Suburban STYLE

AS cultural center, Washington prob
ably never will be surpassed by Montgomery
County, but it's something of surprise to
some of us to find the extent to which cul.
ture pervades the county's atmosphere.
Take drama, for an example.
Just Tuesday, we learned there is to be
another summer theater next season, this one
at Shady Grove.
And now comes the word that the Mont
gomery Players will have theater of their
own come next season
The summer theater will join Olney in

Of course, 1t will almost always be a
treat to enjoy dinner and a show in the

more possible to stay in the suburbs for really
entertaining performances Of shows that
would do any group proud.

BIcir Lees Decision

Gov j. Willard Tawes is fighting for his political
life.
In the face of a mounting Statewide wave of re-
sentiment against his donothing policies, he is trying
desperately to line up support for his candidacy for an
other four-year term in the State House.
His latest move has been two-fold: to induce Rep.
Daniel Brewster of Baltimore County into joining his
ticket as candidate for the United States Senate and
to persuade Blair Lee ILL., to run with him for the
Congressman-at-large seat.
Lee had tried earlier to have Brewster run for
Governor with the Montgomery County delegate seek
ing the Senatorial seat The proposed Lee-Brewster
ticket would have given Maryland voters the new
blood and vigor they need SO badly.
Unfortunately, Brewster apparently has accepted
the Governors invitation to with him. We do not
believe it will help either of them The people of Mary
land are fed up with tired machine politicians and any
ticket headed by Tawes is doomed to defeat.
On the other hand Lee, during his seven years
as chairman of the Montgomery County delegation to
the General Assembly has enviable reputation
for his statesmanke actions and independence of
thought.
For his sake, and for the sake of BETTER more pro-
gressive government we hope he will resist the Gov
ernors Establishments and stick to his original inten-
ton to seek the Senate seat now held by John Mar
shall Butler
Lee has nothing to lose and everything to gain by
rejecting Tawes lastdtch effort to him to win the
independent vote the Governor needs SO badly but
which he has alienated so completely.
The Congressman-atlarg seat which Gov. Tawes
is dangling before Lee is not the Governors to give
take away 1t is not something to be decided by poll
ticians in back room filled with the smoke of i'm
pending political disaster
We believe Lee has the courage and the conscience
to refuse to run with who has brought the for
tunes of the Democratic Party to such low state He
demonstrated that courage early in the last session
of the Legislature when he challenged Tawes attempt
to dictate to the delegates Since then he has contin
ued his fight to bring truly representative govern
ment to Maryland government for the many, not
the few government dedicated to bold, vigorous
action, not one dependent the whims of political
bosses.

groups-musical comedies, operettas to high
style Broadway dramas.
All these groups need the support of inter.
ested play and musical lovers in the county
And the support can take a number of
forms: monetary contributions active partici-
patton, interest and attendance.
With all the talk of the downhill trend
of drama in New York City, where the the.
alters, actors and workers are about to price
themselves out of business, there is a need
for just such a movement as in making itself
felt in Montgomery.
1t would be an interesting, if somewhat
laborious, chore to take few days and COM
pile the number of plays, musicals and oper.
ettas that reach the boards in the county dur
ing the period of year.
Without guessing, we'd say there would
be something on hand for any kind of taste, at
one time or another
1t would do us all we'll to follow closely
the news of activities of these groups in the
county.
If you must have big boxoffice names to
be pulled out of your SHE'LL you can get
few of these.
But If it's excellence of performance YOU
seek, plus great deal of variety in dra.
matte fare, you won't find much omitted

coins Inauguration was re.
enacted? Thousands of us
stood in the cold to watch and
saw in that event a factor of
national unity. Can it be
integrity? If so, it is you who
still fight the Civil War.
1t is regrettable that the
greatest controversy of our
history has become so contro.
versial a subject to liberals.
Why should this be so? Mil.
lions of us, North and South,
unite to hold in high esteem
the men of both armies who
fought so well for their beliefs.
II honoring them we honor

mark off the watershed of our

Program Gould Succeed

The Bethesda-Chevy Chase Chamber of Com
merce has Initiated Identification program that
seems destined to get off the ground and really ac-
complish something.
Officials of the chamber gathered together the
right persons in the County Government State Roads
Commission and the Public Utility Companies in order
to formulate plans to make the Bethesda Chevy Chase
area more attractive to the home folk and visitors
Many big cities have had very effective beautifi-
cation programs which have made the shopping areas
much more pleasant. The big flower urns on Fifth
ave- in New York add touch of color that adds to
the shopping spirit of that famous of all avenues
There is no reason for the business areas of
most OF our communities to be bare and ugly and of
ten dirty with litter Bethesda and Silver Spring have
center islands that could be planted very effectively
And although Rockville has just recently installed lit
ter baskets on the main street. nothing has been done
to keep the streets clean. Too there has been no
effort made to beautify the business section Only
certain private shopping ceners have made an effort
to attract customers by having beautiful landscapng
We will watch with great interest the continued
enthusiasm and ambitions of the committee in charge
of this Chevy Chase Identification Program
And we hope other sections of the county will follow
with their own ideas.

Curriculum Report

The Board of Educaton's Curriculum Study Com
mittee will make its final report to school officials
August 10. Judging from the few preliminary find
ings which have already been made public the overall
study results are bound to be interesting and con-
structive in most areas.
We hope the board distributes copies of the re-
port to all interested organizations and individuals so
they give it all possible discussion and thought
We hope, too, that after all of the recommended
tons have come in, school officials will study them
carefully and give them the consideration and action
necessary to put into effect many possible Any
move to put them aside for indefinite period would
make farce of the entire study, in which so many
capable men and women spent so much time and eff
fort to improve the curriculum of the school system

he deserves that honor.
