From the viewpoint Of neigh
borliness, you may not be able
to borrow a cup of sugar from
a nucfear reactor, but at least
it doesn't give wild parties.
This seemed to be the atti-
tude of rs Gaithersburg resi-
dents who met last night with
Atomic Energy Commission ex-
perts to learn about the possible
effects of nuclear reactor on
Gaithersburg when the National
Bureau of Standards installs
one there within two and a half
years.
The guests who listened to
the discussion at Gaithersburg
High School expressed no panic
at the description of the in
stallation, which will occupy a
550-acre site about one mile
southwest of the town.
To prepare the neighborhood
for the advent of this scientific
newcomer. Acc provided two
hours of background informa-
ton, most of it emphasizing
various safety features Of
The plant.
The inhabitants, obviously
well-briefed by recent scientific
study, appeared ready to accept
the inevitable.
If they have any further
questions or comments to make
about nuclear reactors as over
the-fence neighbors, the op-
portunity will be offered at a
public hearing on the applica-
ton for a construction permit,

Non-Bius Policy
Considered for
District BUILDINGS

The District Commissioners
today decided to study wheth-
er racially segregated groups
should be permitted to use city
buildings.
Based on comments by the
Commissioners, it appeared
that the city will tighten its
general non discrimination
policy to forbid meetings of
segregated organizations in
municipal buildings.
The Recreation Board for a
number of years has denied
meeting permits to organiza-
tions which are segregated,
Milo F. Christensen, recrea-
ton director, told the Com
miSSioners.
Engineer Commissioner
Frederick j. Clarke said this
seemed to be "a reasonable
policy" The other two Com
missioners. Walter N. Tobriner
and John B. Duncan, did not
question Gen. Clarke's posi-
tion.
The question of whether the
Commissioners should adopt a
city-Wide ban on permitting
meetings CT segregated groups
on District property was
raised by an inquiry from
Harry N. Peterson, District Ii
brarian. Mr.. Peterson asked
for Qualification on the city
policy after a citizen protested
a Mount Pleasant Citizens

The
Rambler
Breaks Breed
With the Epicures
BY GEORGE KENNEDY

Of all the associations the
Rambler has made in a long
newspaper career, that with
the Epieureans of Washing
ton-the club of the chefs
is high on the list.
He attended one of their
buffet suppers Tuesday
night. Eddie Dziura, chef of
the Shoreham, a man with a
smile like a Billikin doll, was
the host.
The towns top chefs were
there and they are as jolly a
bunch as you will ever meet.
Among them are Nick Mar
chitelli, formerly of the May
flower; Eddie Volta of the
Army and Navy Club, Ber-
nard Vinon of the Sheraton
Carlton, Emil BuiSSon of the
Statler Hilton and Claude
Jarrin, founder of the club.

chefs develop peptic troubles
such as loss of appetite.

said the police stopped their
car and politely asked Mr..
White to get out of the street
before he was injured or locked
up.
With this, the officer said,
he was pulled from the car and
struck by Mr.. White, leading
to several punches on both
sides. Pvt. Marlak said the

Mr.. White his badge.
Influence Charged
Mr.. White and Mr.. Mauzy

Holiday Playground
Parties Challenged
Injunction
Sought for
Christmas
By SAM EASTMAN
Star staff Writer

A George Washington Uni
versity professor has challenged
the right of recreation Off
cials to permit Christmas and
Easter programs on District
Fairgrounds.
Monroe Freedman, an aSso-
ciate professor teaching law at
GNU has said that he will seek
a court injunction to block any
celebration of a religious holi-
day on the Emery Playground,
the District Commissioners re-
vealed.
The Commissioners asked
their legal staff to study the
question.
At today's meeting, Commits
sioner Walter N. Tobriner said
the question obviously involves
the principle of separation of
church and state and directed
that the matter be submitted
to the corporation counsel's of-
flee.
Easter Party Questioned
The Commissioners were told
that Mr.. Freedman had first
objected to plans for this years
annual Easter party by the
Emery Playground pre- school
Parents Club. He said that
having an Easter party would
be in violation of the Consti-
tuition, recreation officials re-
ported.
In a letter to the Commits
SionerS the recreation board
explained that Mr.. Freedman
had stated that he would have
no objection to a party for
the children, but if it had an
Easter theme" it should not
be held.
At the suggestion of one rec
reaUon official, "the party
theme was changed to that of
a Spring party with no con-
notation of Easter" the letter
said. THE majority of the par
ents' group expressed diSpleas-
ure at the idea of changing a
long established CUSTOM" the
recreation board added.
Policy Carried Out
Last month, a recreation staff
member met with Mr.. Freed
man and he again indicated he
would seek a court judgment
Ito stop any celebration of a
religious holiday on the play
ground in the future" the
Commissioners were informed.
At a meeting October 81,
the Commissioners were told.
the decision was reached that
the Recreation Boards policy
relating to "sectarian use of
facilities is being carried out"
and that the Recreation De-
partment should request legal
guidance on the question of
future playground programs.
At tOday's meeting, Engi-
neer Commissioner Frederick
j. Clarke declared:
Il don't think we'd better
tan mper too much with

