LURAY, Va, June 4.-Re-
publicanS of the Seventh Con-
gressional District this after
noon failed to come up with a
candidate to oppose Burr P,
Harrison, veteran Democratic
representative of Winchester,
in November.
At a District convention this
afternoon the G. o. P. elected
Julian K. Hickman of Harris
onburg as district chairman,
The 48-year-old attorney was
appointed district chairman
last February to fill the unex-
pired term of A. r. Dunning
of Frederick County, who re-
signed.
Inability of the convention
nominating committee to find
a suitable and willing candi-
date for Congress stirred the
days only controversy.
Miller Stymied
!, Ray Miller of Strasburg
said, "If we can't get a good
man to run. I am in favor OF
passing it over until the next
term. A lot of our people have
been voting for Harrison and
Democratic Senator) Byrd and
that makes for a bad situation
If we can get Harrison out OF
Office and into something else
we will have a break"

"As far as getting a good
nights sleep is concerned, the
police have been to my property
SO times in the past three
weeks. There is not one re-
port in SO which indicates
there was loud or raucous
noise"
Mr.. Levine also displayed
letters from four people living
or working near his business
who said they had not been
bothered by noise or lights.
When the hearing finally
subSided, board member Ralph
Kaul proposed a zoing amend
ment which would equip the
county with new controls over
miniature golf courses.
"And ZOOS" Mr.. Brown
added.
The board unanimously di-
rected the planning department
and county manager to recon-
mend an amendment which
would require specific use per-
mits for miniature golf courses,
ZOOS and possibly other busi-
neSSSeS.
Mr.. Brown emphasized that
the board expects that existing
ordinances governing noise and
nuisances be strictly enfort ed.
Mr.. Levine said he will ~hield
his lights and comply with any
legal order from the county
manager.

Service Station
Gas Explosion
Iniures Two

Two persons were slightly in
jured last night when an auto
mobile gasoline tank exploded
at a service station operated by
the Blue Bird Cab Co. at 1894
Baltimore boulevard, Hyatts-
vile, firemen reported.
Buddy Collins, 81, Of 4108
Emerson street, Hyattsville, re-
ceived a sprained right ankle
when he jumped out a rear
window Of the Sinclair service
station to escape the gasoline
flames.
Rita J. Peters, of ALA Gala
tin street, HyattSville, suffered
from shock when she was
thrown or fell from a car
parked near the gasoline tanks,
firemen said.
Firemen were unable to say
why the cars gasoline tank
exploded. The driver started
the motor after the tank had
been filed.
The explosion, which COM
pletely destroyed the car,
Scorehed the front of the build
ing and badly damaged the
gasoline pumps, f1remen said.

Member Lee Urbanske sug-
gested the businessman leave,
and the usually imperturbable
b ard chairman, Herbert
Brown, repeatedly banged his
gavel and muttered, I'm trying
hard to keep patient"
The colorful center Of the
uproarious controversy was
Mario's Miniature Golf Course
at 1922 Wilson boulevard,
owned by Howard DeLevine.
Noise Protested
Sixteen residents protested
that lights and loud speaker
noises emanating from the golf
course as late as 2 am. have
made life in their neighborhood
insufferable.
"It also maintains an ape, 4"
complained Gerald Greenwald.
"It has ducks which quack
and a parrot which of course
exercises his prerogative and
speaks whenever he wants and
is no respecter of the hour"
DR.. John T. Hazel declared
that noise from the golf course
has been so voluminous that he
cannot practice or use a stetho-
scope in his nearby office.
Mrs. Mabel Herweg said,
"they blow into the loud
speaker and talk to the parrot
over it. It's horrible.
"HearSay" Owner Says
Golf course owner Levine,
charged that he was being vii
lifted and that those making
the charges have been "incited
and duped."

