laws in three other States,
nearby Virginia prosecutors are
awaiting a decision from their
own State Supreme Court of
Appeals before attempting to
close certain business activities
on Sundays.
In January, 1860, Bargain
City was fined $20,500 for re-
naming open on Sundays. 1t is
appealing the case which is
one of two now pending before
the State Supreme Court. The
court today continued until Oc-
tober further arguments on this
case.
The warrants charging vio-
lations are being served but
no attempt is made to force
closing for the time being.
For the first three Sundays
after they opened" 1t. Eike
said, I'VE served II separate
warrants on each department
head there. Thereafter we
served only one warrant against

days. 1t has become rather
routine, he says.
II Just go in, establish the
fact that they're doing busi-

said.
The last session of the Gen
eral Assembly amended the
law to prescribe in detail what
types of businesses can and
cannot be operated on Sundays.
For instance, Virginia hams
are exempted-and therefore
may be sold on Sundays. But
other food that has to be pre-
pared, cannot.
This led one legislator to
observe, "1f you eat your eggs
raw. I guess you can buy
them"
Bargain City's appeal is based
on its conviction under the law
before it was amended.
A second case, involving a
Richmond business, is before
the court under the new law
which took effect last June. A
group of Richmond merchants
contend that the 1860 General

Almost everyone is familiar
with the Van Houtte spirea,
more commonly, but errone-
ously called bridal wreath.
Not so familiar are several
others of the spirea family
that have much to offer in
variety of form, size, color,
and in their adaptability to
all sorts of soil conditions.
This is not a. recommen-
dation that the spireas be
used indiscriminately, but
rather a suggestion that they
be judged on their merits,
and that they be considered
where they can be suitably
used.
Despite the fact that the
Van Houtte spirea was over
planted at one time and has
fallen into disrepute with
many, it is still a good, de-
pendable, deciduous shrub. 1t
grows to a height of seven
feet or so, and is a handsome
plant with attractive foliage.
Usually blooming late In
May, its white flower clusters
are borne in great profusion
along gracefully arching
branches.
One Of the criticisms of
this plant most often heard
is that it is unsightly after
its flowers have faded and
turned brown. This may be
avoided by pruning the shrub
immediately after 1t has
lowered. Such annual prun-
ing will result in denser
growth and increased bloom
the following year. The shap-
ing and flower removal can
be done quickly with hedge
clippers.

Tully said.
Mr.. Tully refused to specu-
late when President Kennedy's

the matter.
AS Of last Saturday, the State
Department emphasized that
any question Of recognizing the
regime set up by Prime Min
lister Mahmoun Kuzbari is
premature"
Thus far four countries have

government which proclaimed
the association with Egypt in

invasion in 1956-"We shall

Mr.. NaSser himself said Fri
day he had called off a planned
invasion of Syria by Egyptian
troops to avoid bloodshed and
declared he would leave settle
ment of the revolt to the Syrian
people.
Open Hand Extended
/ Mr.. Kuzbari told a delegation
of trade unions in Damascus
his government extends an
open hand to all Arab countries
and to Egypt in particular, ="
Damascus radio reported. I'VE
are ready to establish Arab
unity based on equality ="
Mr.. Kuzbari's statement was
regarded in Beirut as a reply
to Cairo's charges that the rev.
olution disrupted Arab unity,
rather than an offer to return
Syria to the United Arab
Republic.
The Syrian premier had said
earlier that Egyptian domino
ton Of the United Arab Repub-
lie prompted the revolt. He
pledged the return of Syria to
parliamentary and constitu-
tional life as soon as possible.
The Syrian radio ridiculed
Carlo broadcasts saying a revolt
against the revolutionary gov
eminent had broken out in
Aleppo, big industrial center in
the north.
AleppO Reported Quiet
An American living in
Aleppo, reached by telephone
from Beirut, said the city was
quiet.
There were indications of
tensions in Syria, however, and
the country'S borders remained
closed. Foreign newsmen were
turned back at border points
for the fourth straight day.
The Syrian army command
warned foreign destructive ele-
ments" against trying to stir
up demonstrations. The for
eign groups were not identified
The warning appeared directed
at Communists among others.
Damascus broadcasts limited
restleSsness among the 10000
Palestine refugees living in
Syria. The Palestine refugee
organization appealed to the
refugees to keep out Of Syrian
internal affairs and reminded
them the new regime had
promised to help them.
The shutdown of schools and
universities was regarded as
significant. Students in the
Middle East are easily aroused
and play an important political
role. Mr.. Nasser had mary
student admirers before the re-
volt.
Confidence in the Kuzbari re-
gime was reflected in the i'm

The Syrian pound. traded for
as little as S2.03 before the
revolution, rose to $2.45.
