Fire in TwinbrOok House Brings
Quick Action, Help by Neighbors

Morse of Denfield Court had
noticed fire from the outside as
he passed on his paper route and
also gave the alarm.
The volunteers responded SO
quickly to the combined calls
that they were on the scene by
the time Mrs. Cheslosky was out
of the house. Although the Ches.
losky's had finished one bedroom,
they still used the trap door sus.
pended by the weight and pulley.
AS result, when the flames
reached the cord holding the
weight, the trap door slammed
down and served as barrier
which prevented the fire from
spreading down the stairwell, and
slowed the progress of the fire
by cutting off the draft of fresh
air.
Louise said almost the worst
sensation of the day came when
she heard the door crash down.
She had just gotten the children
down the stairs.
Once the fire department ar.
rived, things took an immediate
turn for the better. Among the
spectators who followed the fire
engines in was our Incompatible
Shirley Hatch.
Shirley and other members of
the swimming pool had planned
to clean up the house Joe Geer-
aert has let us have all during
the pool construction so that he
could put it back in rental use.
This mental chore has been Sin
the plans" for some time, but its
harder to get people to do
sticky" chores than it is to re-
cruit professional and technical
assistance for really big jobs.
Perhaps we should say equal.

Clyde Hardin and Shirley

Drake, John Eckhardt, Rudy

thing from shoveling to plaster
patching. While Sarah Ward and
Peg Sante worked after them to
insure thoroughly acceptable (by
homemaker standards job.

with a mechanical waxer and
Shirley did" the bathroom.
kitchen cabinets and refrigerator.
And what has this to do with
the Cheslosky fire? Well, Mr..
Geeraert just naturally turned the.
house over to the Chesloskys
until they can get their house re-.

paired enough to move back in
All the neighbors helped move
the salvaged furniture and the
homemakers clubs have helped
the family to get other furniture
to tide them over till some settle
ment is made for their loss.
In fact Mrs. Cheslosky says
most of her concern at the
moment is that she is unable to
acknowledge all the help she's re.
ceived because So many people
have been so generous.
And now back to Joe Geeraert,
who builds houses when he has
time out from his civic activities.
At the last meeting of the Twin.
brook Citizens Association, Mr.. C
was the principal speaker
Our newly installed president,
Bob Rapp, asked Paul James,
new vice president, to take the
gavel, so he could represent the
Getty" point of view on Mr.. Geer-
aert's request for annexation.
From the issue of Twinbrook
Life that was distributed before
the meeting, it was inferred that
there was conflict between the
builder and the city.
Mr.. Geeraert brought out in his
delightfully."- straightforward talk
that the conflict hinged on one
minor point. The city is reluc-
tant to share its jurisdiction, con-
troll, of any given area with the
Washington Suburban Sanitary
Commission.

lieved to be predatory by nature"

The fire which virtually con.
sumed the second floor of the
Chesloskys' house on Denfield
Street last Saturday morning
proved once again the unity of
spirit in Twinbrook.
The fire inspectors were UNI
able to determine the cause of
the fire which started sometime
after 7:45 am. Saturday and Is
minutes later had burned the
walls, studding, chests of drawers
filled with toys and clothes and
the rafters.
Speculation as to the cause in
cluded possible gas fumes escap-
ing from the heater, defective
wiring or spontaneous combus-
ton. Since no wiring had been
added since the house was built
and Louise had just done her pre-
Christmas cleanup of old toys
and playroom clutter, the last
two seem unlikely.
Mrs. Cheslosky had also done
her Christmas shopping and the
wrapped packages We're stored in
the one part of the attic which
escaped fire damage. (Some
thing different for Christmas this
year mittens with an authen
tic charcoal broiled flavor).
Mrs. Cheslosky was especially
pleased at the efficient and con.
siderate way the firemen worked,
so that almost all the damage
was from the fire itself before
they arrived, with a minimum of
water and "ax" damage.
Bernard Cheslosky had left
about 7:30 for work and Louise
was enjoying the children's post.
holiday fatigue which kept all
but five-year-old Cheeky" in bed
late.
Cheeky came downstairs to
have his breakfast but accepted
some cold turkey as a compro.
mise When he finished his
snack in his mothers bedroom
(where he wouldn't wake the
others), he asked if he could play
upstairs.
Mother said yes. He just
reached the top of the stairs and
called Mummy, come quick"
Louise responded to the queer
tone in his voice, saw flames
licking around the front window
(they have an A roof from the
floor almost to the top. She
reused the children, telephoned
the fire department, and rushed
back up to help the children
downstairs, into their coats and
out onto the street.

were crying on the inside, Alan

it is not responsive to the desires

This was acknowledged by Mr.
Geeraert, but he also pointed out
that his new houses, which he

whether or not they are in the

facilities will adioin the city
facilities in any case.
This proximity had been
brought out by the "city side as
threat to the city's sewer and
wafer system, since WSSC might
be tempted to take over the city

They don't need foothold. They
are already in.
AS the issues became more
clear, it became apparent that
there was really no conflict. The
city wants to expand, to strength
en- its tax base, etc, so the dis
cussion gradually terminated
with no vote being taken to estab-
lish TWinbrook's recommended
ton of the approval of the an
neXation.
What the annexation really
will mean for the city is taking
the bull by the horns and chal-
longing the home rule legislation.
To this end, it was recommended
that TEA work toward obtaining
a redistricting of this area based
on current population so that we
would be fairly represented at
Annapolis and thus facilitate the
passage of an amendment elimin.

was raised concerning loo a |
rumors to the effect that life
under WSSC, in the county out
side the city limits, is not only
lovely but eVer-so-muCh cheaper.
Many people have been under
the impression that if we simply
abandon the CITY charter we will
be free of the IS cents per 500
we pay as city tax. Well, we
would, but the gimmick is that
we would then be eligible to pay
a suburban tax and metropolitan
park tax, sanitary tax and other
taxes, all of which are very small
separately, but added together
they come to roughly IS cents
per 500.
While fair exchange is no rob
berry, there are such conSidera'
tons as the fact that one yea"
after the citizens of Rockville
made a big noise about water,
sidewalks and recreation facilities
in this town, we had water, many
sidewalks Qocated where the
citizens agreed they were most
needed - for instance, on one
side of two consecutive blocks
rather than on both sides of one
block, a small consideration eX-
cept to people with children
walking to SCHOOL, and a recrea-
ton program that is nothing
short of terrific.
This must be contraSted with
the speed with which the sewer
and water facilities ARE being
installed in Gaithersburg.
The sewer tax has been col
lected for about 20 years and the
county (WSSC) has been building
sewers for 20 years where they
were most needed" - in new de-
velopments, not in Gaithersburg.
