The association president, c.
Leroy Croft, issued the state
ment. approved by the group
last night.
The question of whether funds
are available for Madison arose
after the city agreed to buy Oak
Street School from Fairfax
County for $685., 900. The price is
$4,000 more than bond funds
tentatively allocated to the pur-
chase.
About $4,000 in bond money

spent without improving Madi-

Oak Street.
Failure to provide restrooms

Phoebus, Next Floor Leader,

Somerset Senator
Has Quick Wit,
Political 'sovvy'

ANNAPOLIS, April 5 R-
Senate Republicans have chosen
as their minority floor leader
next session a colorful 61-year-
old Crisfield automobile dealer
who takes pride in his "ornery"
individualism.
He is Harry r. Phoebus, Re-
publican of Somerset, whose
quick, homespun wit and prac-
tical savvy broke the Senate
loose from many a tense mo-
ment and led a colleague to re-
mark:
IF the University Of Mary
land had a chair Of practical
politics, Harry ought to occupy
it."
Mr.. Phoebus will succeed Rob-
ert r. Kimble, Republican Of AL
legany. who is leaving to accept
appointment by Gov. McKeldin
as head of the Department Of
Employment Security.
If he lives up to his record,
Mr.. Phoebus' role as spokesman
for the McKeldin administra-
ton will be anything but
peaches and cream.
Often Unpredictable.
His closest friends can't tell
which way he might move on a
key issue, and Mr.. Phoebus
oft-expressed criterion is: IF
it'll help the poor people, or
Somerset County. I'm for it."
But he is underestimate by
none in the Senate, Democrat
or Republican.
