family groups. Many we're
returning for annual vacations.
Each summer season the
Dare Beaches also play host 10
new family groups. This year.
Judging from the demand for
cottages along the 20 or more
miles between Southern Shores
and Oregon Inlet. more families
than ever will be visiting the
area.
II is hard 10 pin-point exactly
why the area Is popular with
parents and children alike.
Some say II is because the
beaches are uncrowded. and
that the -drenched sands
along the shore are clean.
Others declare 1t is because
there are many things 70 do
that cost little or nothing. In
addition to the surf fishing.
there are nearby salt. brackish
and fresh sounds for those who
enjoy grabbing or boating and
swimming in calm waters.
The great dunes are always

MEMO TO BEARS:
PARK SIGNS ARE
NOT DIGESTIBLE

One Of the minor prob
lens confronting park
rangers in the Shenandoah
National Park involves
signs and bears.
During the winter and
early spring the bears get
hungry. With not much
food around, they turn TO
the parks signs. For some
reason. they view the red
wood signs as a piece de
resistance.
So each year, the park
stan has 10 replace bear
chewed signs. One ranger
suggested a solution: In
stead Of signs. do not feed
the bears" they should
read. do not eat the
signs"

I don't like all these signs un-
less / can be shown they are
all necessary. Recently, I
started to park and ! had to
get out and read the three
signs on the pole to find out
if 1 could leave my car there.
The three signs were not con-
flicting but 1t took time to read
them all and figure them out. "
Among the conflicting signs
|plaguing motorists are the spots
where the signs disagree with
instructions on the parking
meters. A typical one, spotted
in the 1900 block Of PennSyl-
vania avenue NV. features
signs specifying mo standing

and 40 minute parking all
other times" Beside these signs
is a parking meter which reads

uty in charge Of traffic. Walter

Walter Hoffman should have
accepted isolation as a valid
reason for refusing to enroll
Negro students in white classes.
AS a result of Judge Hoti-
mans refusal to accept isola-
ton and racial tension as as
slgnment criteria, the Norfolk
school board reluctantly agreed
to assign II Negro students to
six white junior and senior high
schools. The Board did not at
tempt, however. to overturn
Judge Hoffman on the racial
tension ruling.

particularly cited the south

Deputy Chief Agnew also
agreed that police ofiicials' rec

jority Of cases the restriction
Of parking to 90 feet from a
loading zone is excessive and
should be so feet.
More Parking Places
The LIST precinct cited a
number of places where more
curb parking could be provided
without restricting the orderly
flow of traffic. One such area,
on which Deputy Chief Agnew
agreed. was the south side Of

more than one store but II
most Of the stores in a block

removed. He also noted several
Recommendations where the
loading zone sign applied until
midnight, although no loading
was done after $50 pm.
The 9Th precinct put in a
number Of recommendations to
increase the speed limits on
upper Sixteenth street and
other highways on the north
ern edge of the city.
Several police captains cited
intersections where left turns
had been barred. causing traffic
jams at the next corner. Also
pointed out were conflicting
parking signs, obsolete one-way
signs, unnecessary traffic lights,
| illegible signs, confusing traffic
signals and intersections where
the lack of traffic lights has
caused accidents.

Orders to Police

The police survey is expected
to have considerable impact. It
was ordered by Chief Murray
on August II. The captains.
who have just turned in their
findings, were instructed to
make a complete survey Of all
traffic signs and signals, street
markers. public vehicle stands,
and anything else they thought
worth reporting.
Hardly a captain turned in
less than five or six single
spaced pages.
Every recommendation-and
there we're hundreds of specific
! locations cited-is being re-
viewed by Deputy Chief Agnew
to determine whether it is feas-
ible.

several years by Police Chief
Robert v. Murray and used IN
downtown Manhattan among
other places, were approved
here but never ordered. Mr..
Robertson says he was informed
there was no money in the
budget for them but that they
will be made now.
yelling Sparks Move
The new deal in prospect for
motorists springs from the d.
rect interest of Engineer Com
missioner Alvin c. yelling and
the transfer of all traffic engi-
neering last June from the old
Vehicles and Traffic Depart
ment to the Highway Depart
ment.
Gen. yelling, who recently
set up the Traffic Co-ordinat-
ing Committee and heads it
until Assistant Engineer Com
missioner Jesse Unger arrives
tomorrow, said the multiple
ity of traffice signs was one
of the items he had passed
on to Mr.. Robertson for ac-
ton.
He emphasized that he wants
uniformity of traffic signs
throughout the metropolitan
area. He said the tourist COM
ing into Washington is not
aware that he is crossing the
District line and gets confused
by the difference in signs.
Getting District traffic signs
to conform with neighboring
counties. he said, is a job for
the Metropolitan Area Traffic
Council.
The new Traffic Co-ordinat-
ing Committee will get the
police survey as well as the
study that Mr.. Robertson has
asked his traffic engineers tc
make.

his State needed more time TO
make a choice between integra-
ton or some other means Of
education.
For the first time Virginia Is
now at grips with this prob
lem" said Mr.. Harrison, point
ing out that some public schools
are now closed.
"The people Of Virginia now
realize either some schools in
Virginia win be integrated or
the people Of Virginia will have
to turn to some other means Of
education.
Some communities in Vir-
Qinia cannot now, or in the
foreseeable future. integrate

rison

His appeal was the strongest
admission to date on the part
Of a Virginia official that the
State is faced with a choice
between some Indignation or
private schools. Gov. Almond
at a recent press conference
came close to saying the same
thing when he commented that
ultimately Virginia might be
forced to turn to q private
school system.
"At no time has the State OF
Virginia been in defiance OF
any court Decree" insisted Mr.,
Harrison. He likened the
States position to a ship about
to embark on a voyage that
none of the passengers wanted
to take.

Warren, Norfolk Pleas
Mr.. Harrison directed his
comments simultaneously to
the pleas for delay in both Nor
folk and Warren County.
Warren County wound UP its
plea for a years delay with a
promise from Commonwealth
Attorney William j. Phillips
that the school board would re-
quest a tax increase to operate
integrated schools without State
aid for the l959-60 school year
Mr.. Phillips said the school
board had authorized him to
say that such a request would
be made of the Board of County
Supervisors. He gave no indi-
cation, however. that the super
visors would act favorably on
the request.

pellate court are Chief Judge

Displaying considerable aqua
tic skill, the junior members of
Twinbrook swimming pool held
swimming meet last Saturday
which drew an estimated 400
persons.
With the exception of one adult
class, which drew very few
adults. the entrants were from
seven to II years old, and not a
one floundered.
Those standing on the side of
the pool were tempted to enter
the races merely to escape the
scorching sun, but were deferred
by the 50-meter length of the
pool. Seems the adults haven't
the wind those youngsters have.
Charming tot marvels of the
day were seven-year-old twin
sisters. Judy and Laura Bitman.
who entered the girls under nine
25-meter races for free style and
backstroke and won them both
