Light. Nearby May Ease
Seven Corners Jam

Traffic tie-ups at busy Seven
Corners on Lee boulevard at Falls
Church may be eased by installa-
ton of new traffic light at the
Willston Apartments, the State
Highway Department believes.
The Office of Fairfax resident
Engineer o. T. Aichel said the
light will be installed at the inter-
section of the boulevard and Pat
rick Henry drive.
Although the signal will be sew
eral hundred yards from Seven
Corners, highway officials expect
that commuters using Leesburg
Pike going west toward Seven Cor
ners will be encouraged to cut
off the pike. go through the apart
ment area and get onto the boule-
ward at Patrick Henry drive.
Traffic using Wilson boulevard
also could use the drive as an ac-
cess to the boulevard, instead of
going to Seven Corners.
Highway officials concede that
the seven-Way intersection is one
of the worst traffic bottlenecks in
the State. A major traffic sepa-
ration, probaly including an over
pass. is considered the only per-
manent solution.
Converging at Seven Corners
are Leesburg Pike, Wilson boule-
ward, Hillwood avenue, Sleepy
Hollow road, Broad street and Lee
boulevard, which enters and leaves
the circle.

James r. Miles. ST., of 1901

engineer and president of the
newly formed Arlington Forum
on Public Schools, has brought a
suit, charging that the course
places too heavy work-load
on students. The organization he
heads has asked the school board
to eliminate the course.
Mr.. Miles is member Of

education.
Forum to Follow.
A forum will follow the discus
sion, Mr.. Hass told the board at
its regular meeting at Stratford
last night.
In statement issued to news
papers early last week, Mr.. Miles
challenged a statement he at
tributed to Mr.. Early that the
State Board of Education had ap-
proved the course.
/ The boards motion. suggested
by DR.. Barnard Joy and approved
unanimously. said that "the at
tack Of Mr.. Miles upon the SUPER
intendent is unfair and unjusti-
fled and the record should show
that his release to the press was
incorrect"
Mr.. Early asked Mr.. Miles, who
attended last nights meeting, for
an apology.
Apology Refused.
TO ask me to apologize is 60
ing too far" Mr.. Miles replied. He
insisted that he had reported the
superintendent's statement fairly
and said. Il refuse to apologize
if the implication is that I am
deliberately attributing untrue
statements to him"
/ Mr.. Early said he named two
Representatives of the State De-
partment of Education who have
advised him that the course is
in harmony with the State edu-
cation program.
The superintendent said his
earlier statement was that the
State Board had indicated ap-
proval of the course. He explained,
I however. that he had used the
term State Board" in referring
to the action of State administra-
tors just as Arlington residents
refer to the entire school admins
tration as the School Board"
In other business, the board
