Another First
Is Scheduled
By Thurmond
By s. L. LATIMER. JR.

COLUMBIA, s. C.-Strom
Thurmond Che has dropped
his first initial, "J") is sched-
uled to set another precedent
when he resigns his seat in
the Senate next year and puts
it up to the voters Of South
Carolina as to whether. or
not, he should serve the four
remaining years of the full
term to which he was elected
as a write-in candidate last
November.
The situation arises because
Of q promise made by Mr..
Thurmond during his success
full campaign last fall. Sen
.ator Maybank died suddenly
three days before time for po-
litical parties to certify can
didates for the general elec-
ton. The State Democratic
executive committee took the
position that there was not
time to hold a primary, the
long established procedure in
this State. and. acting under
an emergency provision in the
election law, made the nomi-
nation itself. giving it to State
Senator Edgar A. Brown,
South Cardinals representa-
tive on the National Demo-
cratic committee. Immedi-
ately there was a loud protest.
When the committee stood
firm, Mr.. Thurmond an
nounced as a Democratic
write-in candidate in the No
vember general election. The
Democratic party officially
backed Mr.. Brown. but Mr..
Thurmond won by a decisive
vote.
During the campaign Mr..
Thurmond. who contended
that the people had been de-
prived of a Democratic pri-
mary, and that one could
have been held, made a firm
statement that if elected to
the Senate he would resign
his seat before the June pri-
maries of 1856 to allow the
people to say in a primary
whether or not he should
serve the full term, or just two
years.
In 1948 Gov. Thurmond's
candidacy for the presidency
on the States Rights ticket
caused South Carolina's elec-
toral votes to 60 to other than
National Democratic Party
nominees for the first time
since Reconstruction. In 1854
he set another precedent when
he became the first man in
the history Of the country to
be elected to Congress by the
write-in method.
NotionoI Precedent?
When he resigns next year
to let the people say whether,
he shall serve the remainder
of the term to which he already
has been elected. he will again
do something new. It will be
the first time such a thing
has happened in South Caro-
lima. and some believe in the
United States. >
Since Gov. Thurmond has
been recognized as a Demo-
crat in the United States Sen
ate, and named to party COM
mittee assignments, it is not
believed that any question will
be raised about his running
in a Democratic primary for
senatorial nomination. How
ever, before there could be
such a race the State Demo-
cratic Executive Committee
would have to order one. This
presumably would be almost

us you should have 8 to 10
square feet of surface for an
average family Of four. But
was our average family four?
So we beat on doors again and
surveyed some more. Sure
enough. four it waS-2.1 adults
and 1.9 kids per family. The
pool has 9.6 square feet per
family.
It cost $4,000 to get the
pool going, and about $4,000
a year to operate it. Original
investment came from share
purchases. and operation is
betrayed by dues of $40 per
adult and SO per child for the
15-week season.
The pool manager and three
guards cost $500 biggest
item in the budget. Second in
size is the $500 bill for puri-
flying the water with chemi-

Pool Co-ops Take Work,
But Pay Off Generously

rying a. roll of blueprints. One
occupational hazard of this
pool business he said. open
ing the. blueprints, "is that
you get cauliflower ear on the
phone. Here's our original
plan, the result Of our local
talent hunt. We discovered an
architect right in the commu-
nifty.
"It's curious how once you
: get started, you find such a
mixture of skills and volun-
teers within shouting distance.
That's 80 per cent of the bat
tle."
The phone call had been
from another volunteer pool
executive, who had asked him
to bring the plans over. While
driving there. the engineer
said the toughest problem Of
all had been to find suitable
land. I'VE ended up with AZ
acres" he said. "but our origi-
nal land budget Of $4,000 had
to be changed to $4,000. That
was why we had to increase
the number of shares"
Like most pool projects, the
idea was born in the local civic
association. But early in the
game a study committee
learned it was advisable to set
UP a special non-profit cor
poration.
There's so much in taxes
and large sums of money" he
said. "the average civic asso-
citation isn't equipped to take
it on. That's the general ex-
perience. I only know one case
where a civic association was
able to do 1t, and that was a
very big one"
The non-prof1t group in
question is run by a statis-
tician. Apparently one needs
to be q disciplined thinker to
make a go of a pool project.
One task was to talk a local
bank into financing individual
shares of stock for would-be
members. Another was to con-
tract for the services Of three
lifeguards.
Funny" the statistician re-
fiected. "all my life I've been
somebody else's personnel.
Now I've got the personnel
problems"

self, took the view that they
were just inexperienced.
I'VE had a lot of good peo-
pie on our committee" he
said. Most Of them, like me,
were experts in nothing. But
we also had a couple of law
yers. who are vital, and .
man who knew something
about construction, also vital.
None of us had ever been a
corporation director before,
so we'd sit and wrangle for

