The Prince Georges County
commissioners yesterday denied a
request of the Hyattsville Pres
byterian Church for a tax exemp-
ton on property adjoining the
church.
The property in question was
purchased a few months ago from
T. Hammond Welsh. former
county commissioner. Facing on
Forty-second avenue, it includes
a house.
In denying the request, the
commissioners accepted a recon-
mendation by Louis w. Kutsch,
County Supervisor of Assessments.
Mr.. Kutsch pointed out, in letter
to the commissioners, that the
property is being rented by the
church for SIS a month and il
not being used exclusively for
church purposes. The law re-
quires exclusive church use be-
fore an exemption may be granted

The commissioners named H

sentative on the County Welfare
Board. He replaces Norman H

N. & A. Transfer
To D. T.. Buses Ends

Discontinuance Of transfers be-
tween w. M. g. A. rush-hour buses
and Capital Transit buses today
will raise the daily round-trip
transportation costs of about 400
Federal employees at Suitland, Md,
by Is cents.
The Maryland transit firm an
nounced yesterday it no longer
would honor Capital Transit trans
fers on rush-hour buses travelling
between Barney Circle and Suit
land, Md. Nor will it issue trans
fers which passengers have used
in the past on Capital Transit
buses from Barney Circle to points
in the District.
A company spokesman said dis
continuance of the transfers was
found necessary because w. M.
& A. has never been authorized
by the Interstate Commerce Com
mission to issue them on inter-
state lines, such as the Barney
Circle rush-hour service. The only
transfer arrangement that ICC has
sanctioned for w. M. & A. and
Capital Transit is on lines en-
tirely within the District.
w. M. & A. officials pointed out
that the company's buses which
run to Suitland from Eleventh
street and Pennsylvania avenue
NV. are mt affected by the new
order. The total fare to Suitland
on that line will remain Is cents,
which company officials said was
the only suburban fare in the
washington Area that has never
been increased.

Q'DonneII May Head
Toll Bridge Office
BY the Assoeioted Press

BALTIMORE, Dec. 13.-The
Sun said today that Louis j.
ODonnell, now assistant to the
Governor, may head an Office to
be set up here for the operation
OF State-owned toll bridges. The
post would pay $4,000 year.
Mr.. O'Donnell, a former mem
ber of the Baltimore Sun staff,
has held his present job since
Gov. Lane was insugurated in
1947. He will lose it when Gov.
Lane is succeeded by Republican
Theodore r. McKeldin on jan
uary 10.
The Sun said: "It was believed
at one time that Mr.. O'Donnell
would go to Hagerstown to become
associated with the newspapers
there (Herald and MaiD, in which
Mr.. Lane is interested.
According to recent reports,
however, the Governor will re-
turn to his home city of Hagers-
town when his administration
ends. But will, after a trip
to Europe, establish a business in
Baltimore, and probably will live
in Baltimore County"
Neither the Governor nor Mr..
ODonnell were available immedi-
ately for comment.

full time for safety work with
county schools.
In letter, Mr.. Hammond said
Prince Georges County ranks sec
ond only to Baltimore County in
traffic fatalities in the State.
With a well-rounded police
enforcement group. it is quite
possible that a very definite
decrease can be shown in the
accident fatality figures" Mr..
Hammond said.
Points to Other Areas.
The AAA man also declared
Prince Georges County is the only
area in Metropolitan Washington
that does not have a police Of
ficer assigned full time to safety
work with school pupils.
The second recommendation
was by a Joint Committee Of the
Prince Georges Takoma Park
Citizens Association and urged
the commissioners to give care
full consideration in the appoint
ment of new police chief. A
letter from the group urged in
creasing the salary for the posi-
ton in order to attract a man
"of the required caliber."
Commissioners Thomas E. Lati-
mer and Daniel A. Abbott, along
with Adrian P. Fisher, commits
sioners' attorney, were named to
attend q meeting of the Western
Shore commissioners Associa-
ton today In Annapolis. The
gathering will be held jointly with

Plans New Civic LEAGUE

A group Of Prince Georges
clergy and laymen met recently at
st. Johns Episcopal Church,
Mount Rainer, to plan a new civic
league.
Although their program calls
for promotion of better govern
ment and civic improvement in
the county, the group was
prompted mainly by the "liquor
situation" spokesmen said.
There are, too many taverns
and many are not operating
within the law" said the Rev.
Robert Clarke, rector of st. Johns
and temporary chairman of the
group.
The IL men elected Mr.. P. E.

