Thomas B. Finan, Maryland
secretary Of state, today prom
ised to look into complaints
that last Tuesdays balloting on
the Potomac River compact

narrow 35.000-vote margin,
provides for regulation of Po-
tomac River fisheries by a joint
Maryland-Virginia Commission
The agreement would re-
place an old compact dating
back to 1885,.
Hyman pressman, Baltimore
attorney who represents Wat
ermen's Associations in Charles
and st. Mary's counties, said
Friday the balloting was "un-
constitutional, illegal and of
no effect" Because 1t was not
properly advertised.
Mr.. Finan said he could take
no action until Monday. He
said he would look up the
specific step-by-step procedure
and the laws which deal with

Tips Offered to
Make Halloween
Fun and Safe

Halloween can be full of fun
youngsters-if a few simple pre-
cautions are followed by chill
dren and their parents, a Della
ware Safety Council official said
yesterday.
]. James Ashton, manager of
the Council urged parents to
make this Halloween safer by
checking on costumes and other
points. First, see that children
wear light-colored costumes, Mr..
Ashton suggested. They're east
er to see at night. Then, make
sure the outfits aren't tripping
hazards and that they are flame
proof.
Other tips:
l, Masks are dangerous be-
cause they restrict vision.
They're also hot and scratchy,
so kids will welcome a paint
! ed false face. A little rouge,
eyebrow pencil and NOUS
tache stick can make children
miniature ghosts, COLLINS, pir-
ates of clowns-but with the
added safety factor of allow
| ing them to see danger in
time to avoid it.
2. Use flashlight instead of
a candle in jack-o'-lanterns.
3. Remind the children that on
Halloween, as during the rest
of the year, safety precau-
lions should be observed. No
dashing from between parked
cars, no playing in streets, no
crossing streets without first
looking both ways.
4. To make doubly sure mo-
