think about it.
At the conclusion of the discussion
Miss Dermody told the Board that
their suggestions would be brought
before the members of her committee
at their next meeting. The ultimate
aim of the Education Committee, by
the way, is to prepare a report ON
the future educational needs of the
county, not only with regard to the
type of education in the public
schools, but also with regard to the
need of more school buildings that
will have to be built within the next
few years to take care of the ever
increasing school population in the
county.
Final action by the Board, before
adjourning until the next meeting,
two weeks hence, was the approval
of a recommendation made by its
Agricultural Committee, of which
Herbert w. McElwee is chairman,
relative to suggested improvements
at the City Market House. The Com
mittee recommended that the sug-
gested improvements be discussed
with the stall renters, after which a
further report will be made to the
Board.
That, ladies and gentlemen, is how
your Board of Directors of your
Chamber of Commerce occupies its
time at those Board meetings that
are held every other week.
If you are not already a member
of the Chamber of Commerce, how
about signing up now for 1854?
The Salute to Hagerstown," tele-
vised over WMAR-TV (Channel p
on Sunday, was fine advertisement
for "The Hub City" The unrehears-
ed program, in which Mayor Wins
low F. Burhans, Herman Stockslag-
err, president of the Chamber of
Commerce; Harold M. Porter, presi-
dent of the Manufacturers Bureau;
j. j. Murphy, president of the Re-
tailers' Bureau; and James Stone,
manager of the Chamber, took part,
went off without a hitch - except
for an amusing incident = and here
it is:
The monitor of the program stood
behind the camera and by hand mo-
tions signaled to the speakers where
to stand and where to move etc.
While Mr. Murphy was in front of
the camera, the monitor suddenly
kept running his finger across his
nose. "Murph" thinking he was be-
ing signaled to remove a smut from
his nose, quickly ran his finger across
his nostril - it was not until the
program was over that he found out
that the monitor wanted him to push
his glasses higher up on his nose!

The ceremony will take place at
2:30 o'clock at the rear of the City

The program will open with con-
cert by the Municipal Band from

Tracks have already been run to
the locomotive and Number 202 is

has been placed on the locomotive
by the railway company, giving all
the data concerning it.
Representatives of all the local
clubs and organizations have been
invited by the Mayor to be present

The gift by the Western Maryland

all children love-to inspect, at their
leisure, an honest-to- goodness rail
road locomotive.

The second year has been complet-
ed, with showings in eight states,
under the sponsorship of ten univer-
sites. A total of 100000 people were
given comprehensive guided tours of.
the exhibit during this period.
The exhibit contains more than 30
sections, devoted to various phases
of atomic energy. It includes an
atomic furnace in which uranium
atoms are split every few seconds
and also explains and actually pro-
duces radiosotopes. Probably the
most appealing of all the exhibits is
the one in which dime is made
radio active and placed in a plastic
and aluminium eontainer as a souve-
nier for any visitor who cares to
furnish dime.
One of the most spectacular ex-
hibits is the Van de GRAF electro
static generator, invented by DR..
Robert J. Van de GRAF, associate
professor of physics at Massachusetts,
Institute of Technology. There will
also be other exhibits of a local ma
ture which, added to the regular
show, will make this an exhibit wen
worth visiting Trained demonstra-
tors from the Hagerstown Junior
College and Fairchi1d Aircraft En-
gmeers, win be on hand to explain
each phase of the exhibit.

The Rev. and Mrs. Charles w.

returned home after visiting Rever-
end Brewbaker's sister, Mrs. Tillie
E. Spessard, Summit Avenue
During their visit here they were
entertained by Mr.. and Mrs. John w.
Rohrer Guilford Avenue, in honor of
Mr.. Brewbaker's birthday. The party
brought back happy memories to all
concerned, because, back on Deem
Der 20, 1897, when Reverend Brew
baker was pastor of Shiloh United
Brethren Church here, he oficiated
at the wedding of Mr.. and Mrs. Rohr-
er, at the home of the bride, the
former Miss Annie E. Leckron.

