A public hearing on the
purchase of a little more
than two-and-a-half acres of
land bounded by Georgia,
Hermitage and Arcola aves.,
Silver Spring, as a site for a
Wheaton Regional Library
has been set for 3 pm, May

600. The county has not been
able to secure options on the re-
naming portions, but the Coun-

go ahead and include that por-
ton in the public hearing for
purposes of discussion.
The proposed combined sites
are located about three blocks
North of the Our Lady of Good

Town Heads
ToAppeal
Fee Ruling

Nine past and present
elected officials of Gathers
burg will fight a recent
Montgomery County Circuit
Court ruling that seven of
them, and the estate of one
who is dead, must pay back
S7400 they received as fees
from the city.
They are divided into two
groups. The first group that
will take its collective case to
the Maryland Court of Appeals
as citizens are Councilmen E.
Russell Gloyd, Rodney M.
Thompson, John w. Griffith,
Charles P. Fox, George w. Mar
shall, G. Sprigg Ward and ex-
mayor Harry c. Perry. The
estate of the late councilman
Samuel B. Briggs also will be
a party to the appeal.
The second group to appeal
the ruling is composed Of mem
bers of the Gaithersburg Coun-
Gil that includes Griffith,
Thompson and Gloyd, and newly
elected Milton Walker and John
r. Thomas.
The first group will appeal
on the grounds that while they
did receive fees from the city,
they did so as independent
workers, not as councilmen.
The City Council will appeal
in the belief that Circuit Court
Judge Kathryn J. Lawlor's rul-
ing is so sweeping and broad,
it "straightjackets" the city in
its dealings with businessmen.
"Any citizen of our town is
entitled to haul us into court
if he doesn't approve of our
stewardship, but we don't like
the tenor of this thing" a
Spokesman for the citizen-Coun-
cilmen said.
The Councilmen are entitled
to receive $50 a month salary
while the Mayor, Merton F. Du-
vail, is entitled to $50. Duvall
has never drawn the money, he
said, nor was he ever named in
a suit charging illegal accept
ance of fees from the city.
II felt it (the practice) was
wrong" he had stated earlier.

The Planning Commission
recommended two sites as more
desirable, but the Council ig-
nored them on recommendations
by Reese.
The first consisted of 81 acres
on Bluridge ave., behind a build
ing occupied by the Equitable
Savings and Loan Association
and extending Northward to the
Southern limits of the Catholic
high school.
Reese told the Council that
the sites owners did not want
to sell at this time and he rec.
commended against instituting
condemnation proceedings.
The second site was across
Georgia ave. just North of Blu
ridge ave. but this would be un-
feasible, Reese said, because it
already is zoned for commercial
use.
Wheaton area citizens have
sought a library somewhere
near the proposed area for a
long time. They also have sug.
gested that the library be COM
bined with a youth activities
center, but Reese and the Coun-
Gil, generally, looked with dis
favor on the youth center pro-
posal. It will not be a part of
the public hearing.

Milk War
Still On
In Area

There was no let up in the
areas milk supply war this
week as Chestnut Farms
(Sealtest) Dairy found new
sources of supply of out-of-
state milk.
A major Sealtest supplier,
Penn Dairy of York, Pa, was
banned from shipping more
milk into the state after official
tests showed bacteria counts
higher than the acceptable Mary
land standard of 100000 per
cubic centimeter.
Spokesman for Sealtest said
their dairy has stepped up ship
ments from its Lancaster, Pa,
receiving station to make up the
difference. Out-of-state impor-
tations have remained steady at
about 10000 gallons a day, they
said.
Meanwhile, governors Of the
MaryIand-Virginia Milk Produc.
ers Association were TO vote to-
day on a proposed Federal milk
marketing order that would
establish minimum prices for
local dairy farmers.
1t would set an average price
Of $40 a hundredweight, as
against a current Association
price of $685..
Sealtest officials have said the
dairy is willing to meet this
price but objects to paying an
additional Accent premium for
high-quality milk as demanded
by the coop.
DR.. William J. Peoples, Mont
gomery County health officer,
said state health officials this
week are inspecting facilities of
the banned Penn Dairy. If the
dairy can lower the bacteria
count of its milk, its shipments
may be readmitted to the state.

