that under the law the full faith
and credit of the entire community
is pledged to the services of bonds
Since it was clear from this ar
rangement that old Rockville would
not be penalized by the develop
ments in the annexed areas, and it
was proved that each service rend-
cred to the new areas would be
paid for by the particular citizens
who received the service and only
by them, objections were not raised
by either group. Additional clear
ance was required from the region
al body of the National Park and
Planning Commission. This was
readily obtained. The Commission
even relinquished it's right to col
lect park and planning taxes in the
area, the only requirement being
that Rockville would continue the
coming previously created. All
eclearances obtained, til bills were
given to the state senator, passed
without further ado, and signed.
Tie bills were not drafted, as
had been the practice in the past,
by local attorneys. They were
drafted by DR.. Flack of the De-
partment of Legislative Reference.
1t was felt advisable to have the
financial provisions checked bv "A
firm of attorneys experienced in
this field - Niles, Barton, Morrow
and Yost - through &their most
able Mr.. Buckler.
The bills were enacted by the
General Assembly without organ
lied opposition. 1t might be well to
note that Rockville's population in
1896 was about 1,4O0; in 1912
about $500; and in 1949 it was
about $500.

Damasucs Defeats Pages"

DamaSucS DeIeatS RACES
= The Damascus Hornets defeated
the Capital page" Boys at Da-
mascus by a score of 1922. The
Hornets led all the way and were
pulling away as the game ended.
The pages" were not as deep in
reserves as Damascus and were
firing as the game ended. The
Damascus j. V. took the first game
in easy fashion. Aside from play
ing ball with these boys, much was
learned about the life of page
boy and the duties they were called
upon to perform.
Hornettes and Po0lesville
On Friday, February IL, the
Damascus Hornettes' Varsity squad
iourneyed to Poolesville to play
them on their own court. The
limited dribble was used for one
half of the game and the UNI
limited dribble for the other half.
The game was an easy take for
the Holnettes as they took it IL
Is.
Virginia Day was high scorer
with 40 points to her credit. Gin
ny" is also the highest individual
scorer "Ginny" is sophomore
now, think of the basketball career
she has ahead of her!
The Hornettes next game will
be with Sherwood. This game de-
ciGes whether the Hornettes will
play in the county tournament.

By act of the General Assembly
passed in 1949, the territory COM
prising the City of Rockville was
increased skiold from one
square mile to six square miles.
This statement is being prepared
in the hope that some of tie lessons
learned by Rockville in the drive
for the extension of its boundaries
may be profitable to other COM
munities.
The necessity for this expansion
was realized as early as 1884. By
that time the amount of land avail
able for purpose of residential de-
Nelopment was rapidly becoming
exhausted, and the city fathers

Building Campaign
For Baptist Church

For some time past we, the
pastor and members of First Bap-
tist church of Port Clinton, have
been eagerly looking forward tc
holding our next Building Func
Rally January 22nd at special !
o'clock service in our new church
home, located on Beech street be-
tween State and Third streets.
The selection of this date for
our initial entry into the new
building, though incomplete, seem
ed possible in the Judgment OF
the contractors, as well as our
own; such a possibility being con-
tingent however on favorable
weather conditions.
But in this respect, we have re-
Gently experienced such run Of
most unfavorable weather, espe-
cially for carrying on building ac-
tivities, as to stamp it as being
almost abnormal; each week has
carried its quota Of rain, hail,
sleet, snow and freezing tempera-
ture to such an extent, as to have
delayed, hindered, and even halted
the work Of building construction
in some cases; unfortunately we
regret to announce that we find
ourselves in this latter classilica-
tion.
Our limited finances, rapidly
reaching the vanishing point, must
be supplemented however, by ad-
ditional funds at once to enable US
to carry on our construction pro-
gram to completion; therefore we
take this means and occasion to
announce to all our friends and
well wishers, that necessity com
pels us to hold our Building Fund
Rally, which is most urgent, at
the Community Hall, Stop No. 80,
Route 2, on the date and hour as
formerly planned, Sunday Janu-
ary 22nd, 3 o'clock p. m.
An interesting outside speaker,
together with special music, will
serve to enhance the service. The
churches and other organizations
who so kindly consented to take
an offering to help US, will please
have their representative on hand
to present same at this service;
and the 'Ten Dollar Every Mem
Der Fund will be called for at
this time also.
Sincerely,
REV. PHILIP l.. PRYOR, Pastor
