An ll-year-old boy, charged
with helping to start one of the
three fires that broke out at the
Stevens School earlier this year
was sent to District General
Hospital for mental observation
today.
Acting Juvenile Court Judge
Austin L. Fickling postponed a
Jury trial on an arson charge

The boys are accused of set
ting seven separate fires on
January 8 on the second and
third floors of the school at

Warren c. Kelley.
A 13-year-old youth, who ad-
mitted setting $500 fire in
the school on January 10, is on

More Rain
Forecast for
Next Days

The areas long bout with
tropical weather, featuring al
most daily thundershowers, is
not about to be over. At least
t four more days of it we're pre-
dicted today by a sympathetic
but helpless Weather Bureau.
AS though to emphasize the
predicament, a pre-dawn thun-
derShower brought another .48
inch of rain today, while a
wind kicked up 35-mile-an-
hour gusts and lightning
cracked through the black
sky.
At least it was a departure
from the usual evening storms
which have occurred almost
every day since July 6. pouring
a total of 5.68 official inches
of rain, and a great deal more
in some sections.
The Weather Bureau blames
a stubborn Bermuda high" for
the unusually long stretch Of
sogginess. The high has set re-
mOrSelessly off the east. pull
ing UP the warm, moist air from
the South Atlantic.
According to the 5-day fore
cast, it is going to continue at
least through Thursday: Plenty
of heat, far too much humidity
and those now familiar thun-
dershowers. There is hope a
change for the better will set in
about Friday.

whether a license should be
issued for the cat.
Emitting loud, unhappy
noises inside a black box. the
6-month-old ocelot was toted
to Mr.. Kings Office by his own
er, James E. Coan.
Quick Ruling
Mr.. King quickly decided
Sabu should be subject to the
wild-animal regulation, to wit:
mo captured wild animal is
permitted to be kept or dis
played on any public space
without a. permit"
Mr.. Coan protested in vain
that his pet was sold to him
by a pet shop only after it
was thoroughly tanned and
that fellow harmless ocelots
resided in many other homes
throughout the country. How
ever. he decided to follow Mr.
Kings suggestion to seek a
permit rather than take the
matter to court.
Sabu, who drew quite a
crowd after he was let out of
his box for inspection, probably
will get his permit from the
Commissioners, Mr.. King sug-
gested But, he noted, a first
hand check at the Zoo over the
week end verified his convic-
ton that an ocelot must be
classified as a wild animal.
Keeper Agrees
Eugene Maliniak. head
keeper of small mammals at
the Zoo, called as a city wit

he never had heard of an oce-
lot classified as a domesticated
animal.

monkeys, yet they can't have
them out there without a per-
nit" Mr.. King declared.

Coan and Mr.. Sabu went

Building, hoping for a con-

away from Mr.. Mawyer's body
about 1:10 am. Saturday. The
body was found in the street
in the 500 block of Woodland
terrace, just around the corner
from the home of Mr.. and Mrs.
Roger Colt.
Mrs. Colt, so. mother-in-law
of the slain man. has admitted
firing four shots through a
rear screen when she heard a
noise" She has been charged
with the murder of her daugh-
ter's estranged husband and
released under $4,000 bond.
Hope for Cooperation
Police said they hope the
man they seek will come for
ward to tell whether he was
with the 22-year-old grocery
clerk in the Colt backyard
when the fatal shots were fired
by Mrs. Colt. They want him
to state if he was with the
victim, how far from the house
Mr.. Mawyer was standing and
whether there was any CONVEX
sation among the principals.
There was i'll feeling between
Mr.. Mawyer and his in-lawS
concerning his separation from
their daughter, Kay Colt Maw-
yer, II, who gave birth to a
son shortly after their es-
arrangement three months ago.
Mr.. Mawyer had been warned
by both the Colts and police
to stay away from his in-laws
home at 2406 Taylor avenue
in the Jefferson Park area
of Alexandria.
In the meantime, court rec
ords in Alexandria today dis
closed that Mr.. Mawyer was
divorced from his first wife,
Mrs. Peggy Mawyer-since re-
married-on February 5. The

was that her husband had

Trade Board
Fails to Win
JobIess Plea

The Washington Board of
Trade and four local employ
ers failed today to block pay
ment here of extended unem-
ployment benefit funds.
Federal Judge. Alexander
Holtzoff, hearing a request by
the board and the employers
for a preliminary Injunction
TO stop the District Unemploy-
ment Compensation Board
from distributing the money,
ruled that the complainantS
had no standing to sue.
He agreed with Justice De-
partment Attorney Donald B.
Macguineas that the board
and the employers could not
restrain the Government from
paying out money on a mere
contention that the expendi-
ture is illegal.
He also said the suit was
filed without the consent of
the United States. which is not
permitted by law.
Leonard j. Calhoun, repre-
senting the board and the en-
ployers, contended the District
could not pay out the funds un-
less Congress provided specific
authorization for this action by
the District Unemployment
Compensation Board.
Judge Hotzof went along
with Mr.. Macguineas' conten-
ton that the District is acting
as an agent of the Federal Gov
ernment. He added that the
board and the employers might
have other remedies by filing
suit in the District Tax Court
or paying the unemployment
tax and suing for a refund.

