In Up-COunty
2 Area Men
Seek Okay
For Airport

Two area men, both Civil Air
Patrol officers, propose to de-
velop family airport" in upper
Montgomery County for hobby
filters.
Walter M. Startling, 30, of West
Hyattsville, and Charles E. Wind
sor, 35, of 1923 Battery Lane, Be-
thesda, have an option to pur-
chase for $4,000 160 acre site
on the Reddick farm on Reddick
Road between Seneca and Pooles-
vile.
The proposed project will be
given a public hearing Nov. II at
2 p. m. before the County Coun-
Gil. The promoters will seek an
okay for an airport in the upper
Montgomery planning district on
land now Zoned as residential
agricultural. At present, airports
are only allowed in upper Mont
gomery county on land zoned as
commercial, also on a special ex-
ception basis.
The CAP officers propose to
provide hangers, maintenance ia
cilities, a small restaurant, an
area for children to fly model
planes and play area for young
sters whose fathers are weekend
pilots and airplane mechanics.
The proposed family airport"
will be operated as a family
enterprise too. Mrs. Startling will
serve as secretary, Mrs. Windsor
as treasurer and Mrs. Josephine
Mayo, Mrs. Starling's mother,
viii operate the restaurant bust
ness.
Both men term Montgomery
County's airport facilities as
very inadequate" and declare
the situation will be aggravated
by the scheduled closing down
of Congressional Airport.
Capt. Startling, who became a
student flier in 1915, is squadron
commander of the northeastern
squadron, National Capital Wing,
Civil Air Patrol. He is working
for his commercial license to be-
come weekend flight instructor
Second 1t. Windsor, a veteran of
Navy and Air Force service, is
commandant of the CAP cadet
squadron. Both have been in CAP
for three years.

Bumper to Bumper Parking
To Be Outlawed by County

Tacit approval of a new law
that would make it illegal for
motorists to park bumper to
bumper against other cars at the
curb or on lots was registered
by the County Council this week.
The Council referred the pro-
posed law to the county attor-
ney's office for final refinement
but its passage is expected at the
next meeting, October %.
The law would provide fines as
high as $50 for motorists who
make it impossible for other driv.
ers either to enter or exit from
a parking space.

1t also would give county po-
lice authority to move and i'm
pound a car. 1t was agreed, how
ever, that most cases would merit
only traffic violation notices.
Police Superintendent James S.
McAuliffe said he thought the
new law would be beneficial.
Heretofore, police did not have
the right to move vehicles under
such circumstances.
Asked how police could tell
which cars do the blocking-in, Nc
Auliffe said, you don't always
make arrests on the information
from officers but from citizens

jury that threatened his career
two years ago. He and his
charming partner Of many years,
are waltzing again in the 18th
annual Ice Capades. which opens
January 81 at Uline Arena. The
show will run through Febru-
airy IL.
The Old Smoothies. as they
are called, have no contract with
John Harris. producer of the Ice
Capades. They never had one.
Harris has told them they are
part of the show for as long as
they desire and Markhus says,
God willing. they'll be around
for years to come.
Two years ago Markhus' knees
buckled and he fell. Many pre-
dicted that that meant the end
of his skating career. He never
missed a show. Irma held him
up and they went through their
popular numbers as always.

BOWLING
WITH ROD THOMAS

/ A Baltimore bowling author
ity told this reporter: THE
thing won't work."
At this stage, it surely ap-
pears solid, and from this COR
ner it looks to be the most
potent venture in years for the
good Of duckpins here as
sport and for the business men
Of the game as a promotion,
even though the leagues ac-
tivities will be confined to COL
lege Park.
For Baltimore's many stars,
it is expected to open the gate
to the National Match Game
Championship, now denied
them because their town is not
affiliated with the Bowling
Proprietors Association Of
America.
Red faces were prevalent at
the King Pin after Thursday
nights rolling in the National
Capital League. With a particu-
lar glow was that of Mike
Troiano, sponsor Of Michael's
Hardware. Four times last sea-
son, Mike came close to shoot
ing his first 400. Week before
last he got within pin Of it
and on this occasion his score
counted in the BVL tournament.
Thursday he was approached
to enter again. "Shucks," hA
said. "Ill stand on my last
score"
Then he proceeded to shoot
438, including a game of 1913,
either or both of which might
have been lucrative in the BVL.
Mike had lots of unhappy
company. Among those who did
not post the modest BVL entry
fee were Milo Quail, who shot
412: Gerry Stair, 410; Sam Ehr-
Itch. 405; Bill Lewis. 4l9; Clete
Pannell, 400 with a 172 game:
Jack Barley. AIS and last. but
far from least. Nick Campanella.
the leagues president who ordi-
narily is quick to support not
only the BVL but any other
worthy cause.
But on this occasion Nick
wasn't thinking Of the BVL. or
anything else, except how his
injured leg would hold up. 1t was
his first outing since he hurt the
limb some weeks ago. 1t stood
up, to the tune of 169-400.
