'Negro's Suit Asks
Maryland to Pay
For Alaska Course
by the Associated Press

BALTIMORE, May II. - A
Negro student had suit on file
today asking the State of Mary
land to pay him the difference
between what a summer course in
Ianthropology would cost at the
University of Maryland and what
it costs at the University OF
Alaska.
The student, Herbert M. Frisby,
filed mandamus action against
the Commission for Scholarships
for Negroes, a State agency.
He asks $1,752, representing the
difference between the s121.21
cost at the University of Mary
land and the cost at the Univer-
|sity of Alaska.
Mr.. Frisby alleges in his Su.
perior Court suit that an educa-
tion in anthropology is not avail
able to him at Morgan State OF
Princess Anne Colleges for Ne
Igroes.
The commission has allowed
him a grant of $364.91, which he
alleges does not take into con-
|sideration costs of travel, board
and lodging. He charges that
the commission is legally liable
for those expenses.

Park and Planning Commission
Mr. Burrage, in a letter to
Thomas c. Kelley, chairman o1
the Upper Montgomery Planning
Commission, also criticized that
agency for its inactivity in safe
guarding the excellent residential
qualities of much of the Upper
Montgomery County area "
The Upper Montgomery Plan
ming Commission was appointed
by the County Council about a
year ago, since the Park and
Planning Commissions jurisdic-
ton extends only over the SUBJ
urban area.
In his letter, Mr.. Burrage said
the absence of zoning and SUBJ
division controls in the rural
sections sis an invitation to hasty
poorly designed and speculative
land development"

James j. Corbalis. jr., Fairfax

calculations show that the District
contributes SO per cent of the

But they expressed the view that

Mr. Moore replied that the
water board has control over
separate jurisdiction, not regional
groups, such as the interim CON-
mit6ee. He said it seemed logical
to the board to meet the pollution
problem step by STEP,
He read a telegram signed by
John Brookfield of the Alexandria
Izak Walton League, urging the
water board not to let Alexandria
use the regional survey as an
excuse to delay construction of
disposal facilities.
Mr.. Moore said Alexandria had
failed to keep its word to the
Water Board in the past and
pointed cut that the city had per-
mitted Hunting Towers Apart
ments to connect to the NUM-
cipal sewer system, despite orders
to the contrary from the Water
Board.
Mr.. Smoots replied that was the
only specific instance he could
recall that Alexandria had dis
obeyed Water Board orders.
Other delays were caused, he said,
first, by having to get authority
in the new charter for a sewer
bond issue referendum, and Sec
ond. by annexation proceedings
against Fairfax County, which still

The new bill by Representative
Smith was developed by planners
in the Old Dominion, who dis
closed its details Wednesday
night.
The Smith measure would set up
a National Capital Regional Plan
ming Council of eight members,

All powers of the NCPPC relat-

transferred to the new council,
and the NCPPC would be changed
to the District Planning and Zon-
ing Commission.
The District Zoning Commission
would be abolished and its pow
ers transferred to the District
Commissioners. The District Zon-
ing Advisory Council would be
abolished and its powers trans
ferred to the new District Plan
ming and Zoning Commission, sue
cessor to the NCPPC.
The proposed National Capital

Res ervists May
Be Released

Washington (P)-Assistant
Secretary of Defense Anna
Rosenberg said this week the
Army hopes by September to
begin releasing enlisted re-
servists who were called to
duty involuntarily.
She testified before a House
armed services subcommittee
which is holding hearings on
the reserve program.
Mrs. Rosenberg added that
the Army also has planned to
release other reservists, officer
and enlisted.
She said the Marine Corps
will begin releasing it's mac
tive reservists in June, 1851
and plans that by July. 1852
no Marine reservists will be
on active duty involuntarily.
The Navy and Airforce are
slated to release their inactive
enlisted reservists next July.
The fulfillment of all these
plans is dependent on there
being no deterioration of the
international situation. Mrs.
Rosenberg said.
