VoudeviI|ion Freddy Clark to Take
Curtain Call on 5Oth Anniversary
By HARRY BACAS

Freddy Clark. a snow-thatched
little man who brought theater
acts on and of Washington
stages for a third of a century,
faced brightly into the spotlight
again this week.
In the days when he was mas
ter of the pit at Keith's and the
Earle, he was known as Mr.. C..
Frederick Clark, the eminent
band leader-t ragedian." His hair
was black then and universally
described as "leonine."
When vaudeville died. Freddy
Clark dropped from the theatre
cal scene.
But this month Freddy has an
anniversary coming up and some
of his old friends and admirers
persuaded him to return to the
theater for pictures.
June % is the 50th wedding
anniversary of Mr.. and Mrs.
Freddy Clark. Friends didn't
want the usual studio portrait,
but one Illuminated by the blaz-
ing carbon-arc spotlights that
shone for so many years on
Freddy's career.
Shares Spotlight With Wife
This time. however. Freddy
had TO share the podium with
Mrs. Clark. Even beside his
scant 5-feet-2. she looked small.
She is only 4 feet 9 inches high.
She is 70 and he is II.
1t was 1918 when the couple
came to Washington. They had
been married six years.
A veteran of theater pits in
Lynn. Mass. and Boston, Freddy
had been appointed musical di-
rector for the new Keith's The
alter here. Built a year before as
an early movie house, it was
taken over by B. F. Keith as a

Increase in Cases Told
Mr.. Mclaughlin pointed out

in 1888 the Juvenile Court heard
$500 cases. In l948. he added,
the number rose to 5000. In
1853 the court heard approx

District day. Chairman McMil-
Ian of the House District Com
mittee announced after the COM
mittee approved the legislation
in executive session today.
Under the measure. fathers
who desert their families here
and are located in another State
would be required to pay funds
for the support of their families
through the machinery Of that
States court. On the other hand,
fathers who desert their families
elsewhere and come to Washing
ton would have to pay here and
the funds would be sent to their
deserted families.
The reciprocal legislation was
sought here not only because
Washington has become a
"haven" for runaway fathers
from other Jurisdictions but also
because deserted families here
have been forced onto relief rolls
for lack of machinery to collect
from the fathers when they ar
rive in other States.

Police and Fire Bill
Faces Second Hurdle
House Group
Adds Retirement
Plan Amendment
BY DON S. WARREN

Legislation for liberalization of
retirement for Washington DO
lice and firemen today crossed
one hurdle in the House District
Committee. but faced another
when companion legislation was
scheduled for Senate action.
The House committee ap-
proved bill similar to the one
awaiting action early this after
noon by the Senate. but with
one last-minute difference.
Both bills provide for retire
ment of police and firemen after
20 years of Service but require a
minimum age of so. If the police
OF fireman serves beyond 20
years pension benefits 60 up ~
/ per cent as an incentive to
able-bodied men to stay in serv-
ice and also as an aid in recruit
ment.
Amendment Added
Both bills make the increased
benefits retroactive to last Oc-
tober l, in keeping with the
practice followed in retirement
bills for teachers and classified
employees. But the House COM
mittee added another amend
ment which also would make
retroactive to last October l the
increased deductions in the pay
Of police and flremen toward the
retirement fund.
Under the bills the deductions
are increased from 5 TO 6.5 per
cent.
House committee action was
taken in a closed meeting. An
nouncement of actions were
made by Representative McMil-
Ian, Democrat of South Caro-
lima, committee chairman. He
said there was no opposition to
the retirement bill but much
discussion"
Among other things, he said.
the question of applying the
prospective increased benefits
for policemen and firemen to
members of those forces already
retired was raised.
Held for Later Debate
Chairman Mcmillan said it
was decided to hold this over fol
later consideration by the Dis
trict subcommittee when it takes
up other pending legislation
providing for increased benefits
for widows and orphans of police
and flremen.
In the Senate the police-f fire
retirement bill was expected to
cause some discussion. Senator
Williams. Republican of Della
ware. was poised to ask a series
) of questions as to how much
difference there was between
the pending bill and the retire
ment systems already approved
for other classes of Government
workers.

Appointments
Hit in County
Conflict of Interest
Charged Against
3 New Members
BY CHARLES l.. HOFFMAN

Advocates of a separate Mont
gomery County planning agency
today renewed their fight against
the suburban Maryland planning
organization with attacks on the
county's appointments to the re-
organized Maryland National
Capital Park and Planning Com
mission.
Statements attacking some OF
the appointments were issued by
c. Darwin Stolzenbach. presi-
dent of the self-appointed Mont
gomery County Planning AS
ISOLATION, and the Executive
Committee of the Kensington-
Wheaton Democratic Club.
Both leveled charges of con-
flicts of interest" against three OF
the five appointments to the BIZ
county planning commission
made late Friday by the Mont
gomery County Council.
The Democratic groups state
ment issued by Richard P. Abel
said the group did not feel that
a liberal progressive point OF
view is represented by those
selected"
Real Estate Complexion"
Mr.. Stelzenbach asked where
is the New Deal in planning
that has been promised"
He said the Montgomery ap.
pointees have the all-too ia.
miliar political real estate com.
plexion that has colored thu

for years"
Those named from Montgom-
cry were j. Newton Brewer, in
vestment broker; w. Lawson
King. dairyman and big land
owner; Louis A. Gravelle, attor-
ney; Donald E. Gingery, Rock
vile builder, and David Scull
Silver Spring businessman and
property manager.
Mr.. Scull today deplored what
he scored as 'McCarthy-type
tactics used to smear anyone
in the real estate business"
He said that a conflict Of in
terestS could arise in many oc-
cupational classes and depend
upon the individual concerned
Mr.. Scull. Mr.. King and Mr.
Gingery said that they would
diSqualify themselves from voting
in any case where they felt their
own personal interests might be
in conflict with the larger COM
munity interests.
Individual Basis
Mr.. Scull said he felt such
had to be considered on an in.
dividual basis.
Mr.. King said he felt tn,
charges were mot justifiable.
He added that he did not thinl
that because a man owneC
something he could not judgl
fairly"
Mr.. Gingery described tn,
critics as local McCarthyites.
He said that he felt it wa!
deplorable that a group had beer
singled out as being unable Il
uphold a trust when it is given
them by a public body"
He added that If carried Il
the extreme. that persons wht

could not become a Judge oil
that a lawyer could never serve
