Liquor Pouring Permits
Increase Asked in County

An increase in liquor pouring
licenses for Montgomery County
restaurants, provided the es-
tablshments meet specific oper-
ating conditions. was advocated
last night by the Allied Civic
Group.
The organization adopted a
resolution proposing that the
county's current laws should be
modernized without relaxing
stringent control over the licens-
ing of the sale of liquor for pub
lie consumption"
The group said these oper-
ating conditions should be from
sale Of food, sale of liquor must
be only incidental to the sale of
meals, appropriate curfew hours
must be established, and an
annual licensing fee not less
than the present $1,000 must be
paid.
The group decided that any
proposed changes in the coun-
tvs liquor laws should be put
to referendum.
Members turned down a pro-
poSal of William r. Richards,
Silver Spring attorney, that
would permit restaurants, fra

tions to have up to 40 per cent
of their business in liquor sales.

The Montgomery County
School Board decided last night
to try to increase it's spending
FOR textbooks by 100000 a year
after hearing testimony that
some students do not have
enough textbooks and many are
not permitted to take them home
because Of a shortage.
Board member Wayne Birdsell
said his child had been without
textbooks in two subjects. DR..
Thomas Pyle. assistant super
intendent. said last years ap-
preparation of 1921 900 for text
books was simply not enough to
provide book per pupil in the
basic subjects"
DR.. Forbes H. Norris. superin-
tendent of schools, told the
board some books are being
passed from class to class be-
cause there are not enough to go
around.
The board voted to raise
spending on the high school level
to $24 for textbooks for each new
student in the system and allow
Sc for replacement books for
students already enrolled. On
the elementary level, the pro-
posed allotments will be $18 and
$3.50.
One Dissent
The vote on the issue was 5 to
1. with Wylie Barrow protesting
there was insufficient informa-
ton to raise the textbook pur-
chasing standard from last years
lower allotment. Harrison King
abstained from voting.
The textbook question came
as the board began deliberations
on the 1957-58 budget.
The session saw a sharp differ
ence of opinion develop between
DR.. Norris and the Montgomery
County Education Association,
which represents the teachers in
salary fights. DR.. Norris found
his proposal to provide $780, $50
for additional pay for varsity
sport coaches in the high schools
opposed by the association,
which wants pay raises across
the board.
Cites Long Hours
DR.. Norris pointedly told an
association delegation that quite

will continue to fight for extra

funds for expanding what he
considers an inadequate sports

schools.
In the forthcoming budget, he
will ask $4,000 to build a stad-
ium at one Of the large secondary
schools. At present, only one of
IL senior high schools has a

The Education Association,
through its spokesman Eric

scale for next year. The scale,

Stepping Back I,5OO Years

VATICAN CITY - NC
A new network of catacombs,
found during excavations for
the foundations of two new
buildings, has proved to be
one of the most important
archaeological discov cries
made here in modern times.
Jesuit Father Antonio Ferrua,
secretary of the Pontifical Com
mission for Sacred Archaeology,
callvd the catacombs ga fourth
century art gallery"
Although the work of explor-
ing, cleaning and restoring the
catacombs has just begun, more
than so finely worked frescoes
have already been found.
The catacombs are 68 feet be-
low street level, near the ancient
Via Latina, a street that angles
off from the historic Appian Way
south of the city. They are in
the same vicinity as the cata-
combs of st. Callistus, visited by
large numbers of people who
come to Rome.
Many catacombs have been dis
covered in past centuries. Some
have been lost, then rediscovered
after hundreds of years. The ex-
istence of still others has been
known from ancient records, and
these have been found after a
long search.
The cafscon1bs Of the Via
Latina are called true dis
covery" because there had been
no record Of them and their
existence was Unk nown TO
scholars.
Three sections of varying age
make up the network of the cata-
combs thus far explored. Like
many others, the new catacombs
contain several small chapels,
rows of common burial shelves,
special burial places for people
of distinction and steps hewn in
earth leading to several levels.
The distinctive features OF
the new cafaeombs, however,
are the imposing architectural
forms that were used in them
and the quantity and quality OF
the freseoes.
According to Father Ferrua,
the frescoes are superior to any
others yet discovered. Several
