and charge higher taxes.
The courthouse yard is usually
Uttered with old paper, pop bot
ties, and anything else the public
takes notion to discard, and con-
tinues this way for monthss mean
ing nothing at all to the numer-
ous overpaid county employees who
sit within.

are presented along with other items to
explain how those few pieces were used
and who used them.
This storytelling effect is enhanced by
a tasteful blending of silk-screen lettering,
multi-colored backgrounds and special

Don't expect to find all of the museums
changed completely. The revitalizing pro-

expected that it will take another 10 years
to complete.
The most striking change is in the

in Alexandria today after a
one-day stay at home.
Gerald, one of IA Negro stu
dents who have sued for adj
mission to white Alexandria
schools, was refused admission
to the Negro school yesterday
because his parents refused to
sign a pupil placement appli-
cation.
School Supt. T. c. Williams
said Gerald's mother signed the
placement application under
protest today and the boy was
admitted. Mr.. Williams ex-
planned that under Virginia
law local school officials have
no authority to enroll a student
without a placement applica-
ton. Federal courts have held
in other Virginia localities that
Negroes cannot be compelled
to sign placement forms, but
no such legal action has been
brought in Alexandria.

schools open.
The federation has not taken

Similar Threat Recalled
Mr.. Mann recalled in his
letter that when a similar
threat occurred several years
ago, the Arlington County
Board joined with the Airing
ton delegation TO the General
Assembly in registering a pro-
test with the Virginia Water
Control Board, which was sue
cesSful.
''This is q far greater threat
by an agency Of the Federal
Government to the welfare Of
our people, and will call for
strenuous action in their be-
half" Mr.. Mann said.
CAA plans to build a sewage
disposal plant which would
dump its effluent into Dificult
Run, which empties into the
Potomac River above the Dis
trict's water supply.
In his letter to Mr.. Weeks,
the Arlington delegate noted
that great efforts have been
made in the past few years
for a clean river. The present
CAA proposal would do irrep-
arabic damage to this splen-
did program"
Remark Challenged
Mr.. Mann acknowledged
that engineers would contend
that effluent from the plant
would be pure.
II submit on the basis of
uniform past experience that
this is true only in theory, and
not in fact" said Mr.. Mann.
Mr.. Mann pointed out in his
letter that alternative plans for
disposing Of Chantilly Airport
sewage had been suggested by
the Fairfax Board of County
Supervisors. He added:
Certainly an agency of the
