THANKFUL

Sometimes I'm forgetfu that will admit;
Sometimes am thoughtess and fail to do my bit;
Sometimes get angry things quite clear;
Sometimes am careless Of those should hold dear.
And yet, dear God, believe me- for every word true
There's that passes by I'm not thanking

For all those special blessings you shower
To live within land like ours to and talk and see
To have a shining rainbow that helps find way,
To have a home to turn to at the a busy day
For all these little something's thank you Lord again

The County Council plans
to study the District of Co.

residents appeal for meas
ures to curb teenage night ac-
tivities.
County Manager Mason
Butcher was instructed this
week to report to the county
heads on the "practicability and
enforceability" of the District
law.
In addition, William Hickey
suggested that the councils
Commission on Youth "take
notice" of the law and make
recommendations on whether it
is needed in Montgomery
County.
The councils action came
after reading a letter from a
group of homeowners adjacent
to the North Four Corners Rec

The property owners suggest
ed that the council adopt a law
similar to that in the District
of Columbia to stop the loud

streperous" conduct of teen
ayers using the center at night.

City Asked
To Annex 100
Acres on Pike

The Rockville City Coun-
Gil, Monday, received a re-
quest for the city to annex
the 100 acre Washington
National Pike Industrial
Park.
Melvin Robinson, head of the
Robinson Realty Corp. of Sill
yer Spring, requested annexa-
ton in order to obtain city
utilities for the tract which
borders Route 240 south of the
Motel Washingtonian.
Robinson said he has con-
tracted to build a 10 square acre
building for Emerson Radio and
Photograph, Inc, and is in
negotiation with other firms
that are interested in this loca-
ton.
Council members noted the
parcel is within the maximum
expansion limits for the city as
set forth in the master plan, and
indicated interest in annexing it.
Acting Mayor Frank A. Ecker
directed the staff to work out
possible ways Of financing the
cost, estimated at 1914 500, of
carrying city utilities to the In
dustrial Park.
If this problem is satisfac-
torily solved an open hearing
will be held on the annexation.

A tentative school building

ton of at least 13 new
schools has been presented
for consideration of the
Board of Education as a means
of countering the threat Of
double sessions and overcrowd.
ing
The building program was
submitted to the board this
week .along with ominous re-
ports that some 1000 pupils will
have to attend classes on a
double-shift basis next year and
another 5000 will be jammed
into overcrowded classrooms.
Both the building proposals and
the enrolment reports came
from Lester ]. WEIGH, director
of school facilities.
WEIGH said the enrolment for
next year should reach about
$4,000, some 5000 more than
this years figure. He said he

Seneca Creek
Land Should
Be Purchased
Bliss Attacks
State for Not
Buying Ground

Frank Bliss, prominent
county businessman, has
leveled a blistering attack
against Joseph F. Kaylor,
director of the Maryland
Department of Forests and
Parks. for failing to acquire
land Tor the Seneca Creek State
Park near Gaithersburg.
Bliss, who is president of the
80-member Seneca Creek Park
Advisory Association, told the
County Council this week he
plans to ask Gov. Tawes to GUST
Kaylor and reorganize the de-
partment in a move to "get ac-
ton on this vitality important
project"
There is $250,000 just sit
ting in the State Treasury for
this purpose, yet Kaylor so far
has refused to move" Bliss de-
clared.
In response to his request, the
council agreed to express its
concern" to the Governor and
to emphasize the urgent need to
purchase the land before it is
gobbled up by housing develop
mentS.
Bliss said the association has
repeatedly "prodded" Kaylor but
that the latter has refused to
move. He added that Kaylor
has told the group he is hest
tant to file condemnation pro-
ceedings in the belief that land
in the area eventually would
ego down" to 500 an acre.
While declining to estimate
present land values there, Bliss
said there is no land in the
county that can be bought for
9lUU an acre.
I'VE must begin acquiring
this land within the next six
months" he warned, cor lose il
to subdivisions. As a matter OF
fact, part of the property that
would logically be included in
the park has already been de-
veloped.
Bliss said the State had &C.
quired about 300 acres for the
park nearly five years ago, but
that very little had been done to
develop it.
He added that the Seneca
situation is basically the same
throughout the State.
I'VE are far behind Virginia
in park acquisition and develop
ment," he asserted, "and Vir.
GINA is far behind West Vir-
ginia and Pennsylvania.
"The Park and Planning
Commissions program in Mont.
gomery County is larger than
the entire State program. And
Jack Hewitt (the commissions
park director) is a marvel com.
pared with Kaylor."
Bliss said the Seneca Park
should consist of between 1200
and 800 acres and is in an ex-
cellent location becaues of its
proximity to the heavily-popu-
later suburban portion of the
county.
He also said the association
plans to recommend change
in the membership of the Com
mission of Forests and Parks,
an advisory body to the State
department.
