WtASf1IINGlOIN Inc most
exciting single event that took
place in the Gath Congress as far
as l am personally concerned"
said Congressman Dante Fascell
today in giving a resume of the
past six months, twas the part
was privileged to play in restor-
ing the six million dollars to the
Central and South Florida Flood
Control Program"
FaScell was referring to the &C.
casion when he teamed with
Congressman Paul Rogers of West
Palm Beach to carry a fight to
the House floor over a cut of So
million in the appropriation for
this important Florida project.
The original request by the en-
gineers was for $6.3 million for
this project but that amount was
cut to 1913 million in committee
after a bitter fight.
In what appeared to be hope
less gesture, Fascell and Rogers
took the fight to the Floor where
they succeeded in having the full
amount of $6.3 million put back
in the bill.
Discussing the overall work of
the session, Fascell said, "Au in
all, l think the Congress accom-
plished lot of good work. l am
sure that there were many things
left undone that might have been
done, and some things that might
have been done better. As fresh
man, | certainly did learn a great
deal, and as time goes on and l
become more experienced, I am
sure that l shall be better able
to represent the people of Miami
and the Fourth District"
All of Fascell's work in Con-
gress was not confined to law
In January, a crisis de-
veloped between the Navy and
the citizens of Key West. The
Navy had threatened to with
draw their installation from Key
West unless the people of the city
made some effort to remove what
the Navy described as disgrace
full conditions" within the city.
Tempers boiled over, and al
though this situation had nothing
to do with his legislative duties,
FaScell assisted in quoting the
storm in the role of peacemaker.
He personally visited the Secre-
tary of the Navy with a group of
public spirited citizens from Key
West, and helped smooth over the
trouble.
When an alleged mail fraud
scheme was uncovered in Miami
by one of the local. newspapers,
Fascell went before the Post Of
flee and Civil Service Committee
and asked for an investigation.
His request was granted. The
committee not only will hold an
investigation in Miami, but will
carry it to other parts of the coun-
try and will investigate other
cases of unethical use of the mails.
FaScen is a member of the
Government Operating Committee.
His subcommittee assignments
include Public Works and Re-
sources, Executive and Legisla-
tive Reorganization and Military
Operations. His other committee
assignment is to the Post Office
and Civil Service Committee.
AS a member of the Post Of
flee and Civil Service Committee
he was credited with being
strong factor in the passage of
the nav raise hills for noStaI and

fStrth OF a Series
BY ROBERT J. LEWIS

The kind Of a site an archi-
tect has to work with is bound
to shape the house he designs.
II your lot is sloping, you are
in many ways fortunate. For
you can build into the hill, using
the basement as the ground
floor and the floor above the
basement as the upper floor.
As a result you have a one
story land basement house that
appears to be two full stories in
height from the down-hill side
Of the lot.
The award-winning house you
see on this page had that kind
of a site and it had q still fur
Their advantage. The lot sloped
off in the direction Of a pleasant
view of Lake Bancroft.
To retain this view and put 1t
to use as an asset, the architects
placed living room. kitchen and
outdoor deck on the upper floor.
Sleeping rooms and utility-stor-
age room were located on the
lower floor.
Owners are Mr.. and Mrs. Rob-
ert w. Komer. The architects
were Reyes, Smith, Satterlee d
Lethbridge. Builder was the
Stirling Construction Co. The
house is located at 1921 Stony
brae drive, Bancroft Lake Shores.
Fairfax County. Va. Floor plans
appear on Page B-6.
The Komer house is among IL
in the Washington area which
recently received meritorious de-
sign awards in the architectural
competition sponsored jointly by
The Evening Star and the Wash
ington Chapter, American In
stitute of Architects. The article
is one of the weekly series which
discusses the winners.
Except for the storage-and-
heater room. all rooms in the
house are located so that they
face the view.
On the side opposite the view
are a carport and covered walk |.