Another reason is ever con-

There are now 900 persons
living within the 427 square
miles served by the WSSC.
The population is expected to
double within the next 80 to
40 years.
The increased population will
also tax another major WSSC
operation: Construction and

sewer system.

ing itself out Of the sewage
treatment business.
By the END or the year, the
commission, which is striving
to eliminate pollution of sub
urban streams, will be operat-
ing only one of the three treat
ment plants it is now using.
Spokesman said the Com
mission plans to continue use
of its Parkway plant near Lau-
rel. This unit, completed last
year at a cost of SIG million,
can now serve a population of
10000. The plant, which dis
charges treated eff1uent into
the Patuxent river. can be en-
larged to serve 10000.
One of the other two plants,
the Greenbelt treatment CEN
ter, will be turned over to the
town.
The Gaithersburg treatment
plant, which now discharges
treated waste into Muddy
Branch, will be replaced by a
new trunk sewer and aban-
doned.
Development Follows Sewers
Construction of new trunk
sewers, perhaps more than any
other WSSC activity, is of in
terest to suburban Maryland
governing bodies.
The reason is that develop
ment follows new sewer lines.
One major project, tn e
Northwest Branch sewer, has
been shelved because the
Montgomery County Council
wants to have a master plan
for the area before permitting
more development.
Sewer projects planned by
the WSSC in the near future
would serve portions of Henson
Greek, Bladensburg, b entwood,
Indian Greek, Laurel, Paint
Branch, Little Paint Branch
and Rock Greek. These projects
will be additions to a sewer
system that already includes
1,400 miles of pipe. Officials,
who face daily headaches in
keeping all this functioning,
said they received 1900 service
complaints last year. WSSC
sewers reach 10000 homes.
A new invention is helping
workers keep the miles of pipe
open. This is a closed circuit
television camera that can be
pulled through the pipes to
spot leaks or other trouble.

In the rolling hills of Mont
gomery County a huge new fl
tration plant is nearing COM
pletion that will provide Po-
tomac River water for custom
ers of the Washington Suburban
Sanitary Commission for the
first time.
The $12 million facility,
under construction near Watts
Branch about three miles west
of Potomac, Md, is scheduled
to open in late September or
early october.
WSSC officials showed the
new installation to reporters
FRIDAY as the final item of a
96-mile, day-long bus tour Of
the Commissions widespread
network of services facilities.
80 Million Gallons a Day
The new plant, they said, will
be able to provide 80 million
gallons of water a day. A maze
of treatment equipment will
insure that the final product is
as pure as the water found in
most mountain streams.
After months of blasting and
burrowing, the big plant is
taking shape. Twin 60-inch
pipes will take water from the
river. The channel was re-
routed to serve the intakes.
A pumping station will lift
the river water up a 50-foot
cliff to the treatment plant
There it will be chlorinated
filtered and tested for taste
and purity.
A g. million gallon covered
reservoir also has been built
1t now looks, except for rows
of ghost-like roof supports, like

Plant is Only a Start
The treatment plant, massive
as it is, will be only a start
The WSSC already is planning
a SIT million improvement pro-
gram to increase the plants
daily capacity to 100 million
gallons by 1890.
Included in the initial pro-
ject are pipelines to carry the
water to fast-growing suburban
areas. A 22-inch line will reach
10 miles to Wheaton. A 32-
inch, 12-mile pipe will arc
through Gaithersburg and Nor
beck.
When the entire plant is
completed in 80 years, WSSC
officials said it will supply all
of Montgomery County and one
third of the area in Prince
Georges County that is served
by the Commission.
At the present time, the
WSSC supplies about so million
gallons a day to suburban users
from its water filtration plant
near Laurel. Water for this
facility comes from the Patux-
ent River, where dams al
Rocky Gorge and Brighton i'm
pound over 13 billion gallons ir
two reservoirs.
Other Facilities Operated
Other WSSC facilities fol
providing water include a series
of wells in Lower Prince
Georges County and a filtration
plant at Burnt Mills that is
used only during peak summer
months.
Commission spokesman said
that during the past year
however, water needs exceeded
their 80 million gallon maxi
mum daily capacity three
times. This is one reason for
