MeWCombe Insists
$4,000 Price Not
Too Much For Sc

BROOKLYN, pitcher
Don Newcombe has met with
the Brooklyn brass to "feel
out" for his '56 contract and
though vice-prexy Buzzy Ba-
vaSi describes Don's asking for
$4,000 as "autrageous"--to
NeWcombe it certainly isn't.
He only made $17,5O0 last sea-
son.
Newconbe will tell you he
took a cut when he didn't de-
serve it and now feels he
deserves not only the cut re-
inStated but a good-Size raise.
Newk also says he was around
last year when Manager Al
Ston didn't have another pit
cher sound enough to go the
route but Don.
About the first meeting in
which there was a lot of kid
ding around, NeWk reported
There's one thing I'm not
kidding about and that's the
$4,000. I think Tn worth it,
Said Bavasi to that: HE de-
serves a raise and He'll get it.
but he won't get thirty"
Its a good guess that Ba-
vasi will offer Don a base of
$4,000 and return the $4,000
cut. Meanwhile, rengotiating
won't begin again until three
weeks.

Jackie Robinson
Talking Contract

NEW YORK Jackie Rob
inson is said to be among the
first to really talk SIS to the
Dodgers. Though there's NOT
to be any serious contract
confabS until early next
month, it seems that the case
OF Jackie Robinson is top pri-
orltyy and one the Brooks are
anxious to get into. Jackie
has said he would like to stav
on for another year but that
ne would not take much of a
cut. The Brooks are known
to feel that they want a man
who can play the 1874 game
schedule.

What were your ancestors
doing 100000 years ago? A
magazine asks the question,
and the answer is that no
matter what it was, they can't
be prosecuted for it now.
In saving money, the come
on is the thought that some
day one can take it all and
have a real big splurge.
WINTER weather conditions
create new driving hazards.
Motorists must now exercise
more care than ever to pro-
tect their own lives and the
lives of Others.

Planners in Northern Virginia
Discuss Area Water System

Fairfax County without the
shortages experienced in other
Jurisdictions.
Asked whether he favored a
study Of a possible regional sys-
tenn, Mr.. Head retorted: 1--WE
seem to be having lots of studies
lately. I've been studied to
death. We've had experts from
all over the place."
j. C. Smith, assistant engineer
for the Washington Aqueduct of
the Corps of Engineers. sup
pliers of Arlington and Falls
Church from Dalecarlia, said he
believes the Potomac River has
plenty of water to supply the
areas needs. He warned, how
ever, that legislation may be
necessary to prevent farmers
and other potentially heavy
users from asserting their
riparian rights" too strongly
and drawing of a large volume
Of water upstream.
In the next $50 to 800 years,
MIR. Smith said. even if the
Metropolitan Area population
rises to 4 million. the river sup
ply would still be adequate: It
may be necessary to provide ad-
ditional storage above Great
Falls. Mr.. Smith added.

Legislators Support
School Bond Plan

ANNAPOLIS, Feb. Is (Special)
The Prince Georges County
legislative delegation yesterday
virtually assured the County
School Board that it will intro
duce q bill here authorizing q
$40 million bond issue for school
construction through 1856.
In fact, three delegates in the
all-Democratic delegation. Her
vey G. Machen, Ernest A. Love-
less and Carlton r. Sickles, said
they think a SIS million bond
authorization would be a better
idea so there would be no ques-
ton that the school needs would
be met.
No action was taken on in
creasing the authorization, how
ever. since the county commits
sioners already have approved
the $40 million program pre-
Sented to the delegation by
county school officials.
The $40 million bond issue, If
the commissioners authorize it
under permissive legislative from
Annapolis, would be added to $5
million already authorized to
provide for construction of a
senior high school, two junior
senior highs, four junior highs,
seven elementary schools, eight
additions and purchase of IA new
sites.

