You had seen them before.

There was the girl with the
pretty blond hair and the faded
blue-striped T-shirt. She caught
your eye with her smile, and you
thought of the last time, when
she was on a back porch, un-
smiling.
And the boy who'd sat on the
doorstep. There'd been nothing
to entice him inside, and outside
was the pavement.
And the dark-haired girl who'd
helped her sister hanging the
wash-uncomplaining
And that other boy, whose hope
had been simple-he wanted to
play the bugle.
The first time you saw them it
was disheartening.
You knew-but you didn't,
really-that people lived deplor-
ably and suffered terrible defeats.
You knew-yet you didn't
that their children also suffered.
Something Is Done.
When you come face to face
with it, you wondered whatever
had let it get that way, and then
what could be done about it.
And you hoped fervently that
something would be done-if only
a little.
Well, it has been. And that
was what you saw the second
time.
Now the girl with the pretty
blond hair and the faded T-shirt
is in camp. It's the first time in
her life that she's had anything
like that happen to her, and even
with sadness behind her and
unhappily-ahead of her, she
can't help smiling.
And the boy who was on the
doorstep is there, too. And the
girl who hung the wash, and her
sister, and the boy who wanted
to play the bugle. He's playing
it-reveille, taps and chow calls in
between.
And there are 23s others, with
equally good reasons for being
there. And they're smiling, too.
They went, yesterday and Mon
day, to Camps Good Will and
Pleasant. out in the Virginia
woods.
Excitement Everywhere.
They raced for their cabins, and
the swimming ponds, and the
dining halls. They chartered ex-
citedly, held reunions with old
friends, made new. They ate
heartily and went to sleep soundly.
They quickly settled into a pat
tern of pleasure that won't end
for two weeks. And when it's over,
they'll carry the memory home

Alexandra Budget
Set at SAT- MiIIion;;
Pay Raises Voted
Star Staff Photos.

The Alexandria City Council last
night adopted a SAT million budg-
ct for 1951-52, after trimming
several items to give the citys
firemen and policemen a S300-a-
year across-the-boar pay raise.
Other city employees will get a
scheduled 5 per increase, and AL
exandria teachers will get a $3.50
a-year raise. The pay increases
exhausted a $4,000 reserve fund
for that purpose and ate into the
city's contingent fund, leaving
balance of $19,710 for emergencies
in the 12-month period.
The council also named Charles
E. Tomlin and Robert Clifton
Howard to the city school board,
after they were recommended for
the posts in a report by Council
man Leroy Bendheim. Mr.. Tom
lin was reelected from the north
ern school zone, and Mr.. Howard
was named for the southern zone.
Mr.. Howard, 43, and an alumnus
of the Alexandria public school
system, is the son of the founder
of the PTA in the city. On Mon
day, he will take the place OF
Board Member John P. Strauss
who declined reelection.
The city's controversial filling
station ordinance permitting self
service tanks was adopted, after
the council and spokesmen fol-
the independent and self f-serv-
ice station operators agreed on
an amendment requiring enough
attendants on duty to preserve
public safety.
The $500 pay raise for Alex
andria's rs policemen was written
into the budget, after a plea from
Attorney Armistead Booth, speak
ing for the Policemen Association
and the department. that mem
berS of the force suffer financial
hardship under the present pay
scale. He emphasized also that
higher pay in Arlington and Fair
fax Counties and on the Metro
politan Police force constitutes
such competition for recruits that
there are no applications pending
to fill vacancies in the Alexandria
department.
The budget does not include
appropriations for capital i'm
provements, which are to be in
cluded in a separate budget to be
drawn up within 20 days.
The date for referendum on
the method of electing the Mayor
was set for November 6, the day
of the general election. The coun-
Gil heard a letter from Corpora
ton Court Judge William P.
Woolls pointing out referendums
may be held at any time, except
on the day of party primaries.
The Democratic primary in Alex
andria is set for August Z.

Arlington Republicans today
were prepared to make their
strongest bid for control of the
county government after select

the candidates were selected with
out opposition and nominations
were closed after a sufficient
number of candidates were

were nominated were sheriff and

for these two Offices at later
date.

predicted victory for him.
The Republicans chose Robert
A. Peck, Arlington automobile ex-
ecutive, and George M. Rowzee, jr.,
assistant cashier of the Lincoln
National Bank in Washington, as
their candidates for the two
County Board seats.
Three Democrats and two non
partisanS already are in the con-
test for positions on the board. Sc
lection of G. o. P. candidates will
make NoVember's election the first
time since 1914 that the party has
competed for County Board seat.
In the past seven years, Repub-
licans have been content to go
along with non-partisans and it
has been during the period of Re-
publican cooperation that nom
partisans have won control of the
County Board from the Democrats.

Court Action Deferred
In Counfy's Fight 10
Reopen Crossing

Final appeals to the Baltimore
& Ohio Railroad and the State
Roads Commission will be made
son by the Prince Georges County
commissioners, in an effort to avert
court action aimed at reopening of
the Berwyn grade crossing.
The commissioners, after unani-
approving a motion to start
legal proceedings, decided yester-
day, in Upper Marlboro, to confer
with railroad and roads repre-
sentatives in a last try for an
amicable agreement.
Commissioner Edward j. Waters
offered the motion when he was
told the roads commission had
lined up with the B. g. o. to keep
the crossing closed.
Mr.. Waters said the crossing was
closed illegally several years ago
and that, as result, residents of
Berwyn, Berwyn Heights and Col
lege Park must detour more than a
mile to reach the Greenbelt over
pass.
Closed to Get Oyerpass.
The railroad and the roads
group agreed to close the crossing
in order to obtain Federal funds
for construction of the Greenbelt
overpass and neither is willing to
recede from that stand.
Additional criticism of roads
commission policies came at the
meeting. when the board voted to
back Commissioner Daniel A.
Abbott's demand that detours
around construction work on
Route S between the. District Line
and Mattawoman Swamp be kept
in reasonably dust-free and rut-
free condition.
Another letter from the roads
commission informed the board
that the county's share of the
cost of the proposed widening of
IA mile segment of Marlboro
pike from the District to Walker
Mil road would be $56,374. The
commissioners reserved decision as
to whether they will approve the
plan.
Asphalt Purchase Approved.
Purchase of 400 00O gallons nj
liquid asphalt for use on county
roads during the coming year was
approved. The $95, 200 contract
went to the Lansdell Co. of Balti-
more.
A delegation of some 80 persons
in the hearing room to oppose
a permit for an amusement park
about mile north of Clinton, left
smiling and without a word when
the applicant. Joseph S. Hart OF
Clinton. withdrew the request.
Mr.. Hart, an official of Glen
Echo Park, dropped the proposal
it was explained, when he learned
that residents of the section OBJ
jected to the installation.
Tax Comment Asked.
In letter signed by it's presi-
dent, Hyman j. Blond, the Carole
Heights Citizens Association asked
the commissioners to comment or
the possibility of levying a real
estate tax to support Chillum ano
Adelphi volunteer fire department
activities.
Opposition was expressed by the
civic unit to a 1851 act of the
State Legislature, imposing prop
erty taxes for fire protection ir
the fourth and fifth precincts ot
the 17th election district.
The association, the letter re-
cited. does not oppose the principle
Iof paying outlying fire companies
but does object to IAN inf1exible
law which is permanent in nature
and may prove wholly inadequate. -

The new department will oper-
