List of 'Isms'

1t is not too difficult to imagine the trepida-
ton with which the county school system under
took study of various educational media to de-
termne which ones should be used in program
of teaching children about democracy and the
various 'isms" that have tried to compete with
it-Nazsm, fascism, totalitaranism, communism
and the like.
And it is equally easy to understand the
qualms that various individuals connected with
the actual selection of the resource materials and
the approving of same, must have had when the
whole thing became fait accompn and there
was nothing to do but sit back and await public
reaction.
So far, we're delighted to see, there hasn't
been any. And there shouldn't be. This was
simply routine administrative act. The school
system is charged with educating our children
and that includes telling them how Hitler, Mus
solni, Khrushchev, ct al, rose to power and by
what methods they maintain their police states
as well as telling them how to add two and two.
We've come long way since the days when
the late Sen. Joseph r. Mccarthy was riding
high. Happy day!

Successful Year

The 1857 Summer Playground
Season was a very successful
one! During the busy nine week
program 1889 children enrolled
and participated at 50 centers.
The youngsters enjoyed many
happy hours having fun and at
tie same time learning new
sk.lls. We feel that much of the
success resulted from the Gntir.
ing efforts of our enthusiastic
leaders, specialists and supervi-
Sors.
Throughout the season, how
ever, our staff unanimously eX-
pressed the belief that they were
better able to offer a varied pro-
gram of activities due to the fine
community support and assist
ance they received from local cit
liens.
We, of the recreation depart
ment, and especially James N.
DeMoss, Recreation Center Di-
rec at the North Four Corners
Recreation Center, wish to ex-
press our sincere appreciation
to you for the assistance which
you gave in making the Last
Day Party and Watermelon
Feast" at the North Four Cor
ners Recreation Center on Au-
gust %, 1857, the success that
it was. 1t is estimated that over
260 slices of watermelon were
served and that there were over
200 youngsters involved in add.
ton to the Northwood Football
Team.
1t is our hope that you and
many other volunteers will find
it possible to be with us again
during the 1858 Playground
Season.

Judge Cole

The State has lost one of its most outstanding
public servants with the passing of Judge William
p Cole. An outstanding jurist with distinguished
record of achievement in the field of law, Judge
Cole was better known, perhaps, for his 26 years
of unselfish devotion to the University of Mary
land. He was chairman of the Board of Regents,
which sets policy for the University, at a time
when dynamic, colorful Curley Byrd was its pres
ident. Yet Judge Cole never became a rubber
stamp and saw to it that the Regents held the
universitys reins, firmly but quietly. He climbed
to the top in both law and public education, some
thing few men have achieved.

Architect Plan

The opposition from archi-
tects to a county-employed
school architect seems to us to
be a stand based on selfish rea-
soning. Are we to believe that
only their esthetic values would
be compromised or that they
would prefer to keep their
house on a closed-shop basis?
1t will be up to the School
Board to decide. l believe that
any plan that would save the
county money and at the same
time provide up-to-date facili.
ties for our growing school pop.
ulation merits close scrutiny by
the School Board.

like the Aurignacians, of the race of cave-men
but like North Americas Iroquois possessed high
intelligence, feared no and were respected by

has never been completely authenticated. They

rows were made from the bone and horn of the

Along the Potomac

Among the bills passed by the Senate near
the end of the first Session was Senator Bealps
measure providing for the establishment of the
c & Canal National Historical Park. 1t, and a
companion bill of NINE will be considered by the
House Interior and Insular Affairs Committee af-
ter the first of the year. Residents of the 9th
Maryland District will have ample opportunity to
present their views the proposed legislation
at public hearings.
1t is important to bear in mind the things
these bills do not do, as well as what they do.
First of all, the establishment of & o Canal
National Historical Park does not give the Federal
Government any more police power than it now
has in the ownership of the Canal and its admin
istration national capital park Enactment
of the Canal bill will not change the right to cross
the Canal to the Potomac River 1t continues
present law which directs the Secretary of the
Interior to grant easements and rightsofway for
agricultural, industrial and other purposes.
There is no provision for any superhighway
or parkway along the Canal between Great Falls
and Cumberland The only provision in the bill
concerning parkway simply authorizes 25-mile
scenic route from Highway 81 in the vicinity of
Paw Paw, W. Virginia, to a point near Woodmont
Maryland
What the bill does is to transfer the c G. o
Canal property now held by the Federal Govern
ment as local park to national park status. 1t
also authorizes trading canal property in the Cum
berland area for other lands of value to the park
thus releasing some canal lands near Cumberland
for highway and business uses It provides for
the acquisition of additional lands for the park
but specifies that the total area, including land
now owned by the Federal Government, is not
to exceed $4,000 acres.
The most important benefits to be derived
from the change from a national capital park to
fun park status are administrative

