or by
a board of three or more members,
The question was one of weekly
series of queries designed to obtain
information for the trainers OF a
proposed new charter form of local
government. A 1914 proposed char
ter provided for a three-man board
to classify jobs, establish qualif1ca-
tions and make regulations.
A 1945 law set up the existing one
man civil service commissioner sys-
tenn and pays the incumbent $4,6oo
annually, the board said. Tie pro-
posed three-member body would
serve without pay, the charter
drafters explained.

terstate Commission on the Potomac
River Basin, had asked to be heard
on the proposed measure.
