Death of Foirfox Girl
By School Bus Probed

Fairfax County school Off
cials and police today were in
veStigating circumstances sur
rounding the death yesterday
of a 9-year-old girl who was
struck by a school bus from
which She had just alighted.
A school official disclosed the
customary student safety patrol
assigned to all buses was not
guarding the crossing at the
Fairchild ve-Convair road
stop where the child, Teresa
Ann LuscynSki of 3007 Grum-
man place, Hybla Valley, was
killed. The accident occurred a
block from her home.
County police said the girl.
a fourth-grade pupil at Grove
ton Elementary School, had
stopped to pick up the umbrella
she had dropped when the
school bus started up. The left
front side of the bus apparently
struck her, knocking her be-
meath the rear wheel, which ran
over her, police said.
Police Capt. Lewis Shumate,
head of the county police traf-
fic division, said the bus driver,
Harry Francis Scott, jr., II, a
Groveton High School senior,
told police he thought the Is
pupils who got off at the Fair
child drive stop had all crossed
the street.
Virginia State Board of Edu-
cation regulations require that a
student safety patrol member be
assigned on each bus to guard
all school bus stops and cross
ings. The patrol student is sup
posed to get off the bus at each
stop and guard the crossing
with a flag until all children
have crossed.
Mrs. Harriet G.. Trites, prin-
cipal of the Groveton Elemen-
tary School, said two of the
school patrol, one on duty, the
other off, were aboard the bus
Another patrol member had
gotten off the bus at the pre-
vious stop, she said.
When the bus stopped, the
remaining patrol member or
duty did not get out of the bus

The
Rambler
Boards
Matinee Train
BY GEORGE KENNEDY

Richmond is far from a 8
o'clock town when it comes
to private entertainment.
The Rambler found that
out Tuesday night. It was a
good party-so good that he
missed the last train back to
Washington. He checked into
the last room at the william
Byrd Hotel after midnight.
About $50 am. he walked
across the street to the rail-
road station and asked about
trains to Washington. The
station, a splendid stone
structure with huge pillars
and a Monticello dome, was
filling up with fashionably
dressed women wearing
spring suits and millinery
and corsageS.
1--WE have a special going
at 9 o'clock" said the ticket
agent. "It'S a private train,
but I'm sure Eugene Luck,
our passenger representative,
will let you on. Here he comes
now"
Mr.. Luck. q big, boyish
looking man with reddish
brown hair, said:
Sure, If he doesn't mind
travelling with $50 women.
BY the time he boarded,
most Of the women were
playing bridge. Soon the car
was filled with shrill laugh
ter.
"The girls are having a
ball." said a tall blond wom-
an opposite him. She was a
Mrs. Rookie. Her husband has

Richmond.
whats the party?" he
asked.
We're all going to the Ma.
tional Theater in Washington
to see Beckett" she said.
"It'S one of Mr.. Luck's pro-
motions. He tries to get us to
see every good show that
comes to Washington. Our
theater at the Masque in
Richmond is quite limited.

HE'S FULL OF IDEAS. At

HE'S FULL OF IDEAS. At
Christmas he runs a Santa
Claus special to Ashland
with about 1000 children on
board. Santa comes through
the train and visits with
them. The idea is to get the
children to know what a
train ride is like soethat there
will still be a few passengers
when they grow up. You
ought to talk to him."
The Rambler, who hadn't
had a train ride in a long
time, was enjoying it. The
roadbed is smooth and 116
miles in two hours flat is
good time on any American
railroad.
Mr.. Luck, who was having
something of a ball himself
playing conductor, taking up
railroad tickets and passing
out theater tickets, joined
the Rambler this side of
Fredericksburg.
'I've been doing this for six
years." he said. 81 was vice

Proposed Use
Is Feasible,
RLAIs Told
BY GEORGE WILSON
Star Staff Writer

The Redevelopment Land
Agency's plan for rebuilding
the Washington waterfront be-
tween Fourteenth street S.W.
and Fort McNair is econom-
ically sound, according to a
112-page study released today.
The Real Estate Research
Corp. of Washington was asked
by RLh to analyze the COM
mercial feasibility of the water
front plan, designed by Mrs.
Chloethiel Smith.
The consulting firm con-
cluded that a substantial i'm
mediate market interest exists
for commercial areas of the
waterfront if offered for de-
velopment generally in accord
ance with the suggested utiliza-
ton"
Final Okay Awaited
Currently, the waterfront
plan is awaiting final approval
by the District Commissioners.
1t already has been approved
by the RIA and the National
Capital Planning Commission.
The District Commissioners will
hold a public hearing on recent
changes in the plan next
month.
1 One recommendation likely
to be challenged is that "a
single owner-manager organi-
zation" should develop the
whole waterfront commercial
area-much in the way man
agement firms develop a COM
mercial shopping center.
Under the consultant's pro-
posal, individual businesses like
Hogate'S and the Flagship res
taurants and the group Of dis
placed fish merchants would
join together under the man.
agement of one organization.
However, several businessmen
already have extensive water
front redevelopment plans of
their own.
! The RIA has made no de-
ciSion on the recommended
shopping center approach.
Proposals Offered
Other recommendations Of
, the Real Estate Research Corp,
are:
Boating facilities-A marina
should be built with 500 slips
renting for 81 q foot of boat
length per month and 10 cents
a foot per day, with minimum
rentals $40 a month and 81 q
day. This is twice the SO
cent-per-foot monthly rental
now charged by Washington
Marina.
Currently, there are 592 slips
in the redevelopment area, In
cluding 10 in the Washington
:; Marina, which will remain.
| (The Washington Marina lost

' activity already underway
Yacht Clubs - Instead oi
having yacht clubs as separate
buildings. they should be housed
within major restaurants and
the motor hotel recommended
for the waterfront.
! Parking-The RIA plan calls
for 1906 spaces. This should
be increased to 1873 spaces by
> constructing more of the water
front on elevated platforms and
> parking the cars underneath.
Eventually, the demand fol
, parking by waterfront visitors
will hit S,400 spaces.
