In Rockville
Teen Center
'Ro,odyisn,'
Is Debated
By Joan Stern
Sentinel Correspondent

Charges of rowdyism at

and a program lacking any
intellectual scope were lev

took over the council seats

cause they were repealed by

drinking on the center grounds
as two reasons his friends pre-
ferred to congregate at the Ii.
brary.
His charges brought immedi.
ate rebuttal from members Of

which appeared to report on the
center's progress.
Barbara Bean, president of

talk of rowdiness at the center
as "unfounded rumor." Other
members rose to say they felt
the center was running smooth

ments.

land insisted any drinking prob
lens encountered at the center
were caused by youths who
were not members of the center
and did not even come from
Rockville.
Mayor Alexander J. Greene,
in response to Wright's charge
that the center lacked a pro-
gram offering intellectual slim
illus, suggested the youths out
line a plan enlarging the pro-
gram to include clubs and activ-
tiles which would broaden the
present program.
Greene said that his few sneak
visits to the center showed him
