Two License Applications
Weighed by ABC Board

The Alcoholic Beverage Control
Board today has under considera-
tion two applications for licenses.
Jerome Louis Zanelotti. pro-
prietor of the Friendly Grill, 1928
N street NV, yesterday appeared
before the board and asked for
license to sell beer and light wines
in his grill. which does not now
have a license. The issuance of
the license was protested by
Thomas M. Hysong and his BROTH
er Jerry E., who told the board
that a restaurant selling beer and
wine across the street from their
funeral parlor would lower the
standard of the neighborhood.
Mr.. Zanelotti, who said he went
to school with one of the Hysong
brothers and is friendly with them,
told the board that. on days when
there is a funeral from the Hysong
establishment, he had told them
he would not sell beer or wine until
3 pm.
The license to sell beer and light
wines off the premises asked for
by Dayid Miller. a grocer, at 104 H
street NV, was protested by two
other liquor dealers in the neigh
porhood. David Steingart. who
conducts a grocery store at 109 H
street NV, objected to the is
suance of the license, although
he holds one. He said there is not
enough business for another store.
Isadore Kline, owner of a pack
age store at lot H street NV,
said there are five stores now SELL
ing liquor and there is not enough
business in the area.

The advance train came from
the circus winter quarters at

|Negro's Suit Asks
Maryland to Pay
For Alaska Course
By he Asseeioted Press

BALTIMORE, May IL. - 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
lit 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 $121.21
cost at the University of Mary
land and the cost at the Univer-
ISity of Alaska.
Mr.. Frisby alleges in his Su-
Iperior Court suit that an educa-
ton in anthropology is not avail
able to him at Morgan State or
Princess Anne Colleges for Ne
groes.
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.

ID. {. Action Expected
To Restore ; Hospitals
To INDECENT Program

The Commissioners were ex-
pected to act today to reinState
three voluntary hospitals recon-
mended for exclusion from the
Districts INDECENT patient care
program.
Commissioner F. Joseph Dono-
hue has been preparing a report
on the subject for presentation to
his fellow city heads.
District officials indicated at
the closed budget hearings before
the House subcommittee. on Dis
trict appropriations that Provi-
dence, Garfield and Episcopal
Hospitals would be restored to the
program, it was learned.
$135,000 Budget Cut.
The Districts budget proposal
for the fiscal year 1852 carries only
$4,000 for the medical charities
program, a cut of $135. 900 from
the amount appropriated this
fiscal year.
Lay and medical officials of the
hospitals have protested vigorous
ly the move to exclude three of the
eight voluntary institutions with
which the city has been contract
ing for INDECENT care.
While the exclusion is not writ
ten into the appropriation Ian
guage, it had been contemplated
that the three hospitals would not
share in the cut program.
Last week end, hospital officials
charged their institutions were
being undermined-to the benefit
of Gallinger Hospitality the
move. 1t was charged that Gal
linger was attempting "to build
an empire for ITSELF"
Cut Expected to Stand.
Apparently the cut in funds to
$500,000 will stand for the time
being. The problem of how many
hospitals to include in the pro-
gram, a subcommittee sources said
today, is not one for the subcom-
mittee. but for the Commissioners
as an administrative responsibility
There appeared to be little like
lihood that the $500 900 item would
De increased, because the economy
minded House has been cutting
sharply into every appropriation
bill.
Hospital officials also have urged
higher rates of payment to the
hospitals from the city-at least
UP to the $3.50 a day average
patient cost at Gallinger. The VOL
untary hospitals now are paid at
the rate of 50 day for treating
INDECENT bed patients and So for
clinic visits