Man Seriously Burned
Fighting Garage Fire

A handyman was seriously
burned today in a fire that swept
the garage and servants quarters
adjoining the home of DR.. Joseph
Horgan, Washington surgeon, near
Potomac, Md.
The employe, Robert Rucker.
So. colored, suffered burns on the
body, head, arms and legs fight
ing the blaze which started in
his room.
A maid, Miss Villa Mae Smith,
colored, who slept in the other
room of the quarters. awakened in
time to climb through a window
and arouse Mr.. Horgan. He in
turn called the Rockville Fire De-
partment, which saved the house
on the Glen n-Travilah road.
DR.. Horgan was unable to raise
the door to the garage because
the heat melted the mechanism.
AS result, two cars parked there
were almost a total loss. DR..
Horgan estimated the damage to
the cars alone at $4,000.

What do st. Johns Individuals
tic scholars think of the matter
of admitting women to the fold?
Just fodder for the 300 mid
shipmen only few blocks away,
one faction holds.
What's worse, some of the men
lament, their serious discussions
run the danger of being turned
into hen parties.
But the schools president, DR..
Richard D. Weigle, says the matter
is purely an administrative one.
And reports indicate the alumni
are pretty much divided on the
question. College Official Chesley
Wilson says some 200 graduates
who attended after inception of
the new program" are not in
favor of the plan.
The new program, put in effect
in 1887, calls for the study of 100
books by the greatest authors of

Initiation PeriIs
School Projects
Broome Says Prices
Of Materials Have
Risen IS to 20 Pct.

Montgomery County'S school
construction program is in dan
ger of begging down" because
of rising costs, according to Supt.
of Schools Edwin w. Broome.
Building material prices have
gone up Is to 20 per cent in the
last few months, DR.. Broome said
today.
There has been no delay in
our building program so far" he
said. ''but I don't know how we
can continue unless We get more
money"
The situation has been pointed
up in the cases of three projects
for which bids are considerably
in excess Of appropriations, fore
ing the School Board to meet with
the County Council yesterday in
an effort to find solution.
Gymnasium Included.
The projects are the Bethesda
Chevy Chase High School gymna-
SUM. for which the low bid ex-
ceeds the $257,000 appropriation
by about $69,500; an addition to
the East Rockville Elementary
School. for which the bid is about
$37,700 more than the $196,000
appropriation, and the Viers Mill
Elementary School addition, for
which the bid exceeds the $780,
900 appropriation by about $12, 400.
Board officials said some reduce
tions can be made in the costs
of the three projects by changing
materials and eliminating certain
proposals in the architectural
plans.
But even if this is done, only
the Viers Mill addition would
come within the appropriation.
the officials explained.
They said low bidders for each
of the three projects are willing
to go ahead with the Jobs if they
receive assurance that the neces-
sary additional funds will be pro.
vided in the next budget. The
Council took the matter under
advisement.
Teachers Appointed.
At It's meeting yesterday, the
School Board appointed the fol-
lowing elementary school teachers:
Mrs. Joan w. Gott, Laytons-
vile; Mrs. Elizabeth McCutcheon,

ANNAPOLIS. Dec. 13.-The
structure OF student government
in 256-year- old st. Johns Col
lege was shaken to its founda-
tions here last night over the
issue of .o-education-before a
single coed even dare put her
signature on a registration blank
Just the talk about women was
enough to bring about a move
ment to abandon the politi-the
student self-governing organiza-
ton.
The movement was defeated in
a vote, but not until a few stu
dents had a chance to say the
organization doesn't even exist
any more in fact.
A member of the nine man Ex-
ecutive Committee, Douglas Boyce
of Salt Lake City, said the group
got vague answers from the ad-
ministration when the question of
admitting women first came up.
He charged the administration
reached its decision to admit so
