THE theater is a collec-

diminutive actress, flinging
out her arms and scooping
up a Siamese cat called
"Lennie-poo."
Rosemary Harris, leading
lady of the Association of

staging two shows at Olney
Theatre-mused for a bit
about the purpose of APA
while the big cat purred.
You can't act, or write
or direct" she said, "just be-
cause of personal ambition
or for personal recognition.
The whole company must be
an ensemble working togeth-
er, just like a ballet COM
pany.
With a permanent COM
pany, we can do this" she
continued. And we can do

To-day" she went on, still
serious, I'VE expect too much
of the theater and we give it
too little. Most of the time
the director doesn't know the
playwright, and the actors
have never worked together"
While this company's di-
rector may not know the au-
thor (the playbill includes
Shakespeare, Chekhov, Sheri-
dan and Shaw, you should
see the actors family tree"
Miss Harris laughed. "Our
roots all intertwine in past
production"
A native of England who
made her debut on the
American stage in Garden

Union Seeks
Bus Driver
Protection

The president of the District
transit employees union today
urged the Commissioners to
call together interested parties
in an effort to give drivers
more protection against attacks
and robberies.
Walter J. Bierwagen, calling
it a community problem, said
the Government heads should
summon D. C. Transit System
officials as we'll as those of the
union, Police Chief Robert v.
Murray and civic groups.
The suggestion ste m m d
from an incident Tuesday in
which a bus driver, James E.
Weatherington, 40, was charged
with shooting a l6-year-old
passenger who Mr.. Weathering-
ton said had attempted a rob-
berry. Mr.. Weatherington yes
terday was held under $4,000
bond pending a preliminary
hearing June IL.
Two and a half years ago the
same driver shot another youth
who tried to rob him while an
other choked him with a strand
of wire. On this occasion the
United States attorney dropped
charges.
Yesterday, Mr.. Weathering-
ton was dismissed by the tran
sit company.
Mr.. Bierwagen said he had
been out of the city and was
not familiar with full details of
Tuesdays shooting. Whether
the union will fight for MIR.
Weatherington's reinstatement
will depend on a determination

Fairfax would have lost $685.

1861 fiscal year, he said, and
VIII lose about 81 million il it

Mr.. Webb said he and Dele
gate Dorothy McDiarmid had
gathered the figures with the
aid OF the State Highway De-
partment and a member of a
county committee which studied
the subject.
The figures were turned over
to a consultant for the county
two weeks ago. THE people
should not be given incorrect

Mr.. Keith replied that the
$5O0,000 figure represented the
best the county had and added
that city status would be best
for the county even If a loss in
road funds were 81 million.

he was really confused" by Mr..
Webb's statement. The board

Webb had agreed to furnish

InCompoign
BY the Associated Press

Virginia's right-to-work Law
has been inserted into the
Democratic primary campaign
although State Senator Armi-
stead L. Boothe contends it is
not an issue.
Former Gov. Thomas B. STAN
ley entered the campaign on
the side Of the Byrd organiza-
tion-backed Harrison Goodwin
Button ticket yesterday with
the announcement that a Com
mittee to Protect Virginia s
Right-to-Work Law has been
formed.
Mr.. Stanley said the commit
tee would seek to protect the
statute through disclosure OF

10-year history Of opposition to
OI1C law.
Senator boothe is running for
lieutenant governor on a ticket
headed by 1t. Gov. A. E. S.

The Alexandria Senator
charged the move was
prompted by his attacks on
the education record of his
opponent, State Senator Mills
E. Goodwin, jr., of Suffolk.
THE six candidates for the
States highest office, includ-
ing me, all feel that this law
should be retained on the

Senator Schoeppel, Republi-
can of Kansas, today intro
duced a bill to make toll road
Of the access to the Dulles In
ternational Airport.
He moved in the wake of
testimony before a House APP
propriations subc o m m t e e
that the giant jet field will
cost about $105 million, some
$40 million more than eSti-
mated last year. This is almost
double original estimates, Sem
ator Schoeppel said.
"One item of expense which
has bad unusual magnitude
from the outset is the access
road" he told the Senate. II
do not say this critically. but
merely in recognition of the
fact that it is going to be very
expensive. 1t has to be built"
His proposal would direct
the Federal Aviation Agency
administrator to set such tolls
as will reimburse the Govern
ment for construction costs
and pay for maintenance.
The first phase Of the new
access road runs 14.5 miles
from the airport terminal
building to an intersection with
the Capital beltway at the
Mclean (Va0 bypass. Con-
Struction of this stretch has
been let in five contracts and
is due for completion in May,
1862, some five months before
the airport is expected to be
operational.
The Senator said acquiSi-
ton for the new road has cost
$2.3 million and construction
will amount to $11.9 million.
In the light of this $14.2

Jury DevoIues Justice
For Injured Douglas

A Montgomery County jury
yesterday devalued q Supreme
Court Justices damage claim
by about 95 per cent.
Requested by Justice Will
liam o. Douglas attorney to
treat him "as any private citi-
zen," the Circuit Court jury
awarded the justice $1,932.4C
for medical expenses instead oi
the $4,000 which he had re.
quested as a result of an auto
mobile accident.
The award was $500 less than
the medical expenses claimed
by Justice Douglas.
Justice Douglas had filed
the damage suit against a
Wheaton barber and his teen
age son for an accident in
January, 1858, in which the
youth, then is, collided with a
Supreme Court limousine in
which Justice Douglas was a
passenger.
Paul Connolly, attorney for
the justice, filed the suit in
Montgomery because it was the
home of the defendants, Con-
stantine G. Albano, sr. and jr.
both of l2701 Robindale drive,
Wheaton. He said Justice Doug
las considered it more appro-
pirate" to file outside the juris-
diction of the District in view
Of his position on the Supreme
Court.
In the two-day damage suit
concluded yesterday, John Nc
Inerney, attorney for the Alba
nos, pointed out to the jury
Evening star., 1961-06-01

that the medical expenses citec
by Justice Douglas included the
cost Of a one-day trip by ONT
of his doctors to Tucson, Ariz.
and $500 for the same doctor
for preparation Of the court
case.
Justice Douglas asked dam.
ages on grounds that he has
suffered attacks of dizziness
and nausea since the accident
and has been treated by -four
physicians.
Testimony by TONY" Albano
now l8, was that he took the
car from a Wheaton parking
lot without his fathers knowl-
edge or permission on the day
of the collision with the Su-
preme Court vehicle at Fifth
and Longfellow streets NV.
Had to Cancel Trip
The jury, composed of 10
men and two women, heard two
days Of testimony by Justice
Douglas himself and by six
doctors, two representing the
defendants and the other four
appearing for the justice.
Justice Douglas earlier told
the court that his dizzy attacks,
which he attributed to the
accident, had caused him to
cancel several foreign trips. He
said he had made many such
journeys in other years and
had written five travel books
which have earned "conserva- =
lively" an average of $4,000

Members of the committee

The motion also called on
the councils of the towns of
Fairfax and Vienna to hold
advisory referenda before TAX

in both towns that they, too,
seek independent city status.
The committees action fol-
lowed what amounted to a de-

the committee the county board
to consolidate with Cliff
