School Bonds

The newly elected Falls
Church City Council last night
refused to let residents vote on
q proposed $750.000 bond issue
for school improvement.
Denying pleas of 20 residents
favoring a referendum on the
bond issue. the council de-
feated by a vote of 4 to 3 an
ordinance which would have
authorized the referendum in
the November 5 general cleo
ton.
A 5-to-2 vote was required to
pass the ordinance considered
by city officials last night for

They were supported by Rob-

Brooke g. Co., Richmond, which
has purchased the city's recent
bond issues.
Mr.. Brooke wrote the council
that another bond issue now
would be "inopportune" and
destroy his efforts to obtain
a change in the city's bond
rating by Moody's Investors
Service from BAA to A.
Mr.. Seymour said he voted
against the referendum because
residents cant stand" the nee
essary tax increase to finance
the bond issue. 1T will not hurt
to delay for a year or two" he
said.

Closed-Circuit Pay TV
Sought by D. c. Firm

The Washington Broadcast
ing Co. today asked the Dis
trict Commissioners for au-
thority to establish a closed
circuit wire television system
here.
The closed circuit would offer
viewers such fare as feature
films, Broadway plays, operas
concerts and sporting events
not carried on network tele-
vision because Of prohibitive
costs and other factors.
If permission is granted the
company later would seek to
expand to nearby Maryland
and Virginia areas.
Subscription Basis
Henry Rau, company presi-
dent. said the service on a sub
scription basis would provide
viewers with programs not
presently seen on commercial
television and would not be
competitive with it.
He said approval Of the Fed
eral Communications Commits
sion was not required because
the programs would be piped to
the homes Of subscribers by
cable and would not be lover
the air" in the manner Of COM
mercial television.
Mr.. Rau said present sets
could be used simply by adding
a switch. The cost would be
assessed either on a fiat
monthly charge or a monthly
charge plus a fee for the pro-
grams viewed.
Cost to the subscriber has
yet to be worked out, but Mr..
Rau said it was hoped the fee
would be comparable. to that
now being assessed on a pioneer
closed circuit in Bartlesyille,
Okla. The cost there is $3.50
a month.
The Oklahoma system was
introduced a week ago with 300
original subscribers out of a
potential 5000 homes. 1t was
that 1000 homes
would be q break-even point
for the company. The day
after the opening program, 70
more homes joined up.
Applications Elsewhere
Mr.. Rau said similar appli-
cations are being . sought by
other companies in Los An
geles. San Francisco, Denver
and other points. 1t is possible

MSgr. Dorsch said only about

Judge Asks
Probe Of Paper
Him

LEONARDTOWN, Md, Sept.
10 (Special) A Circuit Court
judge here has asked a grand
jury to investigate the posi-
bility Of indicting a weekly
newspaper which has been crit
ical Of him.
Judge Philip H. Dorsey. IT,,
instructed the jury yesterday to
look into some editorials of the
Lexington Park Enterprise,
which criticized his appoint
ments to Boards of Property
Review, set up to work on roads
condemnation suits.
The paper has been sharply
critical of the appointment of
two such boards and it strongly
opposed Judge Dorsey in his
campaign for the bench last
year.
After the attacks on the APP
pointments by the 4,5OO-circu-
lation weekly, former State
Sen. Paul Bailey resigned as
lawyer member Of one Of the
three-man boards.
Issue Of Malice Raised
In his instruction yesterday,
Judge Dorsey told the st.
Mary's County jury:
When a newspaper delib-
erately attempts to warp the
facts and convey q false i'm
preston editorially, it is not
acting in good faith"
He asked the Jurors to de-
termine II the editorials were
written with malice designed
to hold the boards up to ridi-
cule and destroy public conf
dence in them.
Alfred looms, editor Of the
paper. said the judges action
is an attempt to silence the
paper"
Contempt Indictments Possible
The judge told the jurors
they could indict Sheridan
Fahnestock. owner and pub
Usher Of the paper, and the
author Of the editorials for
contempt Of court If they wish.
The jury. headed by George
E. Guy. county businessman. is
scheduled to end deliberations
this week.
Judge Dorsey has long been
a strong man in st. Marys'
politics. He served in the Gen.
eral Assembly for a total of 10
years at various times and was
Peoples counsel for many years
He ran unsuccessfully for Con-
gress once and was an unsuc-
cessful candidate for attorney
general another time.

morrow.
At this mornings session,
DR.. Irwin M. Cushner, a Balti-
more obstetrician, outlined
commission recommendations
on physical and mental health
services.
These included expanded
regular health services fol-
children; expanded maternity
care, baby care and school
health services; more mental
health clinics and a new psy-
chiatric center for emotionally
disturbed children.
The group also favors a spe-
cial clinic to care for both

parents.
Commission recommended
tons in other areas include
organizing local youth COM
missions in every county: bet
ter trained personnel in Jobs
dealing with children, and spe-
cial juvenile officers or bureaus
in police departments and bet
ter detention facilities for
young offenders.
Great Problem Told
Bernard McDermott, master
Of Baltimore's Supreme Bench
Division for Juvenile Causes,
told the group that juvenile
detention is one Of the knotti-
est problems facing social
workers. \
by the time a child Is
placed in detention he has be-
come a statistic" Mr.. McDer-
mott declared at a session yes
terday.
When we reach the point
where We do not know what to
do with a youngster we detain
him." he added. I'VE can no
longer warehouse children,
How many times do we send
youngster to an institution
when We don't know what Ia
do with him, only to find out
the institution doesn't have any
idea of what it is supposed to
do to help the child?"
Among the recommendation
proposed by the detention COM
mittee was for the establish
ment Of three separate types OF
care for delinquents who have
reached the detention stage.
Mrs. Ralph Dulany Of Fruit
land, third vice president of the
commission, reported on State
wide recreational leadership.
She contended the Maryland
battle against juvenile delin-
quency is too overburdened
with athletic programs" These,
