1t is easy for isolated items to
get lost or laid aside, and they
never seem to get united with the
main column. So do call in early
over the weekend.
We turn our news over to a
very willing neighbor for trans
portation to Rockville, and not
being DESTROYS of imposing, we
hand it over at a respectable hour
on Sunday evening.
And, by the way, we do want
to give very sincere thanks to
those of you who have made this
job much easier by your alertness
to the goings-on in Gaithersburg
and your wonderful cooperation
in calling these events to our at
tention. You have been a real
help. Just keep it UP.
