T REMEMBER"
By THE oLo?fMERS

From Lonnie r.. Legge, Lewis
burg, West Virginia: remember
fifty years ago when the sound of
bugle brought us children running
from the little red school house"
to see three Italians leading three
muzzled, trained bears down the
country road. They stopped at the
village store some three hundred
yards away and the teacher let
us pupils 60 down to see them
perform.
The two large males were called
Charley and Gus, the other, their
mother, was called Mary. Charley
and Gus rode long poles the men
carried calling it riding stick
horses" Then they wrestied, while
dozen hound dogs kicked up
enough racket to give a grown
man the screaming meemies.
The mother bear climbed a large
chestnut tree which grew beside
my grandfather blacksmith shop
and picked chestnuts out of the
open burrs and ate them. She
wouldn't come down when called,
so two of the men climbed up and
beat her down while the third
snapped the chain on her before
she reached the ground.
These bears seemed to be very
large and of fawn color. To
great many people, bears mean
black bears. The United States
has but two species inland, the
grizzly and the black-the CHINA
mons and browns being actually
black bear. The black is staging
a comeback in a lot of states.
While the grizzly population is just
over 800, the blacks are estimated
at around 126.000

There were some indications
that the Adams county project
might be linked with a similar
land option deal now going on
near Caldwell, Ohio in Noble
county. Approximately 1000
acres have been assembled
there. One source thought both
the Adams and Noble county
areas might be used for guided
missile launching platforms. Yet

Adams county, Robert A. Cline,

1t is understood that the

about 10000 kilowatts Of electri-
city or about half as much pow
er as is consumed by the New
port Steel Corp. or one-third the
power that Armco Steel Corp.
uses at Middletown. Ohio.
Many individuals feel that Sc
curity is a factor in the area
because of the large acreage re-

tempt is being made to buy land
to block off the secondary roads.
Manufacture and storage of
defense materials or fashionable

a likelihood in view of the sites

that such materials could be

to protect stored items and
absorb the shock of enemy

quired 257 properties by negotia-

The bitter issue Of new roads
In Rock Greek Park figured In
two important actions this week
with highway enthusiasts
coming out on top In both.
In the District part Of the park,
the Planning Commission ap-
proved park plans for extending
the Rock Greek and Potomac
parkway from its present ter
minus near the Calvert street
bridge around the eastern edge Of
the Zoo to link with Beach
drive near Klingle road. Con-
struction is likely to start next
year.
In the second action. Federal
Judge Edward A. Tamm threw
out of court a suit seeking to
block construction of the inter
county belt road in a Maryland
park section east of Wisconsin
avenue. Property owners fight
ing the. road plan are to appeal.
Judge Tamm based his ruling
on a single point of law-uphold-
ing the Planning Commissions
right to approve the belt road
construction in the park.
But he chastened both sides
lightly for Consuming" the facts
in "a pageantry type Of display"
and added:
81 am surprised that counsel
on neither side has referred to
the forest primeval, the muir
muring pines and hemlocks.' be-
cause that seems to be the sem
timent that prevails in this ar
gument."
College Park motorists and
Maryland University football
fans had a major reason to
cheer this week, with disclosure
of plans for recruiting University
lane outside the campus.
The winding road, especially
during football games. creates a
nasty bottleneck for motorists
trying to get to q, S. Route /
and freedom.
The new plan, backed by
Marylanders and approved now
by the Planning Commission,
calls for a new road breaking
away from the present route in
back of the football stadium and
swinging northward to connect
with Route l through Paint
Branch Park.

No matter what happens from
now on between Washington's
planners and road builders, this
qualities as the week of the big
compromise.
For years motorists have been
watching a frustrating running
battle over major bridge and
highway needs. At times the
fights have become almost too
complicated to follow. And traf-
f1c conditions got steadily worse.
But within a few days, a basic
agreement turned up this, week
that could serve as a blueprint
of future improvements for years
to come.
The first result was agreement
on Senate bill calling for a new
bridge just upriver from Airing
ton Memorial Bridge. The meas
use, also authorizing a new span
at Jones Point. Alexandria, may
come before the Senate today.
Key to the agreement was a
general resolution of what will
make up the so-called inner
belt" system of roads around the
center of town. The new bridge.
and others agreed to tentatively,
will feed directly into the belt.
And the belt itself-designed to
feed traffic directly to whatever
major street the motoriSt wants
to hit-will make up some of the
most expensive projects in the
city.
1t all came about through COM
promise-pure and simple. Gen.
orally. highway officials can see
the new routes they want. The
plan also preserves the planning
principles that have started
much of the squabbling.
The way was paved by a series
of give-and-take conferences be-
tween District Engineer Commits
sioner Louis w. Prentiss and
Planning Commission Chairman
Harland Bartholomew. AS soon
as they. along with park officials.
saw eye-to-eye, the full Planning
Commission went along.
There's no evidence the bick-
ering is over. The planners make
it plain they haven't agreed to
the details of specific locations.
and the details purposely were
kept general.
But. at least, for the first time
highway officials have an ac-
cepted plan into which the de-
tails of specific improvements
can be worked out as the city can
afford to pay for them.
In another surprise this week.
the idea of a presidentially ap-
pointed commission to study all
phases of area transportation
problems suddenly came to life.
A double-barreled bill author
izing such a study has been DOR
mant for more than year. since
it's House passage. The trouble
was that the Senate tackled on
an amendment to set up a second
commission to regulate bus OPP
erations between the District
and Maryland.
House-Senate conferees revised
the bill Thursday and accepted
both commissions. With Con-
gress still showing no signs of
folding, its chances look good.
