Prince Georges Petition
On zoninq 10 Be Reheard

A rezoning petition denied two
motnhs ago by the Prince Georges
County commissioners will be re-
heard June II as a result of a
County Circuit Court decision.
The commissioners yesterday
authorized the rehearing at the
county service building, Hyatts-
vile, on an application by the
Lightview Development Co. The
petition seeks semidetached home
coming for a 29-acre tract on Riggs
road near the Northwest Branch.
The commissioners said their
action was based on a court ruling
last week by Circuit Court Judge
j. Dudley Digges. The jurist, in
refusing a request to force the
commissioners to rezone the prop
erty. said testimony was mot
clear" as to reasons for rejecting
the coming petition March is.
The development company,
through its attorney, Hervey G..
Machen had contended the COM
misisoners' ruling was. based sole
ly upon protests of some residents
of the AGRA. The company claimed
the action should have been based
on its effect on the health, safety,
welfare and comfort Of the entire
community.

ToCutch Duck After
Futile Chase on Foot

At least one Arlington police
man would like to have a con-
vertible for a cruiser-it's easier
to catch ducks that way.
Policeman Jackey r. Shoots re-
sponded to a call from a woman
on North Twenty-f1fth road who
reported that a duck had wan
dered into her yard and she was
afraid "the dogs might get it."
The 10-pound. black and white
duck escaped the policeman's
grasp, flying "at about auto
height" over Buchanan street and
Glebe road. with MIR. Shoots In
pursuit.
AS he followed in his closed
cruiser, he lost sight of the bird
several times but traced it to q
home in the 4700 block Of North
Twenty-fifth street, where 9
housewife reported that the duci
had flown into her porch and
scared her half to death"
Mr.. Shoots made the capture
about a block away.
Today, the policeman is feed
ing the duck at his home while he
waits for the owner to claim it.

Edgemoor Property Owners
Oppose Parking Lot Program

Strong opposition to proposed
extension of the Bethesda busi-
ness district to take in part of
Edgemoor as part of the commu-
nity's public parking lot program
was voiced yesterday by home
owners in the residential develop
ment.
Approximately 20 property own
ers in Edgemoor appeared before
the Montgomery County Council
on a hearing on a bill authorizing
issuance of 100000 in bonds to
establish parking lots in the bust
ness district.
Earlier, the Council referred to
County Manager Irving G. Nc
Nayr a request by DR.. v. L. Eli
colt, county health officer, for en-
ployment of six dog catchers after
July l.
DR.. Ellicott pointed out in a
letter that a Council ordinance
provides for the impounding of
unvaccinated dogs running at
large after that date.
Four Are Named.
In other business, the council
submitted to the State Welfare
Department the names of four
persons from whom two must be
selected for membership on the
County Welfare Board; took -un-
der advisement requests by the
County Young Democratic Club
for better lighting and more street
signs on East-West highway and
by Sam Fig, Silver Spring builder,
for traffic lights on the highway
at Grubb road, Washington ave-
nue. and Beach drive, and author
lied the sale at auction at 10 am,
May 20, in the council hearing
room of delinquent tax properties
bought by the county in previous
years.
The four names submitted to
the State Welfare Board are DR..
William w Welsh, Rockville; G.
Gregg Everngam, Silver Spring
attorney; J.. Sterling Bowman,
Gaithersburg, and DR.. Robert A.
Bier, Silver Spring. The terms of
two County Welfare Board men,

bers expire May 81. They are
Adolph Guide and Mr.. Everngam.
Spokesman for the Edgemoor
delegation was DR.. Byron j. Olson.
He charged that the parking lot
bill proposes a most unjustif1able
encroachment on the residential
section of Edgemoor" and is a
most unwise bill as written"
If approved in its present form,
DR.. Olson said. the measure would
affect homes whose assessed value
is about 100000.
Benefit to Spectators.
This does not include the
values adjacent to this area which
will be seriously affected" he told
the council. This proposal will
destroy for these people one of
the precious things in our way of
life-the home, which represents
not ony the major interest. but,
in many instances, the investment
of a life savings"
He added the proposed extern
sion of the business district into
Edgemoor would open the latter
to real estate spectators.
DR.. Olson also criticized another
provision of the bill, which he
said. would permit any property
defined as within the business
district to be acquired by the
county and converted into a park.
ing lot without hearings, chang
ing of present coming or consid-
Grafton of adjacent residential
property"
He urged the Council to amend
the bill to include only existing
commercially zoned property fol
parking purposes and commended
that use of the Woodmont tri-
angle between Wisconsin avenue
and Old Georgetown road as a
business area lis adequate for the
