Auburn's Star End Unable
To Take Part in Workout

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. Dec.
% P.-Auburn's football team
arrived yesterday for its Gator
Bowl game with Baylor Friday.
and the question on every ones
lips was:
How is Jim Pyburn?"
Coach Ralph (Shug) Jordan
could only echo the question
about his All-Southeastern Con-
ference end who is such a vital
factor in the Tigers offense.
"It's one of those injuries
that could mend quickly" Jor-
dan said, "but so far it hasn't
responded to treatment as fast
as we hoped and expected"
The Auburn squad went di-
rectly from its arrival at Imeson
airport to the practice field in
the Jacksonville baseball park.
There 80 squadmen got in a
rugged workout until dark.
But the one player over on the
sideline limbering up his right
leg got as much attention as the
other 80. For he was Pyburn.
He stayed for about an hour
and then put his leg under in
spection of the trainer, Kenny
Howard, who said it was improv-
ing but not ready yet to chance
contact work.
The injury came about two
weeks ago when Pyburn ran for
a pass in practice and twisted
his leg.
Meanwhile Baylor. with its 38
players in top physical condition,
went through a general 90
minute workout at Jacksonville
Beach.

Needed i'm
Old Area
OF Town
HOvsepian Says
Two Business Areas
Not Needed Here

Dickran Hovsepian, Good Gov
eminent candidate for mayor of
Rockville, this week called for
closer cooperation between the
town and county governments
and said announcement of a new
shopping center on Hungerford
Drive shows the definite need
here of town planning and zon-
ing commission.
While the SIS million shop
ping center is good for Rockville,
Hovsepian said, its impact on
the towns investment in capital
expenditures as well as its pos
sible effect on the older business
section should be investigated
and planned for by a planning
group such as he intends to set
up if elected to office.
Hovsepian said he is convinced
the whole triangle in the town
between Hungerford Drive and
its junction with old u. S. 240
back to Middle Lane will probab-
ly develop into commercial
area of considerable importance
to the town.
Before that is done, however,
Mr. Hovsepian said, it seems to
me we should have a plan for
streets which will tie the tri-
angle into the older business
area in order that that section
does not deteriorate or lose it's
importance in the Rockville COM
munity.
Rockville should not have two
independent business districts,
Mr.. Hovsepian said, and new
areas should not be allowed to
Montgomery County sentinel. [volume] (Rockville, Md.) 1855-1974, 1954-04-08

develop at the expense of the old.
A planning commission for
the town also should give serious
study to the problems of storm
drainage for the shopping area to
be developed in the business tri-
angle, Mr.. Hovsepian stated.
Hovsepian said if the town had
master plan and developers of
business or other areas knew
that such plan existed they
would be more inclined to con.
suit with town officials before
embarking on projects which in
volve development of new areas
and the outlay of capital funds
by the town government. The
towns ability to provide sewer
and water also should receive
considerable study by developers,
Hovsepian added.

will not speak before any meet
ing of the Twinbrook Citizens
Association which has been ar.
ranged or set up by Henry Red
ky, president of the organiZa-
ton.
Milor said that the official of
the TWinbrook Citizens group,
because of his announced per-
sonal support of the Good Gov
eminent slate and his apparent
personal antipathy toward me,
has given me the run-around in
every attempt l have made to
secure a speaking date before

AS result of this, Milor stat

residents of that area to attend"
Milor said, "Mr Redkey in
vited me to a meeting of his
executive committee on March l
but l was unable to attend. At
that time, he set up speaking
dates for the other two States"
Then under date of March 21,

Hovsepian
Slate Called
Me Too i'm
Hit Says Danger
Exists From Ivory
Tower Planners

Edward H. Hit, mayoralty
candidate in Rockville, today
called the slate of candidates
headed by Dickran Hovsepian a
me too group that has managed
to piece together a platform
made up, chiefly, of id e S
and plans first advanced in the
platform of other candidates
running in this election"
Hit, who recently aimed cou-
pie of worded brickbats at the
Hovsepian slate when he took its
members and the Good Govern
ment group to task for using
contributed money in the local
election, also took issue with an
editorial which appeared in last
weeks Sentinel.
Mr.. Hit said the editorial
claimed Mr.. Hovsepian and his
council candidates had gotten
down to specifics in their plat
form. Nothing could be further
from fact" he declared.
1.-THE only specific thing in the
points made by Mr.. Hovsepian
and his group last week is that
they have been specifically lifted
from my February IL published
and often publically stated plat
FORM" Mr.. Hit said.
Hit charged also that the five
candidates backed by Citizens for
Good Government have made
only one thing clear in this cam
paign and that is their plans for
planning. Rockville needs more
than planning" he said, What
we need here is government by
business men and not part-time
government commuters"
In connection with a challenge
to open debate on election issues
made last week by Hovsepian,
Hit declared, Il see no reason to
enter into any public debate with
the Hovsepian crowd since we
all are in apparent agreement on
what's good for Rockville.
Hit said, Il am in this cleo
ton to win. AS a business man
and home owner here, l see
nothing but danger to my own
and other similar investments in
the community if ivory tower
planners get into office and
start planning ways to tax home
and business owners out of exist
ence."
my slate is pledged to strict
economy in government" Hit
added, because we recognize
that efficient government can't
dream away the bills that come
due the first of every month or
make interest payments on our
bonded indebtedness with rosy
planning pictures"
Hit and his slate filed their
petition of nomination last week
and became the second to file
and announce officially that they
will stand for election. Hits
slate includes Mrs. Elizabeth Tai

Hartman Machine
Is Running G G States
Campaign MilOr Says

Campaign MilOr Says
Campaign funds which have
been solicited by and contributed
to support of Citizens for Good
Government candidates by Fed
eral employees came under fire
this week when J. Warren Milor,
one of the mayorality candidates
fighting it out in Rockville cleo
tons, posed question on the
possibility of illegality of part of
the Hovsepian states campaign
fund.
Milor, member of the present
town council, said several federal
regulations and statutes certain
ly appear to ban the kind of cam.
paign funds drive which Citizens
for Good Government and its
candidates are conducting in
Rockville.
Milor said the question is of
considerable concern to him
since three of the five candidates
running under the Good Govern
ment banner are employees of
the Federal government.
His question on legality of
funds collected here came to
mind Milor said after he read a
May, 1853 publication of the U. S.
Civil Service Commission con.
corning Political Activities of
Federal Officers and Employees
Other Statutes
In particular, Milor said the
Good Government candidates
now running for office in Rock
lille do not appear to be violat-
ing the provisions of the Hatch
Act as they pertain to non-parti-
san elections" At the same time,
he added, the fact seems to be
that other statutes do prohibit
the kind of political activity
which has gone in the collection
of campaign funds"
Milor said according to his un-
derstanding of the Civil Service
publication, Federal employees
may not solicit or receive, direct
ly or indirectly, political contri.
buttons from another Federal
employee. He said definite pen
alties for violation of the statutes
are spelled out in the law.
At the same time, Milor added,
there is also some question in
my mind as to whether or not the
duties of the mayor and council
will, in any way, conflict with the
Federal employment of three
members of the Good Govern.
ment slate if they are elected to
public office in Rockville"
Federal Duties
Milor pointed out that Federal
law says Federal employees may
hold elective or appointive offices
requiring only part-tlme service,
providing that service does not
conflict or interfere with their
Federal duties.
Il think the public is entitled
to know from Mr.. Hovsepian,
well before election day, if he has
cleared with the Federal agency
that employs him. The law plain.
ly states" Milor continued, that
the Federal agency employing
man is the sole judge of whether
or not the holding Of a local of.

his official Federal duties
