The District Commissioners
yesterday urged the Virginia
State Water Control Board to
turn down plans for a small
sewage disposal plant, which
would discharge into Scott Run
and the Potomac River above
the point where Metropolitan
Washington takes it's water.
* Noting that the developer Of
the Mclean Heights private
sewer project had estimated
the plant would handle the
sewage waste of some g.
900 persons the Commissioners
warned of overlooking that might
result from rapid development
Of the area. Such development,
they said, usually follows the
installation of sewer and water
facilities.
The Commissioners suggested

County 10 Take
Liquor Option

The Montgomery County Coun-
Gil yesterday voted to take up
an option on quarters for new
Four Corners Liquor Dispensary,
without knowing the terms of
the lease or the rental figure.
The council split 4 to 2 on the
vote, with Mrs. Stella B. Werner
and j. Grahame Walker in OPP
position and Jerry T. Williams
not voting.
The dispensary-the 10th In
the county operated system
will be located in the Woodmoor
Shopping Center owned by Ches-
ter H. Keller.
Bitterly opposed by church
groups in the area and by some
1000 petition signers. the site
earlier was rejected by the
county. The rejection was recon-
sidered after 81 persons signed a
petition asking for a reopening
Of the question.
Mrs. Werner, who led the fight
against the store. at one time
asked Councilman Robert T.
Snure If he had made a pre-
election agreement with Mr..
Keller and Willard B. Morris on
the store site. Mr.. Morris oper-
ates nearby clothing store.
Mr. Snure angrilly retorted:
II made no such arrangement,
prior to or after the election"
Council members after the
meeting conceded they did not
know the cost of the lease or
for how long it would run. They
voted to authorize County Man
ager M. L. Reese to pick up the
option due to run out today.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1955-05-25

IF the purchase already has
been made and the item is in use
the county can't hide behind the
charter and refuse to pay its
bills" Mr.. Hancock said.
Deliveries Confirmed
The survey team said so per
cent of the purchases are made
by the agencies themselves and
the purchasing Offices merely
confirms them on delivery.
Among examples of "slipshod'
methods in purchasing the sur
vey group cited:
/. A letter in the files of the
roads division of the public works
department whereby a vendor
agreed to do $1,000 worth of work
on a warehouse to be billed in
nine items all under $500.
2. Issuance of So purchasing
orders issued on the same ware
house totalling $23.520 in which
competitive bidding or contract
ing was bypassed.
3. Thirty-two purchase orders
for one supplier all at less than
$500 but totalling $10,465 for salt
for road work.
4. Payment over a 15-month
period of $4,000 to an engineer
ing consultant firm without
copies Of any agreement being in
the hands of the county man
ager or finance director.
The report said the county
failed to estimate needs in adj
vance to make its centralized
purchasing work. Unit price
agreements although made are
in effect nullified because of pur-
chases made at higher rates
through other suppliers, the re-
port said.
The report also was critical
of records, standards. bid handl-
ings, obsolete surplus accum-
ulations, testing of materials on
receipt, inventory and ware
housing.
The report praised the opera
ton Of the purchasing Office
whose duties were described in
general as clerical in nature.
Purchasing Assistant Mrs. Mil
dred Weaver has maintained
adequate performance of du-
ties" based on personal judg-
ment and integrity" the report
said.
The proposed ordinance set
for a hearing at 3 pm. June %.
would require competitive bid
ding on all purchases over $40.

Industry, Park Uses
Will Be Considered

A comprehensive study for
future development of the Alex
andria waterfront is scheduled
to get under way this summer, it
was disclosed last night at a City
Council meeting by Denis Cahill,
planning director.
Mr.. Cahill said the study,
which is expected to take about
six months, will list all present
land uses on the waterfront, the
condition of all buildings and
whether they are disable or con-
vertible to immediate industrial
use, will survey possible park
sites, and will make recommen-
dationS for development of the
area.
The Council last night also au-
thorized City Manager Ira F..
Willard to negotiate with Gen.
eral Services Administration on
the possibility of the Govern
ment vacating two large termi-
mails on the riverfront.
Going for Storage.
The action was taken after
Councilman Frank E. Mann said
the Government was using some
of the city's best port facilities
for storage. The terminals in
volved are the old Naval Torpedo
Plant at the foot of King, Cam
eron and Queen streets and the
old Ford assembly plant at the
foot of Franklin street.
The plans for the waterfront
survey were disclosed during a
discussion of the use of a filled
lot at the foot of Prince street.
Residents of the port section
want to use the lot for a park
but the city Traffic and Parking
Board has recommended it to be
used for parking.
Action on the question was
deferred until the planning COM
mission can make a recommen-
dalton.
Mr.. Cahill envisages a long
range improvement plan for the
port which would include an
elevated freeway along the Poto-
mac, and quay which would
allow ships to dock longitude
nally at a continuous pier along
the riverfront.
The freeWay would connect
with the proposed Jones Point
bridge on the south and with
Mount Vernon boulevard on the
north side of the city. Mr.. Ca
hills plans also include a 400
foot municipal pier at the foot
of King street which would be
used for docking pleasure craft,
Interested in Port
D. c. Book. manager of the
Alexandria Chamber of Com
naerce, told Council that his
group also is studying develop
ment of the port and a chamber
committee will meet tomorrow to
discuss action to obtain the Gov
eminent terminals for CONNER
cial use.
The Council gave final ap-
prevail to a $7.8 million budget
for 1866.
Final approval also was given
TO commercial reZoning of a Is
acre tract on Duke street oppo-
site the Army quartermaster de-
pot. Council amended a previous
approval and rezoned the land
up to 100 feet from Holmes Run
instead of $50 feet as was re-
quired in the previous action. The
250-foot requirement was made
to allow area for a future park
way along the stream, but the
distance was changed after the
applicant protested that only 10C
feet was required on a rezonine
made earlier farther down the
stream.

While the Pirates were running
and shooting they hit torrid 55 per-
cent of their. shots from the floor. But
when they slowed down they could
not maintain THE accuracy, nor get
the rebounds from the elongated
Kesler. They finished the night with
a 3O.5 percentage.
The Wildcats on the other hand, hit
for 46 perceht of their shots. Most
of them wen of the basket
variety, ana only in the late stages
of the contest could they connect

Pirates chances no little as they
could not keep Kesler contained and
also keep the Wiltshire club from
taking the long ones.
