More books than bubble gum ma,
develop from the legacy left te
398 first. second and third graders
of John Kerr School here by ar
elderly eccentric.
Speculation on how to spend the
money went on today in class
rooms where all the children ex-
pect to receive - to s5 each or
the day before Christmas and
Easter holidays.
The 80-year-old fruit store
proprietor who willed the income
from an estate valued at more
than 100000 to his small friends
had explained informally he hoped
the youngsters would spend their
money on anything their hearts
desired. including bubble gum.
Charles B. Henry's will, however
specified the legacy be used fol
"furtherance of his or her OBJ
tainment of an education"
Bank Named Trustee.
sThe view that something con-
structive and educational should
grow out of the legacy Is held by
trust officerss;of the Shenandoah
Valley National Bank, which Mr..
Henry named as executor and
trustee of the fund.
In complete agreement with this
idea Is Miss Lola v. Moore. princi-
pal OF John Kerr School. What
wonderful books we could buy for
our library with that money"
Miss More said.
The pupils themselves had other
views. They pointed out that Mr..
Henry always wanted them to
have fun and was no man TO hang
back If a matter Of pocket change
stood between them and q movie

ice cream sodas.
Mr.. Henry. who died April %
in an old frame dwelling at 728
South Loudoun street, where he
had sold fruit for more years than
the oldest residents could remen1-
ber, never missed a movie. The
price of admission was the only
money he ever seemed to spend
on himself.

He dressed in old clothes. cooked
his own meals and ate and slept
in the kitchen. the neighbors said,
because he wished the rest OF the
house to remain exactly as his

Lane Due 10 Rule Today
On Gambling Question
In Maryland Counties
spseiel oispoteh 10 The sses

ANNAPOLIS. Md, May 6.-Gov
Lane is expected to- rule today on
the question OF who should decide
gambling issues in the counties OF
Maryland.
His decision will authorize or
deny a slot machine referendum
in Charles County and perhaps
determine whether legalization of
the devices is to be halted or con-
tinued throughout the State.
The Governor took the question
under advisement yesterday after
a group of Charles County religious
and civic leaders came to the State
House to urge him to veto a
measure passed by the General
Assembly. The bill provides for a
special election June 81!
Prince Georges Bill Included.
Other gaming legislation among
the several bills awaiting action
before the deadline tomorrow in
cludes a slot machine measure for
Prince Georges County. which also
provides for a special election.
The sole question before the
Executive Department. the Gov
ernor said after the hearing, is
whether I can properly withhold
from the people the right to de-
eide, what L believe is. moral
issue" /" &
Upon the premise that he did
not have such a right, he indi-
Gated, similar bills for st. Marys
and Calvert Counties i eceived ex-
ecutiye approval. In only one
other county. Anne Arundel. are

chimes were sanctioned by legis-
lative act signed by Gov. O'Conor.
Recalls vetoes.
Gov. Lane recalled that in the
last two years he had vetoed 10
or II gambling bills which did
not include referendum provisions.
Urging the Governor to build a
dam to stop the flow Of gambling. :"
the Rev. Harold A. Milstead.
pastor Of Waldorf Methodist
Church. said q veto should not be
considered an evasion of demo-
cratic procedure.
Mr.. Milstead told the Governor
that opposition to the measure
is spearheaded by the newly
formed Charles County Ministerial
Association and has the support
of most of the county's civic
organizations.
Some 1000 machines we're
operating illegally In the county
until an order" from a mysterious
source brought the devices to q
halt a few days ago.
Gov. Lane recalled that a special
grand jury session was called in
the county last August to investi-
gate alleged widespread gambling
and liquor law violations. He
asked how many of the group had
appeared before the grand jury.
There was no reply.
Three women were among those
who spoke at the hearing. They
were Miss Eva Turner. principal of
Waldorf Elementary School: Mrs.
Ernest Neave Of the Hughesville
Homemakers' Club and Mrs. Cor
ham Hubbard of Indian Head.
