Summit Hills
Sixth Unit
Is Approved

A county building permit
has been issued to Jerry VOL
man and Max Basilico, of Sill
yer Spring, for construction of
another unit in the multimillion
dollar Summit Hills apartment
projetc at 18th st. and East
West hwy. in Silver Spring.
The building will be the sixth
of eight to be erected in a de-
velopment to be completed at
an eventual cost of about $12.5
million, according to Wolman,
who with Basilico is a co-owner
of the project. The newest unit,
eight stories in height and cost
ing $650,000, will house 124
apartments.
Three buildings, housing $50
apartments, have been COM
pleted, and two more, embrac-
ing $50 units, are under con-
struction. Wolman said the en-
tire project is scheduled for
completion by March of next
year.
A swimming pool, to serve
occupants of all eight buildings,
already has been completed, ac-
cording to Wolman.

Mrs. Kay Rush, of 1922 Alue-

friends that her words need
music.
Some have said ought to
send 1t to Elvis Presley, it's that
type of guitar ballad refrain"
Mrs. Rush said.
Ideally, she'd like to get to-
gether with musician and cut
a record. She feels that she'd
have a sure smash if for no
other reason than her 12-year-
old daughter thinks her poem is
pure mush."
Mrs. Rush, the wife of Ed
ward c. Rush, is employed by
the Federal Life Insurance Cor
poration, Bethesda. Her poems
have been published in news
papers and national magazines
and cover a range of subjects
from Alaska to bowling.

of maintaining men in space for
protracted periods of time. The
algae characteristically liberate
oxygen and absorb and reduce
carbon dioxide. This is the re-
verse process of human respira-
ton where oxygen is con-
sumed and carbon dioxide lib
Grated.
If plants are to be employed
in such a system they will need
to be capable of rapid rates Of
growth and high rates of
oxygen evolution. Furthermore,
they will need to be grown in
very compact apparatus in the
absence of soil and be suscep.
tble to handling in apparatus
more familiar to the chemical
engineer than to traditional
agriculturists.
A second characteristic of
algae has been their remark
ably high nutritive value. Ex-
periments carried on jointly
with the National Institutes of
Health have shown that the
amino acid complement of GER
tain algae is unrivaled among
single sources in its nutritive
value.
DR.. Krauss has emphasized,
however, that our knowledge of
fundamental facts concerning
the algae IS not yet adequate
for a satisfactory evaluation OF
their future role in space
vehicles.
For this reason, the studies
at the University of Maryland
will be directed toward aiding
to our store of information re.
garding the fundamental bio,
chemistry and growth charac'
teristics of a number of select
ed strains of algae rather than
toward the design of apparatus
for possible use in space.

Since 1949, personnel in the
botany department, under the d.

Krauss, professor of plant physi-
ology, have been engaged in
fundamental studies on the
physiology of algae. During this
time, a number of problems
dealing with the nutrition and
maximum growth rates of
many strains of algae have
been under investigation.
These studies have been of
particular interest in recent
years when scientists have been

Terming the present method

Maryland distorted" the
States League of Won n
Voters has announced it's inten-
ton to press for reforms "even
if it takes until 1870"
In statement released by
Mrs. Edward Satterthwaite, of
Annapolis, president, the league
said it was greatly disappoint-
ed that the 1860 Maryland Gen
eral Assembly did not take
favorable action on either the
very mild Walsh Commission
recommendations for reappor-
tioning the House of Delegates,
or on a bill proposing the call
ing of a constitutional conven-
ton"
"Since representation is so
distorted III our state we ndQ
hoped that the General Assem-
bly, would have acted in the in
terests of representative gov
eminent and made some effort
to restore our legislature to a
more balanced basis" the state
ment continued.
"The Senate vote on the pro-
posed constitutional convention
reinforces the argument that
those representing minority
of the States population lin
this case less than 80 per cent?
can enforce their will on the
majority"

McAuliffe also got Leyda to
admit he had given false ex-

turning their Nv sets on time.
II just took on more work than
any one human can accom-
plish," Leyda told the court.
I'm admitting on the stand that
he charged fees for parts he did
not install, Leyda also said his
customers got their moneys
worth in other parts and labor"

liberately choosing a name for
