ANNAPOLIS, Feb. 10. - The
Washington Gas Light Co. would
have the authority to store
natural gas in huge underground
reservoirs in Maryland, under a
bill before the State Legislature
today.
The company sought the same
legislative authority without sue
cess a year ago. Recently it an
nounced that it has been max
ing exploratory drillings in
search of a natural underground
storage reservoir in Southern
Prince Georges County.
Company officials. at that
time, limited that the ability to
store large amounts of natural
gas close TO Washington could
result in lower rates to its $50, 900
District Area customers.
The bill introduced here yes
terday by Senators H. Winship
WheatIey, jr., Democrat of
Prince Georges, and Edward S.
Northrop, Democrat, of Mont
gomery, would give gas storage
companies the right to acquire,
by condemnation If necessary,
lands at least 500 feet below the
surface for reservoirs.
The bill requires an order and
hearing from the Maryland Pub
lie Service Commission before
any storage company could con-
denim land for an underground
reservoir.
That is substantially what
was provided in legislation in
troduced here last year by Mr..
Wheatley's and Mr.. Northrop's
Republican predecessors. The
bill died in Senate committee
after being opposed by fuel oil
interests.
Washington Gas Light now has
options on some 10000 acres in
the Rosaryville-T. B. section of
Prince Georges. officials have
said initial drillings there have
been promising.

ANNAPOLIS, Feb. 10. - The
University of Maryland, under
Gov. McKeldin's proposed $3.50
million budget, would receive
$18.938, ,789 in operating funds
and $3.057,000 for capital i'm
provements.
That's enough. according to
the Governor, to set the univer-
sity straight with the Middle
States Association of Secondary
Schools and Colleges, which crit
icized Maryland in a lengthy
accrediting report last year. The
association deferred a decision
on reaffirmation of the Univer-
Sity's accreditation until April,
1856 in order to give the school
time to correct its alleged de-
ficiencies.
The operating appropriation
recommended in the Governors
budget is almost 81 million high
er than the university's current
appropriation of $17,002,937.
New Posts at University.
Much of the increase would
go for 318 new positions, includ-
ing a newly-created $12,000-a-
year post as assistant to the
president, DR.. Wilson H. Elkins.
OF the new positions, 118 will
go to University Hospital and

which received the severest crit
icism in the accreditation report.

get another big subdivision.
Approximately 260 acres on
the south side Of Braddock road
a half mile west Of Springfield

tural to suburban residential by

plus an almost equal amount of
land previously rezoned for SUI
burban use will be developed
into a community of approxi-
mately 1900 homes to be known
as North Springfield.
The rezoning application orig
inally included more than 500
acres, but Mr.. Carr agreed to de-
lete half of the request on rec

commission. He said he had
other plans for the remaining
