Schools in Foirfux
Urged to Switch to
Junior High System

Revision of Fairfax County's
school system to provide for
Junior high schools was urged
in a talk last night to the
County Federation of PTAs.
Franklin P. Huddle told fed
Grafton members that a study
committee will present strongly
worded recommendations in
favor Of recognizing the schools
Of Fairfax County into a 6-3-3
(junior high school) system.
Mr.. Huddle is a member Of a
group appointed by the county
school board to study school
reorganization.
Mr.. Huddle called the county's
present system Of seven elemen-
tary and five secondary grades
a rural compromise over the
eight-four system now consid-
cred outmoded in most Of the
country's urban and suburban
communities. He pointed out
that rs per cent Of the Nations
school systems. including Ar
lington and Alexandria. have
switched to the three divisional
system.
He said the transition would
be less difficult now in a rapidly
expanding school system than
after student increases level of 4.
The county now must build
almost one classroom per day
until 1860 to meet a yearly en-
iollment increase Of about $500.

The council criticized the

w. Hill, Richmond NAACP at.
Itorney. told Federal Judge Ster.
ling Hutchinson the State was
trying to use the laws to intimi-
date Negroes and others. and
thereby discourage them from
pressing for indignation.
The charges were made at the
opening of a hearing on an
NAACP motion to prevent two
State investigating committees
from obtaining the organization's
membership and contributions
lists.
A State court has issued a
subpoena directing the NAACP
to show its membership rolls to
the Committee on Offenses
Against The Administration of
Justice headed by Delegate John
B. Boatwright. The NAACP also
has been asked to turn over its
membership list to the Commit
tee on Law Reform and Racial
Activities, headed by Delegate
James NJ. Thomson. Of Alexan-
|dria.
Both committees were set up
after the special session OF the
General Assembly last Septem-
Der when a series Of so-cal!ed
anti-NAACP bills were enacted.
Principal Issue
The membership lists are an
issue in suits already filed in
Federal Court by the NAACP
against most Of the laws.
Mr.. Carter emphasized his
group was seeking only a tempo
rary restraining order to pro-
tect the membership lists until
the States right to see them is
settled in the other pending law
suit.
He argued that lack of the
membership names would not
prevent the two committees from
going ahead with their investi-
cation.
There is no secret about the
purpose of the General Assembly
session at which these commit
tees were set up" said Mr.. Car
ter. THE special session was
aimed specifically at avoiding
the Supreme Courts decree. We
take the view the Court cannot
be blind to what everyone else
knows"

Finders Tell
How Indiun
Got 2'Heuds

FREDERICK, Feb. ~ Dr.
Two men who spent last summer
digging through the remains of
an Indian village near Frederick
think they have solved the riddle
OF the Indian with the two heads.
Nicholas Yinger and Ralph
Fout. both of Frederick. uncov-
cred a skeleton Of what appeared
to be a two-headed Indian dur
ing excavations on the banks Of
the Conococheague Greek near
Williamsport, Nd. where the
creek enters the Potomac River.
Here is Mr.. fingers explana-
ton:
when the Indian died OF old
age at SO. all the priceless things
he possessed, including weapons,
were carefully placed in the grave
with the body. This extra skull,
We feel reasonably sure. was the
head of another chief this war
rior had slain in battle with an
other tribe. When the warrior
went to his happy hunting
ground. his priced skull was
placed beside his own. perhaps
with the scalp still intact.
"All bones are as the Indians
placed them. The interesting
thing about the skull besides
that it was attached to the body,
is that it is short-headed !.
whereas the other skull is long
headed"
Mr.. Yinger points out another
characteristic which he thinks
lends strength to his theories
about the two-headed skeleton.
The Potomac Indians. he says,
always faced the skulls Of their
dead in the direction from
which they had come. as IL look
ing toward their former home.
When the two-headed skeleton
was uncovered. one skull faced
southwark, the other northward,
indicating, according to Yinger,
that the two warriors were
natives OF tribes from opposite

The mass of information
needed to determine whether
Belmont Bay is a good airport
site for Washington was trickline
into the Civil Aeronautics Ad-
ministration today.
BY its pace, there was every
indication that a CAA official de-
Icision on the site would not be
ready Friday.
The location. at the confluence
or Occoquan Creek and the Po-
tomac in Prince William County
has been proposed by Represent
alive Broyhill, Republican of vir-
ginia.
The location. generally, has
been rejected once by the CAA.
In report Of December, 1866.
the CAA told a Senate Com
merce Committee in substance
that the distance and travel
time between sites in Prince
William County was "subStan-
tally in excess of the maximum
acceptable" travel time set up
in specifications. The report
also said that all possible sites
in Prince William and Loudoun
Counties we're eliminated for the
time and distance reasons.
Many Moves Involved
The request to CAA to study
the Belmont Bay proposal neces-
STATED these moves:
/. Assembling all available
maps of the area.
2. Obtaining aerial photos of
the area.
3. Obtaining from the Depart
ment of Agriculture and from
the Corps of Engineers reports

4. Putting the air traffic con-
troll problems up to the experts.
5. Learning from the Army the
problems and estimated costs of
relocating a radio facility now
on the site.
6. Obtaining information from
the Army engineers on the gen.
eral subject Of hydraulic filling
required at the location.

Mr.. Hill said the sole purpose
OF the committees attempt to OBJ
