School Bus Rules
Raised as Issue in
Arlington Contest

Independent Movement candi-
dates for the Arlington School
Board have charged that new
school bus regulations reflect
"mismanagement and lack of
vision on the part of the present
School Board"
Dolph Hays and James Miles,
in a joint statement, said the
board knew more students would
have to be transported this year,
but failed to request a higher
school bus budget.
"This transportation fiasco
could have been avoided" they
said, "by inclusion in the School
Board budget of sufficient funds
to take care of increased serv-
ice."
See County Board Approval.
The candidates said the county
had reduced the appropriation
requested by the School Board
for 1953-54, but Mr.. Hays and
Mr.. Miles said "only the fat, not
the muscle" of any school pro-
gram was cut.
"The County Board would
have gladly approved an increase
for such a vital SERVICE" they
declared.
The School Administration
said buses are operated under
Virginia school bus regulations,
under which the State pays
most of the cost of operation
Of the buses and also makes an
nual payments to meet deprecia-
ton. State payments are reim-
bursed to the county this year
after the money is actually
spent. This year Arlington could
not afford to buy any more
school buses and therefore had
to make adjustments to make the
best possible use of the 81 buses
available"
The school officials statement
said the county's school vehicles
transport more children per bus
daily than those of any other
school system in the State.
Many Additional Pupils.
One factor in the heavy de-
mand for bus transportation this
year is that about $50 children
who attended District schools
last year will ride buses to Ar
lington schools this year.
Also, the delay in completion
OF. jamestown and Tuckahoe
schools, the school officials state
ment said, means that pupils
scheduled for those schools must
be transported temporarily to
other schools.
Under the new regulations
only those high school students
who live more than a mile-and-
a-half from school will be al
lowed to ride buses.
Thirteen elementary schools
will open at $3.50 am, instead
of 9 am. Under the plan, all jun
ior and senior high-school stu
dents will be transported to
school before the buses service
these elementary schools.

By-passlng a vault-like door,
thieves last night chiseled a hole
in the wall of a strongroom Of
the Church of the Nativity,

percheron Judging,
Queens Parade Are
Timonium High|ights
By the Associated Press

TIMONIUM, Md. Sept. T.
The judging of Percheron horses
and parading of the 1853 Farm
Queen high lighted today's spe-
cial Labor Day program at the
72d annual Maryland State Fair.
The queens procession, which
didn't get under way last night
because of a steady downpour,
was rescheduled for tonight.
Pretty Susanne Mennett IF
Adelina, Calvert County, decided
not to sit at the coronation cere-
mony because her throne-and
everything else at the fair-was
wet from steady rains.
The ceremony was witnessed
by about 5000 visitors who
crowded the grandstand for a
look at the highlight of the
fifth-day program at the I'D an
nual State fair.
Delayed almost two hours
while officials waited in vain for
the downpour to stop, the coro-
nation finally went off without
some of the usual trimmings.
One casualty was the tradi-
tionally big and colorful coro-
nation procession, which this
year had drawn floats from 35
All clubs. Judging Of prize
floats took place instead in the
covered cattle ring.
Instead of riding to the front
of the grandstand on her royal
barge, the 1853 farm queen and
her court were driven to the
coronation in closed automobiles
She was crowned by William
F. Schluderberg, !Timonium fair
grounds chief.
Queen Susanne wore a white
StraplesS~gown of net, white bal
let slippers, and carried bou-
quet of white chrysanthemumS
She was escorted by Royd Smith

New Traffic Tickets
Will StreamIine
Cases in Arlington

Arlington police will have a
Streamlined procedure for han
ding traffic violators soon
probably next month.
The new system is based on
the use of uniform traffic tickets
which, backed by the National
Safety Council, are being widely
adopted throughout the Nation
The Arlington County Board
Saturday authorized appropria-
tion of $1.678 to buy a special
reproduction machine with
which the police department will
be able to put the program into
effect.
Speeds Up Process.
Capt. Walter E. Bell, head OF
the police administrative bureau
explained how the new machine
will smooth out the processing
of traffic ticket from the mo-
ment a court appearance is
ordered until a record of the
courts disposition of the case
is filed.
The uniform traffic ticket, he
said, will eliminate the necessity
of making out warrant for
the erring motorist. Instead, a
notarized copy of the new ticket
will be used as warrant. After
a traffic judge has fixed pen
atty, the police department will
no longer have to fill out a court
disposition record.
Decision Recorded.
On the new tickets, Capt. Bell
said, is space for recording the
courts decision. The new ma
chine, a trans-copy device, will
reproduce the appropriate data
in a form designed to fit present
police files.
Still in the planning stage,
Capt. Bell revealed, is another
scheme to set up a special bureau
to process collateral payments
by ticketed motorists.

Police Will Call
Parents 10 Pick
Up Juveniles
Order Expected
To Tighten Control
In Arrest Cases

Parents of juveniles held by
the Juvenile Squad will be re-
quired to come to a station house
or police headquarters to get
their young rather than having
police bring them home, under
orders issued today by Deputy
Chief E. E. Scott.
The chief of detectives said
he hoped that this system
might cause parents to deal
more firmly with the boys"
During The Stars survey Of
juvenile crimes by precincts, q
number of police officers said
that boys who were taken home
by police were often seen on
the streets again the same night.
129 Picked Up in Period.
Deputy Chief Scott said q
check of an 18-day period end
ing last Saturday showed that
129 boys were picked up by po-
lice after midnight and turned
over to the Juvenile Squad. This
number ran as high as 20 in one
night.
He estimated that in 80 per
cent of the cases the parents
did not know where the boys
WERE
Deputy Chief Scott said the
check indicated that several
hundred boys were on the streets
after midnight during that
period since police would be
picking up only those actually
caught in a misdeed or acting
suspiciously.
This does not include boys ar
rested before midnight-like the
two caught after last nights
holdup-robbery of Highs ice
cream store in the $500 block Of
Pennsylvania avenue NV.
Wild Range of Offienses.
Arrests of the 129 boys were
for offenses ranging from as
Sault with a dangerous weapon
to housebreaking and robbery, as
well as for investigation, mar
cotics and robbery cases.
Under present procedure the
Juvenile Squad takes the re-
SponSibility for all boys picked
up by police against whom an
offense may be lodged. The
Juvenile Squad usually takes the
boy home and gets a paper from
the parents saying that they
will produce the boy in Juvenile
Court.
Other Procedure.
If the parents cannot be To-
Gated. or the offense is so serious
that the boy cannot stay at large,
he goes to the receiving home.
The Juvenile Squad, as soon as
court opens, files a complaint and
Juvenile Court takes up from
there.
The only change in this pro-
cedure directed by Deputy Chief
Scott is to bring the parents
more actively into the case to
start with. If the parents have
to come get the boy, he said, at
least police will know that the
parents are informed of all the
facts promptly.
