Silver Spring Hospital

Another bill from last year
would set up a registration sys-
tenn for bicycles. The new mea-
sure likely will eliminate the in
spection system which snagged
passage of the 1855 legislation,
Other bills under study would
make Daylight Saving Time au-
Dramatically effective in the
county every year. eliminating
annual legislation; repeal the
county fireworks law: provide for
numbering new housing in the
up-county area. and clear up
technical conflicts in the police
retirement laws.

Bills which would speed the
construction of hospital in
Silver Spring head the list Of
Legislative proposals to be SUBJ
mitted to the Montgomery Conn
Ity Council when the council be-
gins its annual May legislative
session on Tuesday.
Robert N. Snure. council presi-
dent. is expected to sponsor a hill
authorizing a So million bond
issue for construction of 225-
bed hospital on Forest Glen road,
near Georgia avenue. The tacil-
lily will cost an estimated 81 mil
lion, with Federal and State aid
augmenting the raised por-
ton of the cost.
If adopted. the legislation will
provide that the bonds be amor
tized by taxing residents Of the
Silver Spring and Wheaton elec-
ton districts.
Bonding Authority Eyed
| Another bill under considera-
ton by some council members
would create revenue-bonding
authority. Such an authority
could issue bonds and amortize
them from hospital revenue. An
advantage of an authority set
up. its sponsors assert. is that
it could issue bonds in small de-
nominations for sale within the
county.
Similarly. the authority could
issue self-liouidating bonds for
such projects as airports and
parking lots.
legislation may be introduced
which will raise the present 40
cent ceiling on special taxes
which finance construction of
parking lots in such rapidly
growing sections as Wheaton.
Two bills which failed of pas
sage at the 1855 session will be
revived for the 1856 session.
| Library Rebate Considered
One. backed by Rockville city
officials, would rebate to Rock
vile the amount which the city'S
taxpayers pay in county taxes
for support Of the county library
system. Rockville maintains it's
own library. An estimated $10,-
900 a year would be involved in
THE rebate.

at Bowling Green, Ohio, Miss
Saint was ready to give her life
to the third grade. That she
would become an actress instead
and win an Academy award in
her first film, Waterfront. "
never occurred to her. And might
have gone on never occurring had
not her schoolmates kept insist
ing the third grade was a crazy
place for so talented a girl to
keep rendezvous with destiny.
Miss Saint, whom this rowing
reporter encountered few days
ago on location C"Raintree
County, in Danville. KY, is not
sorry she and life rendezvoded
elsewhere. Nor is she dismayed
in the slightest that her class
mates had a more likely idea of
the career she was cut out for.
Miss Saint who lives in a
bungalow on the fringe of DAN
vile, with her parents. a nurse
maid and the now 16-months-old
son for whom she wore that
maternity dress Academy award
night, is a radiant sort of girl.
One gathers there are two
main reasons for this; first, a
happy blend of genes in the
Saint family, and, second, the
nature and size of her part in
"Raintree County" A third fac
tor, for obseSsed collectors of
factors, could be that she is an
instant favorite of the visiting
press.
Miss Saint is the star actress
least likely ever to behave like
a star actress. She can play
neurotics to desperation but she
gives the impression that she
would not be one for all of
MGM's money.
Her role in "Raintree County
is that of Nell Gather the first
and last love, if not the second
and most anguished, of the hero
played by Montgomery Cliff. 1t
is blithe and comic and proves
that for all her excellence as the
tormented girl in Waterfront. :
Miss Saint is not to be type
cast in wiStful roles. She could
not be more delighted to be do
ing comedy and to be in a town
the size of Danville. After all,
1t is pretty much like Bowling
Green where she once had no
more vexing aspiration than to
be a fine third-grade teacher.
Any third grade youngster who
might, by the barest chance,
discover this about Miss Saint
and feel cheated will have to wait
only a few years to know her
choice was the best for both of
them.
The most popular male on the
set of "Raintree County" in
