Bright and early, z o'clock, Sat
urday morning, % boys met at
Mr.. Evans home on Haven Lake
Avenue at Chestnut Knoll Acres.
Gary Hayes Patrol of boys was
the first to leave on the hike.
Each boy carried his own pack and
canteen. Ten minutes later John
Strahle's patrol started out His
patrol was followed by Mike Hoyer
ard his group of four The Fal-
con patrol brought up the rear.
The hike was about two and one
half miles, the weather was cold
and windy, therefore, we were all
glad to see Blair's Pond when we
got there. But, the west wind was
SO strong that we had to retrace
our footsteps and make camp in
the Strahle Sand Pit.
Each patrol set up its own camp
site They cleared an area, pitch
ed their tents. set up cooking fires,
made garbage holes ard dug ia
trines, then nOsebag lunch was
enjoyed.
Later while Eugene Hitch and
Mr.. Clark laid out a compass
course the rest of the troop ex-
plored the sand pit. Then the Ten
derfoot Scouts followed this course
and the rest of the boys worked
on various requirements of scout
ing. Some were finding north by

were working on the Morse code
and others were cutting logs for

The meals were planned, cook

troll also did its own shopping. We
had such things as spaghetti,
stew, fried chicken, steak and
french fries, hamburger, pancakes.

Feed Cows On Pasture

Letting cows shift for themselves
on the first grass that shows in
the spring is not a good idea.
According to County Agent VIM.
Henderson it's a matter of nut
rients. Early fast-growing pasture
has high moisture content and
is also very high in protein and
vitamins. What is missing Is en-
ergy and dry matter.
Dry roughage can make up for
the shortcomings of early pasture
growth. Hay supplied in the feed
lot for example, provides the en-
erg and dry matter needed to bal
ance the high protein content of
early grass. The shift from barn
to pasture feeding should be grad

Board Rejects
Alcoholics Plan

BALTIMORE, Oct. % (AP).
"A proposal that a new COM
mission be given full authority
over State programs for chron-
ic alcoholics was turned down
yesterday by the board of
health and mental hygiene.
The board said a committee
of its own advisory council
should be responsible for such
programs.
The move came after a COM
mission on alcoholism, named
last year to study the problem
in the State, urged that it be
made a permanent commits
sion with broadened opwers.
DR.. Isadore Tuerk, State COM
missioner of mental hygiene,
praised a report of the tenn
porary commission as a "Splen-
did job in assessing the needs
of the State" Hoover, he
questioned whether the group
should assume responsibility
for operating facilities to treat
alcoholics.

Arlington Democrats expect
Ralph Raul this week to aban-
don the non-partisan coalition
he helped found and to indorse
their County Board candidate,
William Wetmore.
Departure of Mr.. Raul from
the Arlingtonians for a Better
County would end, at least until
next year, the control of the
County Board which the coali-
ton has maintained since 1858.
1t would cause another up
roar within the ABC virtually
on the eve of the November z
election and make the outcome
of the current political strug-
gle for the next Board vacancy
even more uncertain than it is
now.
1t probably would be inter-
preted also as an indication
that Mr.. Kaul, who temporari-
ly stepped out of the ABC last
fall to run for Congress as a
Democrat, intends to undertake
another Congressional cam
paign next year.
Departing for a weekend
trip, Mr.. Raul declined to deny
or confirm reports that he will
align himself with Mr.. Wet

more against the ABC candi-
date, Roy Lowry.
Whatever I do, I'll let you
know" he said, adding that
he may make a statement after
his return tomorrow night.
Reliable sources say that Mr.
Wetmore has had q commit
ment from Mr.. Raul for some
time, but that 1t was decided
the Endorsement would be more
effective if made late in the
campaign.
The ABC majority on the
county board was reduced from
four to three last December
when Herbert Brown quit the
coalition after a dispute with
Mr.. Raul and others who de-
Tended Mr.. Kaul's right to
participate in partisan politics
while serving as a board men,
Der.
Since then, Mr.. Kaul pub
licly has attacked his fellow
ABC board members, Leo Ur-
banske and Thomas Richards
as well as Mr.. Brown and
Mr.. Lowry.
However. rather than re.
taliate against him, the coali-
ton leadership has tried tc
promote unity and continued
to hope that the internal
animosities would diminish
with time.

cases in this category for a
variety of reasons, some of
which might be considered the
"freeloading" Senator Byrd
hopes to see cleaned out.
But as some investigators
point out, even though cases
are closed" that does not
mean the former recipient does
not return to the welfare rolls
at some later date.
Case Workers Decide
The decision to remove a
recipient from the welfare rolls
lies solely with the case worker,
not the investigator.
The special team, according
to welfare officials, will in
vestigate cases which are
taken from a scientific SAM
ping" of those receiving aid
in the ADO and general public
assistance categories.
Its work will be evaluated
by a special committee of rep
resentatives of the Corpora
ton Counsel's office, the United
States Attorneys office, the
Police Department and the
Public Welfare Advisory Coun-
Gil.

made a tidy profit. had

the recommendation ito take

Emil Press, superintendent

urges cutting down the size of
several proposed lakes to pro-
vide more land area for future
development of highways, ex-
tension of the golf course and

said, would be about $475,00O