AROUND TOW 81
WITH THE EDR ed

Herman B. Hopes, retiring Chair
man of the Hagerstown Housing
Authority, deserves the thanks of the
entire community for the splendid
Job he has done in bringing to
reality, Hagerstown's two, low-cost
housing developments.
With his fellow members, all of
whom donated their services, he
worked tirelessly and continually on
the tremendous undertaking and he
retires not only with the knowledge
that he has helped to make Hagers-
town better place in which to live
and make a living, but also with the
knowledge that he and his fellow
members have made it possible for
many, many families in the low in
come brackets to enjoy the comforts
of homes they would otherwise be
unable to afford.
Mayor Burhans announced on
Monday that John M. Lacy has been
appointed to fill the vacancy on the
Housing Authority, and that Mrs.
Jack H. Beachley has been appointed
to the City Zoning Appeals Board,
to fill the vacancy caused by the re-
tirement of Mrs. Lynn Keller.
Walking down West Washington
Street on Monday with a friend, l
mentioned that 1 was on my way to
a meeting of the Board of Directors
of the Chamber of Commerce, which
l attend as a reporter, and he came
back with this question: Just what do
they do at those meetings?
Well all / can say is, that had he
accepted my invitation to go along
with me and find out for himself, he
would have had an adequate answer.
For here's what took place at the
meeting, that lasted for nearly two
hours
Following the approval of the Min
utes, the manager of the Chamber
read letter from Governor Nickel
din relative to telegram sent him
earlier by the Chamber.
Having been advised that the Gov
ernor had set up a Commission to
study State Debt and Finances, the
Board of Directors of the Chamber
sent him telegram, suggesting that
the Commission be expanded to also
explore the relationship between
Federal and State taxes.
The Governors letter not only ex-
pressed his approval of the sug-
gestion but also stated that he had
written the chairman of the Com
mission, instructing him to include
the Chambers suggestion in the
Commissions study.
Miss Madaline Dermody, chairman
of the Chambers Education Com
mittee, then gave the Board a report
on the activities of her committee.
This comprehensive report, which
covered the gamut of education prob
lens as far as Washington County is
concerned, not only showed the ire
mendous amount of work done by
the committee, but also brought on
a formidable discussion that lasted
for nearly an hour.
During the discussion, that touched
on every phase of education from
the three RS to Political Science,
practically every member of the
Board took part and they included a
doctor, farmer, a retailer, a man
ufacturer and railroad executive
all of them parents of school age
children.
The worthwhile discussion brought
out one point above everything else
and that was this: these busy men

BY the Associoted Pres,

Twenty-Five House members
have joined in an attempt to
force a vote on a bill to reduce
income tax rates 10 per cent on
July six months ahead of the
date now scheduled.
| If they can get 1873 colleagues

They are members who, up to
today, had signed a petition to
bypass the House Rules Commit
tee and bring the tax-cut bill
to the House floor despite oppo-
sition of the G. o. P. House
leadership. The rules group has
bottled up the bill since mid
February, when the Ways and
Means Committee approved it.

before the House except under

to changes. Its hackers don't
want to run that risk and have

Man Held in Assault;
One Of Six Charqes

A 28-year-old man yesterday
was held for the grand jury
by Municipal Court Judge
Thomas c. Scalley on a charge
of assault with intent to rape
one of six charges involving
sex, gambling and traffic viola
tions he accumulated in two
hours Sunday night.
In addition, according to
United States Attorney Joseph
Salisbury. police have another
sex complaint from a woman
which is alleged to have taken
place the same evening. This
one probably will be presented
directly to grand jury, Mr..
Salisbury said.
Hoyt D. johnson, colored, of
the 600 block of Three and a
Half street NE, had a prelim-
mary hearing yesterday on the
assault charge. A 19-year-old
colored girl testified johnson
tried to rape her in his car
parked on Catholic University
grounds about 6 pm. Sunday.
Two hours later, according to
police. johnson was picked up
for these traffic violations in
the 600 block of E street Sc:
Parking abreast, only one head
light burning. failing to ex-
hibit a permit and failing to
exhibit a registration.
Police found some numbers
slips in his car and charged
him with their possession.
MIR. Salisbury said the Sec
ond sex complaint arose be-
tween Johnson's leaving Catho-
lie University and his arrest on
the traffic charges.
