Public Has Four
More Chances at
School Candidates

Four Montgomery County
'area meetings" remain at which
the county Board of Education
candidates will face direct ques-
tioning from county voters.
Initiated by the Montgomery
County Council PTAs, the idea of
area meetings was developed dur
ing the latter part of August.
Representatives of the PTA Coun-
Gil, together with representatives
of the County League of Women
Voters, A.A.U.W., Committee for
School Issues and the now dis
banded Federation for Qualified
School Board Nominees set dates
and places for the meetings.
This was done to conserve en-
ergies of candidates who other
wise face the prospect of literal
ly hundreds of smaller meetings.
1t was also decided that local
civic and school groups be invit-
ed to take over sponsorship of
meetings scheduled in their own
areas.
Meetings remaining on the
schedule include:
Oct. 21-Richard MOntgOm-
cry High School, sponsored by
Rockville area PTAs and civic
groups.
Oct. p - Bethesda Chevy
Chase High School, sponsored
by the schools PTA.

above mentioned people.
In this way film fashions
could find their way to the
consumer in such a manner
as would prove satisfying to
all.
This talk we had took place
in 1851 on the coast. Now some
three years later comes film
called "Sabrina" for which
Miss Head designed Audrey
Hepburn's wardrobe. For the
pert, young, sophisticated ac-
tress she has done fashions
that are in that vein. In New
York the firm of Natylnn
Juniors has faithfully adapted
five of the dresses for the
women who want to wear the

Women frequently have
commented that they wished
they could find similar clothes

get a bit more realistic and
more in keeping with fashion

One thing Edith Head
pointed out in our talk was
that with this in mind, the
greatest help film designers
could have given to them
would be to have a good manu-
facturer's tie-in, competent
merchandising in the stores,
intelligent promotion, and a

that movies had come a long

confidence that the discharge

The 7 per cent postal pay

its approval by the House Civil
weeks ago. Approval by the
rules group is needed before the
House can act. The Only alter
native is to force the bill out of

discharge petition, was one of
the leaders in the House Civil
Service Committee in getting the
Z per cent measure approved.
House Civil Service Commit
tee will approve a 81 per cent
average Redistribution pay bill
for classified workers.
This plan would contain the
administration original 3.5 per

crease proposal, plus another
500 added to the first 10 grades,
for an overall average of 81 per
cent. 1t would give classified
workers raises ranging from $100
to $500 a year.

pered in its effort to report bill
during the last few days, due to
