test are those persons who are,
in fact, under the influence.
Neither will this bill make it
mandatory for a police agency to
go Immediately into such a pro-
gram, but it does clear the way
for them to adopt this valuable
enforcement technique. This par
ticular statute is not a new idea.
1t is suggested in the Uniform
Vehicle Code and has been en-
acted by eighteen states.
The passage of this bill into
law can mean the saving of count
less lives on Maryland's streets
and highways, both directly and
indirectly. First of all, this law
and the use of tests will deter
would be violators from driving
and greatly reduce the accident
toll each year. Secondly, and just
as important, innocent motorists
will not be jailed on suspicion
and left to die suffering from
some other ailment that gave an
appearance resembling drunken
ness. Every year, we hear of
many cases where a diabetic, a
person suffering from a serious
head injury, someone with a
brain hemmorhage or other SIM
liar illness or injury was jailed
as a drunk suspect and died in
a cell for lack of proper medical
care. The results of a chemical
test will eliminate this possibility
from occurring.
Nothing can be more import
ant than the saving of lives. We
earnestly hope that the Legisla-
tors representing the motoring
public throughout the State will
give this bill the consideration it
deserves, and it then will become
law in Maryland.

Joseph B. Bunker, who formed
the first YMCA unit in Mont
gomery County, was honored at
a testimonial dinner which also
celebrated the 10th anniversary

Church recently.
After AZ years of service with
the various phases of Y work,
Mr.. Bunker will retire Jan. %
as executive director of the Be-
thesda-Chevy Chase Y. Back in
1915 a committee of prominent
citizens invited Mr.. Bunker to
serve as the county's first Y sec
retary. He came here from Will
mington, Del, where he was
program director for the USO
during World War II.
A native of Holidaysburg, Pa,
he was graduated from Spring
field College, Mass, in 1915 and
began his career with the Inter
national Committee of the Y
serving in the foreign work de-
partment. During World War I
he was assigned to the Russian
division in Siberia. After that
war he held various executive
positions in Cleveland, O.; New
London, Conn; and Deland, Fla,
for the Y.
Farewell tributes were paid to
Mr.. Bunker at Thursday nights
affair by Lewis T. Breuinger,
president of the YMCA for metro
politan Washington, principal
speaker, and George E. Harris,
as POSTMASTER, on the manage
ment committee for the local Y.
On behalf of the committee of
management Reg Ingraham pre-
sented Mr.. Bunker with a port
able typewriter and a check. The
professional Y staff honored Mr..
Bunker with a plaque in recog-
milton of his AZ years of service

RED-TAILED HAWK
(Buteo borealis)
Sometimes called chicken hawk or hen hawk.

RANGE: Breeds from Canada to
Florida, winters from New York
to Mexico and Gulf Coast. Is
found all over Maryland in both
summer and winter.
DESCRIPTION: Is the second
largest of our common local hawks
and is classed among the soaring
hawks in contrast to the darting
and diving hawks. Usually OBJ
served soaring or perching in some
dead tree where it's alert eyes can
spot prey. Length of female about
23 inches, male 20 inches. Dark
brown above and whitish under
meath with black streaks. Red
band near end of tail.
BREEDING: Nests in trees 80 to
10 feet from ground, lays 2 to 4
dull white eggs generally irregu-
larly marked with cinnamon brown.
Incubation about % days by
female.
HABITS: Definitely this is one of
our hawks that should be pro-

tected as it does more good than
harm. Unfortunately it is large
and conspicuous; it is blamed by
the hunter and farmer for depre
dations caused probably by other
birds and mammals. Its food is
over $3.50 mice; few birds; de-
stroys snakes including rattle
snake. DR.. A. X. Fisher examined
the stomach contents of 562 red
tails, of which only 81 contained
poultry or game birds, 81 small
birds, 228 stomachs contained mice,
81 reptiles, 131 mammals other
than mice, including probably
rabbit or two.
MANAGEMENT: None; it is a
wild wandering bird, stopping
where food is plentiful. Its num-
bers would naturally increase if
the senseless killing of these bene-
fetal hawks was prohibited.
VALUE: Valuable as a destroyer
of mice, rats and other injurious
rodents, insects and reptiles.

conditions that will give an ap-
pearance resembling alcoholic in

agenc.~i II The State whether this
leg,sla,-on 4s passed or not. You
might ask, then why pass the
bill! Without the yardstick on
degrees of intoxication that are
SET Ior,n IN this bill, it would be
necessary for the police to obtain
the services of an expert witness
TO nl,Drpret these results for the
courts, whenever test results
were introduced in a case. If the
bill is passed, the blood alcohol
levels will be part of the State
law and the courts can be guided
by these standards without the
expense of hiring. an expert to
testify.
When no longer confronted
with the prospect of having to
pay for these experts to testify,
the enforcement agencies in the
States will institute chemical test
programs. Let's take a look at
what happened in other areas of
the country when these programs
were undertaken. In almost every
instance, the number of arrests
and convictions for driving under
the influence have increased ire
mendously. The police will make
more such arrests because the
test results give concrete evidence
that cannot be blamed on any
thing but alcohol, and their
chances of getting convictions are
greatly increased The courts will
convict many more suspects be-
cause they will have reliable
scientific evidence that removes
any doubts about guilt or limo
cencc.
When arrests and convictions
arc increased, the accident toll
takes a corresponding decrease.
Two typical examples of this eff.
feet car be shown through look
at the statistics reported by the
City of Detroit and the Michigan
State Police. Over a period Of five
years in Detroit through the use
OF chemical tests, a stern court
policy sending all drunk drivers
to Jail and much publicity to the
campaign, fatal and injury acci
dents involving drinking drivers
were reduced by 70f6. The Michi
gan State Police reported that
there was reduction of 4796 in
accidents resulting from driving
under the influence of liquor aft
er the tests were inaugurated.
The passage of this bill will
in no way make it mandatory
or compulsory for a person to
submit to a test. However, the

Now Is Time
To Trim Trees
Expert Says

Anytime is a good time for
trimming trees. but dormant
pruning has certain advantages.
That's because such trimming
helps not only the tree, but the
surrounding landscape and lawn,
as well. Trimming now doesn't
mess up flower beds, shrubs or
lawn as it is likely to do in the
late spring or summer. And the
tree man has more time to devote
to this chore than during the hcc-
tic growing season.
= The initial furry of spring
growth largely is in ratio to the
stored reserves of sugars and
starches in all woody portions,
points out H. E. Rioux, field rep
resentatiVe of the Davey Tree Ex-
pert Co. Biggest food reservoirs
are the trunks and larger branch
eS.
Removal of smaller inside
branches at this time helps trees
unfold their foliage in fuller
glory later. Inside twigs and
branches are not in a position to
receive their full share of sun
light. Because of this, they pro-
duce and store a minimum of
food. Such unneeded inside woody
