was awarded the contract for
construction of the brick, split
level building at a cost of
$135,079. Completion of the
project is scheduled in eight
months.
Designed to serve primarily
as a social center for teenagers
during non-school hours, the
youth center is the first of e
such buildings proposed to be
constructed in so.called bright
light" districts throughout
Montgomery and Prince
Georges counties.
One of the goals of the youth
center program will be to at
tract youngsters away from
potential trouble spots in bust
ness centers. Complaints from
businessmen have mounted in
recent years because of the
tendency of young people to
congregate in and around bust
ness places, creating nuisance
problems and adversely affect
ing business operations.
Among the facilities to be in
cluded in the Bethesda Center
will be social hall for dancing
and plays, a game room for
table tennis and similar activi-
ties, a lounge, snack bar and
hobby and music rooms.
All activities at the center
will be under the supervision
of the Montgomery County De-
partment of Recreation.

Rockville city authorities
are cycling with keen interest
a November referendum in
which Maryland voters will,
in effect, decide on a pro-
posal to broaden the states par.
ticipation in the federal urban
renewal program.
Even though they know the
success of their efforts will de-
pend entirely on the outcome
of the balloting, Mayor Alex
ander ]. Green and the City
Council, along with other Off
Gals, are working quietly but
steadily toward the development
of machinery that will enable
the city to take immediate ad-
vantage of the provisions of the
program if it gains voter ap-
proval.
= At issue is a constitutional
amendment which would do
away with a provision that now
prevents all Maryland jurisdic.
tons except the city of Balti-
more from receiving the bene-
fits of the government program.
1T involves a simple change of
wording.
E AS now written, the Constitu-
ton permits local governments
to condemn land for public
use" only. Under the proposed
amendment, the Technology
would be changed to allow use
of such land for public pur-
poses"
Would Remove Barrier
+ The simple change would re-
move major barrier to extern
sive redevelopment of con-
demned properties, permitting
their resale to private interests
for desirable projects and quail
flying the local communities for
extensive government benefits
available to sponsors of ap-
proved urban renewal pro-
grams. AS now written, the
law restricts use of such land
to governmental purposes.
In anticipation of favorable
action by the voters, city au-
thorities have taken positive
steps which would permit the
city to utilize the urban renew
al program as swiftly as would
be legally possible. A provision
creating a department of urban
renewal in the city government
is Incorporated in the recently
adopted budget of City Man.
ager Walter A. Scheiber and,
more recently, the council
adopted a resolution author
izing creation of an urban re-
newal advisory council to
lend guidance to the program.
One of the functions of the
committee, according to the en-
abling resolution, is to create
a community concern about
neighborhood blight and to OBJ
tain and disseminate informa-
ton which will lay the founda-
ton for a sound municipal re-
development progra m" The
group, on its organization, will
conduct studies and appraisals
and will obtain such informa-
ton about urban renewal pro-
cedures "as will p e p r e
the City of Rockville for an
effective and total approach to
its neighborhood rehabilitation
problems under an Urban Re-
newal Program"
Legislation Needed
While a favorable vote in No
vember is all that is necessary
to alter the constitution, local
Jurisdictions desiring to partici-
pate in urban renewal still will
have to obtain legislative ap-
proval through enactment OF
local bills. However, observers
have agreed that any commune
ties seeking such approval
would encounter no obstacles in
Annapolis.
Federal benefits provided un'
der the program include finan.

want Mrs. Neuberger over
shadowed by Republican SEN
ator Margaret Chase Smith

Mrs. Smith, first elected to
the Senate in 1854, en-
trenched her position in the
November balloting by prov
ing herself the best vote
getter among Republican
senatorial candidates.
Although the vote In her
State was much smaller than
in other areas, Mrs. Smith
defeated q woman opponent.
Miss Lucia Cormier. by tax
ing 61s6 per cent Of the votes
east in the Maine Senate
race.
) Mrs. Neuberger, widow Of
the late Senator Richard L.
Neuberger, proved herself q
real vote-getter, too. She
bucked a tide that gave Vice
President Richard M. Nixon,
the Republican presidential
nominee. 52.6 per cent Of
Oregon's vote.
Running both for the short
term to finish out her hus-
bands tenure this year and
for a new Six-year term, Mrs.
Neuberger handily defeated
Republican Elmo Smith. The
woman candidate won the
short term with 55.1 per cent
Of the total vote and the six
year term by 54.6 per cent.
Mrs. Neuberger's victory
made her q member Of the
Senate on November 8, the
date the term Of her appoin-
tive predecessor, Hall s.
LuSk, expired.
Although she cannot be
sworn in for the short term
because it expires at noon
January 3 when the Senate
meets, her pay and her SEN
iority began in November.

Childbearing Still
Has SuperstitiOns
Among Hawaiians

HONOLULU up - Some expec-
tant mothers in Hawaii still hold
to superstitions on childbearing
that were brought to the islands by
their forbears three generations
ago. the State Department of
Health says.
For example, mothers-to-be Of
ten say ''No thanks" when the squid
-an oriental delicacy-is passed
around.
They like squid, but, a Chinese
and Filipino belief that it may re-
suit in difficult delivery or an abb
normal child says they shouldn't
eat it.
Such strange superstitions show
ed up among mothers of Chinese,
Japanese, Filipino and Polynesian
ancestry.
Common to all four races is a
belief that pregnant women should
not loaf around or rest too much.
If they do, their child will be lazy
and fat.
A Filipino belief restricts the
new mothers housework, travel
and dancing for three months. She
can't read or have a bedroom light
Immediately after delivery, to pre-
vent blindness.
To some Japanese, the sex of the
baby determines when the mother
returns to her housework If it's
boy, the time is 80 days. She
waits 33 days if it's a girl.
The expectant Filipino mother
may have many things to remem-
ber to keep evil spirits away and
produce a healthy child:

Gun-TOtin' CO-eds
Get Big Bang
By JUDY LEWIS

COLUMBIA, Mo. (AP)-Missouri
University goods are proving that
If you can't get man with a gun,
you can at least get rabbit.
Gun-totin' girls may be seen al
most any dawn these days, accom-
panying campus sportsmen on
early-morning rabbit hunts. And
when a pretty coed draws a bead
on a scampering cottontail, the ad-
miration of her male companions
is unrestrained.
GUN GIRLS
Students say that they have
taken up the sport to disprove the
current belief that the new gener-
alton is too "beat" to do anything
but brood morbidly, write glum
poetry, paint modernly or pound
monotonously on bongo drums.
A rabbit hunt before breakfast,
they point out, is healthful, whole
some, invigorating and fun.
The girls taking part in the new
campus craze are not only the fe-
male agriculture students who
prowl the campus in blue jeans
and 10-gallon hats. Enthusiastically
in their midst are sorority girls
bent on proving that they, too, are
interested dn the outdoor life, and
can shine on the hunting range as
well as the dance floor.
