protested TO the Maryland
National Capital Park and
Planning Commission about
the right-of-way route.
The congress represents lC
citizens associations in the
Cabin John Valley.
"Betraying Public Trust"
I'VE feel" the congress wrote
in a letter to the planners. "the
commission is betraying a pub
lie trust in allowing the line to
divide and deface the Cabin
John Valley regional park
which the commission proposed
as part of the focal center Of
the valley"
Last year the commission
approved a master plan for
development of the Cabin John
Valley watershed, the only re-
naming sparsely settled region
IN Montgomery County's subur-
ban area.
The land use regulations, APP
parently adopted without con-
sideration of PEPCO's right
of-way acquisitions, was hailed
then as a forward step toward
the commissions desire to plar
an area in advance Of develop
ment.
The PEPCO line is one OF
two. planned to carry high volt
age electricity from the utility's
power generating plant under
construction at Dickerson, Md,
to the suburban area.
The other line takes a north
erly route from the plant
through the Beallsville area 10
Burtonsville where it connects
with other high-power trans
mission lines.

Groups fighting the Cabir
John route contend the line
should either be placed under
ground or rerouted through
areas that win remain sparse.

Stanley r. Green, president

possibility Of putting the line

PEPCO plans to run tie linz

where 1t enters developed area

Opponents of the right-of-
way plan believe the line
should go underground at Falls
road. thus eliminating trans
mission towers for q 3.7-milC

checked thoroughly for clues
leading to the bandits identity.
Quick Thinking
Quick thinking on Mr.. Sell
ner's part helped police start
searching for the bandit with
out loss Of time.
Mr.. Sellner. who said he was
"a little shook up" by the ex-
perience, nevertheless had the
presence Of mind to thrust his
arm between the vault door
and the wall to prevent its
complete closing. 1t took the
combined strength Of Mr..
Sellner. the woman teller and
the customer to keep the door
from crushing his arm.
The bandit had either fol-
lowed Mr.. Sellner from his
home Monday or yesterday or
had q lucky break. Mrs. Sell
ner said her husband custom
arily goes to work UP Hender-
son road to Branch avenue but
for this week only has been
going down Henderson road to
Temple Hills road to pick up
a bank teller. Mrs. Joan Vaw-
ter of Wagman Heights.
At 8:45 am. while the ban
dit held his revolver pointed at
Mr.. Sellner, the bank manager
called Mrs. Vawter and said he
would be late picking her up.
He had gotten the bandits per-
mission to make the call.
Fifteen minutes later. after
the robber had made his get
away and police had been
alerted, Mr.. Sellner called Mrs.
Vawter again to say he had
been robbed and would not call
for her.
Others Present
In addition to Mr.. Sellner,
those present during the bank
robbery were Mrs. Irene Kosco,
a teller, who lives at 5759
Second street. Temple Hills.
Nd, and a customer, Jerry
Charles Stolz of 6501 Walnut
street Sc, Temple Hills.
Mr.. Stolz said he was waiting
outside the bank for it to open
when Mr.. Sellner arrived with
the limping man. The bandit
told Mr.. Sellner to let Mr.. Stolz
in the bank. apparently because
he did not want anybody
hanging around outside.
Mrs. Kosco said when she ar
rived, she started to unlock the
door with her key but found
1t already open. When she
went inside. she said. she saw
Mr.. Stolz at the check writing
counter and com m ented

Then, she said, she saw the
bandit and started to speak
to him as she started toward

Der apparently thought she was
heading for a telephone.
