Residents BaIk
Langley Park
Rezoning Plea

Langley Park area residents
were successful yesterday in de-
feating efforts to rezone fol
commercial purposes tract
near the southwest corner of the
New Hampshire avenue Univer-
sity lane intersection.
The Prince Georges County
Commissioners denied the appli-
cation from Max CORN and
others at hearing in Hyatts-
vile after spokesman Of the New
Hampshire Greens Citizens AS
ISOLATION and the Federation OF
Civic Associations complained
that the rezoning would en-
croach on adjacent residential
areas.
The same argument led the
commissioners in another case tc
defer a decision on two petitions
from Walter L. Green for the
Irezoning from residential to
commercial of two tracts in Col
Ilege Park.
One tract fronts 400 feet on
the east side of the future relo-
cation of University lane about
300 feet east of the Baltimore
boulevard. The other extends
about 200 feet on the west side
of the relocated University lane
Also deferred was a decision
on a petition from the Greenbelt
Land improvement Corp. fol

residential east of the National
Guard Armory. The tract fronts

Ru|ingsUrged

An amendment to the Mary
land constitution authorizing the
Court of Appeals to give advisory
opinions on the constitutionality
of bills passed by the General
Assembly but vetoed by the
Governor was recommended yes
terday.
j. Bond Smith, general coun-
sci of the Observation-Disclosures
Capital Park and Planning Com
mission, made the suggestion at
a meeting of the commissioners
in Riverdale.
Veto Suspends Bill
Under present procedure, bills
vetoed by the Governor are held
over until the next session of
the General Assembly until the
veto is either sustained or over
ridden by the legislators,
/ This leaves vetoed bills in a
state of suspension for eight or
nine months during which no
body knows whether they are
unconstitutional, Mr.. Smit h
said.
He referred to a recent bill
Ireorganizing the commission
which the Court of Appeals re-
fused to review. Mr.. Smith
pointed out that the Legislature
upheld the Governors veto; but
If it had not, the commission
might have been completely par
alyzed until a suit could have
been brought to determine con-
stitutionality of the bill.
Inconsistency Charged
Mr.. Smith said the courts re-
fuSal to review the bill was in
consistent with a previous will
Iingness to review a bill that
affected establishment of a
charter government in Mont
gomery County.
The constitution provisions re-
.quiring the return of vetoed bills
to the Legislature for action was
adopted in 1850.
Mr.. Smith said uncertainty as
to the validity of vetoed bills
could produce a threat to any
State agency.

|cism from irate citizens, ap-
peared amazed as spokesman for
Montgomery County civic or
foundations proposed a tax rise
if necessary, to foot the bill.

volumes presented to all at
tending.

Delinquency Spurs Study
OF Foirfox Recreation

Confronted with a Startling
increase in juvenile delinquency,
the Fairfax Board of County
Supervisors has decided to I'M
Idertake a professional survey of
the county's recreation needs.
The supervisors Yesterday in
lstructed County Executive c. C.
Massey to negotiate with the
National Recreational Associa-
ton for a survey at a cost not
to exceed $4,000.
| Appointment of an advisory
committee to work with the sur
lvey team was authorized.
Doubled in Year
Board Chairman Joseph H.
Freehill reported juvenile delin-
quency doubled in the county be-
tween 1854 and 1855. About 500
boys and girls were in trouble
with the police during 1854. and
the figure rose to 1926 last year,
he said.
IF you think those figures are
startling, look at the record for
last MONTH" Mr.. Freehill con-
Itinued. "In February, 174 young
|sters were charged with crime
lin our county. And I am sorry
to say that 81 of these cases in
volved felonies.
1T is time that we do some
thing about it. The summer play
ground activity, which has up to
now constituted our recreation
program, is not sufficient. We
need a year-round, permanent
recreation program which should
be combined with a greatly ex-
banded park program"
Before embarking on any per-
manent park or playground pro-
gram, however, the county first
should determine its needs, said
Mr.. Freehili. He added he did
not mean the county should not
make adequate provision for rec
reation in the coming budget

Sidney S. Chernick. president Of
the North Kensington Citizens
Association:
Would you be willing to pay
an increased park tax to get
what you want?"

Mr.. Chernick replied his group
would welcome an increase of the
tax from the present 6 cents on
each 500 of assessed real estate
value to 10 cents if it was neces-
sary for completion of a park in
the Kensington area.
Mr.. Oliver put the same ques-
ton to others. They, too, agreed
to a park tax increase, if nee
essary. However, they did not
specify any amount.
John w. Newman, an attorney
representing the Suburban
Builders termed a $4,000 budget
item known as the revolving
fund "too Inadequate" 1t is used

more realistic figure, asking the
commission to seek an admin

the present 3 cents per 500 as
seSSed real estate value to 5
cents to cover the cost. :
No one present raised an OBJ

commit itself on whether it
would set in motion machinery
to obtain such tax hikes.

Lilly Chapel Correspondent Likes To
Raise Calves; Enjoy Country Music

Betty Jean Edmister is one of
the newest correspondents for this
newspaper, and she is considerably
the junior member of the CORES
pondent staff. And she is the only
one of the correspondents who
gives her occupation as farming"
She lives on the farm near Lilly
Chapel with her grandfather and
her grandmother, and she actual
ly does considerable farming. She
drives the tractor for hauling and
general farm work, she helps with
the milking, cares for the hogs and
calves and does most of the chores.
They milk eight cows by hand,
and most of the cows are the same
little calves Betty Jean grew from
week old calves. The calves are al
ways hand fed, because they make
faster growers and also permit
more milk to be put on the mar
ket.
She is a graduate of Fairfield
High school where she completed
the full four year course in just
three years. She left high school
with her diploma in 1949.
AS far as hobbies are concerned,
Betty Jean would probably say her
hobby is growing calves, but she
enjoys other things too. She col
lects snapshots and she sews, plays
the piano and likes sports. She is a
great fan of good country music.
Incidentally, she is single, but
