.FBI and Police
Still Seek Car in
Kidnapping Report

The FBI and Maryland po-
lice last night we're trying TO
determine whether yesterdays
reported kidnapping OF a wom-
an in Langley Park. Md. was
the real thing or an erroneous
report.
A dozen Maryland State and
Prince Georges County police
cars continued to search for
the car described by the only
witness to the so-called kid
naping. However. the investi-
cation was stymied by lack Of
a victim. No report has been
received by any agency that a
woman is missing within the
scope of the circumstances.
Fred r. Burger. 10. OF 1925
Chauncey street. Mt. Rainier,
Md. launched the turmoil
when he reported seeing two
men flee In a white
car after forcing a woman 10
get into their car. Such a car
was seen late yesterday In a
gravel-pit area near Laurel but
police searched the area with
out success.
Mr. Burger. a mechanic at
the Glsscock service station,
7l2l Carroll avenue, Takoma
Park, said the woman screamed
and struggled as one Of the
men forced her into the car
at a bus stop at New Hamp-
shire avenue and Quebec
street.

10 break up a relatively happy
working relationship among
board members. started when
some board members expressed
the hope the new Superintend-
ent-as yet selected-should be
able to choose those who would
be close to him in operating
the school system.
Boards Power Limited
DR.. Corning baked at this.
He said the board was trying
TO tie his hands" before he
leaves Office March !.
The School Board lacks the
power to appoint an individual
below the rank Of superintend-
ent. II can only accept or
reject the recommendation Of
the superintendent.
However. the board does have
the power to appoint a super
intendent.
One suggested solution in the
current struggle would be for
the board to wait until DR..
Corning leaves. then appoint
an acting superintendent from
within the system who would
serve until a permanent SUPER
intendent is found.
Three Deputy Posts
DR. Corning's adamant atti-
tude over the appointment Of
DR.. Blair is also known to have
ruined the feelings OF those
associated with the school sys-
TEN for years.
II is apparently his position
that the system lacks an in.
dividual who can step into the
job. as least the one vacated
by Mr.. Nelson.
Also moving into the picture
is the view held by some menu
berS that the system is top
heavy in deputy superintend-
ents. There are three such dep
uty superintendent.
Meanwhile. board members
and school officials have re-
ported the system to be operat-
