a specialist in the development
and manufacture of practical,
inexpensive information retriev-
al system for use in business

Key feature of the Jonker
system is its ability to locate
stored information by scanning
the major characteristics of the
items sought and finding them
instantaneously, a departure
from conventional systems
which may scan thousands of
items to find those which salts

Wednesday for Samuel j.
Finneyfrock, Is, who served

blacksmith of Olney.
Mr.. Finneyfrock died Monday
at Montgomery County Hospi-
tai from a cerebral hemorrhage.
A native of Frederick County,
Mr.. Finneyfrock began in 1908
to operate the blacksmith shop
his father-in-law had built.
Although he hadn't shod a
horse during the past Is years,
he fixed most anything made of
metal. His lawnmower repairs
ran to 1000 annually.
For the past two years, the
shop had been operated by Mr..
Finneyfrock's son, Dudley, but
Mr.. Finneyfrock often stopped
by to help.
He was active in st. Johns
Episcopal Church and helped or
ganize the Sandy Spring Volun-
teer Fire Department.
Survivors include Mrs. Flor
ence Finneyfrock of the home;
three daughters, Mrs. Louise
WEIGH, Silver Spring; Miss Jose

education of the child.
10. Those teachers who find
it difficult to be employed on a
12-month basis could be offered
a g., 10, or 11-month contract.
Benefits to Citizens
DR.. Whittier said the plan
also offers these benefits to cit
liens:
1. The capacity of the build
ing could be increased up to a
maximum of one-fourth addi-
tional pupils thus saving money
in the building program, some
of which could be used for the
Institutional program.
2. With only one-fourth of the
school enrolment on vacation
at any one time, community
recreation facilities will more
than double their capacity and
at the same time be utilized
year-round. Education and rec
reation programs can be better
integrated under this arrange
ment of the school year.
3. Tax money saved on school
and recreational facilities can
be diverted to other badly need
ed improvements in the COM
munity.
d. A mother who has several
children could arrange the
schedule so as to have one child
at home at a time, enabling her
to work with each as an individ-
ual.
