reasons for wanting to speak
the language were quiet ma
ture."
Conversational Method
Teaching under FILES is
purely conversational, though
the direct method of identify
ing objects. telling stories and
playing games. Two third
graders were the youngest in
her group.
Teaching Russian sounds
is almost like directing a choir,
Miss Vigneras explained. Sim
ply by watching the movement
of my hands, the children could
follow. 1t was surprising how
quickly they caught on. My
Russian classes proceeded at
exactly the same speed as my
other group learning French.
Between February and June,
her students learned how to
hold conversations in Russian.
The class tried out its newly
learned skills when they ex-
change visits with children of
diplomatic families at the
Soviet embassy here.

Planners
Reject II
Rezoninqs

The Arlington County Plan
ming Commission last night
turned down IL of % requests
for rezonings for apartment
projects. The ones approved
were for small, garden-type
projects.
Included in the reflections
were five requests for nigh
rise coming which would have
permitted apartments rs feet
tall.
Two Of the rejected appli-
cations were for high-rise
apartments on Old Dominion
drive across from Stratford
Junior High School. They in
volved a 6-acre tract and a
2-acre tract a half block to
the west where 10-story apart
ments would be built.
Other high-rise rezonings
turned down we're for a tract
on Washington boulevard
across from Washington-Lee
High School, on North Thir-
tenth street between Taft and
Scott streets and on Columbia
pike at South Frederick street.
The commission approved
high-rise apartments for a g.
acre tract at Columbia pike
and Greenbriar street to pre-
vent it from developing
commercially. The land is now
zoned commercial.
Two other high-rise re-
zonings approved were for a
small tract on Old Dominion
drive next to Potomac Towers
Apartments, and for a tract on
Columbia pike which already
has tall apartments built on it
The other 10 apartment re-
zonings approved by the COM
mission were for small garden
type projects in areas which
already are predominantly built
up with similar apartments.
The commission favored
elimination of a floating"
commercial zone from a 95-acre
tract near darlington. The
four-acre area was zoned COM
mercial by a former board
which did not designate it's
shape or location.
The land in which the float
ing commercial zone is located
is owned by Mrs. Allie Freed.
owner of the Buckingham
apartment development, and
is located along Four Mile Run
near Shirlington. The remain
der Of the IS acres is zoned for
garden-type apartments.
The commission turned down
commercial rezoning requested
by Thomas Broyhill for a $1.2
million Office building rs feet
tall on a tract at North Glebe
road and Fairfax drive.
All Of the applications now 90
to the county board for final
action.
