Dog Law
Is Voted

An amended version of a
new set of dog regulations for
the City of Rockville was
passed unanimously Tuesday
by the Mayor and Council.
The new regulations, effective
at once, make it unlawful for any

dogs must pay a SIS cost for inn
pounding fees plus $1.50 per day

Members of the board shall elect
their own chairman.
All dogs in the city must be
licensed at a cost of 81 for each
male and spayed female and So

Lee Hits
COP On
Platform

Blair Lee III, chairman of
the Montgomery County
Legislative Delegation to the
General Assembly and a cam
didate for reelection, accused
the Republicans this week of
resorting to classic political
double talk" in their platform.
On the one hand, Lee told the
Bethesda Chamber of Commerce
Monday night, the COP platform
states that the COP candidates
favor a more substantial contri-
button by the State to the sup
port of our public school sys-
tenn"
On the other hand, he
pointed out, the Republicans
say the voters are weary of
the continually increasing
State taxes enacted by the
Democrat controlled Legis-
lature.
1T may come as a surprise to
the COP platform that there is a
painfully close relationship be-
tween the two subjects" Lee
declared.
THE task of the County Coun-
ell and the Legislature" he con-
tinued, lis to provide funds to
support the kind of school sys.
tenn that the people of our county
want. This task we have under
taken with vigor during the last
four years.
81 call attention to these
relationships, because they
seem to be hopeIessly
scrambled in the Republican
platform, which at several
points wades into School
" Rcs-d territory.
The final element of confusion
is the Republican State platform,
which fatty opposes any further
extension of State aid to county
school systems position dia-
metrically opposed to the county
COPS platform.
The murky picture that
energies from the two Repub-
lican platforms, intentionally or
otherwise, gives one the impress
sion of a cynical and insincere
effort to garner votes in total
disregard of the importance or
proper financing of our public
schools"

Teen Center
Plans Given
To Council
BY Steed Evans
staff Reporter

Tentative plans for a teen
age center for the City of
Rockville were revealed Tues
day night at the regular meet
ing of the Mayor and Council.
Burt Kurland, recreation direc-
tor for the city, submitted a re-
port to the city that called for
a building so feet by 70 feet of
cement block or similar material
on a split-level floor plan.
The building has been pro-
posed for the Ellwood Smith
Park on Mercer Road in the
Southwestern portion of the
city. II would be located ON
a tract large enough TO pro-
vide 80 parking spaces.
1t also would contain a modi.
fled kitchen where snacks could
be prepared, a 20-foot by 50.foot
area for office space, storage area
and a lounge, and so by so foot
area for dancing, ping pong, etc
Kurland told the Mayor and
Council that the program at the
center would largely be formed
by teenagers who also would have
strong voice in the center's by.

center.

to juveniles literature that would
tend to incite passion" in young
readers.
He characterized such
literature as that which
would cause persons below
Ii years of age to commit
violent or depraved or inn
moral acts.
He added that county police
were constantly on the alert"
for display of suspected material
and as a result, fewer lurid titles
and stories are on the newsstands
in the county than were display
ed before 1855.
A Sentinel reporter discovered
magazines bearing cover legends
like "12 Years Old and a Bride
(. Il Wasn't Ready for Married
Live" why College Girls Are
Best at Sex" what Do You Get
Out of Staying Virgin?"
At least one drugstore owner,

He goes through each new ship

In County

Montgomery County fami-

600 a year are more than dou-
BILE those of any other Mary

City of Baltimore. Nearly IS
percent of all households here
earn more than the $4,000
figure.
Prince Georges County is Sec
ond with 11.S percent of all

Information on the size of
Montgomery's salaries was re-
ported this week by the Maryland

Commission defines household
income" as the lump sum earned
by all persons occupying a house,
apartment, groups OF rooms, or
room regarded as a dwelling

While showing that Montgom-

Commission shows also that the
county contains the lowest per
centage of households in the
State in the so-called low income
bracket.
approximately 8.5 percent of
all households here earn $2499.
The figure for Prince Georges
County is 90 percent.
Between the low and high in.
come households in Montgomery,
the Commission has estimated
the average income of all house.
holds is roughly $93S1 Montgom-
ery's average, highest in the
State, exceeds that of Prince
Georges County by nearly $1,000.
In the Planning Commission S
analyses of the earning powers
of Montgomery Countlans, 1t has
been estimated 32.5 percent of
all households earn bstWeeE
$4,000 and $6999 per year; 1873
percent are in the $1,000 to $9999
class, and only 8.S percent earn