Summer heat clings as
heavily to Rural Woods. Va.
as to any community near
Washington, and each spring
day that sees the temperature
rise, some wife or other is sure
to remind her husband Of their
opportunity. a year ago. to join
q community pool-building
project.
Like most suburbs, Rural
Woods Is filled with cleanly
people whose inclinations to
own a swimming pool are
bounded on all sides by the
family budget. There can be
no unilateral pool projects on
incomes of $4,000 to $4,000.
Out of this dilemma came
the natatory coop, which at
least one sardonic sideliner has
termed "the swimming pool
Soviet" and which in practice
can be characterized as "blood,
sweat and volunteers.
One local pool manufacturer
says a community can get for
a mere $4,000 to $4,000 a
pool capable of serving from
$50 to 500 families. But where
to put the pool? Land. bath
house and parking facilities
can easily add another $780, 900
to $4,000.
Apparently suburbanites are
not easily daunted. The Fair
fax Zoning Board says 19 COM
munity pool projects have been
authorized in that county.
Arlington has two now build
ing; two are projected in
Montgomery, and two are being
talked about in Prince Georges.
None yet in the District.
Why Foirfox's Lead?
Reason for Fairfax's lead,
the pool manufacturer thought,
was mainly the idea got start
ed there. "A bunch of fellows
out at Holmes Run Acres were
first, about three years ago"
he said. Latest one to open
Is in South Woodley, in the
Falls Church area.
"zoning might be holding
things back in Maryland and
the District. Availability OF
land is also important. Com
munity pools should have at
least three acres"
Pool makers build pools, Of
course, but subrrbanites have
to start the machinery. The
young man who sparkplugged
one Of the latest pools is an
aeronautical engineer, with no
prior knowledge of swimming
pools other than a fair abil-
ity to tread water. His pool
will open the end of this
month. The other night, dis
cussing the effort he and his
neighbors had put into the
project. the engineer said
money-raising turned out to
be the easiest part. I'VE knew
pretty much what people
wanted to invest" he said.
I'VE did more knocking on
doors than a vacuum cleaner
salesman. We knew we could
count on about 300 families
at around $3.50 a share"
He smiled. Turned out we
needed 800 families at $3.50 a
share, when we got our final
cost figures together. The
first night we offered shares,
though, we took in $45, 900 in
as minutes. Never saw so
much money in our lives"
His remarks were interrupt
ted by his telephone ringing.

exposure, so place the camera on
{ tripod or other solid support.
You can also snap silhouettes
indoors at night. Once again, you
use a sheet for background. this
time stretching it across an open
doorway so that you can put a
light behind it.
just as for daytime shots, you
pose your subject, in profile, in
front of the sheet and make your
time exposure.
You can make silhouettes of any
subject that can be depended upon
to remain still during the length
of the time exposure. That rules
out most babies and pets. But
even then, it is worth taking a
chance, even though they might
move and ruin one picture. If it
works, the resulting picture would
be so much fun to have.

You needn't be handy with the
scissors, or trace something some-
one else drew, to make silhou-
cites. All you need is your camera
and your imagination put into ac-
ton at the same time-that'l give
you original ones that are truly
your own creation.
The first thing to know about
swapping a silhouette is the posi-
ton of your light. Usually, we
take pictures with the light in
front of the subject. But for a
silhouette, it definitely has to be
behind the subject.
For indoor silhouette making, a
sheet makes a good background.
On a sunny day YOU can stretch
the sheet over a window and pose
your subject-in profile, of course
in front of it. Darken the rest
of the room as much as you can
and you are ready to make a sill
houette. This will be a short time
