Six title insurance companies
have asked a Circuit Court
judge in Montgomery County
to reject the county bar as
sociation as plaintiff in a suit
against the companies.
At issue is a request by the

ton to stop the title companies
from performing services the
local lawyers think they should
handle.
The county bar group thinks
its members, rather than the
companies, should prepare
deeds, render opinions on titles.

sales contracts and effect
settlements.
When the companies do
these things, the bar associa-
ton claims, it constitutes the
unauthorized practice of law.
Ten attorneys-six for the
companies and four for the
lawyers group-argued for al
most four hours yesterday.
Millions Involved
Attorneys for the title COM
panies contended the associa-
tion, a private corporation
which does no legal work itself,
was not qualified to question
the companies activities in
court.

the associations legal team.
said, Lets face it, we certainly
have some interest in this.
These are operations of the
defendant (companies) that in
volve millions and millions of
dollars"
He said these and other title
companies have been chipping
away" at the business of local
lawyers for years.
Named as defendants in the
suit are District Title Insurance

ance Co., Realty Title Insur-
ance Co.. Inc; Lawyers Title
Insurance Corp. of Richmond
and Suburban Title g. Invest

Thomas S. Jackson, who rep
resented four of the companies,
said he thought it was unfair
for the companies to have to
defend against a suit brought
by the local bar association.
Prejudice Trend Seen
Noting that local counsel
for the companies had been
hard to find and that all the
Montgomery County Circuit
court judges had disqualified
themselves, he claimed that
the fact the bar association

New boats need shaking down.
If bugs develop they can be
dumped on the dealers door
step before you're far away.
At 1,500 r.p.m.s, the maxi
mum allowed for the first five
hours, our Gray burned almost
no gas. At $500, tops for the
next FIVE hours, consumption
was almost as economical. In
fact, in nine hours running
time, we consumed only II gal
Ions, a small amount for a
cruiser.
Has Planning Hull
Now Ladyfish has a planning
hull of plywood lapstrake con-
struction. At $500 to 2.700
r.pm.'s she planes, and this
point, where water resistance is
least, should be our cruising
speed.
Above that economy goes out
the twin exhausts and she
starts wasting gas. Finding your
range of economical operation
applies to all innboards.
Trouble was, we started for
the new Aqua-Land Yacht Club
just this side of the bridge with
the 1900 to 2,500-r.p.m. con-
sumption of gas as a guide. AL
though we knew she would burn
more when turned up, we made
a big mistake.
With $500 as the prescribed
maximum for the next 10 hours,
we liked the wind in our teeth
and sped along at 5000, throw
ing UP spray and exchanging
hand waves with the boats we
passed.
Along on the trip was Frank
Fragale, secretary of Corinthian
Yacht Club, our starting point,
and our young son, Phil, who
shouted off the chart readings
and compass courses.
We had left with less than
three-quarterS of a tank of
gas-plenty, we thought.
At Marshall Hall the gauge
read half full, at Quantico,
three-eighthS.
Almost Out Of Gas
Just above Aqua Greek it
read one-quarter and above
Nanjemoy Greek, one eighth.
Still there were several miles
to go.
About this time we glanced
at Frank. Hadn't we better
pull in somewhere for gas?"
Don't know Of any," he re-
piled cheerfully.
OF the Port Tobacco River
the tank registered just shade
above empty, but we could see
the bridge in the afternoon
haze and ploughed ahead.
Finally the tank registered
completely empty and our tar
get still was a couple of miles
off.
Although we would have
liked to have headed straight
for it, we. were conscious of a
couple of tankers coming down
the channel behind us. So we
pulled close to shore should
we start drifting and kept 60
ing.
Luck was with us. There was
some sort of reserve. On the
bounce of a wave Just off the
bulkheaded entrance to the
marina the motor coughed but
