Summer Music Tent
SouqhtNeor Rockville
$150,000 PROJECT

Plans for a 2,000-seat music
tent north of Rockville were
outlined yesterday before the
Montgomery County Board OF
Appeals.
Sheldon Gross, Philadelphia
theatrical producer for the firm
proposing the tent, said he
hoped to open the Rockville
theater in June.
He asked the board for a
special exception to operate the
tent on a nine-acre tract at
Fields and Shady Grove roads.
According to Mr.. Gross, the
theater would contain circular
rows of seats set into the side
Of a natural hollow. 1t would
cost about $150,0O0.
Plummer Shearin, attorney
for the developers, said the
firm planned to lease property
for from one to II years. He

had previously identified own
ers Of the land as Sam Fig and
Thomas G. Oyster.
Operating from 13 to 16
weeks each summer; the
theater would mostly present
musical comedies and operet-
tas, Mr.. Gross said. The firm
operates five similar theaters
throughout the East, including
one at Painters Mill near Balti-
more.
Opponents of the plan, how
ever, contended the tent would
not be compatible to the area
which has been proposed for
an industrial development.
Mrs. Alma M. Burns, a Be-
thesda real estate broker, said
roads in the area could not
carry the traffic load which
the theater would bring.
A board spokesman said the
group hoped to make a decision
on the case within two weeks.

Dominicons Await Rule
Of 7-Mon Council

SANTO DOMINGO, Domin-
ican Republic. Dec. 80 (AP).-
A new seven-man government
waited in the wings today,
ready to take over rule of
this Caribbean nation after 81
years of Trujillo dictatorship.
The National Assembly of
Deputies and Senators last
night gave final approval to
constitutional changes provid-
ing for a provisional state
council to govern the country
until elections can be held and
a new government installed in
February, 1868.
President Joaquin Balaguer
is expected to designate for
mally the membership of the
council today, and it will then
take over its task.
Mr.. Balaguer, under a for
mula proposed by him and
accepted without enthusiasm
by the chief opposition groups,
will remain head of the council
until the Organization of Amer
ican States removes the dpilo-
matte and economic sanctions
it imposed against the Domin-
ican Republic in 1860. Then he
has promised to resign.

day after she fell from a fourth
floor porch, police said.
Charged by police with as
sault with intent to kill was
her husband, Leonard Collins,

Police said his wife Anne
suffered a broken hip and
spine in the fall. Rescue squad
members said she landed on a
grassy court yard 40 to so feet
below the porch.
The husband, police said, had
gone to sleep at the home. They
said his wife at about 2:45
pm. prodded him with a turkey
fork to awaken him.
Police said the husband was
irate and chased his wife onto
the porch, where there was a
struggle. In the tussle, they
said, she fell. Police said the
couple had been drinking.

has announced it favors lifting
the sanctions. Diplomatic
sources here said they believed
other American republics would
take the same view.
President Kennedy said on De-
cember 20 that Mr.. Balaguer's
proposal to form the council
was AN impressive demonstra-
ton OF craftsmanship"
Mr.. Balaguer made the pro-
posal in an effort to solve a
political crisis that has existed
since the assassination of the

KuWuit Cites
Peril, Makes
Plea to u. n.

UNITED NATIONS, N. Y,
Dec. 80 (APD. The foreign
minister of Kuwait, Sheik
Sabah Salem ell Sabah, today
called for Security Council ac-
ton to halt tensions building
up between Kuwait and Iraq.
In a cabled protest to the
council president, Omar Loutfi
of the United Arab Republic,
Mr., Sabah said Iraq is carrying
on a propaganda campaign
which is aggravating IAN al
ready serious situation" and
threatening world peace.
MY country" he said, finds
no alternative but to take every
possible precautionary measure
towards the preservation of its
rights and the peace and secur-
ity of its people.
Il wish to urge the attention
of Our Excellency to the seri-
BUSINESS of the situation and
that before the situation wors-
ems still further the esteemed
council will take such measures
as would restore the peace and
the feeling of security in the
area"
Mr.. Sabah did not ask spe-
officially for a council meeting,
but he requested that his pro-
test be circulated to the
councils II members as soon
as possible.
Iraqui Foreign Minister
Hashim Jawad sent a cable to
the council yesterday charging
that Britain was threatening
Iraq's freedom and security by

and troop reinforcements to the

on the pact ne signed at
Kitona to unity the Congo.
Since the aSsem6ly'S in
ception at the time Congo got
its independence from Belgium
in July 1860. the number of
times it has met can be counted
on one hand.
1t is generally summoned by
Mr.. Tshombe who has used it
pretty much as a rubber stamp
for his policies. Opposition
deputies walked out is months
ago.
On January 3, it is virtually
certain the Assembly will act at
Mr.. Tshombe's bidding-either
to confirm. refute or stall the
agreement which the Katanga
leader made with Mr.. Adoula.
Ratification Needed
On his return from Kitona,
Mr.. Tshombe asserted he had
signed no written agreement
and said any such agreement,
in any case, had to be ratified
"in a democratic manner" by
his Assembly.
This gave Mr.. Tshombe time
to think things over, to sound
out his government and also a
chance to renounce the agree
ment if he so wished.
Last week. the chances of
ratification seemed slim, but
Mr.. Tshombe's gesture in send
ing Katangese deputies to the
central parliament indicate at
least some hope Of compromise.
Katanga sources say the most
likely move is for the Katanga
Assembly to agree Sin prin-
ciple" to the Kitona agreement
on condition that the Congo's
constitutional law will be modi-
fed to permit a loose fedora
tion.

Airline Plans
Shuttle Trips
To Boston

Eastern Airlines will begin
five daily, nonstop shuttle
flights between Washington
and Boston on February /.
The shuttle service will be
cheaper than regular flights
and no reservations will be re-
quired, Eastern said.
Under the successful "air-
shuttle" service already pro-
vided by Eastern between Wash
ington and New York and New
York and Boston, the passenger
simply goes to the airport, picks
up a pass and boards the plane.
He pays for the flight aboard
the plane either with cash,
"flite-cheks" or Universal Air
Travel credit cards. All pas
sengers who show up in time
to catch the scheduled flight
are assured seats as extra
planes will stand by, for use
as needed.
The new trips will leave both
Washington and Boston at 1880
and 1880 am. and 2:30, $50
and $3.50 pm. The fare will
be the lowest in effect for
daytime travel between the two
cities-$27, including the Fed
eral transportation tax. This
compares with 1929 fare for
first-cl tickets (taX in
cluded), for which reservations
and advance purchase are re-
quired.
Douglas four-engine DC-7B
aircraft will be operated on
the new air shuttle service.
Average flight time from Wash
ington to Boston will be one
hour and 81 minutes, Eastern
said.
In addition to the new shut
tie service, Eastern also will
offer five other regular week.
day flights in each direction
between Boston and Washing
ton.

Australia Sees

would regard the use of force
to gain control of West New

He declared IndoneSian lead
ers had repeatedly said in the
past that they would not use
force in pressing their claim on
the area with the Netherlands.
Prime Minister Robert G.
Menzies has sent a note to the
Indonesian Embassy here ap-
pealing for negotiations, pre-
ferably under the aegis of the
United Nations.
A note also was sent to the
Netherlands outlining Aus
tralia's position. Australia con-
trolls the eastern half of New
Guinea. Indonesia claims the
western half, and President
Sukarno recently warned Indo-
neSia may invade the island to
"liberate" the area from the