Pool Permit Denied
In Fairfax County
By Appeals Board

The Fairfax County Board oi
zoning Appeals yesterday denied
two prospective swimming poo
operators "a permit to build on
81 acres Of land in the Holmes
Run subdivision, despite a Cir
cult Court reversal of q similar
decision last December.
The applicants, D. A. Brooks
and A. B. Fenton, first argued
their case last month but the
appeals board deferred a decision
In December, they had asked for
a building permit to construct a
swimming pool, tennis courts and
accessory buildings on Sleepy
Hollow road.
Applicants Appealed.
The request was denied by As
sistant zoning Administrator
William T. Mooreland. The ap-
plicants appealed to the board
on January 4.
In the background of the
boards decision, was the intent
of county authorities to limit
swimming pool clubs to nom
profit community organizations.
When the appeals board last fall
refused to issue a use permit to
Timberlake. Inc, a Delaware
corporation seeking to build q
pool in the Vale subdivision, the
landowner, Joseph Young, won
a reversal of the ruling in Fairfax
Circuit Court,
Circuit Judge Paul E. Brown
ruled the county ordinance did
not require a use permit for the
pool. On February 16, however.
the County Board of Supervisors
amended the ordinance to pro.
vide greater restrictions on swim
ming pool builders and to insure
that the pools be constructed on
q use permit basis.
Attorneys for the Holmes Run
applicants argued the ordinance
had not been amended when
the appeal was filed on jan
uary 4.
Other Bids Granted.
Attorney Harry L. Carrico.
representing the swimming pool
builders, said his clients have
not determined what action, if
any. to take next. Meanwhile,
attorneys esenting the
county are preparing to protest
the December circuit court rul-
ing in the Virginia Supreme
Court Of Appeals.
A request by william d. Dillin
and Reginald c. Vincent was
approved for operation of a pool,
tennis courts and a horseman-
ship school on Route 676, near
Brookside drive in the Providence
District.
Also granted was a permit to
the Tuckahoe Recreation Club,
which plans to build a 90-foot

ing.
Most Of the groups gave tor
priority to a suggested $225, ,00o
for teachers salary increases
Several associations said this fig
ure was not high enough.
The eight items for the fiscal

Northern Virginia planners,
pleased with progress on two
of their big projects, are mulling
over the idea of trying to set
up a regional water system.
In a meeting in the Falls
Church City Council chamber
last night, the Northern Virginia
Regional Planning Commission
heard spokesmen for water sys-
TENS in Alexandria. Falls
Church, Arlington and Fairfax
County. No action was taken
on the reports pending release
Of a Fairfax survey, expected
within a month.
Agreement by the same four
Jurisdictions to appropriate q
total of $4,000 for regional
juvenile detention home was re-
ported by Mrs. Charles Pickett,
of Fairfax. Mrs. Pickett told
the commission. 81 think we'll
have a detention home this
| year."
Fiscal Survey to Start.
/ BY May /, q fiscal survey of
Northern Virginia jurisdictions
iss to be started by DIR. Wylie
Fitzpatrick, public finance expert
of Gainesville, Fla. Arlington.
Alexandra, Falls Church and
Fairfax County have appropri-
,ated $4,000 for the study.
The water problem now before
the commission stems from
shortages in some areas of Fair
fax County and widely varying
rates by private and municipal
suppliers.
Spokesman for the Alexandria
and Virginia water companies
was j. ]. Barr, OF Philadelphia,
a vice president of American
Water Works. parent company
Of Alexandria Water Co. Alex
andria = Virginia expects to be
able to meet the needs of its
customers next summer, Mr..
Barr said, and already is plan
ming new pumping facilities that
will provide about three times
the present maximum need of
about 16 million gallons a day.
Return Held Inadequate.
The company has failed to
realize fair returns per
cent Of its investment-since
1946, he added. At present, there
is no intention of asking for a
rate increase. Mr.. Barr said, but
If new customers fail to bring in
enough added revenue, a rate
adjustment would be necessary.
William Jefferies, head of the
Arlington water department,
said an expansion of the coun-
ty's system now underway
should provide "all the water our
customers can use" by June l..
John Geiger, principal planner
for the Fairfax County Planning
Commission, said the hodge
podge' of more than rs systems
in the county had led the Board
Of County Supervisors to order
a survey.
Falls Church Escapes.
James Head, public utilities
director for Falls Church, said
the city had been able to serve
customers in the city and nearby