Town Review

Arlington Board
Won't Reconsider
Custer of Ex-Red
BY SAM EASTMAN
star stan Writer

Arlington school officials have
quietly refused to reopen the
case against Miss Agnes Sailer.
q teacher they fired because Of
her membership Is years ago
in the Communist Party.
Acting at a recent closed con-
ference, school board members
rejected the teachers request
that her name and professional
reputation be cleared.
Miss Sailer, who was fired
hastily last April after un-
named citizen informants told
officials of her past Communist
ties, also asked that she be paid
for the balance of the school
year.
Dismissal Voted
After voting for her dismis-
sal, the board had decided that
teachers applying for jobs
would be questioned as to mem
bership in the Communist
Party or any other subversive
organization. At a subsequent
meeting. board members Robert
A. Peck and Mrs. Helen Lane
unsuccessfully tried to extend
the new requirement to teach
ers and other employees already
in the system.
In her letter to the board,
which had not been made
public, Miss Sailer said it was
Understandable that she had
been fired rather hastily" in
the light Of the general poll
tical climate" and added:
But now that there has
been time for a more delib-
crate view Of the whole situa-
ton I am confident that you
will see the injustice Of the
action and will be ready to do
the fair thing by me-"
Manual Cited
Miss Sailer, who had admit
ted being a Communist in New
York from 1885 to 1945, said
that none of the reasons listed
in the Personnel Policies and
Procedures Manual for imme-
diate dismissal of a probation
ary teacher applied in her case,
The board. which had re-
ferred the letter to its attor-
ney, James H. Simmonds, has
notified Miss Sailer that her
appeal had been rejected be-
cause:
"a. Your former member
ship in the Communist Party
impaired your effectiveness
to such an extent as to war
rant the discontinuance of your
employment
I'VE believe nothing would be
accomplished by now reopen
ing the subject :, Neither the
division superintendent nor the
board can properly be held re-
sponsible for the record, which
must speak for ITSELF"
Court Action Considered
Today, Miss Sailer said she
had considered taking her case
to court, but had hesitated to
do so because of the time and
financial factors and because
of lack of community support.
She said she had been in
touch with Arlington Educa-
tion Association officials but
that they had been unable to
advise her on the matter.

Few Requests Made
For Zoning Changes
District Awaits
Further Tests
On New Rules
By HARRIET GRIFFITHS
Star stan Writer

oeeA oeeA WAieet
washington's new coming
regulations so far have aroused
a food of questions but rela.
lively few concrete requests for
changes. a check disclosed
today.
Government and industry
observers believe it will not be
possible to Judge the full effect
of the new rules until they have
been tested more thoroughly
in actual practice.
Proposals for changes in
seven aspects of the new reg
ulations and for two zoning-
map alterations will be taken
up by the Zoning Commission
at a public hearing at 10 am.
wednesday.
Most prominent among the
suggested changes is move to
relax the requirements on ele-
vator or stairway penthouses
on buildings. The rules now
base their permitted height
partly on the distance they are
set back from the buildings
outside walls. Under the
change, the setback would be
related to the buildings lot line.
62.8SS Telephone Calls
Since the new regulations
went into effect last May II.
the zoning administration office
has counted 1888 telephone in
quiries and 1851 visits for ques-
tions and consultations. On the
first day the rules were in eff
feet, the Office received 1870 calls
between 8:15 am. and / pm.
In addition to the subjects
to be taken up Wednesday the
coming Office has l3 proposed
changes in the coming map
pending. Most are requests co
relax residential use-restric-
tions. About three requests for
regulation amendments are
pending.
In the two months since the
regulations became effective,
there have been a total of "a
requests for map changes.
Normally according to Robert
o. Clouser, planning officer Of
thee zoning commission, there
are about rs such requests over
a years period.
Mr.. Clouser said he did not
anticipate more than a 25 per
cent increase in requests for
individual adjustments under
the zoning rules before the
Board OF Zoning Adjustment.
The SO cases heard in June
constituted record number
for a monthly session. but most
of them involved requests for
parking lots.
Rush Of Applications
The city experienced a rush
of applications for buildings to
get in under the wire before
the effective date of the new
zoning code. Permits must
have been issued on these ap-
plications by next November.
zoning officials say that up
to now most of the requests for
changes have been in the field
of correction and simplification.
people are still absorbing the
regulations" said Assistant En-
gineer Commissioner Thomas
Hunter.
The Washington Building
Congress is asking its members
in its July bulletin to submit
any needed changes they en-
counter for study by a subcom.
mittee headed by Arthur H.
Keyes, jr., by September /.
Mr.. Keyes said that when all
the information is filed, 1t is
intended to consult with such
other interested organizations
as the Washington Real Estate
Board and the Washington
Board Of Trade on compilation
of a complete list of needed
changes.
The congress has joined
other affected organizations in
a review of the regulations. It's
bulletin points out that many
of the needed changes are not
apparent until the regulations
are applied to specific cases.
