County Jury
Hits Tuvern
License Law

A recommendation that the
Maryland Legislature eliminate
"the present method of the sale
and transfer of alcoholic bev-
erage licenses from one person
to another" was made today by
a Prince Georges County grand
jury.
In a report on various aspects
of county administration, the
panels final report labeled
conditions generally good" but
made four specific proposals.
The comment on alcoholic
beverage licenses refers to regu-
lations which provide that such
licenses be issued for a small
fee, with a ceiling Of slightly
over 100 tavern permits for the
entire county.
The owner Of a liquor license
may sell the permit and apply
to the liquor board for transfer
to the new owner. Prices for
licenses thus transferred have
been known to 60 as high as
$40, 900.
Other recommendations of
the grand jury included:
1. Immediate construction of
improved flre-escape facilities
at the county almshouse and
construction of a new building
as soon as possible.
2. Support of recommends
tions of the previous grand
jury on regulating the home
improvement business to pro-
tect the public.

out a scream, but the bear just
stood there"

stood there.
Then, she said, some other

tance and watched, Miss Nc

Il quickly crawled from the
sleeping bag, rolled it and

Glasses Plan

The Montgomery County
Board Of Education will begin
an experiment In non-graded
primary classes within the next
two years.
Board members, meeting yes
terday in Rockville, heard a
report by James C. Craig, di-
rector Of elementary education,
analyzing so other school sys-
TENS that use the ungraded pri-
mary program. After discussion,
Mr.. Craig was directed to pro-
ceed with a similar project "as
soon as possible"
The procedure abolishing
separated grades in the first
two or three years of school
was described as "a flexible
type Of program which recog-
nizeS the individual differences
In a child's rate of growth and
development" MIR. Craig ex-
planned.
His report declared that the
ungraded primary plan also
eliminates many childhood
fears and Illustrations that ac-
company failure in early school
years, and promotes reading
achievement by more flexible
grouping.
Fairfax Uses Plan
The plan of eliminating
grades already is being used
in Fairfax County schools this
year, Mr.. Craig told the board.
School Supt. C. Taylor Whit
tier recommended that the
board reduce the average size
of kindergarten classes from
their present 40 students to 80
pupllS per class.
A total of about IS addi-
tional rooms would be required
to fulflll the Superintendent's
aim, he said.
Board Member Helen Scharf
described the reduction in class
size as necessary for the proper
use of kindergartens, which
would allow teachers to antici-
pate learning difficulties and
diminish the need for expen-
sive remedial classes in later
grades"
Wait for Facilities
The school board agreed to
bring about the reduction "as
soon as physically possible. +"
The only dissenting vote came
from William Thomas, who
suggested that improvements
in the kindergarten should be
postponed until the indefinite
future instead of being given
top priority in next years
budget.
In other business, the board
gave enthusiastic approval to
plans for a completely air.
conditioned high school, with
a radically new construction
design. for the Kensington-
Wheaton area.
! Loren L. Murray, architect,
/ submitted plans for a $2.9
million building which would
permit a future addition at
considerably less cost than is
possible with conventional de-
signs.
+ The Kensington Wheaton
High School would be built in
two stages. The first would
be a square structure built
around a courtyard. The addi-
ton. considered inevitable in

Inasmuch as the 1860 SWIM

action will not be apparent

Ann Brown, chairman Of the
commission, which was ap-
pointed several months ago by
the council to investigate dis
criminatory practices in Mont

In other business, the coun-
Gil revived a long discussed
plan for a housing code in the
Metropolitan areas highest
income county. 1t authorized
Mr.. Butcher to make d survey
of present conditions to de-
termine the extent of SUBJ
standard homes.
DR.. william j Peoples,
county health of1cer. told the
council that the last census
shows that there are $1,000
residences in Montgomery, but
how many are substandard we
have no idea"
DR.. Peoples emphasized that
there is a need for community
education before a housing Or
dinance actually can be passed.
He suggested that a committee
be appointed to study the
matter.
Legal Factors Checked
The county attorneys Of
flee reported that its staff al
ready has looked into the legal
aspects and has been collecting
codes from other localities for
the last year, in anticipation of
developing housing standards
in Montgomery.
DR.. Peoples pointed out that
Prince Georges County is con-
Sidering passing such regula-
tionS, which would authorize
punishment for overcrowding,
sewage and construction vio-
lationS.
The plan, approved by the
council, could be brought into
