A solicitors ordinance passed

Change

The County Council Mon
day evening was told that it
would be yielding to pres
sure groups if it insists in its
efforts to route the school
board budget directly to It's
chambers, rather than first
submitting it for review and
recommendations of a county
manager.
William E. Yost, president Of
the council FOR better education
told the council that it is "it's
absurd that a budget should be
reviewed by part-time people
like you and me. :"
The county council held a
hearing on its plan to receive
budgets directly from the board
of education and be advised or
them by the county manager
At present the county manager
reviews, and adds to or takes
away requests before submit
ting them to the council.
The amendment would chan
mel the school board budget
straight to the council, along
with the budgets of the Park
and Planning Commission ant
the Suburban Sanitary Com
mission-all three of which
would fall into an advisory
class" under the proposed char
ter amendment.
The amendment also would
do away with a charter pro
vision requiring a five two
council vote before raising OF
restoring any manager-recom'
mended budget item. Instead,
such budget hikes would be &C
compIished by only 4-3 vote
The Montgomery County Cir
cult Court, however, held re-

the school boards budget are
part and parcel of charter die
tum and may not be changed
without a referendum vote. The
council has appealed that de-
cision, brought about by a suit
filed by William E. Yost, presi'
dent of the Council for Better
Education.
The Council was backed in its
action for an amendment by
the League Of Women Voters,
the County Council of Parent
Teachers Association, and the
Montgomery County Education
Association. Representatives OF
these groups voiced their sup
port.

lures from tax levies alone.
Public works spending would
gobble up an estimated Al per
cent.
A budget breakdown shows
that Scheiber proposes to spend
$1,070,962 providing services,
$1,172,385 to build new projects
and purchase major equipment,
and $451, 1886 for bonded indebt-
edness.
Scheiber pointed out that the
city's tax rate has dropped
from the 1854 level of 80 GEMS
to the current 72-cent rate.
Since that time, the city's popu-
lation has approximately
doubled while the tax rate re-
manned the same.
Meanwhile, Scheiber said,
Rockville has a combined real
and personal property tax base
of $71,698,740 from which the
city can expect to realize almost
100000 tax yield next budget
year.
The assessed valuation of real
property in the city is $60,389,-
$40 and for personal property,
$11, 100, according to budget
figures.

Reuse
Gets School
Board Okay
Economy Plans for -Four Ne,o
Schools to Effect Sapings in
Architectural Service Costs

Montgomery County's
Board of Education moved
toward a substantial saving
of architects fees this week
by approving reuse of exist
ing plans for the construction
of four new schools
On recommendation of Will
liam H. Sheldon, director of
construction, and with the en-
dorsement of Dr.. c. Taylor
Whittier, superintendent, the
board authorized use of the
plans for the existing Whittier
Woods elementary school, for
construction of the proposed
new Cloverlea and Fernwood
schools, use of the Jackson
Road school plans for construc-
ton of the Meadow Hills school
and use of the Aspen Hill
school design for the new
Brookhaven School.
According TO Sheldon, reuse
Of the plans will entail a saving
Of 2I1 per cent of the fees to
be paid to the architects, who
normally receive six per cent of
the total. construction cost for
preparing new building plans.
The economy move was made
possible, Sheldon said, by the
fact that the topography Of the
new school sites is sufficiently
similar to that of the existing
schools that the plans can be
adapted without extensive al
terations.
The architectural firm of
May and Rupert was selected
to adapt the plans for Cloverlea
and Fernwood and to prepare
new plans for construction of
an addition to the North Chevy
Chase elementary S h o o ].
Arthur Anderson was named as
the architect for Meadow Hills
and Brookhaven, along with adj
ditions to Forest Knobs and
Jackson Road elementaries.,
While approving reuse Of the
four plans, the board APP
proved selection of architects
for Is other new schools or adj
ditlons. They were as follows:

 The desire of the United States of America, and likewise of the United Nations, is that freedom might reign and ring forth over this whole globe. On this World Day of Prayer, Christians should pray for the Prince of Peace to  come again and bring in the true and everlasting peace. Then free dom will ring again for the whole earth.

SANDUSKY, Ohio, lR = Robert Adler, 24, had tonsilitis and was home at Chaska Beach in Huron Monday.
 Lisa O'Connor, 4, and her sis ter, Carol, ', plunged through thin ice into the waters of Lake Erie about 60 feet off the beach.
 Adler's wife, Carol, saw them go down, and called her husband, Huron High School teacher.
 Adler jumped out of bed and crawled over the ice on his stom- ach to reach the girls. He broke through once, but climbed out to grab Lisa, who was in water over her head, and Carol, who was clinging to the edge of the ice.
 The girls were treated for ex- posture and frostbite.
 Adler went back to bed with his tonsilitis.

AlLOgeuner, NOme DOdStS aDOut 125 registered Brownie, Interme- diate and Senior Girl Scouts. This column today is chiefly about the first of these organizations.
 To be Brownie, you must be 2 years old. A girl becomes an Intermediate when she enters the 5th Grade. The Brownies of Troop 76 in Nome are capably led by Mrs. Randy. There are seven 1st and 2nd Graders in this troop. Mrs. Bachelder is the leader of Troop AT, which has four 3rd Graders registered. This is the smallest group in Nome, yet there are three 3rd Grade sections in school,
 Any girl interested in joining this troop is invited to call or see Mrs. Bachelder or Mrs. Potter. This smaller troop is also very interested in acquiring used Brow nie uniforms that anyone could donate.
 The other 3rd Grade Brownies are under the direction of Mrs. Doyle. This group is better filled out, with 10 members. The 5th Grade troop has Mrs. Emmons as leader, and Mrs. Bachelder and Mrs. Coons as assistants. These IA girls will "fly up" to Inter- mediate Scouting this spring.
 Some of the projects that are in progress in the various troops are cooking, sewing doll clothes, and making puppets.
 This coming week (March 6-12) is Girl Scout Week and every girl who owns a uniform is urged to wear it to school. When wear ing the uniform, please wear it correctly. If you have any ques- tions, ask your leader.
 Each day of the Girl Scout Week has special 'extra" for it. The week starts off with Sunday, when every girl will attend their own church - in uniform. Mon day is Homemaking Day, for doing something around the house = cheerfully.
 Tuesday is Citizenship Day, Wednesday Health and Safety Day. Perhaps on this day, you could check your house for fire hazards. Thursday is International Friendship Day. A suggestion is to visit a, member of the commit nifty who was foreign-born, and ask him or her about the "old country"
 Friday will be Arts and Crafts Day, to make or mend something. Saturday will be the Girl Scout Birthday. There will be theater party at Nomerama, for all Girl Scouts at 1O:3O am. The Color Guard for the ceremony will be supplied by the Senior Girl Scouts.
