grated schools.
In Warren County, 424 Of the
483 grants approved were for

proved there were for pupils
attending private schools, pri-
marily the Congressional and
Flint Hill Schools.
In Alexandria, a school
spokesman said 80 grants had
been approved. About 80 more
are expected to be approved
next month. Only about a half
dozen involve pupils who were
in the Alexandria public schools

FROM POTOMAC TO POOLESVILLE

One of the Potomac Hunts
members, Valentine Wilson of
Rockville, was making visits
around Poolesville last Friday
in hopes of obtaining per-
mission from landowners for
the hunt to go over their prop
erty. At the farm of Mr.. and
Mrs. Harold Smith, jr., he
learned that "a strange mus
tang" had moved into the barn
yard several days earlier and
was making itself at home.
Mr.. Wilson duly reported
this to Mary Ragan's mother,
Mrs. Tinsley Adams, because he
had seen the posters.

The fast-growing county Of
more than 400 square miles has
been plagued with water supply
problems since the surge to the
suburbs began.
The Board Of County Super
visors acted to ease the water
shortage last winter when they
passed an ordinance requiring
developers to install fire hy-
drants in new subdivisions.
Despite the county's fast de-
velopment, officials had not
been able to require developers
to provide hydrants, although
most Of the builders did install
them.
The ordinance was passed
after firemen found they had
to run hoses a considerable dis.
tance when fire broke out at st.
Anthony's Catholic School. near
Baileys Crossroads. The board
authorized funds for installa-
ton of hydrants where needed
at schools.
A companion problem has
been the lack Of water mains
large enough to provide ade-
quate water flow to the hy-
drants. A water supply report
in 1854 said nearly 80 per cent
Of the mains in the county
were too small for effective
water flow.

VINO chooses TO aJJenQ q prl-

The State and the localities
pay percentage shares of the
scholarships, which are part of
Virginia's freedom Of choice"
program to cope with school
desegregation.
A survey Of 38 cities and
counties by the Associated
Press and Richmond News
Leader-including the five To-
calities where integration ac-
tually has taken place-shows
that 1920 applications for pupil
scholarships have been ap-
proved. OF this number, 1924
pupils are enrolled in private
schools and 296 in public
schools outside their own coun-
ty or city.
While the list is far from
complete-there are 98 counties
and 81 cities in Virginia = it
does give an indication Of the
extent to which the pupil scho-
larships are being used.
The five integrated localities
report large numbers of pupils
seeking scholarships, although
in many instances the pupils
using grants would not have to
attend integrated public schools.
Warren County, for example,
has approved scholarships for
483 pupils. Other integrated
areas reported these figures on
the number of approved schol-
arships: Alexandria, 80; Arling-
ton, 70; Charlottesville, 464,
and Norfolk, 225.
In Norfolk, 1876 of the 225
grants approved were for pupils
attending Tidewater Academy,

suit of integration, a school Of

authority, which began work
ing last year toward an inte-
grated water main network, IL
replacing these inadequate
lines on the Annandale water
system. "It's a continuing
thing and it will take about
four years." he said.
Solutions to problems involv-
ing other water companies must
wait until the water authority
purchases them and brings
them into the system, he added.
The water authority inspects
hydrants in the Annandale
system. Hydrants in the Falls
Church system are checked by
the city. Those in the Alex
andria system are checked by
Fairfax County's Department
Of Public Works.
Smaller water systems in the
county are in "a sort of nc
mans land" Mr.. Corbalis said
Some are checked by local FIRE
departments.
Fire Marshal Burton said
firemen must realize they can
not depend on hydrants unless
they are inspected.
Mr.. Burton said if firemer
do not know the capacity OF
hydrants in their areas they
should discuss this with water
companies involved or test the
hydrants themselves.
He said that f1remen "some-
times don't realize the general
limitations Of hydrants" and
hook three lines to a plug with
water enough for only two.
This is something the fire
companies themselves should
find out" Mr.. Burton said.
