Week of Lent, the following
schedule will be carried out in the
Catholic Church in Marydel: Palm
Sunday: The Palms will be blessed

urday midnight mass will be cele-
brated. Easter Sunday: Mass

reason for the Restored Holy

made for the benefit of our people
to help them re-live the sacred
events of the closing days of
Christ's life on earth. Originally
the Holy Weeks rites were per-
formed at the same hour of the
same day that the sacred myster-'
les occurred, but during the mid
die ages these religious services
were for various reasons, trans
ferred to morning hours; torn
from their proper time-setting on
Nov. 18th, 1855. The Sacred Con-
gregation of Rites issued decree
approved by Pope Plus XII, which
provided for the restoration of the
Order of Services of Holy Week

City Awaits Traffic Invasion

Rockville residents and mayor and council are
momentary expecting 24-hour notice from the State
Roads Commission that the next leg of the Washington
National Pike which will terminate at Montgomery
Avenue will be opened.
"A astminute desperate plan to block the opening
with human barrcade' has been abandoned by Mayor
Dckran Hovsepian who said Tuesday that he intends
to place the entire responsibility for the heavy traffic
congestion on Rockvilles main street when the new
leg opens Gov. Theodore r. McKedin and his execu-
tive department the State Roads Commission.
The mayor said that his decision to appeal to the
governors sense of fair play and justice" was the
result of Monday nights citizens protest meeting
sponsored by they West Rockville Civic Association.
AT this meeting it was decided to lombard the gov
ernor with kilograms, the 1200-sgnature petition ask
ing that the pike be kept closed until the next leg to the
Montrose interchange is constructed, and motorcade
if it can be arranged.
In addition, Mayor Hovsepian sent telegram to
the governor asking for meeting with him and the
State Roads Commission before the Germantown-Rock-
vile leg is opened This meeting would have to take
place before Sunday when the governor is scheduled
to leave for Europe.
State Roads Commissioner Russell H. Mccain in
an interview with the Sentinel Tuesday said that the
traffic signal at Shady Grove Road which the commits
sion is proposing bypass for through traffic
would be in operation that day.
