Twice he testified, the boys

several of the boys from the

TOiUn Charter Changes
To Be Aired Tuesday

Gaithersburg Town Coun'
Gil will hold a public hearing
next Tuesday night on pro-
posed changes in the Town
Charter.
A possible result Of the hear
ing, Town Attorney James Hane
said this week, could be to re-
verse the Councils earlier deci
sion to hold a referendum on
certain amendments.
The referendum would be
called off only if such action
seemed to be in line with gen
eral public sentiment, Hane
said.
"The people of the town made
several suggestions for charter
changes that weren't included in
the original amendments as pro
posed" Hane said.

visable, therefore, to make a
wholesale overhaul of the Char
ter and put it into effect by the
regular method of Council resO'

dignation that has been growing
for some time in Damascus

mecca for jockeys of souped-up
cars.
They were not charged with
reckless driving, but with dis
orderly conduct, instead. And
while Rockville Peoples Court
Judge Einar B. Christensen did
not convict them, he said from
the bench that they were guilty
as charged.
The young men were Donald
E. Larkin, Is, George Allen

E. Smith, 10, of Rockville; Den

All pleaded not guilty. They
were arrested August 13 on the
Damascus Acme store parking

While he did not reach a rul-

placed the charges against all
the youths on the "stet," or
pending docket and warned that
If any of the defendants were to

pending charges would be re
