Editorial on Maryland Athletics

"If any concrete development

collegiate athletics included-and
very often they are founded on
nothing but miSinformation.
Amy report by a group looking
into its own policies, such as the

Virginia Tech Will Grant
New Degree in Education
By the Associated Press

BLACKSBURG, Va, Dec. g.
The Board of Visitors of Virginia
Tech has approved the granting of
a new professional degree of mas
ter of education, President Walter
S. Newman announced yesterday
The board authorized the presi-
dent to appoint fellows by cour-
tesy as is done at other centers of
graduate instruction and research.
These appointments would be lin
tied to holders of the Ph.D. degree
or equivalent status.
The new graduate degree is Of
fered for the professional prepa-
ration of teachers. The primary
difference between the new degree
and the master of science degree
is that instead of the candidate
writing thesis, field problems or
additional courses will be required.
The master of education degree
also will be offered at Radford
College, women's division of Tech
in elementary education.

noted they conformed to South

County Press Hur|s
New Charge in Fight
For Open Meetings

Continuing its campaign against
closed sessions of the Montgom-
cry County Council, the County
Press Association yesterday ac.
cused the council of "misinter.
Ipreting" the provision in the
county charter relating to open
meetings.
According to the association, the
provision in question states that
"the executive sessions of the
County Council shall be open OF
closed to the public from time to
time as the council may deter
mine"
Under present practice, how
ever, the association said the
council does not determine wheth-
er to discuss its business at open
meetings. Such decisions are
made only by the council presi-
dent.
The press group added that the
phrase from time to time" clearly
indicates that it is the sense of
the charter that closed meetings
should not be held as a regular
weekly procedure as is done now
The present council practice of
meeting in closed session every
Tuesday morning prior to an open
session during the afternoon is
contrary to the intent of those
who drafted the charter, the asso-
citation said.
"We urge" the association said,
that all items on the councils
agenda be discussed openly, ex-
cept those affecting land values
or personnel"
Yesterdays resolution was pre-
sented by association president
Ernie Tannen on behalf of the
groups executive board.
The group met at Station
WGAY, Silver Spring, in conjunc-
ton with the stations observance

Mr.. Miles said reasons given by
the School Board for refusing to-
participate were that the meeting

and because adequate opportunity
had been provided at other meet
