Originality OF Designs

The awards for the best Christ
mas decorations at the Milford
Memorial Hospital were received
by the following departments:
For originality, Laboratory; for
beauty, Third Floor Nursing Sta
ton; for spirit, Pediatrics Depart
ment.
The judges, Rev. Edward Kuhl-

an exceedingly difficult one. All
departments entering the compe-
tition had done an exceptional
piece of work in all three cate
gories. 1t can safely be said that
all departments would desire hon.
orable mention, as it was virtually
impossible to do more than Sc

was most apparent and is to be
highly commended.

FREDERICK SBURG, Va,
July % (AP).-A minimum
State salary scale for teachers,
starting at $4,000, was urged

for the $4,000 beginning.

Restraint Urged
On Water Use

Residents in the central and
southern sections Of Prince
Georges County are asked to
curb unnecessary use of water
as long as the current dry spell
continues.
The conservation plea came
today from the Washington
Suburban Sanitary Commission
The agency hopes to avoid an
occurrence of two weeks age
when many residents had little
or no water during peak con-
sumption periods.
The commission has the
water, but it does not have
enough mains to keep two
reservoir tanks full on Hill road
near Suitland, during hours o1
heavy use. These are 7 to 9 am
and 4 to 9 pm. Unnecessary
water uses include lawn water

Enacted instead was a $4,000
to $4,000 scale for next year.
A score of suggested aims
for the associations centennial
in 1868 were compiled from
discussion groups Saturday and
summarized by Mr.. Williams.
They included goals for
higher teacher standards, sab
batical leaves after five years,
added pay for graduate work
beyond a masters degree and
full retirement after 80 years
service.
A commemorative stamp, a
teachers insignia, Special
scholarships and a "VEA edu-
cation day" were mentioned
also as centennial aims.
Mr.. Williams said all the
groups favored renewing YEAS
call for three-day emergency
leave allowances for teachers,
and most backed the 1860 goal
of 10 days sick leave a year,
cumulative to 80 days. Many
called for more equitable dis
