.Accotink Requests
Water Connection

The Fairfax County Santa
ton Department yesterday re-
ceived a request for a tap to the
county-owned water system in
Accotink. The little community
near Fort Belvoir has been vir-
tually untouched by the subur-
ban growth that has taken place
in the rest of the county.
II had to dig through dusty
records to see how to go about
making the tap" said william
Bell, assistant county sanitary
engineer. ~"But wen make it.
We're glad to get new business. ="
The application was for water
service to new department to
be built at Accotink. 1t will re-
quire a minor water main ex-
tension across Route SIT. The
Accotink water system. which
serves about so customers, was
installed years ago by the Fed
eral Government as an adjunct
to Fort Belvoir's water system.
The county acquired the Acco-
tink system about seven years
ago, and still buys water from
Fort Belvoir.

early next year. which will end
the moratorium on new home
construction in the area.

actually is receiving 10000 gall

pollution problem led to the
State Water Control Boards or
der to improve facilities.
Development of five subdivi-
sions in the Fairfax area has
been stymied by the Water Com
troll Board. which has refused to
approve their connection to the
Accotink Creek plant.
Completed in January
Mayor John c. Wood of Fair
fax said yesterday the plans
for expansion will be completed
in january. If contracts are
awarded the same month, the
project may be completed in
about q year. raising the capacity
of the plant to 2 million gall
Ions a day.
When the plant is completed,
the effluent dumped into the
creek will have a higher degree
of purity. Specifications call for
achieving 81 per cent treatment,
while the present plan is
equipped to give only So per cent
treatment.
The cost of the improvement
project has not yet been deter
mined, Mayor Wood said. The
project will be financed partly by
bonds and partly with Federal
funds.
Strong Complaints
The present plant has caused

Rocket Wins
Student Bid for
Research Job

HUNTSVILLE, Ala, Aug. II
(P).-Experts have shattered
Jimmy Blackmon's dream of
flying his homemade rocket, but
they invited him to come to
Redstone Arsenal-and work
there when he finishes college.
!, Linked with the finding that
lit would be dangerous even to
load the six-foot missile was the
highest praise for its workman
ship, and for the 17-year-old
Charlotte IN. CO. boy.
II only wish more American
youngsters had Jimmy's enthu-
siaSm for science" said Brig.
Gen. H. N. Toftoy, commander
of the arsenal where the Army
is working on rockets ranging
up to the long range Jupiter.
The rocket was flown to Hunts
vile at Army invitations for
testing after the Civil Aero
nautics Authority told Jimmy
hel could not fire it near
Charlotte.
Promised Gen. Toftoy:
Wen have some of our ex-1
perts discuss with Jimmy-as
one rocket man to another-the
few defects of this missile and
how they may be corrected"
John Womble, deputy chief Of
the rocket development labora-
tory-said laboratory calcula-
tionS showed Jimmy's rocket was
surprisingly close to several
motors already developed"
But an examination showed
the rockets fuel tanks were not
strong enough to Withstand the
|pressures to which they would
be subjected.
At Charlotte, Jimmy said
Naturally. was disappointed"
to learn that his rocket would
not be fired. But he said he was
glad to get the invitation to visit
Redstone.
Jimmy, who will be a senior
this fall at Phillips Academy in
Andover, Mass, has no plans for
building another complete rocket.
But he said he might build just
a motor and test it.
