Divide Your Yard into Areas
BY GEORGE z. CREED
Contributing Writer

In a community where prop
erty lines are not marked by
fences, hedges and other
planting there is a general
feeling of spaciouSness and
each mans lot appears larger
than it actually is. Every
one gains under this arrange
ment.
Curiously enough, if your
neighborS all inclose their
front areas, you may leave
yours open and your treat
ment will not seem out of
place. The reverse is not
true. If your neighbor's front
lawns are left open and you
enclose yours, your property
will stick out like a sore
thumb.
One of the most important
areas in any residential
development scheme, though
one often ill-considered, is
Evening star., 1960-02-27

that devoted to service. This
is the area in which garbage
and trash are temporarily
stored, where clothes lines
may be strung out, where
deliveries are made and where
you can wash your car. You
should reserve a specific part
of your property for service
and mark it of from the rest
of your land by appropriate
planting or fencing.
If you are a gardener you
will naturally set aside space
for this activity. The area
will depend on what you want
to grow. If flowers, primarily,
choose conspicuous places
where there is plenty of sun
shine.
If you are a vegetable
gardner. pick out an incon-
spicuous but sunny spot. Be-
cause many vegetables are
Evening star., 1960-02-27

not especially ornamental at
various stages Of their de-
velopment, gardens devoted
to these are best placed to
the rear Of a property where
they are not easily seen.
If you have children, make
provision for them by parti-
tioning of an area for their
use. Youngsters may be more
easily controlled If they have
an interesting enclosed area
Of their own.
A careful division Of areas
should relate to the house
plan. Service should be close
to the kitchen and garage yet
marked of as a separate

ward expansion or activities
Of such associations.
3. A tendency on the part
of many professional people
to want Office space that is
modern, efficient, and en-
doWed with a certain elan, or
prestige.
A lot could be written, no
doubt, about the pSychologi-
cal factors involved in all
this. Why, for example, do
certain Office neighborhoodS
have their day of fashion,
only to give way to still other
areas? Why do certain build
ingS contribute their own spe-
cial aura as status symbols?
Whatever the answers, it's
an intriguing study that has
many facets. some of them
based on the vagarieS of hu-
man nature but many in
volved in the mysteriously
grand design of the economy
itself.
In recent years, quite a few
areas in downtown Washing
ton have emerged as centerS
for new of11ce-building con-
struction. Fashions in build
ing sites can shift somewhat
like fashions in ladies' hats.
One big difference is that
interest in Office building
neighborhoods shifts more
ponderously, more slowly and
lugubriouSly. To watch a
trend develop can be a fas-
cinating business, especially
If you own some land in the
path Of the boom.
Evening star., 1960-02-27

The Iirst step in planning
q layout for property is to
divide it into areas according
to their use.
The space between the front
Of the house and the street
is sometimes referred to as
the public area, because it is
open to public view. How
much ground you allocate
here depends on how you in
tend to develop it. To keep
it open or to close it in is a
matter of individual choice.
Usually, in a neighborhood
with open front lawns, only
a rugged individualiSt will go
against established practice.

area. Public and private areas
should be well defined and so
developed.

He said that advocates of
such a system "delude them
selves" with a myth" if they
think that classification rat
ings would be objective, ac-
curate and authoritative"
"How could such a blanket
assumption be warranted in
our highly pluralistic So
ciety?" he asked.
Under questioning by sub
committee members, howev-
er, Mr.. Johnston conceded
that the Motion Picture Asso-
citation acts substantially in
the role Of a censor through
its Motion Picture Code gov
erning moral questions in
films.
He STRESSED, though, that
cooperation with the code is
purely voluntary, and that
producers remain free to dis
tribute their films even if they
are denied the code seal of
approval.
The application Of the code
in the case of specific films
was taken up by
members, who were especially
curious about the recently re-
leased Hollywood film, Sud
denly, Last Summer"
The movie was placed in a
Especial classification" by the
National Legion of Decency,
which commented that it is
''moral in its theme and treat
ment," but intended only for
a serious and mature audi
ence" because sits subject
matter involves perversion."
The legion also charged
that the Production Code au-
thority violated "its general
principles" by approving the
film, since the code states that
'sex perversion or any infer
ence of it is forbidden"
Mr.. JOHNSTON conceded
that "you can read homosex-
uality into Ghe moyie) if you
wish if your mind goes

But No Laws Needed2

THE MPA presidents APP
pearance marked the start of
a series of hearings by the
Postal Operations Subcom-
mittee headed by Rep. Kath-
ryn E. Granular Of Pennsyl-
vania.
THE SAME sUBcoMMIT.
TEE last year held hearings
on mail order obscenity, and
originated legislation, passed
by the House and now pend
ing before the Senate, to
streamline Post Office Depart
ment procedures in dealing
with pornography.
Rep. Granular declared in
her opening statement that
there is an evident trend to-
ward lowered moral princi-
plies and the o~ver-dramatiza-
ton of sex in some motion
pictures, magazines and
books"
SHE SAID SHE does not adj
vocate Federal censorship of
movies. However" she add
ed, 1--WE do strongly advocate
an effective self-regulatioI of
all movies shown on the
screens of America This
should include foreign films
shown in the United States.
There are many of us who
feel that certain pictures be-
ing shown today, while per-
haps not obscene in the full
sense of the word, are degrad-
ing and Objectionable" she
said. She appealed to Mr..
Johnston and members of the
Motion Picture Association to
cooperate to offer suggestions
on how such "borderllne"
films can be controlled with
out infringing on legitimate
freedoms.
DESPITE REPEATED as
surances by Mrs. Grananhan
and other sub : committee
members that the hearings
were not being held to draft
censorship legislation, Mr..
Johnston repeatedly returned
to the censorship theme in
his prepared testimony and
his replies to questions.
He was particularly vehe-
ment in opposing any system
of film classification, whereby
movies would be labeled suit
able or unsuitable for chill
dren.
SUCH A SYSTEM "when
stripped down to the bone, is
censorship, just plain govern
mental censorship" he as
serted.
