Engineers have set the conStruc-
ton details for new bridge across
the North Branch of the Potomac
river at Kitzmiller, replacing an
old-type span, it was announced
this week by State Roads officials.
G. Bates Chaires, district cngi-
neer, said State Roads Commission
officials were there last week
checking the site. With them at the
time was State Senator Neil c.
Fraley, of Oakland.
The new bridge will be wider
and will be placed at location
other than the present one, Chaires
stated. The new location will
eliminate the dangerous approaches
to the bridge.
The contract on the new bridge
there will be let this winte:,
Charles indicated. Estimates on
the project show the span will cost
approximately 100000.
Temporary repairs were made
to the bridge several weeks ago
when truck broke through a
section Of the flooring.

Parents To Return
To School" at P.-T.A'
Will Go Through Regular
Schedule, But on An
Abbreviated Basis

"Mom and Pop" will be put
through Southern High school in
one night, at the next meeting OF
the Parent-Teacher association on
Monday, November l6. They will
take up the routine their child
goes through every day, but on an
abbreviated basis. The classes will
last only ten minutes and there
will be six periods. Parents also
will go to the cafeteria as their
child does.
In classes the parents will have
an opportunity to meet the teach
ers on an informal basis, to learn
more about the school program.
Students are to give their par
ents a copy of their daily class
schedules, and they will report to
the home room at p. M, the regu-
lar hour for P.-T.A. From there
they will go, to all classes attended
by their children. Letters have
been sent out to parents giving a
blank outline of class periods.
Howard Naylor, P.-T.A. president,
said it was important for parents
to have the child's schedule so that
he would know where to go each
period.
Naylor pointed out the oppor-
tunities for inspection of classroom
equipment, a personal talk with
the instructors, and discussion of
questions in small informal groups.
The primary purpose of this
Parents Night at School, as stated
in the letter sent out this week, Is
for the parents to gain better
understanding of the educational
program in which your son OF
daughter participates during the
school year"
Student ushcrs and reception
lists will be on duty in corridors anc
classrooms to assist parents il
finding the various places.
There will be opportunity also
to visit the library, the guidance
office, the cafeteria, the principals
office, etc, during the second hall
of a core period or during study
period. Refreshments are to be
served in the cafeteria between
$3.50 and 10 O'Clock.

Advises Against
25-Mile Speed Zone
Recommends That Speed Linn
its on Oakland Outskirts
BE Set at Thirty
Miles Per Hour

There will be no twenty-five mile
speed zone limits on the outskirts
of Oakland on US. Highway 2l9,
the Mayor and Town Council of
Oakland were advised by the State
Roads Commission this week.
A letter from the assistant chief
engineer cited the legislative act
creating speed zones as the basis
Of his recommendation that speed
zones in these areas remain "as is"
The Mayor and Council, at last
months meeting took action to
move the 25-mile speed limits a
little farther north and south on
US. route 2l9, at the north and
southeastern edges of town. The
council planned to extend the
speed zone Is of a mile north of
the present limit, and 80 of a mile
beyond the present limit on the
southeastern end.
At present there is a 30-mile
speed zone from the southeastern
edge of town to Mt. Lake Park.
At the north edge of town the zone
was to have been extended to in
clude the town limits which were
enlarged this spring,
The State Roads Commission
engineer, after coming here to
make survey, said in his opinion
there was mot sufficient develop
ment to warrant a 25-mile speed
zone" He said in letter to the
council that the Legislative act
creating speed zones states that
25-mile zone will exist in congested
or thickly populated areas; 80
miles in outlying sections, and will
not exceed so miles in open coun-
try"
The man added that the two
zones described by the city council
cannot be classified under terms
of the legislative act and it is my
judgment that the speed zones
should remain as is"
The council indicated, however,
that the 25-mile speed zones other
than on the State Roads, would re-
main in effect.
Other Routine Business
Other business conducted Monday
night at the regular November ses-
sion was mostly routine. Carroll E.

Lions Club Plans
New Fund Raising;
Will Sell Brooms

The Oakland-Mt Lake Park
Lions club has arranged to sell
brooms, to raise funds for their
Community Betterment program.
These are no ordinary brooms, ac-
cording to II. c. Leighton, chair
man of this committee. The brooms
are made by the Maryland Work
shop for the Blind, in Baltimore.
The club formerly sold Christ
mas trees during this season to
raise money, but will not carry on
that project this year This will be
taken up by the National Guard.
Following the next meeting of
the Lions club on November %,
the members will make a canvass
of the entire area, in an effort to
sell a large number of these
brooms. Net proceeds will be used
to support scout troops, band, and
other community projects.
At the last meeting of the club
on Monday night w. w. Dewitt,
county roads engineer, gave a talk
on the county roads system and the
improvements made during the past
few years.
