VIII find discussion of the report submitted to the Rockville
Mayor and Council this week by the Youth Activities commit
tee
We consider this report one of the most constructive
events OF the and want to commend the nine
and women who obviously spent long hours in its prepara
ton.
In addition to the sincere and constructive spirit that
anmates line of the report find channels of action
indicated for both the long and short runs For these
we commend it to all citizens who want to do than
just talk about the evils of juvenile delinquency.
We particularly liked the suggestion that the city up
committee to coordinate youth activities At the present
tme Saturday night may three organizations spon
sorng dances for young people while nothing at all will
be scheduled for the next three Saturday evenings.
The Mayor and Council quick to appreciate the value
the report have already authorized the Youth Committee
to go ahead with plans for city Christmas observance in
which young people will be invited to play the leading role
1t is sincere hope that this first concrete step will
highly successful and ask that all citizens and
civic groups start NOW to make success Let's not let

Election Mud Bath
Over = Let's Clean Up

Now that the election year is over wonder how the
national group that sought to muster support for clean
campaign feels Some of readers may remember that
the campaign to keep clean launched with much
publcized meeting of COP and Democratic National Com
mttee heads
Nationally the campaign far from clean. 1t full
of nnuendos mud and bogus charges brought up from the
depths at the last minute Both parties guilty. but
would be less than honest if didn't that the national
COP was the chief offender
The County campaign, thank goodness, relatively
free of the national mud although disturbed about
some of the whispers that making the rounds in the
School Board contest If can't do better than this
haps we should allow the Governor to appoint Board
bers. What do our readers think?

Let's Take Another
Look at Up-COunty ZOning

We are glad that most of the Council candidates and
members who attended the gathering last week of the Up
County Land Owners association assured the group that
the Council will give ample time for the consideration of
the proposed up-county zoning ordinance.
Because we too, work against headlines appre
cae the desire of the present County Council to clean up
many matters of pending legislation possible before
the bell rings and group takes
Nevertheless, in matter of this sorta matter which
affects the future of all property in the rural
feel that every effort to reach meeting of all minds
should be made Therefore, hope the present Council
will note vote the pending ordinance into law Nov nd
Gated earlier And if the Council does hope the Coun
Gil will promptly repeal such action and start with another
public hearing that ardenty desired by upcounty land
owners. (

Good News for Farm
And City Residents

Two happy elements in the deserve comment this
week, believe.
First, we'd like to express pleasure at the fact that
Rockville may get top national recognition for citizenparc
patton in civic affairs Opinions may honestly differ the
direction of this participation but least there can NO
question the value of it. It's basic to any healthy demo-
cratic community
Second we'd like say that have met the new County

to is the Committees chairman, Eugene Moran He'll
be glad to get any and all help.
Being in the publishing business and therefore aware
of the long and painful history behind the freedom of the
printed word cannot but regard recommendation
with msgivngs while recognize its laudable intent This
the resolution which calls the city fathers to write
ordinance "to rid the city of all obscene literature"
We firmly believe that the way to do this is by the
censorship the part of the purchaseets just not buy
questionable literature Other steps faught with really
tough problems.
This is minor point, however-the report is excellent.
Let's help put its immediate recommendations into action
soon possible.

MAYOR MANI S SECTION
READY FOR SEWER TIE1N

In a special interview with
the Robbins Eagle, Mayor Hen
bricks stated that it is now time
to inform the citizens of Rob-
bins that they could now begin
preparing themselves to use
the new facilities sewers
and water.
The section that is now ready
for use is bounded by Holman
Ave, on the east; 135th ST., on
the north; 13otn ST., on the
south and the village limits
on the west.
Necessary steps are required
by the village in connecting to
the new sewers and any at
tempt to violate these require
ments will be subject to a fine
and penalties.
The necessary steps are.
IA permit must be OBJ
tanned at the Village Hall
before starting any digging.
This can be had for fee
of $500
2-The line must be in
spected by regular in
spector to be selected when
the Supt. of Waterworks
and Sewer System is ap-
pointed by the president of
the village board. This must
be done before the line is
covered.
3-The lead from the
House to the sewer shall
be not less than 6 inch, it
may be slip-shield or plain,
the joints must be tight and
the fall is not to be less
than ID inch per foot. No
roof drains nor any surface
drainage is to be inserted
into the sewers. 1t is a
strict violation, if this con-
dition is found to exist.
To insure efficient operation,
it is recommended that one who
is familiar with this type of
work be hired to install your
leads, thereby insuring efficient
operation and guarding against
stoppage, rodding and cleaning.

Court Orders
Reinstatement OF
Negro Teachers

Santa Fe, New Mexico
Last year, Mrs. Mary Alice
Swisher, a Negro teacher,
taught in Las Cruces. AS
the town began it's desegre-
cation program, white stu
dents began. to move into
the formerly all Negro Sec
ton. AS a result the school,
w h i C h was formerly all
Negro. enrolled, almost over
night, largely a white stu
dent body and Mrs. Swish
er's contract was not re-
newed.
However, the teacher took
her complaint to New Next
co District Court which
ruled that under the laws
of tenure, a teacher could
only be dropped for incom-
petence. Apparently t h e
School Board felt that it was
undesirable for Mrs. Swisher
to teach in a desegregated
school.

body, absolutely free of any
charge. Under the present
administration the church
has established the policy of
dedicating this dinner to God
and serving it, without cost,
to all who will come and
share it.
At the close of the service
the committee, headed by
Deacon B. H. Jones, present
ed the pastor with a beauti-
fully roasted II pound tur-
key, pies and everything that
would make his Thanksgiv-
ing dinner a delightful one.
Too much praise cannot

Surely q new and bright
chapter was added to tho

result of the service.