Defense Lifts
Ban on Men
In Rainbow

When they set "All's Well
That Ends Well" to music, the
American Light Opera Com
pany of Washington ought to
produce it.
The fledgling non-profit
group two days ago was stunned
by a Defense Department or
der barring the company'S three
top male stars from appearing
in "Finian'S Rainbow" because
they are servicemen. Three
other Servicemen, with minor
roles, also were banned.
Last night, a Pentagon
spokesman said the matter was
reconsidered" and the per-
formers will be permitted to
resume their roles. Rainbow,
is scheduled to open tomorrow
night in Howard University's
Cramton Auditorium.
Announcement of the reprieve
followed a meeting between
opera company representatives
and Arthur Sylvester, Assistant
Secretary of Defense for Public
Affairs, and his aides.
The Defense Department, Mr..
Sylvester said today, was "only
too glad to help" He indicated
that the original order issued
by one of his aides was based
on a department directive.
The directive prohibits serv-
icemen from engaging in out
side employment or pursuits
which would interfere with
their duties or deprive a civilian
of gainful employment.
Defense officials were as
sured at yesterdays meeting
that all members of the
"Finian'S Rainbow" cast are
unpaid.
Two Army chorus members,
William WheleSS and Robert
DeniSon. and Ronald Smith,
director of the Navy's Sea
ChanterS chorus, had been no.
titled verbally Tuesday that
they could not perform in the
show or participate in re-
hearSals.
In the past, the musicians
union has objected to letting
Servicemen hold jobs as musi-
clans in off-duty hours. Aides
in the office of Assistant Secre-
tary Sylvester said the "Finian's
Rainbow" ban had been
prompted by pressure" from
the union.

burg areas, the commission
moved into open combat with
the council after months of an
uneasy truce.
Firing the opening gun, the
commission vice chairman, j.
Newton Brewer, jr., character
lied the councils request as
unfortunately political"
He said the plans were the
product of months of study
and preparation by competent
professional planners.
Voices Suspicious
who do they Cthe counciD
have on their staff?" he de-
manded. do they have plan
ners up there? Something
funny is going on, and I'd like
to know what's really behind
all this"
He declared that "a small
group of people is trying to
run this county-trying to run
it right into the ground"
Another commissioner, Louis
Gravelle, one of two Montgom-
cry Republicans on the commits
sion, said he thought the re-
quest was a political decision. "
(The council is entirely Dem
ocratic.
One of his commission COL
leagues, w. Lawson King, a
Democrat agreed to the extent
that for a long time, they (the
counciD have been trying to
downgrade everything we do"
Mr.. Brewer, observing that
"the worst possible thing for a
planning commission to do is
to put it under a political body, "
moved for reaffirmation of the
plans as originally adopted il
April.
The commission agreed with
its general counsel, B. Houston
McCeney, that "the Montgom-
cry County Council does not
have the statutory authority to
act on, reject or remand mas
ter plans which have been
adopted by the commission"
The council, which appoints
the Montgomery commission
ers, reacted Immediately to
commission criticism.
Voices Regret
David L. Cahoon, one of
three councilmen who had re-
quested the changes, said he
was distressed that the plan
ming board is unwilling to ac-
cept our offer of cooperation
to develop a sound planning
program for Montgomery
County"
In a similar vein, Council
woman Stella Werner said she
was interested only in develop
ing better use of land "for the
good of all the people of the
county"
Present plans, she asserted,
do not adequately provide for
such things as location of
parks, open space, prudent use
of soils and long-range rela-
tionship of the upper county to
blueprints for the entire Wash
ington area.

ALFRED HAERINGER, s

ALFRED HAERlNGER, q
broad-shouldered, handsome
young man, is president of
the club. When the Rambler
first attended one of these
Tuesday night affairs IA
years ago, Alfred'S uncle, the
late Jacques Haeringer, was
dean of the chefs. A native
of Strasbourg, he introduced
French cuisine at the old
Shoreham (now an office
building) before World War I.
Today Alfred has a mod
eStly priced "buffeteria" and
his brother Francois op-
rates two French restaurants.
Claude Jarrin, a delightful
little man who is universally
known as Papa" tried to
give the Rambler the history
of the grand cuisine in
Washington.
Il opened the new Hotel
Washington in 1918. Haerin-
ger was already at the Shore
ham. Then the Mayflower
opened with Chef Sabatini in
charge of the kitchens. We
were all Europeans, trained
in the traditions of the grand
hotels.
Before that? The hotels
here had Southern cooking,
fried chicken and all that.
You know land here he
grimaced a little) - woman
cooking"
What do the chefs like best
of all? It's tripe. Stewed
tripe is always on the board
at their parties at the big
hotels and it always gets a
big play.
Honeycomb tripe is the
wall of the reticulum or sec
ond stomach of ruminantS. 1t
has a flavor that many peo-
pie don't like. But the chefs
cook this flavor out of it, let
it simmer in herbs for 18
hours.
The Rambler used to pick
up some of everything at
these offerings of SnackS. OF
late he has become more dis
eliminating. The other night
he had baked oysters casino

