The Washington area has

new urban growth within an

of the Metropolitan Area than
almost any area of its size.
There are still 1889 acres of

for new growth are in Fairfax.

In Prince Georges County there

Two Youths Are Freed
OF Attempting Extortion

Juvenile court proceedings
against two Greenbelt Junior
High School students accused
of attempting to extort money
from tw oother pupils were dis
missed yesterday by Judge Nita
S. Crane in Upper Marlboro.
Judge Crane said she dropped
the charges after the parents
of the two youths. one Is and
the other IA. asked for leniency.
and because the parents of the
other two pupils declined to
prosecute. ...
The judge said the youths
admitted they had threatened
"as a prank" physical violence
against the two fellow pupils
unless they paid tribute of so
cents each. She added. however,
she was not convinced it was
prank and warned the boys,
during a closed court session,
that what they had done was
"the way gangsters get started. :"

Neighbor's Charges
OF Threats Jail Man
Unable 10 Post Bond

A Gaithersburg (Md.) car
penter was jailed yesterday,
when he failed to post $500
peace bond in Montgomery
County Circuit Court.
Otis E. Keplinger, A, was
ordered to post the bond by
Chief Judge Charles w. Wood
ward. after a neighbor accused
the defendant of threatening
his life.
The neighbor, Maurice Spaul-
ding. 81. and his wife told the
court they lived in constant fear
of their lives because of Mr..
Keplinger's threats.
Judge Woodward ordered the
bond after reading Keplinger's
police record in the county,
which showed at least Is arrests
in the last 10 years.
Keplinger last month was
fined $50 for attempted assault.
after he tried to back his car
into police car last April.
Keplinger has been free under
$1,000 bond since August. when
Mr.. Spaulding took him into
Rockville Police Court on a peace
warrant.
Keplinger's record shows ar
rests for driving under revoked
permit, drunkenness. disorder
illness, assault and battery and
desertioh and non-support.

Alexandria Seeking
". ). Funds 10 Aid
School Construction

Alexandria is making a bid
for Federal help in its current
school construction program.
A resolution adopted by the
city council last night urges Vir-
ginia representatives in Congress
to support an appropriation of
$55 million to be allocated under
Public Law BIS to communities
called critical areas.
Vice-Mayor Leroy S. Bend
helm said the first $40 million
passed out under Public Law BIS
went to areas that had INSULT
cient schools.
He said Alexandria probably
could get 100000 to 100000 for
school construction if the SIS
million is appropriated by Con-
gress. He said this would give
the city sufficient funds to COM
plete it's current school build
ing program without additional
bond issues.
Over the objections of Mayor
Marshall j. Beverley the council
agreed to pay approximately
$50, 900 for 14-acre school site
at Brookville.
In other actions the council
appointed a committee to work
with the Alexandria Boys Club
in providing a new site for their
clubhouse, turned down a reso-
luton to discontinue police es-
cort service for bank money, au-
thorized representatives of the
Alexandria Association and the
Old Town Civic Association to
work with the city manager in
planning completion of the Ram
sey House restoration project,
and went on record against
State legislation to increase the
size of trucks permitted on Vir-
ginia highways.
