Fairfax Plans City Status
To ForestoII Annexation

towns within the borders of
Fairfax would automatically
have their charters revoked If
the consolidation were ap-
proved.
I'VE do not intend to be
wiped out or have our political
integrity erased by somebody
else," said Fairfax Town Mayor
John C. Wood. IF the county
tries to take our charter away
by any means, we're going to
fight, and the best way to fight
is to become a city"
Cities within the borders Of
Fairfax would not be affected
by any consolidation, officials
believe.
They said that If the county
seeks consolidation, it will have
to hold a referendum in both
jurisdictions, leaving plenty of
time for the town to go after
city status.
State law provides that any
town with a population exceed
ing 5000 may become a city
if the Mayor and council petit

The teachers had planned to
appeal the proposed buster to
the school board. They are
Walter N. Davis, an English
teacher for two years, and Miss
Boydena Wilson, a social studies
teacher for three years.
There was no question Of
their teaching ability, the
spokesman said. They were to
be released because they did
not hold continuing contracts,
it was said.
The expected enrolment drop
was caused by the acceptance

Officials of the Town of Fair

town into a city if Fairfax
County tries to consolidate
with another Jurisdiction.
Almost overnight the town
would assume city status, the
officials said, in order to avoid

At the same time the Mayor
Of Vienna said that town would
take similar action if the county
made any move which threat
ened its existence.
Fairfax County has been
studying the possibilities of
consolidating with another jur-
iSdiction, perhaps Clifton, un-

the combined communities a

FARMVILLE, Va, April 28.-
Ten years after it spawned one
OF the cases that persuaded the
United States Supreme Court
to order schools everywhere
desegregated, Prince Edward
County remains determined
that its schools never will be
deSegregated.
When the Justice Depart
ment on Wednesday aligned
the legal power of the Federal
Government against the county,
alarm began to spread through
much Of Virginia.
But among segregationists
here, Federal Intervention ap-
parently created little disnay
and no desire to conciliate or
retrench. Rather, it seems fur
ther to have fortified their
conviction that they are victims
of an alien oppression and that
1t is their mission to resist in
behalf of the entire South.
Although in 1859 they locked
the doors of their public schools
to escape compliance with what
the Supreme Court had de-
fined as the law, those who
dominate the county consider
themselves and their people
law abiding.
They do not think the courts
can force them to reopen the
public schools. But yesterday
Supervisor John Steck and
School Board Chairman W. E.
Smith said the county viii not
violate any court order once all
appeals are exhausted.
Restoration Of public educa-
ton, however, would not pro-
duce integration. according to
the segregationists. They main
tain it would merely mean that
the 1900 Negro children of the
county would attend public
schools while the 1,470 white
pupils stay in private classes
conducted by the Prince Ed
ward School Foundation.
Significantly, the school
board, on advice Of its attor-
neys, has prepared a standby
budget which would support an
enrolment Of 1900 students.
Private schools now are a
permanent thing in Prince Ed
ward" declared C. Blanton
Hanbury. who heads the foun-
dation.

Yesterday afternoon Detec-
tive George Wolfgang said Miss
Lockwood attempted a feeble

her eyes if she understood. She
did blink her eyes, but on the
next page did not, leaving the

Politicians
Invited to
Be Planners

Politicians at the community
level faced a broad invitation
today to become more en-
meshed in the planning process. "
The invitation was delivered
last night by Richard H. Kraft,
director Of the National Capital
Planning Council. Mr.. Kraft
addressed the annual dinner
meeting Of the Northern Vir-
ginia Regional Planning Com
mission at the Arva Motor
Lodge in Arlington.
I'VE planners say in effect
that planning is too important
to be left to the planners" Mr..
Kraft said.
Unless the politicians join
the planners in the policy
making process. we can write
no better record than we have
in the last 30 years. We know
now that planners and politi-
clans must work together to
produce the planning policy
which tells the planner in
which direction to CO." he said.
Mr.. Kraft said that the
heralded Year 1000 Plan" for
area development was a mis-
nomer and it was more a pro
posal" than a plan.
1t will be presented at the
Washington Metropolitan Re-
gional Planning Conference

for development open to us,"

Opening lead: Deuce of clubs.
When this hand was played
early one evening East won
the first trick with the king
of clubs and returned the
queen of diamonds to dummy's
king.
South saw that he was CO.
ing to lose two clubs. How was
he to prevent the loss Of two
trump tricks?
The standard play with this
combination of cards is to lead
a low trump from the South
hand. If West has AK, he can
be held to one trick.
In this case South knew the
easy play wouldn't work. East's
opening bid located all of the
high cards in the East hand.
West couldn't have the ace OF
trumps.
Returns Club
Declarer returned a club
from dummy. East won with
the ace and led back a dia-
mond to dummy's ace. De-
clarer ruffed a club, led a spade
to dummy's jack, ruffed a dia-
mond, led a spade to the queen,
ruffed another diamond and
led a spade to dummy's ace.
At this stage the lead was
in dummy. West and dummy
each had one club and two
trumps. East and South each
had three trumpS.
When declarer led a club
from dummy East was trapped.
If he ruffed low South would
overruff. If East ruffed with
the ace South would have no
problem.
East desperately ruffed with
the jack of hearts. South over
ruffed with the queen and re-
turned the nine of hearts for
a finesse through Vests 10.

They were entitled to their

handsomely.

It's worth being a loser for
