After some discussion, it was
the consensus that a person
technically could not be found

effect, had thrown himself on

When Judge Anderson re-
turned to Rockville, he got in

Welsh in turn told the Judge
that he would renew the pro-

month, he added.
In previous cases involving
physicians who served prison
terms for offenses to which
they pleaded nolo contendere,
they were permitted to continue
practicing after serving their
terms.

RevisiOns


Several possible county
charter changes-including
broadened powers for the
president of the County
Council-were outlined this
week by an American Uni
versity professor of govern
ment.
Prof. Royce Hanson, speak
ing to the County League of
Women Voters in Chevy Chase,
proposed also the creation of a
special administrative agency
to conduct public hearings.
He said, however, that his
suggestions were offered not as
specific recommendations for
Montgomery County, but as a
means of stimulating construc-
tive approaches to improving
the council-manager form of
government.
Under his proposal, the COun.
ell president would be "the ac-
m0wledged leader of his
party" elected for the life Of
the Council on a full or nearly
fulI-time basis.
The president, Hanson said,
should be "the spokesman of
the county politically respon-
sible to the Council and to the
electorate"

C.. S. Butler Is I'd
In Reader Contest

While The Sentinel arrives in
his mailbox every Thursday
morning at about 10 o'clock
these days, it wasn't always so
prompt, Charles S. Butler re-
called the other day.
When he was a boy on his
parents farm near Edwards
Ferry, close to Poolesville, the
Sentinel and all the Buffers mail
was delivered by horseback.
But that was 90 years ago.
Although Mr.. Butler, who re-
ceived $40 as prize winner OF
the Sentiners longest reader
contest" preferred the home
spun Sentinel Of those days, he
admits he "gets a heck of lot
more news" from today's vastly
larger newspaper.
Mr.. Buffers failing sight re-
quires that his son, George r.
Butler, of Poolesville, or his
daughter-in-law read the Sen
tinel to him aloud. A farmer
all his life, Mr.. Butler cares
most about agricultural news.
The thing that looms largest
in his memories OF the Sentinel
Of the past was the newspapers
coVerage Of the old Rockville
Fair that was held annually on
the grounds now occupied In
part by Richard Montgomery

Those were the days when the
Fair was highlighted by fiat
horse racing and when scores
OF families came to the county
seat in wagons and buggies
loaded with hams and preserved
vegetables to be consumed dur.
ing a stay Of several days.
Mr.. Butler figures that he has
been reading The Sentinel for
"a years. Miss Mary Waters,
81, of Rockville, who has read
the newspaper more than IS
years, received first prize.

Seneca
Okayed
Would Become
One of Largest
Maryland Parks

Development of a 1850
acre State park at Seneca,
Montgomery County, was
all but clinched last week
when Gov. J. Millard Tawes
approved $15O,OO0 for the
park in his supplemental
capital Improvements budg-
ct.
Joseph F. Kaylor, director
of the Department of Forest
and Parks, expressed conf.
dence the budget item would
not be cut by the General As
sembly.
His conviction was reinforced
by the fact that State Sen. Ed
ward S. Northrop, of Montgom-
cry County, Is chairman of the
Influential Senate Finance Com
mittee, and fellow countian
Blair Lee III is ranking mem
Der of the House Ways and
Means Committee.
Should the Department Of
Forests and Parks succeed in
its plans for the Seneca park,
IL would be among the States
largest and certainly among
the biggest In Western Mary
land.
Kaylor said his agency wants
to buy 1000 acres with the
S150,000. This breaks down to
an average of $3.50 an acre OF
forest land, compared to the
$4500 an acre being paid for
some land in the growing
Wheaton Regional Park.
The State agency already
owns 255 acres at Seneca and
hopes to construct an entrance
road, have electricity and water
in this portion Of the park in
time for recreational use this
summer, Kaylor said.
Newly acquired land win
round out the existing acreage
south from Germantown down
to Long Branch Draft. Among
its many uses, including picnic
sites and camping grounds for
families and individuals, the
park will have facilities for
supervised group recreation.
Among those groups, Kaylor
said, will be children under the
Jurisdictions Of the Juvenile
Court and other welfare agen-
cies In the county. KayIor
called group recreation sites
"preventOrlums," or places
where underprivileged children
could use time otherwise un-
occupied - idle time during
which some children could get
into trouble on city streets, he
said.
II the land money emerges
unscathed from the Legislature,
Kaylor could put 1t to work
starting in July, he said.
1--WE could expect to acquire
all the land this money could
buy up by the end Of this year"
he said.
Inclusion Of the funds in ne
Governors budget came after
the County Council strongly en-
dorsed new land for Seneca
State Park. Council endorse
ment followed an appearance
by a parks and recreation com
mittee, headed by Frank Bliss,
that gave top priority to an en-.
larged Seneca park.

is expected to be named acting
manager until a new man is
chosen.
First inkling that Reese might
leave came in the Miami press
a week ago. Never a man to
show his cards in advance,
Reese remained tight-lipped on
the development.
Even when he submitted a
tersely written letter of resig-
nation, Reese said only that he
was resigning "in the best in
terests of all parties concerned"
There was no hint of health
reasons, dissatisfaction, or other
elements sometimes attached to
such sudden leave taking.
Before he made his intent to
resign public, Reese closeted
himself with councilmen for
more than a half-hour. 1t could
not be learned whether the
council offered Reese induce
ments to stay, but a salary in
crease would seem unlikely in
asmuch as Reese-among the
top paid public officials in Mary
land-got pay raise from
$4,000 to $4,000 in July, 1858.
Although no Miami salary has
been announced. newspapermen
from that resort city are betting
Reese will get $22,500 plus a
tax-free $500 a year for ex-
penses. Reese had no comments
on his salary or on other ques.
tons put to him by reporters
after his resignation.
Reese will step into an en-
vironment vastly different from
white colIared Montgomery
County and It's thousands of
Government and other office
workers. Miami's similarity to
Montgomery just about stops
with It's comparative population
Of $4,000. Montgomery has
about 1856, 900.
Whereas Montgomery County
has a very high percentage of
young adults, with medium in
come of $1,000 a year, Miami is
a resort city, dependent to a
large extent on tourists dollars
and with a cihzenry consider
ably older. 1t also has large
population of Cubans n d
Puerto Ricans who contribute
heavily toward one of the city's
major headaches: lille g a |
"bolita," a Cuban lottery.
Reese will leave behind him a
remarkable record of staying
one jump ahead Of the suburban
exodus into Montgomery Coun-
ty. When he took office Ash
Wednesday, 1855 (his resigna-
ton was submitted Shrove Tues
day., he faced a school popula-
ton of 47,789 (now 10000; a
total population Of 255,000 (now
365,000); an overall budget of
SAB million tnow about $50
million); and an assessable tax
base of 1856 million (now an
astronomical $1.1 billion.

At the exact scheduled take

The loud hiss outside has now
developed into hurricane,like
roar. We have to raise our
voices to converse. The runway

faster and faster as we take

almost unbelievable surges of
forward power. Now the lights

We are airborne.
I was to learn later from