.py sports Culture Center
Is Proposed by Stanley Frosh

Stanley B. Frosh, fresh
man County Councilman,
this week called for a study
by a new committee of the
possibility of the County
building a sports-culture CEN
ter similar to one now in op-
Grafton in Belgium.
Frosh envisioned a four-audi-
forum center that could be uti-
lized by the performing arts and
by basketball and tennis players.
In flow of rhetoric unbroken
for several minutes, Frosh
painted a picture of a structure
that could be used by all Mont
gomery County residents, includ-
ing those who like to bowl or
listen to concert orchestras.
Furt h erm or e, he said, the
county doesn't have any place
to stage conventions and such a
building as he proposed could
attract large groups of persons
out of crowded Washington.
His remarks came after the
County Council examined a four.
page memorandum from Coun-
ty Manager Melvin L. Reese
that set guideposts for a com.
mittee of 25 to study recrea-
tional activities in Montgomery
County.
Specifically, the committees

Trash Strike
Delay is Won
Union Awaits
Legal Ruling
From State

Word that Maryland At
torney General C. Ferdinand
Sybert will look into the
Washington Suburban SAM
tary Commissions authority
to bargain with organized
labor forestalled a possible
strike this week by blue col
lar workers and garbage col
lectors.
Local 929 of the American
Federation of State, County and
Municipal Employees, which
claims a WSSC membership of
500, has been trying to open
negotiations on labor questions
with the Commission for more
than a year.
A union spokesman said the
"big beef" is frightening of
trash and garbage collection by
the WSSC without increasing
personnel and sometimes actu.
ally decreasing it. Six man
crews, in clu ding the driver,
should operate the trucks, the
spokesman said. He added that
the union hopes, in addition, to
establish a grievance procedure.
Base pay for the unskilled la.
borers, he said is $53 per week
and the WSSC has twice in the
past two years granted pay
raises of one cent an hour-one
cent for each year.
Pay, however, is not an issue
at this time, he said.
Chief grippe of the union is
that WSSC officials say they
have no legal authority to recog-
nize the union as bargaining
agent. A bill to accomplish this
was peddled by union officials
to nearby Maryland legislators
during the last session of the
General Assembly but died for
want of sponsor.
After the Monday night meet
ing at which union members
voted to delay striking until the
attorney general rules, President
Arnold S. lander, of the inter
national, wired Gov. j. Willard
Tawes that the situation had
become urgent"
He said he acted because of
Continued Interrogation of EN-.
ployes regarding their union af-
filiation." Charging that such
activity is intimidation of the
rankest order" he told Tawes
the union would await further
word from you"
The Washington Central La.
Dor Union (AFL-CIO) voted
Monday to "give every support
10 the local union. And Mary.
land State AFLCIO officers
have already voted to back the
garbage collectors.
WSSC officials have consist
emily refused to recognize the
union in the absence of guiding
legislation. They have, instead,
sided with past court decisions
holding that such agencies may
remain aloof from labor unions.
In a telegram to Attorney Gen.
eral C. Ferdinand Sybert, the
union provided him with ex-
amples of numerous legal prece.
dents concerning recognition Of

lice employers" the spokesman

Dragging is a sport in which
cars from zero miles per hour

said.
The students felt they could
do little to stop vandalism, al
though mayor" Mandy Evans
of Richard Montgomery High
School quipped young people
should do something, because
adults haven't been able to do
much"
Although suggestions were
made for a campaign against
vandalism, including films show
ing the ugly results of vandalis-
tic acts, posters, and rebukes
from non-vandalistic teens, these
were generally held ineffective
by the group.
AS one boy put 1t, "How do

showing the horrible aftermath
of automobile accidents was
shown at one high school with
out appreciably dampening the
spirits of the tire-squealers.
Councilman" Patty Bouic said
it made most kids sick to hear
of vandalism, but she was not
sure what this majority of teens
could do to stop the few.
The students unanimously
agreed teens should have a hand
in drawing up teen-center regu-
lations and in carrying them
out.
The junior council members
suggested that membership in
the center be easily obtainable
but necessary for a teen using
the center and that all members
take full responsibility for their
guests, including paying for any
damage they or their guests
might do.