gOIneFy county pTeclplCaIeu the
feud.
'If the commission is unwlll-
ing or unable to implement the
policies of the governing body of
the county" Mr.. Frosh declared,
then the council is faced with
the choice of either abdicating
to the commission the junction
of land use and planning or in
seeking through the delegation
in Annapolis the elimination of
the planning commission"
limiting that the council
might eventually seek broad
changes in commission organi-
zation, he asserted that "the
planning staff should be a
branch of the county govern
ment" where it would be more
responsive to policy enumer-
ated by the Montgomery Coun-
ty Council, the elected and rep
resentative body of Montgomery
County,"
His statement was made in
reply to bitter attacks by the
commission on a council request
three weeks ago that the
planners overhaul blueprints
for development of Upper Mont
gomery County.
Open Spaces an Issue
The council contended that
the plans do not adequately
provide for future open spaces,
and held the plans will break
down from (their) own in
adequacies."
Yesterday, however, refusing
to have them redrawn, the
commission denounced the re-
quest as "tomfoolery." "a ridic-
ulous action" and "a disgusting
thing"
One member, Commissioner
John A. Floyd, accused certain
members of the council of
playing for time in handling
these plans as a favor to GER
tain groups or individuals who
have personal interest in those
areas"

THIS is with a sauce that

good veal bone and ends up
with the addition of tomatoes
on top of peppers and spices.
Better by far than any spa
ghetti you ever tasted.
There was also Spanish
chicken and rice, arroz con
polio, and calf brains and
tongues vinigrette. But the
only item the Rambler added
to his plate was a peasant
dish, stuffed cabbage.
The last was the dish that
everyone raved about in the
informal critique that fol-
lowed. 1t was so good that
the Rambler asked Eddie for
the recipe. Here it is:
Take a head of cabbage
and pick the leaves off one by
one, being careful not to
break them. Boil them in a
rich beef stock with a bou-
quet garni. Add a little
sauerkraut while the leaves
are cooking chats the trick
Make a riSotto (rice mix
ture) with ground beef,
chopped onion, salt, pepper
and rice cooked in beef stock,
Wrap the risotto in the cab
bage leaves and warm in the
oven.
Eddie Dziura was so pleased
with all the praise for the
dish that he let the cat out OF
the bag. This apotheosis OF
stuffed cabbage was created
in the Shoreham kitchens by
a woman cook.

Joseph Fitzer. an 80-year-old
retired sheet metal worker, ar
rives early each morning and
stays until sundown sitting on
a bench in the front yard of a
house that was his home for 80
years.
1--WE exchange greetings each
morning." Mr.. Green said.
Sometimes I stop and chat
with him. The bench was in
bad shape so I got hold of one
that was in better condition
and now he uses that one"
Stays in NeighbOrhOOd
Mr.. Fitzer said he moved
into the house, at 221 Second
street, when he first came to
Washington from his native
Philadelphia. 1t was a rooming
house and it was the only home
he knew here.
When the time came to move
out, Mr.. FitZer said, he didn't
want to leave the Capitol Hill
neighborhood. He now lives
around the corner at 139 Inde-
pendence avenue.
"It's only a short walk back
to my front yard" he said. Il
come rain or shine. I've been
sitting out here since I retired
three years ago."
He said he knew he was going
to have to move when the prop
erty was purchased by the Gov
eminent. 'I decided it was
going to go so I just said what's
the use of worrying Mr.. Fitzer
remarked.
| He sat on the bench putting
a cigar, one leg propped against
a fence railing, his hand rest
| ing on a cane.
A squirrel stepped out of a
tree box and approached him.
They're Just about the only
ones 1 see now" Mr.. Fitzer said.
They come by and I feed them
nuts. Now with the houses
empty you don't see many peo-
pie walking about here during
the day"
Down the block, Mr.. Green
was busy in an old dry cleaning
shop that he has converted into
a sales office. A dozen fireplace
mantelS are stacked on the
street front. inside, chandeliers
hang on display.
Antique hunters and home
owners pull up in their autos
and carry away what's left of
the elegance of the old homes.
Even the leftovers have an
air of Capitol Hill about them.
