runsfer for
Rope Suspect

A Washingtonian charged
with rape was allowed today
to transfer from st. Elizabeths
Hospital to District General
Hospital after pledging to CO.
operate with a new set of doc
tors on a mental examination.
District Court Judge Burnita
Shelton Matthews agreed to
this course after she learned
at a hearing that Robert
Wilcher, 35, of the 900 block
of Sixth street NE, has re-
fused for six months to tell st.
Elizabeths doctors anything
about his background.
Wilcher is charged with sim
pie assault on one girl and
assault with a dangerous weap-
on and rape of a 15-year -old
girl. He was indicted by a
District grand jury on Janu-
airy 4.
His court-appointed attorney,
w. T. Jones, explained to the
judge that Wilcher had refused
to discuss the case with Mr..
Jones and another appointed
attorney, P. A. Harris. Mr..
Jones said that all he had been
able to learn about the de-
fendant was his name.
Asked why he had been so
closemouthed, Wilcher re-
sponded that he did not think
his past was anybody'S busi-
ness and that he was doubtful
the doctors would be able to
determine his mental condition
at any time.
However, he said he would
prefer to go to District General
Hospital for a mental examina-
ton, adding that he would CO.

Silver Spring Porents

Sixty Silver Spring families

The parents have waged a
two-year feud with the Mont

their homes in Kemp Mill Es-
tates to the school.
The county policy is to pro-
vide transportation for those
who live 2 miles or more from
school.
Both factions made various
measurements, between Kemp
Mill Estates and the school, at
Dennis and Julep avenues. The
mileage, according to school
authorities, did not warrant
bus service to the entire SUBJ

The
Rambler
Feels He
Is Going Nuts
BY GEORGE KENNEDY

Max Picard, the Swiss
philosopher, not to be con-
fused with August Picard,
the balloonist, has an idea
that schizophrenia is a 2Oth-
century disease.
He thinks man was more
contained, a bit calmer
about everything, when his
world was bounded by the
Mediterranean.
From his European PIN
nacle Picard pointed out
that he was somewhat dis
turbed by newspapers with
datelines from the several
continents, and magazines
with pictures of elephants
and kangaroos and other
exotic fauna.
He arrived at this dag
nosis of our ills without ex-
periencing radio, to say
nothing of TV.
But he was right, right,
right.
The Rambler has it and
has it bad - schizophrenia,
that is.
He has been living it up
too thoroughly.
Yesterday he witnessed
the final game of the World
Series and the second con-
f1ict of the Great Debate.
Now he wants to get away
from it all.
AS for the World Series,
he intended to write a little
treatise on gambling. He is

Engineers Put
Amount Lacking
At S. Million
BY JOHN BARRON
Star Stan Writer


Engineers estimate that a
sewerage system which will
absorb the impact of the new
Dulles Airport will cost about
SIS million more than Congress
appropriated.
District Sanitary Engineer
David v. Auld today confirmed
that preliminary studies indi-
cate construction of a sewer
from near ChantilIy, Va, to
Washington, together with
connections into Virginia and
Maryland will require $30,607,-
900.
Congress authorized $28 mil
lion and actually allotted $25.2
million for a system to protect
1.-THE Washington area water
supply from discharge of waste
both from the airport and the
community it would create.
Charges by KauI
Mr.. Aud made his comments
when queried about charges by
Democratic congressional can
didate Ralph Kaul, who today
revived the sewer controversy
as a major issue in his cam
paign to unseat Republican
Representative Broyhill.
Mr.. Auld emphasized that it
is possible that engineers have
overestimated the cost of the
comprehensive system and that
ways may be found to construct
it more cheaply. He also de-
clared there is no question"
that an intercepter can be built
from the airport to the District
treatment plant with funds
available.
However, he indicated it
probably would be necessary to
seek more money from Con-
greSS if connections serving the
Difficult Run. Horse Pen Run
and Sugarland Run area in Vir-
ginia and the Seneca, Watts
Branch and Muddy Branch
areas of Maryland are to be
included.
Lateral connections will not
extend to the Fairfax County
towns of Herndon and Vienna
nor will they serve the town
of Chantilly itself or the area
south Of the airport, he said.
But they might be built far
enough to enable Herndon,
Vienna and South Fairfax
County to tap into them at local
expense. he said.
| Mr.. Auld said "it is barely
possible" that the main sewer
can be completed by the sum-
mer of 1868.
/ Sees proof"
Mr.. Kaul declared that these
disclosures "unmaSk the Broy-
hill masquerade of reassurances
to Herndon, Chantilly and
other impacted areas" and
charged they are objective
proof" that past congressional
action is inadequate.
"Mr. Broyhill gave assurances
that the legislation would pro-
vide for the entire area of i'm
pact" he said.
This is now demonstrated to
be clearly false, It is clear and
conceded that Chantilly and the
, area south of the airport are in
the area of impact. Their
omission from the plan puts the
water supply of Alexandria and
South Fairfax in jeopardy"
Mr.. Kaul, whose remarks
were contained in speech pre-
pared for delivery at a luncheon
in Chantilly, also accused Mr.
Broyhill of deceiving Northern
Virginia by saying the sewer
would be ready in 1862.
