that the University of Maryland

Instead, the university presi-

The official said, however, that
he believes emphasis should be
placed on academic standards.
DR.. Elkins, who inherited an
intensely football conscious uni
verSity from DR.. II. c. (Curley)
Byrd, said it was his policy "to
avoid completely a comparison
of the administration of one
president with that of any pre-
vious president"
Such a comparison was drawn
recently in an article in News.
week magazine. The article indi-
Gated that as football was grad

have risen.
DR.. Ellxins was answering what
he termed misleading slants in

Also involved, it was learned,
was a sports page story in the

of Maryland's declining football

At Arena Stage

The holiday attraction at Arena
Stage, Washington's unique thea
ter-in-theround, will be the pre-
miere repertory production Of
Agatha Christie's mystery play
"The Hollow" The exciting
"whodunit" begins a scheduled
four-week run on Tuesday.
Two other Agatha Christie
plays have had premieres at
Arena Stage - the first Ameri-
can production Of "The Mouse
trap was in 1855 and the first
production outside of New York
City of Witness for the Prose
cution' was in 1857. "The Hol.
low" was performed in London
in 1851, and Arena Stage obtained
special permission from Miss
Christie for this presentation.
In true Agatha Christie tradi-
ton, "The Hollow" offers sur.
prises and suspense.
Performances are given every
evening Except Monday at $3.50,
Sunday at 7:30 and Saturday mat

Eugene Stevens, vice president
of the Broome P-TA, declared:
"The board dilly-dallied last
year, if you'll excuse the Ian.
guage. and we got nothing"
Stevens was corrected by
Board Member Mrs. Rose c.
Kramer, who reminded him that
it was the County Council and
not the school board which aXed
the Carver conversion.
Carter listed these reasons for
preferring a new school:
. Development of Rockville is
to the south and west. Thus, chill
dren from the new construction
areas would have to walk long
distances or be carried by bus to
Carver.
. The "open area of South
Rockville" is more suitable for
a school site than "the industrial
and commercial area around
Carver"
. Parents and other residents
of the area are overwhelmingly
in favor of South Rockville
location.

Council Sets
Utility Law
Hearing Date

Public hearing on a revived
zoning amendment to regulate
construction of utility struc-
lures in Montgomery County
will be held January 19.
The date was set this week by
the County Council, which had
revived the controversial proposal
a week earlier.
The last Council, which
went out of office two weeks
ago, had killed the amend.
ment by a 3-3 tie vote. But
the issue was brought back
to life by new Councilman
David Cah0On, former Rock
vile city attorney, who said
he had received numerous
complaints about the last
Councils action.
Known as the "PEPCO" amend
ment, the legislation would re
quire power companies to make
formal application for permission
to erect towers in built-up resi-
Dental areas.
While the old Council debated
the issues during the fall, PEPCC
continued to erect towers acros;
the country in two corridors from
its new generating plant at Dick
erson, Md.
The public hearing will get un
der way at 8 pm. on January
10 in the hearing room of the
county office building.

Illegal Sewer Use
Warning is Issued

The Washington Suburban
Sanitary Commission this
week appealed to its half-mil-
lion customers to cooperate
in a continuing campaign to
stop a practice which the
agency said costs it and the
public hundreds of thousands
of dollars annually.
The bi-county utility said the
use of sanitary sewers to drain
surface water is becoming in
creasingly serious.
In addition to the needless
waste of public funds, the prac-
tice creates a health hazard by
forcing the surcharged sewer to
back up into nearby homes, the
agency emphasized.
To date, the Commissions
plumbing inspectors have I'M
covered 1854 Illegal sewer
taps, of which 625 have been
corrected. One tap can carry
as much as 5000 gallons of
water daily at peak flow, the
utility said; others divert um-
dergrOlInd sire am which
flow constantly.
The most common violation
was described as the basement
or areaway drain tap. This in
wolves breaking a hole in the side
of the drainpipe under the base.
ment or areaway floor to allow
water to flow into the sanitary
sewer.
Another violation consists of
removing one or more bricks
from the areaway sidewall, thus
permitting water from the yard
or from under the basement to
enter the drain.
The Commission pointed
out that these violation are
committed after all plumbing
installation have been
checked and approved by its
inspectors.
Storm drainage systems, where
provided, are designed to take
care of rain and surface water
the Commission explained. They
are entirely separate from the
sanitary sewer system, which is
designed to accommodate onl y
household waste.
Under a 1854 agreement, virtu.
ally all sewage from the Sanitary
District in suburban Montgomery
and Prince Georges Counties goes
to the District of Columbia treat
ment plant at Blue Plains.
'When surface and under
ground water is illegally diverted
into sanitary sewers, it increases
the sewage treatment bill out OF
all proportion to the actual
amount of sewage going through
our lines" the Commission de
clared.

School, they're gong to make
1t Is clear that time, the
alleged healer of all things,
has failed to narrow the
breach between opposing
views on this controversial
issue.
Carver is now the only remain
ing all-Negro secondary school
in the county. II is planned for
deSegregation within the next
few years and no one, openly in
any event, is obiecting to that
goal.
But many-in particular, West
Rockville white parents are
obiecting strongly to the sugges-
ton that they might have to send
their children to an Z integrated
Carver School.
Their position has nothing to
do with the integration question,
they say. It's just that they think
new school would serve the
areas needs better.
They contend, therefore, that
Carver should be put to so m e
non.classroom use.
The hitch arises over the fact
that it would cost some 81 million
less, according to staff estimates,
to convert Carver to an inte-
grated junior high, than it would
to build the all-new school asked
by the parents.
Henry Carter, president of the
West Rockville Elementary
School P-TA, is spokesman for
those who want a new school. lie
told the board last week:
1--WE are now and always
have been i'm favor of the
boards progress toward inte-
grafton. We deeply resent
the coupling of this issue
with the location of West
Rockville Junior High
School,"
Last year, the board voted in
favor of converting Carver to an
integrated junior high. But the
money with which to do this was
denied by the County Council in
face of the parents vehement
protest.
AS a result, School Superinten-
dent c. Taylor Whittier this year
has suggested making Carver
into a branch junior college and
building a new junior high.
His P.TA and area parents in
general are wholeheartedly in
favor of building new school
in the open area of South Rock
Vile, Carter said last week.
But some other groups, notably
the education committee of the
Allied Civic Group, don't see the
wisdom Of that.
Louis Levin, committee chair
man, reaffirmed his groups posi-
ton Of last year, favoring the use
of Carver as an integrateo
school. He told the board:
1--WE believe that the re-
turn to the plan of construct
ing an entirely new school In
this area represents a capitu-
latiOn TO the County Council
which is neither necessary,
reasonable nor logical"
