possible, two guards are to
escort each prisoner.
Sheriff Luke J. Bennett, jr.,
told the Sentinel that he is pre-
pairing program of additional
security changes which should
be ready by Tuesday.
The main security problem is
a lack of needed manpower.
Sheriff Bennett explained that
ever since one of the Contee
brothers threw a fit in the
courtroom last year, the
judges have insisted on having
two deputies in court to watch
the prisoners.
With four Circuit Courts and
three Peoples Courts meeting
all day, this duty takes fourteen
men out OF action.
The problem is acute when it
is realized that the Sheriff's Of
flee has a staff of only IL men.
The fact that this is the time of
year that the deputies take
their 30 to IS day cumulative
vacations augments the situa-
ton.

There is no chance of reduc-

Bennett explained. "The day of
the escape ! had a meeting with
the judges, and they still insist

When asked the possibility
of obtaining more men, the
Sheriff said that it would have
to be approved by the County

School Board last Tuesday, at
which retiring teachers in the
county were awarded engraved
certificates of appreciation

III, acting president of the
Board, and DR.. c. Taylor Whit
tier, school superintendent.
Complimentary cards entitl-
ing them to free admission to
all future county school events
also were given to Miss Green
and the other retirees.
Virtually a lifelong resident
of Montgomery County, Miss
Green was born in Clarksburg
and received her secondary ed
ucation at Gaithersburg High
School.
She received her ALB. degree
cum laude from Western Mary
land College, where she majored
in English and History. At grad
uation she was awarded the
Mary Lewis Prize for BEST ALI
Round College Woman"
First Teaching Job
Miss Green's first teaching
job was at st. Michaeps on
the Eastern Shore, where
she taught English for three
years. She came to Pooles-
vile in 1925 and taught Eng
lish and Latin, with occasional
French and History classes.
When Poolesville's library
was first organized in 1910, it
was put under her direction, al
though she had had no formal
library training. A shortage of
teachers during World War II,
however, forced her back into
full-time classroom work, and
it was during this period that
she also earned her MA. in Ed
ucation from the University Of
Maryland.
In 1850, having completed the
80 hours of special training nee
essary for a fully-certified libra
rian, she became Poolesville's
fulI.time library head.

that a recent Ohio ordinance
lacked such a provision and
proved ineffective"
A number of individuals pres
ent urged that County residents
"are ready for such an ordi-
nance" having seen the success
of the picketing at Glen Echo

said the County's acceptance OF

readiness" to accept anti-dis.

Recognizing that County At

authority to pass such a meas

go ahead and act on it and
"then leave it to the courts to

proper or not"
An anti-discrimination ordi.

have two beneficial effects on
the County:

tors of the fear that, in serv-

Expert Advises DISCRIMINATING
Black Wido,O Spiders


protected from the weather.
Eggs are laid in brown sacks
about a third of an inch across.
People are not often bitten by
black widows, as medical rec.
ords attest, because, like all
spiders, they are usually timid.
One student of spiders, how
ever, has said the black widow
is particularly vicious during
the breeding season.
Gloves should be worn when
handling flower pots, stakes or
other items around flower beds.
Children's play pens should be
checked frequently for spiders.

Citizens Back Law For
Equal Service in County
Human Relations Commission Holds
First Hearing on Discrimination

A capacity turnout OF area
residents attending the Human
Relations Commissions first
public hearing on discrimina-
ton in the county unanimously
urged adoption of an equal
service law here.
Close to $50 Montgomery
County residents and represen-
tatives of progressive groups
crowded the County Building
auditorium in Rockville Thurs
day night to participate in open
panel discussions of discrimina-
ton in public accommodations,
employment practices and edu-
cational opportunities.
Although the meetings chair
man, Mrs. Ann Brown, who also
heads the Human Relations
Commission, ruled that no mo-
lions or resolutions regarding
anti-discrimination would be in
order, she did entertain "unan-
imous recommendation" that
the meeting go on record as
having urged the Commission
to recommend IAN effective pub
lie accommodations ordinance"
for the County.
An additional recommended
ton that some procedure be es-
tablished for handling discrimi-
nation appeals in hiring prac-
tees, was put on the record in
the same way.
The panel on public accommo-
dations was moderated by Com
mission Rabbi Lewis Weintraub;
on hiring, by the Rev. Kenneth
Vented, and the third on edu-
cation by Mrs. Georgia Law
son.
1t was the panel on discrimi-
nation in public establishments
which drew the greatest partici-
patton and interest during the
evening, with an estimated so
percent of those attending voic-
ing their views on this aspect of
the problem.
They heard report from the
Commission on a recent survey
of over 200 eating and drinking
places in the County, in which
restaurant proprietors were
asked whether they would serve
or hire persons regardless of
race, color or creed"
OF the individuals questioned,
the survey showed 100 would
not discriminate in service and
that 40 would not in hiring.
1t was revealed, however, that
the original response to the
questionnaires used in the sur
vey had been disappointing" in
the percentage of replies re-
ceived. After broadening the
sampling and still getting an
unsatisfactory return, the Com
mission then provided health in
spectors with the missionaries
and asked them to have restau-
rateurs fill them out while the
officials were inspecting their
establishments.
