At Least g Migs K In Area When US. Jets We're Attacked

r KUNSAN, Korea, tR-A US. Air Force squadron commander said Thursday there were at least B Communist Migs in the Yellow Sea area where his flight of eight Sabrejets was attacked Tuesday.
 It. Col. Robert E. Dawson told news conference half of the Russian-built jets flew protective cover for the attacking Commu- mist planes.
 Dawson related details of the eight-minute air scrap in which US. fliers shot down two Migs and probably bagged two others.
 The Air Force said all US. Sa- bres returned without a scratch. Gen. Maxwell D. Taylor, United Nations commander in chief, or dered a strong protest before the Military Armistice Commission against "the hostile and illegal at tack" by the Migs.
 Taylor sent the instructions to Maj. Gen. Harlan O. Parks, senior JUN. member of the Joint Military Armistice Commission in Korea. Dawson declared:
 tIt was impossible for us to make a hostile act towards them They were far above us.
 They were the Mig type air craft-exactly what series could not be established.
 There was no damage sus- tained at all by us. However, three different pilots said they were fired upon"
 The Red China radio said one Sabre was shot down and two damaged.
 Dawson, of Dayton, Ohio, said throughout this and other mis- sions I followed direct instruc- tionS to engage hostile aircraft only if attacked-to defend our selves" :"

US. Files Suit Against
 Six Big Publishing and Advertising Associations

NEW YORK, R-The United States Government Thursday filed civil antitrust suit against six major publishing and advertising associations.

The Rose Still Grows Beyond
The Wall
Near shady wall a rose once grew
Budded and Mossomed in Gods free
light,
Watered and fed by morning dew
Shedding ita sweetness day and
night.
AS it grew and blossomed fair and
Slowly rising to loftier height,
It came to a Icrevice in the wall,
Through which there shone beam of
light.
Onward it crept with added strength
With never a. thought of fear or
pride
1t followed the light through the
crevice length
And unfolded itself on the other
side.

were the scene of 1914 surgical

The quiet, tree-shaded, flower
splashed grounds of the Washing

attracted many famous people in
need of medical care. Madame

institution with baseball and
football players because of its

Sandy Spring
Had Library
AtEar!yDate

In 1887 Mary Fowler was ap-
pointed first librarian of new
library building erected across
the road from the Sandy Spring
post office.
The original collection of books
available to borrowers had been
established nearly a half century
before by William H. Farquhar,
Richard T. Bentley and Caleb
Stabler. The volumes were first
kept in a room adjoining the
Sandy Spring general store and
later at Sherwood School.
A writer of the day, unhappy
about the declining literary taste
of 18th century Montgomery
County, reproved, "The present
generation, with its daily papers,
frequent magazines, book clubs,
almost a surfeit of literature, can
form little idea of the pleasure
and benefit the few hundred
books comprising the library,
were to the generations gone or
approaching middle age"
Apparently the early Sandy
Spring library had trouble per.
suading borrowers to return "the
few hundred books. Pointing
out the custom in Japan of the
creditor removing the front door
of the borrower until an obliga.
ton is paid, Eliza N. Moore
wrote, IF this custom prevailed
here in regard to borrowed books,
how many of us would have the
use of our own front doors at this
very moment?"

and furnished to resemble a
home in some foreign land.
The result is visible today.
Forest Glen's administrative
buildings, wards, laboratories,
and offices are housed i'm a
Swiss chalet, Chinese pagOda,
an English castle, a Spanish
mission, and a Dutch windmill
house. Most impressive of all
is the. three-tiered ball room
with stained-glass windows and
a beamed ceiling 20 feet above
the floor. In front OF the main
building today rests a $50 year
old Istrian marble fountain inn
ported by the Cassidys from
the courtyard of an italian
MagnificO.

marriage records dating back to
1915 and a strong basis for the
belief that that services were held
at irregular intervals by visiting
priests as far back as the 17S0's.
When st. Martins parish in
Gaithersburg was established in
1920, the church of St. Rose at
Chopper was also to be served by
the priest at Gaithersburg and
the old ties with GAINESVILLE were
severed.
st. Martins, incidentally, is
planning the building of church
building in the near future. Arch
itectural designs have already
been drawn up and it will be
built in the style of an old Eng
fish country church.
AT our request, Father Meyer
showed us the old record books
of st. Roses which contained
many names still familiar and
active in the mid-county. We
found such family names as Gle
ments, Tawney, Chopper, Hutton,
Crown, Bibb, Waring, Ward,
and Gloyd among others,
All records were signed by the
first regular priest, Father M. P.
Gallagher.
An interesting note was many
of the baptisms and marriages
recorded for Negro slaves of the
various parish members were fol
lowed by the words, "the property
of so and so" to identify them.
Many of them, apparently from
the similarity of names, had tax
en- the family names of their
owners for their own sur-names.
