79 Pupils Fly Tonight
lnFrench Culture Quest

Seventy-nine Arlington high
school students. already versed
in Partisan protocol and armed
with Army instructions, fly
away tonight to immerse them
selves in French culture.
According to the teacher who
conceived the tour of France,
the pupils may not need the
airplane that has been char
tered for them.
They're all so excited they're
just about ready to walk on
air." Mrs. Frances Waters said.
The unprecedented field trip
has produced as much publicity
in Paris as in the United States,
the teacher reported.
Everybody over there from
top to bottom thinks this is a
wonderful idea," she said.
They're impressed and
pleased that American high
school students are so inter-
ested in France that they want
to come and study it first
hand"
Preparations for the nine-day
excursion have forced Mrs.
Waters to become an expert on
some subjects with which she
does not ordinarily deal.
One boy called her last night
to inquire If he would need
special shaving cream for the
journey. But Army experts on
France have helped answer
many questions.
The pupils of French classes
at WaShington-Lee and Wake
field High Schools have re-
ceived the same orientation lee
lures and seen some of the
same films shown to troops
departing for France.
Other authorities have lee
tured the teen-agers about
Partisan styles and protocol
they should follow at a recep-
ton planned by the American
Embassy.

By JOHN BARRON
Star Stan Writer

Arlington, the second small
est county in the United States
has made a deal with the second
smallest country in the world.
The imminent birth of a baby
inspired the negotiations. AS
BELTS the size of the negotia-
tors, the agreement concluded
is a small one. In fact, it in
wolves the concession of only
8 feet by Arlington.
The deal was with San
Marino, a 1,600-year-old nation
of $4,000 people in the Ital-
ian Apennine Mountains, which
maintains a consulate in Ar
lington. With 80 square miles
San Marino is larger than
Monaco'S 6/10 of one square
mile.
In 1858, the State Depart
ment recognized DR.. Franco
Fiorio as the story-book repub-
lies Consul-General for "the
District of Columbia. Delaware,
Kentucky, Maryland, North
Carolina, South Carolina, Ten
nessee, Virginia and West Vir-
ginia."
"Oldest Republic"
But DR.. Fiorio explained to
the Arlington County govern
ment. San Marino, being the
Oldest and smallest independ-
ent republic of the world, does
not have the means to set up a
separate consulate"
So the consulate of San Ma
rino has been confined to one
small room in the Fiorio home
at 5000 North Nelson street.
But when DR.. and Mrs. Flo
rio learned that their fourth
child is on. the way, they de-

cided that the consulate would
have to go elsewhere.
They concluded that a good
place would be their porch.
But consulates being what they
are these days, they figured
they should expand and en-
close the porch so they could
receive fellow diplomats with
the dignity that open air,
especially in the winter, might
not afford.
Violated ZOning
After drawing plans for the
new consulate, they discovered
it would lie within % feet of
the street. County coming reg
ulationS specify that no part
of the house may be less than
rs feet from the street.
DR.. Fiorio pleaded his plight
and that of San Marino before
the Arlington Board Of Zoning
Appeals.
1t told DR.. Fiorio that, the
ordinance Notwithstanding, he
could proceed.
New Question Raised
However, Arlington officials
today started a legal study of
whether the consulate violates
coming laws by being where it is.
William Kennedy, coming
administrator, said Offices are
not permitted in residential
zones. Unless DR.. Florio can
invoke some type of diplomatic
immunity, he said. the envoy
envoy may be forced to close
down the consulate.
Mr.. Kennedy said he has
asked Commemorative Attor-
ney William j. Hassan to see
whether diplomatic immunity
applies. He said he acted after
complaints by neighbors.

Cove-In in Alexandra
Prompts Well Warning

An Alexandria couple learned
yesterday their seven small
children had been playing since
August near a dangerous aban-
doned well hidden beneath de-
caying logs.
It caved in yesterday.
The incident prompted Fire
Inspector M. R. Gray to warn
residents in Alexandria's more
sparsely developed western sec
tion that abandoned wells may
be located on their property.
The 35-foot-deep well which
caved in yesterday was in a
side yard at the home of Maj.
and Mrs. Henry L. Paquette,
Sab Fillmore avenue in the
Dowden Terrace section. The
Paquettes have seven children
ranging from 9 years to 4
months.
Inspector Gray said the we'll

supplied the house with water
until city water service was
extended to the area a few
years ago. 1t was covered with
logs which supported about a
foot Of earth on which grass
was growing.
"My children and their
friends from all over the neigh
borhood had been playing in
that yard since we moved here"
Mrs. Paguette said. 1T was
just like any other yard until
that big hole appeared"
Inspector Gray said the
Paquettes were fortunate the
dangerous covering over the
well rotted away and caved in
during the night rather than
when the children were play
ing near it.
He urged that abandoned
wells be filled in completely,
never covered over.

made provisions for them. He
didn't get an answer.
The possibility that construc-
ton of two schools, ore for the
white and one for the Negro
pupils. would hasten efforts to
lntegrate were battled back and
forth. Jesse Gates, from Ran

ution of public meeting in the
