4houldered pleas that public

be held at night instead of in

could attend.

County PTA Council and the
League of Women Voters for a
change in the hearing date. board
members stood pat on a decision
to hold the session in the boards
bfice at Upper Marlboro at 2
pm. Tuesday.
Originally, the hearing, first in
the School Boards history. had
been set for August 20 at night
in the Bladensburg High School
Last week the board switched in
favor Of an afternoon session.
Mrs. Margaret Cohant, PTA
council president, told the board
more than half of the erganiza-
tons unit presidents are men
who want a night session. She
said one-week advance in the
date makes it more difficult fol
the PTA to distribute literature
on the program among members
for study before the hearing.

The board indicated it will take