History Lesson

AT the risk of being torn limb from limb we
are going to suggest that the current and very
energetic campaign drive to raise 81 million dol
lars to restore the 160year-old frigate Consella-
ton is not necessarily the most important project
undertaken. since Lord Calvert set out from Eng
land with his hardy little band Of pioneers on the
Ark and the Dove in 1884.
The State Department of Education and, ap-
parently, every county board of education, incud-
ing our own Montgomery, is going after that 81
million with grim determination. Every class
room has its Contribution container" In addi-
ton, classic" cartoon book picturing the major
events in the long service of the frgate has been
made available, or will be, to every student Each
teacher in the State has been supplied with a
special study plan which, the hackers point out,
"correlates the heroic story of the Constellation
with the history of the U. S. Navy from the time
the vessel was launched in Baltimore in 1891" Or
CARNATIONS such as the American Legion, the
Maryland Federation of Women's Clubs, the Vet
Grams of Foreign Wars and many other civic, serv-
ice and patriotic organizations are joining in the
drive. More than 10000 campaign kits have been
distributed to Legion members alone Everybody
from Fleet Admiral William D. Leahy on down to
Gov. Theodore R. McKeldin has enthusiastically
Endorsed the drive. Marylanders, it is hoped, will
kick in 81 million and the other 81 million will be
raised nationally to restore the ancient hulk that
now is barely afloat with its rotten timberS
No doubt the fund drive will succeed admir-
ably and the Constellation will be berthed in per-
petuity at Fort McHenry in all her former glory
for the tourists to come and see in Baltimore.
As for us, we just can't-try as we mgiht-get
all worked up and mistyeyed over the Constella
ton (You know that old ship that you have formed
the mental image of with the iron cannonballs
hitting the side but dropping off harmlessly?
Well this isn't that ship; that was the Constitu
ton. This is the Constellation)
In fact, If you were to walk down the street
and ask 100 citizens this question: what is the
Constellation" what kind of answers do you think
you'd get? Usually, before such high pressure
campaign drive is launched, certain amount of
public enthusiasm is assured We're not at all
sure that's the case here.

years of study at the Univer-
sitys Law School in 1912 and

nation in the same year.
Judge Cole practiced law in
ToWson from 1912 until his cleo
ton to the Congress of the Unit
ed States, for the term 1927-1929.
He subsequently served as con-
gresham from 1941 to 1912.

of the University of Maryland
and assumed the Craftsmanship
of this body in 1914. He served
as chairman until last June. He
has also served as a member of
the Board of Regents of the
Smithsonian Institute.
The William p. Cole, Jr., Stu
dent Activities Building, on the
university's College Park cam
pus, was dedicated and named in
his honor this past year.
He saw service in World War
l, as Captain of the 316th In
fantry, 18th Division. His son,
William P. Cole, III, left the uni

major contribution to the war
effort through the policies it es-
tablished in the industry prior to
the outbreak of hostilities.

ment to the Customs Court, de-
votes a paragraph of the spe-

mer chairman of the committee
for his leadership and efforts
which made possible the ex-
IRENE success of the committee.
Judge Cole is a member of
the Episcopal Church, Phi Kap-
pa Sigma Fraternity and a Dem
ocrat.
University President Wilson
II. Elkins issued the following
statement: 1.-THE death of Judge
Cole is a great loss to the Uni
versity of Maryland. AS a MEM
Der of the Board of Regents and
State Board of Agriculture for
26 years and its chairman for
II years, he was more closely
associated with University at
fairs than any other person in
public life. His interests and
activities were extraordinary.
He gave literally of his time and
talents in establishing policies,
providing guidance, and encour-
aging every worth while activ-
ity.
Il think that it is fair to say
that Judge Cole contributed
more to the welfare of the Uni
versity than any other person.
His life is an inspiration to all
of us who are working for the
advancement of a great educa-
tional institution"
