I'M MEMORY
ROBERT K. KING


In memory of our husband and
father, Robert r. King, who pass
ed away three years ago, Nov.
%, 1856.
You waited there to welcome
us, so many times but then,
It never can be really home
without you there again.
Oh dear father how we miss
you and your face we'll see
no more.
But we hope some day to meet
where parting is no more.
For it would be selfish Of us
to wish you were here
To share with all the grlefs
and heartaches that we all
have to bear.
We're consoled by the thought
that you are resting ard
waiting for us over there.
Sadly missed by:
Wife, Minnie,
Children and Grandchildren.

Late School
Closing Date
OKd for 90

A reluctant school board has
approved a 1880 school calen.
dar which includes one of the lat
est school closing dates liz county
history.
The calendar, as recommended
by Superintendent c. Taylor
Whittier, sets June "a, 1860, as
the final day of school.
Several board members object.
ed to keeping schools open so late
in June, but ultimately agreed
with Whittier that no alternative
seemed to be feasible.
The school year will begin later
than usual september 81, be-
cause of the fact that Labor Day
falls on the latest possible date
september y.
Board members felt many par.
ents would object to any change
in the traditional day.after-Labor
Day opening.
The calendar includes 1856
school days, three more than the
current year, 200 duty days for
teachers, and 18 pupil holidays.

Against

It's completely unfair to make
responsible dog owners suffer all
the inconvenience Of complying
with such law just because a
few dog owners are irresponsible
and don't take proper care of their
pets. Punish those who should be
punished but not everybody.
The law would be unavoidable,
as written, because ii would be
very difficult to prove that dog
was not under voice or sign con.
troll.
Suppose dog in a yard bites
someone. The dog is under CON
troll by virtue Of being fenced, yet
the law reads any dog bite is
prima facie evidence the dog is
not under control. Who's right?
Why should a dog suffer for
his owners negligence? Wardens
should carry lists of licensed dogs
and return dogs TO their owners.
In no case should animals be i'm.
pounded.
The daily penalty OF So, com
pounded, is too steep for many
dog owners. Reduce penalty costs
after the first So TO 81 a day or
the animal shelter will not be
able to hold all Of the dogs 1t will
get.
The limit Of five days impound.
ment before animals are destroy.
ed or otherwise disposed Of is not
long enough. Raise it TO eight
(anothcr said l0) days TO give
doomed dogs a chance Of adop-
ton.
Not strong enough. Enact a
leash law.

For

A good ordinance because it is
not kind to dogs to allow them to
run at large 49, they get hit by
cars, mauled by kids, poisoned by
dog-haterS.
Good because it keeps packs of
dogs, even If they are friendly,
from "terrorizing" small children
on school Fairgrounds.
The Health Department report
cd 1893 calls of dog bites last year,
SO any kind of more restrictive
ordinance would be a good one.
If dogs were kept under owners
control while out for airings, they
wouldn't fowl lawns or destroy
expensive shrubbery. Also, cats
would be protected.
A first-day fine of 50 is OK but
owners who repeatedly let their
dogs run at large should be fined
on a graduated scale: $40, SIS,
$40, etc.
The law would be good in that
IL would lower the number Of per.
SONS bitten by dogs.

A sampling of county school Of
ficials confirms the popular no.
ton that many high school stu
dents prefer bumpers to books
and drag races to desks.
No studies have been made To-
cally to find out how this inclina-
ton affects their grades. But sur.
veys at two schools elsewhere in
the nation have turned up an
amazing correlation between hot
rod success and classroom failure.
In ReXburg, Idaho, not a single
straight-A student drove II car to
school. But whOpping 83 per
cent of Il students were motor.
lied, along with II percent of
those making DIS, Al percent of
those with Cs, and Is percent of
those with Bs,
At Prosser, Wash, only II per.
cent of A or B students had regu-
lar use of cars, as compared to
81 percent among those with c.
minus-to-failure grades.
Local school heads believe SINH
lar studies would show the same
general trends here, but they are
not convinced that the conclusions
would be as lopsided as in Idaho
and Washington.
There is little doubt that there
is some connection between regu-
lar use of a car and low grades
said William Gruver, assistant
principal at Wheaton High School.
But l am surprised that the re.
suits were so clearcut.
II can think of several of our
better students who drive to
school every day."
Why should driving result in
low marks, if it does?
The first reason is obvious.
When you're driving a car, you
can't be studying.
Boys with cars naturally have

Pavilion
Future
Weighed.

The future of a Rockville
pavilion at the city's civic
center may lie in the hands of
a five-man committee that has
only two weeks left to make
recommendations to the city's
Mayor and Council.
They have met twice. They can
recommend that plans for the
structure, which so far have cost
the city about $4,000, be scrapped
or modified and saved.
The $4,000 has been spent on
engineering services and archi.
tectural fees.
Eight construction bids for the
pavilion were rejected two weeks
ago, largely on the ground that
cost of the building had mounted
beyond what the city had budget
ed for its construction. Low bid
was $204 900 while the city origin
ally had hoped to spend about
$175,000.
Frank A. Ecker, councilman
chairman of the re-evaluati5n
committee, last week said the
committee had discussed whether
a building of different design
might serve the community's
reeds better, or as well, as the
proposed structure. No decision
of any kind was reached, he said.
Serving with him are fellow
Councilman Charles w. Pretty.
man and Joseph c. Rodgers;
Ralph f. Williams Civic Center
Committee chairman, and City
Manager Walter A. Scheiber.

County Building Plan
For Bethesda Barred

Details Of easing w h a t
County Manager Melvin l..
Reese has named 1.-THE Be:
thesda Problem" were re-
vealed Tuesday when a coun-
ty official disclosed a SIG
million plan to construct a
new county office building, a
new school, an enlarged Ii
brary and additional parking
space.
The official was Joseph c.
Kordella, public works depart
ment aide and member of the
Coordinating Committee, com.
prised of representatives Of the
Board of Education, the Wash.
ington Suburban Sanitary Com
mission, the Maryland-National
Capital Park and Planning Com
mission, Kordella and Forest V.
Gustafson, director of recreation
for the county.
An alternate plan TO achieve
the same results would cost
about 100000 less, Kordella told
the County Council. Both plans,
however. are workable and one
or the other should be instituted
soon to combat a growing prob
lem of overcrowded downtown
Bethesda facilities, Kordclla said.
The first plan proposed by the
Coordinating Committee called
for rebuilding OF the present
county service building on its
existing site. The current budget

a lot more things they can do,
Gruver remarked. Its easier foI
them to have a date, or to drive
down to the Hot Shoppe n I
spend the afternoon gassing with
the gang"
Probably more important, how
ever is the need for youths tC
hold down spare time jobs to pro
duce the cash that keeps them OF
the road.
Some principals felt that the
drivers need for money is the
single most significant factor ir
the high mileage-low grades rela
tionship.
MANY boys work afternoons
and weekends to pay for thei,
cars or to keep them up said
Joseph Tarallo of Richard Mont
gomery. THAT cuts substantially
into their study time"
In some instances, he said, boys
have Stunned varsity athletics
rather than quit the jobs thai
were keeping them motorized.
AS a result of the Rexburg
Idaho, survey, the school board
there banned all cars from school
except for those students who
could show a strong reason OF
need for driving.
The Rexburg principal said the
action was based on the belief
that restrictions on automobile
use will make for better attend
ance and closer attention to
