7 Tenant Farmers Burned
As One Tries 10 Light Fire

Two Baden (Md.) tenant farm
ers were burned today. one crit
ically. when a fire swept through
a room of their bungalow.
Doctors at Casualty Hospital,
where both victims were taken,
held little hope for Joseph Fleet,
about so, colored. Mr.. Fleet, a
tenant on the farm of Elmer
Baden, suffered second and third
degree burns of the entire body.
Mrs. Louise Harper, AZ, colored,
the other victim, suffered first,
second and third degree burns of
her face and body and several cuts.
Her condition was reported as
serious.
Chief Oron Sherbert of the
Upper Marlboro Volunteer Fire
Department, said the blaze caused
only about $50 damage to the
living room. He said it started
when Mrs. Harper attempted to
kindle a wood stove fire by throw
ing oil on it.

Montgomery Students
Urge Sex Coursesin
County High Schools

sJablishment of sew education
courses in all Montgomery County
junior and senior high schools was
advocated last night by students
of the schools.
They made the suggestion at
a panel discussion at Leland
Junior High School, one of a
series conducted by the Institute
for Personal and Family Living.
Sponsors of the series include
the Juvenile Court, parent-teacher
associa tions. Social Hygiene
Agency, Board of Education and
the Health Department.
No Punches Pulled.
Selling the opportunity to pre-
sent their views, the students
pulled no punches in criticizing
the "hush-hush' attitude toward
sex in school and at home.
Miey Mathis of Bethesda Chevy
Chase High School urged parents
and teachers to "call a spade a
spade"
after all, it's just life," he de-
clared.
Ernestine Brown, Richar
Montgomery High School, Rock
vile, said sex should be treated
as something normal" so that
childen would not get "miscon-
ceptions" from outside sources.
She also said all boys and girls
should not be condemned because
of the "misdeeds" of a few.
Separate Glasses Urged.
The students agreed that fol
the present it would be better
to have separate sex education
classes for boys and girls. Later
the subject could be taught ir
mixed groups. they said.
A recommendation that girls
take their dates" home to become
acquainted with the girls parents
was advanced by Guy Harding of
Damascus High School.
He said this would prevent the
parents from worrying if the girls
are delayed in getting home from
dates. t
Another student, Carmen Lovre,
Montgomery Hills Junior High,
said girls should help boys develop
social graces" on dates. She con-
tended this is necessary because
girls develop faster" than boys.
DR.. Fern Schneider. county high
school supervisor, acted as mod
orator.

Suburban Hospital
Drive Tops $4,000

Suburban Hospital. Bethesda,
has reached more than two thirds
of it's $50, 0,000-drive goal. The
drive, which opened January 10,
has netted $40,133.59 to date. AL
though the campaign has officially
ended, Mrs. Benjamin A. Powell,
chairman, said the final figure
would be announced February 10.
Many of the committees, she ex-
planned, have not finished their
collections.
Francis w. Hill, president of the
hospitals Board of Trustees, ex-
pressed his appreciation to Mrs.
Powell and "the many people who
have so generously worked with
her in carrying on the campaign" I"
He said he was confident that
when all the contributions are re-
turned, our full goal shall have
been achieved"
Mrs. Powell pointed out that the
$40, 1889 figure did not include
$4,350 worth of equipment donated
to the institution.

Arlington Builders Sued
BY Berkshire Home Owner

An Arlington construction COM
pany has been sued for $1,000 by
a home owner who charges that
his heating system Is inadequate
Lester r. Conley, attorney for

sent So other property owners
with a similar complaint against
the builder, Luria Construction
Co., of 2300 Wilson boulevard.
The suit, filed in Arlington
Circuit Court, is brought in be-
half of 1t. Comdr. John w. Gra-
ham, 1929 North Pocomoke street.
Mr.. Conley said the company
built SO brick homes in a subdi-
vision known as Berkshire two

tribution system was not properly

.Conferees Due
ToMeet Today
|0n Hatch Act
Strong Opposition
To Amendment May
Delay Final Approval

Senate and House conferees
were to meet today on the Hatch
Act amendment to let residents in
areas near Washington partici-
pate in party politics.
The bill faced determined op-
position on the part of many
taking part in local government.
In Arlington the charge was made
that the amendment was designed
to strengthen the Democratic ma
chine.
Predictions that the bill is like
ly to be vetoed by the President
came from Senator Humphrey of
Minnesota and Representative
Mitchell of Washington, both
Democrats.
Postponement Urged.
Senator Humphrey said he has
written Senator Stennis of Mis-
sissippi, chairman of the Senate
conferees, asking that action on
the bill be postponed until he has
had an opportunity to propose
amendments.
Senator Humphrey said that the
section of the bill affecting resi-
dents in the nearby areas was
added without hearings or ade-
quate notice and creates prob
lens worthy of further study"
Mr.; Mitchell said the prudent
course" in respect to this section
would be to handle it as a separate
bill.
Letter Quoted.
He wrote Representative Nor
ton. of New Jersey, chairman of
the House conferees:
THE representatives of mary
citizen and Federal worker organi-
cations in the vicinity of the Dis
trict of Columbia vigorously claim
that there are number of serious
defects and antiquities in this
section as it now stands"
Harley M. Williams, chairman
of the Arlington Better Govern
ment League, said his organiza-
tlon is convinced that Federal
employees and the communities of
the Washington area have little
to gain and much to lose by the
proposed legislation.
He referred to the section under
attack as the "Smith-Byrd rider"
a reference to Senator Byrd and
Representative Smith, Democrats,
of Virginia.
