Liquor Board Upho|ds
One Ruling, Reverses
One inPrince Georges

The Maryland State Alcoholic
Beverage License Bureau today up
held one decision of the Prince
Georges County Board of Liquor
License Commissioners and reversed
another.
The State board, acting on ap-
peals made Wednesday at a hearing
in Upper Marlboro, upheld granting
Of license last September to sell
liquor at the Romano Inn, 37031a
Bladensburg road, Colmar Manor.
The license had been opposed by the
Mayor and Town Council of the
community.
A ruling which denied a permit to
sell beer in a colored grocery store
at I'LL Eastern avenue, Deanewood,
was reversed by the State board
after residents appeared in favor of
the license during the appeal hear
ing. Last September residents OF
the area registered protests against
the permit.
Market Denied Permit.
No decision has been returned or
another appeal by John S. Dyson
operator of general store at T. B.
who was refused permit last Sep
tember to sell liquor at his estab-
lishment.
The county board yesterday deniec
permit to sell liquor at an Oak
lawn self-service market, granted
four new applications and approved
the transfer OF five others.
Earl D. Stewart, operator of a
store at 7401 Allentown road, Oak
lawn, was turned down in his re-
quest for an off sale license after
nearly 80 residents of the vicinity
protested against such liquor dis
pensing establishments in the SUBJ
division.
Among those who protested in a
stormy session lasting nearly two
hours, was Representative Crawford,
Republican, of Michigan, resident
of the area.
The board approved granting q
license to Harry M. Shuman to sell
beer and light wines off the premises
at the Pantry, 1920 Hamilton street,
Hyattsville, despite opposition from
the Mayor and Town Council.
Another application, which had
received opposition from the Brent
wood-Mount Rainier chapter of the
Woman's Christian Temperance
Union, was approved. This permit
went to Hyman L. Gordon for beer
and light wine, off-sa1e, at 4301
Thirtieth street, Mount Rainier.
Other licenses approved were for
the Greenbelt Athletic Club to sell
beer, and for Isaac Enowitz, for an
off sale beer, wine and liquor permit
at the Hillside Market, 5607 Marl-
boro pike, Hillside.
Transfers Approved.
Transfer applications approved
include Myrtle B. Danhower from
Edward B. Danenhower for beer,
wine and liquor off sale at the Com
munity Store, Central avenue and
Grain highway; Robert H. McCleary
from Arthur A. Daniels, beer, on
sale, at 1907 Decatur street, Ed
monston; Dora L. Tucker from
Richard r. Jacoby, beer, wine and
liquor, off sale, at fuckers store,
Collington road, Mitchellville; Elige
Clayton from Grace C. Diggs, beer,
on sale, for CLIO H street, Fairmount
Heights, and the Midway Inn Hotel,
Inc, from Benjamin Curtis, for
beer and light wines, on sale, for
the Midway Inn, Main street, Upper
Marlboro.
No action was taken on the appli-
cation of the BIB Corp, which
sought an off sale permit to sell
beer and light wines at store at
Riggs and Ager roads, Green
Meadows. The board contended
that not enough time had elapsed
since a previous license, granted to
Charles E. Ball, sr., member of the
corporation, had been revoked. Mr.
Balls license was withdrawn last
November when it was learned he
was not a resident of the county.
