TENDER IL despite the assertion
by Rear Adm. G.. Roy Hartwig
that the federal government
would provide an estimated
SOC, 1000 required to convert nor
NAL classrooms to fallout shell
ter standards.
According to Civil Defense
officials, the underground class
rooms would accommodate 35
pupils each for normal use, but
in the event of emergency, the
four-room unit could be used as
a shelter for 500 persons.
However, lack of specific de-
tails and concern about main
tenance costs apparently deter
red board members from taking
action on the plan. Instead,
they asked Admiral Hartwig to
seek funds from the County
Council for the preparation of
preliminary drawings.
Board Member Robert Nor
row said he didn't think the
matter had been thought
through" and said he was re-
luctant to authorize expendi-
ture of school funds for the
project until more information
was available.
DR.. Clifford X. Beck, a physi-
cist and radiation hazard expert
with the Atomic Energy Com
mission, said he thought the
proposal was "unrealistic" in it's
present form.
According to Civil Defense
officials, the proposed Mont
gomery County installation
would be one of three pilot"
projects planned in varying sec.
tons of the nation.

City Planners
Iron Out All
Differences

Rockville Officials have ironed
out all major differences be-
tween the city's proposed mas
ter plan and the Park and
Planning Commissions recon-
mendations for the area.
City Planning Director Bruce
Watts and Rockville Planning
Commission Chairman John D.
McElroy made this plain at the
county councils meeting Tues
day.
They expressed their assur-
ances in response to a query by
Councilman David L. Cahoon,
who recalled that the Park and
Planning Commission had COM
planned some of the city's plan.
ming suggestions conflicted with
those of the planning agency.
"All major problems have
been discussed with the Park
and Planning Commission" the
two city officials asserted, "and
have been resolved"
At the same time, however,
Watts expressed concern over
the impact on the plan of any
future county development.
II don't know what plans you
have for placing any county ia
cilities in the CITY," he declared.
Council members said the
amount of land reserved in the
plan for future county construc.
ton appeared to be adequate.

County Manager Mason A.

Tuesday that 3,240 strays were
collected from June 1 to No
vember 1, 1859. This compares
with 2,521 picked up during the
six-month period prior to adop-
ton of the ordinance.
Butcher also reported receipt
of 30 letters from residents call
ing for a more stringent dog
control law, and four Directing
to the present ordinance.
Two weeks ago, two blind
women accompanied by seeing.
eye dogs urged the council to
adopt a leash law. They con-
tended the present ordinance,
which merely requires dogs to
be under control" of their own
ers, is ineffective. They added
they have been attacked re-
peatedly by dogs running at
large.
County officials are studying
the operation of the ordinance
to determine whether it needs

Ewbank Says
Co|tsWi|IGain,
Win or>Lose

WESTMINSTER. Nd, Aug.
10 AP).-Coach Weeb Ewbank
Of the Baltimore Colts believes
his team will gain whether it
wins or loses to the College ALI
Stars Friday night at Soldier
Field in Chicago.
The coach of the World
Champion Colts said yesterday,
I'VE have prestige to gain and
the loss of face If we lose. But
if we lose. not all Is lost.
1T might be the salvation OF
our club" Ewbank said. "the
kind Of tonic it would need to
realize that football games are
won on the f1eld-not with rep
utations-for after all our goal
is a third championship"
But I think our squad has
been through that up and down
period enough to avoid the
down feeling. Let's hope so
anyway" Ewbank said.
The Colts coach thinks OBJ
servers are overlooking some
strong points of the collegians
"They have a weighty squad,
probably heavier than other
All-Star squads" Ewbank said
Il know; I handled some OF
them and was the rival coach
OF others in the Senior Bowl
game at Mobile, Ala, last jan
uary."
He added. Another thing
people are overlooking is that
Otto Graham has a small
squad. which instead OF being
a detriment is a blessing.
He and his coaches can
work closer with his squad
than ever before. In past years
there were so many top play
ers on the All-Star squad a
coach didn't know where to
begin" Ewbank said.
