whether any one connected with
the board had collected cam
pa'gn contributions from license

cants before the board.

BY the A.soeiossd Press

BALTIMORE, Oct. 18.-Six
Republican candidates for the
State Legislature expressed dis
satisfaction today with only q
summary Of a report on &C
crediting Of the University Of
Maryland.
The candidates from Balti-
more's 5th district urged the
regents in a telegram to give the
full report to. Gov. McKeldin.
They also asked the regents queS-
tions about the emphasis on ath-
letics and scholarship.
The regents for the second
time last week voted not to make
public the accrediting survey by
the Middle States Association Of
Colleges. Instead it issued a
summary confirming that the
university had two years to make
certain changes and improve
ments In order to stay on the
dCCteulCeO llSC.
Political Purposes Feared.
The Republican candidates ex-
pressed fear that the summary
would be used by DR.. H. c. Byrd
"for political purposes. The re-
port has become subject Of the
campaign for Governor between,
DR.. Byrd. the former university
president. and Gov. McKeldin.
The candidates, in addition to
asking for release Of the full re-
port of 160 pages to Gov. Nickel
din, also asked the regents for
a breakdown on athletic ex-
penditures and stadium costs for
the past 20 years. They inquired
for the number of athletic
scholarships, money requested
for library facilities, and why
there is no Phi Beta Kappa
chapter, scholastic honor society,
at the university.
Concern Over Library.
The regents said among the
things about which the Middle
States association was concerned
at the university was q suitable
library and intercollegiate ath-
leticS.

versity president, planned to hold

200 al Hearing
On Rules for
Beauty Shops
. Commissioners Study
Proposal; New
Objections Raised

The Commissioners today took
up for study q draft of regula-
tons governing beauty shops
and The practice Of cosrnetology.
after q public hearing at the
District Building.
The hearing, attended by some
200 persons, brought out specific
objections to the several pro-
posed rules, although the latest
draft resulted from q number
of meetings &etween District Of
ficials and beauty shop repre-
,sentatives.
/. 1t was contended that some
of the regulations in the 38-page
draft were unnecessarily restric-
tive and expensive for compli-
ance. Another objection con-
cerned the imposing of a dual
responsibility in cases where
beauty shops rent out booths
for some osmeotology practice.
Old Subject.
The proposed rules have been
in the mill since early in 1862
and were under consideration as
far back as 1949.
Today's hearing was the sec
ond to be held by the Commits
sioners, the earlier one having
taken place In July, 1853.
At that time, attorneys repre-
senting cosmetologists here said
the proposals as then drawn were
not acceptable to the beauty shop
operators. The city heads were
informed that the draft con-
Sidered today resulted from a
number Of meetings between Dis
trict officials and beauty shop
representatives.
Supervision Desired.
Robert F. Kneipp, assistant
corporation counsel and chair
man of the Commissioners regu-
lations committee. told the Com
last year that the
regulations were being drafted
with particular reference to SUI
pervision Of each shops opera
tions by a qualified person, and
the observation of safety and
sanitation measures.
A statement by health director
Daniel L. Seckinger, presented by
DR.. John r. Pate, urged that the
regulations ibe adopted in the
interest Of public health.
Recent surveys conducted by
the health department, he said,
have yielded archaeological
data tracing high incidences of
to improper disin-
fected clippers and combs
