The annual free series of
rabies vaccinations for dogs in
Montgomery County will be
held Mondays, Wednesdays and
Fridays, now until May 25.
Norman Pennington, super
vising sanitarian for the health
department, emphasized that all
dogs must be vaccinated before
a license can be issued.
Licenses may be purchased
when dogs are vaccinated.
Since the effect of vaccine used
by the health department lasts
only one year, annual booster
doses are necessary for i'm
munization.
Pennington also advised that
persons strong enough to con-
troll dogs should accompany
their pets, although the shots
are relatively painless.
DR.. William J. Peoples, coun-
ty health officer, asserted that
rabies has occurred in only one
dog and a fox in Montgomery
County during the past 10
years. he reason Montgomery
County has been free from
rabies, in spite of its large ami
NAL population, is due to the
feet that very large proper
ton of the dog population has
been vaccinated," DR.. Peoples
said.

SENATOR JACKSON said
there was some talk about

interest Of realism.

MOTEL IN FLORIDA

A Silver Spring Md
business man, who owns a
motel in Marathon on the
Florida Keys, has reported
that his business there was
almost completely wiped
out by Hurricane Donna.
"Only the cement block
shell remains" Bill King,
president of Rex Engrav-
ing Co.. 8045 Newell street,
Silver Spring, told relatives
here.
Mr.. King said it will take
"at least five to 10 years"
to rebuild the community
of Marathon, which is on
Vaca Key, halfway between
Miami and Key West.
Mr.. King said he and
his wife left Marathon last
Friday before the hurricane
hit. He was able to return
by boat yesterday to check
his property.
He estimated damage to
his property would run up
to $250,000. Damage to the
community is estimated in
the millions.

On the Chesapeake Bay side

for Worcester County, said
about 1000 persons were TAX

As Donna Passes By

The block was roped off for
a time because of the odor of
gas. Firemen said the roof over
a one-store section of a five
story building probably gave
way because of water collecting
during the heavy rain.
Because the collapsed section
is in the center of the building,
the cave-in was not noticed for
about two hours. One person
apparently heard the roof give
way about $50 am, but
thought the sound was made
by refuse collectors clanking
cans.
The worst traffic delays were
noted as thousands of North
ern Virginia residents tried to
cross the Potomac River bridges
during rush hour.

dents in the District clogged
