ToSe|| Second
Block Of Bonds
Board OKs Another
81 Million Sole
OF SIT Million Issue

The Fairfax County School
Board last night voted to sell a
second 81 million block of the
county's $11 million school bond
issue.
The board set the sale in mo-
ton by a unanimous vote, after
agreeing that the current bond
market appeared to be a favor
able one.
The bond issue. voted in Feb
ruary. 1858. is designed to meet
school needs until September,
1855. The board sold the first
81 million block last october.
Bid Date to Be Set.
A date will be set for bids to
be received after a formal reso-
luton is drawn up by School
Board Attorney John Alexander
and the necessary machinery is
set up by out-of-town bonding
attorneys and financial firms.
In other action, the board app
proved recommendations by
School Superintendent w. r.
Woodson dealing with attend
ance Jurisdictions on the OPEN
ing of the Annandale High
School. The school. which is still
under construction, is expected
to be completed for the 1885
session.
Students who are now in the
18th grade and will begin their
senior year at that time will con-
tinue to attend their present
school-either Mount Vernon or
Fairfax as Annandale will
handle Grades through II only.
Other Assignments.
New senior students who move
into the area also will go to one
of the two present schools. All

County Executive C. c. Massey
of an estimated $244,112 in reve-
nue. from State and Federal
funds in excess of the estimated
revenue submitted for the pro-
poesd 1954-55 budget.
The net increase on State
funds was given as $184,850 and
on Federal funds. $59,262. The
present proposed budget calls
for a 15-cent tax rate increase,
but the extra money may make
it possible to hold next years in
crease to five cents.
SIS Million Budget.
The submitted school budget
is SIS million. The Fairfax
Board of County supervisors will
hold public hearing on the pro-
posed $11,170.95S budget on

Arlington to Sell
Lost Block of 81
Tied-Up Bonds

IIeO-OP DOnQS
The Arlington County School
Board at last is free to use $2.5
million in bond money authorized
by voters in 1851.
The board voted last night to
sell the remaining bonds from
the $40 million issue, which has
been tied up until now by
litigation.
The way was cleared for the
sale last week. when the Vir-
ginia State Supreme Court re-
fused again to review a case
aimed at ousting three board
members because they are Fed
eral employees. The suit was
brought by Miles S. Bray, who
was represented by Attorney
John Locke Green.
The board still has unsold
100000 in bonds from later
So million issue.
Several Projects Involved.
Scheduled for construction
with the funds are the first unit
Of a new Junior High School,
Kenmore; additions to Swanson,
Patrick Henry and Thomas JEFF
ferson Schools, and remodeling
at jamestown. Maury, Wilson
and Woodlawn. After the new
junior high school is built on
the site of the Glencarlyn School,
a new Glencarlyn will be built.
The board last night also list
ened for 212 hours to a delega-
ton Of parents Directing to de-
tails of the proposed kinder
garten system to be set up next
year. The new system would do
away with admission to the first
grade of 5l2-year-olds who pass
tests. But it would admit all
5-year-olds to kindergarten.
Cut OFF Protested.
The parents object to the Octo-
Der l cut off date stipulated by
State law. They would like to
see the present program con-
tinued for one year in addition
to the kindergarten system, so
children who attended private
kindergartens this year would
not have to repeat kindergarten
next year. Most of them sug-
gested that qualifying tests again
be given to pupils who will be 6
by January /.
Board members asked the staff
to consider what special arrange
ments could be made but en-
phasized that legally the kinder
garten system will have to re-
place the present pre-primary
system of early admissions.
1000 New Pupils.
This year. the schools accepted
$50 under-age students out of
600 applicants. The proposed
kindergartens would take in an
estimated 1000 pupils next fall
! The board deferred action on
a testing program for the new
polio vaccine in county schools
until it gets more information
on when the vaccine will be ready
and the latest date the doctors
can begin the program. The pro-
gram must run 40 days from the
date of the first injections.
The board announced it will
be host. on April 6. to a regional

On the Air
Studio One Gave Its Best
To cardinal Mindszenty,
On the Air


The television comedians have
given point Of order" quite q
ride, but it remained for Studio
One" to make the most timely
comment on some Of our present
affairs on Monday night. It
probably did it in all innocence,
too.
The CBS-TV dramatic pro-
gram. which has had its Ups
and downs during its years on
the air, had one of the former
this week. The Felix jackson
production Of Cardinal Mind
szenty," adapted from DR.. Bella
Fabian's biography, turned out
to be one of those exciting
unions Of the best Of several
theatrical talents.
It was one Of those dramatic
and distinguished efforts which
make Studio One" remain a
favorite with many Tv playgoers,
no matter how many times it
trips over its own high pur-
pose. It was q forceful drama
which William Templeton
adapted. Paul Nickel directed,
Kim Swados designed and a cast
headed by Claude Dauphin
played.
Mr.. Templeton, Mr.. Swados
and Mr.. Nickel are the adapter,
scenic artist and director who
worked together earlier on the
highly effective Studio One"
production of George Orwell's
novel, 1894" Their collabora-
tion this time was equally ef-
fective. Possibly the opportunity
to say something emphatic
about the evil of totalitarianism
brings out the best in them.
Mr.. Templeton's lucid and
clean-cut scenario was a moving
drama unfolding on two levels
at the same time. 1t was, first,
the personal story of the tri-
umph of a mans faith, as it told
how Cardinal Mindszenty was
imprisoned by the Nazis, freed by
the Russians, then imprisoned
again and subjected to Commu-
mist torture.
At the same time it was the
story of mans fight for freedom
from totalitarianism, whether it
calls itself Naziism or Commu-
nism. Thanks to Director Nick
ell, Mr.. Dauphin and the others
IN the cast, Mr.. Templeton's
points were explicitly stated.
Mr.. Swados designed some
thing of the same sort of phys
ical production for Cardinal
Mindszenty' that he did for the
Orwell drama. This is scenic
design on an imaginative level
between realism and abstrac-
ton, and Mr.. SwadoS is just the
man to take advantage of them,
too. He made excellent use of
both cameras and lighting in the
Swados suggestions of sets to
relate a smoothly flowing narra-
tive of considerable impact.
A share of credit must go. too,
to Mr.. Dauphin. The French
actor. in the title role. brought a
sensitive understanding to it that
is closer to the exception that
the rule in television acting. He
delineated most effectively the
