DC. Heads TO Restudy
Plans for Lily Ponds
Project After Hearinq

The Commissioners have decided
to study again the question of
whether low-rent public housing
project should be constructed at
the Lily Ponds site in Northeast
Washington.
Colored residents of the area,
which is off Kenilworth avenue
near the District Line, protested
vigorously against the project at
hearing held by the city heads
yesterday. The Commissioners
decided to take the matter under
adviSement.
Commissioner F. Joseph Dono-
hue indicated the citizens had
changed his mind about the ad-
visibility of putting the housing
development at Lily Ponds.
He commented that the city
heads should pay attention to the
people who are improving them
selves. He said such an attitude
should be encouraged
Lily Ponds has been the site OF
temporary war housing for num-
Der of years. The National Capital
Housing Authority now wants to
clear out this temporary housing,
largely vacant, and build perma-
nent low-cost housing.
Approval Of the site must be
obtained from the Commissioners.
Two weeks ago. the city heads
gave their approval But protests
came from the Federation of
Civic Associations and other civic
groups because no public hearing
had been held.
The Commissioners admitted it
was an oversight. They revoked
their earlier approval and called
the hearing.
Leaders of the Eastland Gar
dens Civic Association, the Fort

with private home owners to OBJ

Taking a physical examination
as a draftee Is like dancing in a
conga line-slow motion. It's done
in single file and has a peculiar
sort of rhythm. X-ray to blood
test to eye chart.
The big difference is that at
the end of the exam doctor asks
you how you feel and whether
you've got any complaints.
With 1877 draftees. I recently
was examined at the Alexandria
induction center.
At roll call we were handed
three essentials of the examina-
tion-two medical forms and a
numbered tag with a string on it.
We hung the tag around our
neck. On one Of the forms we
wrote our medical history. The
other was filled out by doctors and
medical corpsmen as we moved
step-by-step through the exam
part of the time with nothing on
but the numbered tag.
Queried on Health.
Among the things we had to say
on the medical history form were
what diseases we'd had, whether
we thought our health was good or
bad. We had to tell the cause
of any deaths in our family.
Also, the form was used by the
center's doctors to ferret out men
tai disorders. How man fills out
the form is often good tip-oft
as to his mental condition. Some
times men upset mentally will
complain bitterly about their
health when nothing much is
wrong.
The center's doctors are prac-
ticed in spotting such men and al
most always send them to see
psychiatrist. He can turn thumbs
down on them because they'd be
bad risk for the Army.
There's always the chance, too
that men will try to fake mental
disorders.
Admits False Story.
One officer told me about a fell
low who claimed that almost every
body in his family had committed
suicide. A phone call easily demol-
ished his story. and he later ad-
mitted he was taking.
Another fellow claimed on the
medical form that he had had Sc
or so diseases. The doctors car
easily check taking like this by
asking questions.
After we finished the final form
we stripped to the waist and linec
up outside a closed door with 9
green light. The light flashed or
and off when it was our turn to gt
