School officials said this week
they are studying ways of pro-
viding safe entrance to the new
Gaithersburg Junior High
School off Diamond ave.
The Gaithersburg P-TA and
some members of the Town
Council have objected that the
entrance as originally planned
would constitute a safety haz.
ard to children.
The entrance was to have
been at point close to a curve
on Diamond ave. This would
cause problems of safety, con.
venience and appearance" &C.

Lester WEIGH, director of
school sites and planning, said
his office has asked the County
Public Works Department to
consider the possibility of alter
ing the curve in the road.
If this cannot be done. Welch
said, architects may be able to

In addition to the tax increase

missioner Leighton Dudley said,
pointing out the new entrance to
the center remains banked on

questing funds for furnishings

council not to forget the civic
center "is a capital investment.
1t would be shame to neglect
this beautiful building"
Scheiber defended his $12,3S7
appropriation, pointing out there
are trust funds available fol-
civic center use not reflected in
the budget.
Planning Commissioner Chair
man Leslie NJ. Able attacked the
budgeted S51,025 surplus to be
used as a contingency fund as
uneconomicaly. "If the city
needs the extra money it would
be less costly to the taxpayer for
the city TO borrow" he said.
Without this surplus an in
crease in taxes would not be
necessary, he said.

Mr.. Bridges did not once

BARLEY C. Crum, New York
attorney, told the committee
Monday that Mr.. Bridges had
approached him in an alleged
scheme to buy off one of the
court-appointed monitors for
James H. Hoffa's Transfers
Union. Mr.. Crum said the long
run aim was a merger of the
Bridges and Hoffa unions.
In his article, Mr.. Bridges
denied that any such merger
was planned.
Such matters have never
been the subject of discussion
between the ILWU and the
