To questions on how medical

of the doctors suggested stressing
academically the advantages of

who originally lived in the coun-

graduated from medical school.

Opposes Rezoning
For 2-Fami|y Homes

| Denial of a zoning petition to
permit erection OF two-family OF
mi-detached homes on 20 acres
between Georgia avenue and Viers
Mill road near Wheaton has been
recommended by the Maryland
National Capital Park and Plan

At the same time, the commits
sion recommended approval by the

two petitions requesting apart
ment house and commercial zon-
ing of land in Wheaton and
Kensington.
The application for reclassifica-
ton from residential A to B of
the 29-acre tract was filed by
the j. E. Smith Construction
Co. through Attorney William
Wheeler. The property is adjacent
to Connecticut Avenue Estates. a
large semi-detached home devel-
opment along Viers Mill road.
In its opinion, the commission's s
planning staff recalled it had op-
posed the Connecticut Avenue
Estates project on the ground the
area already is developed with
single e-fainiIy detached homes.
The staff continues TO believe" /"
the opinion stated, that the dem
sity OF population caused by this

that the construction company's
application appears to offer nc
benefit to anyone save the OBJ
vious pecuniary advantage that
would accrue to the petitioner"
Approval of the request, the

must treat is less than that of a

Unfavorable living conditions
the lack of hospital connections

reasons cited by the answering
