Fairfax has another new
school board member and its
superintendent of schools may
be on his way out in the still
boiling county controversy.
Mrs. Raymond Lair, of 1920
Laurel court, near Falls Church,
was appointed to the school
board by the Board of County
Supervisors yesterday on the
recommendation of Supervisor
Robert C. Gotten.
Her appointment brings to
five the number of members
appointed to the school board
since all seven former members
wete fired Monday. Two of the
former members were irnmed-
iateI reappointed, and two
new members were named
earlier this week.
A majority of the old board
had strongly supported Supt,
Earl O. Funderburk, who has
served 10 months of a four
year, 20,00O-a-year contract.
The new members of the
board have declined to COM
ment on Mr.. Funderburk's flu

He said today that unless two
other junior high school prof.
ects in the 1864 budget were
approved, the schools might be
short as much as II 900 seats
i'm junior highs by the end of
the decade. Even with the three
additional schools, the system
would have to find room for
4 1000 pupils.
Part Time Schedule Told
He also reported that 2,648
elementary school children in
16 schools were on part-time
classes last month.
DR.. Hansen said that 794
children are on waiting lists to
enter kindergartens.
The part-time classes and
waiting lists are partly due to
teacher shortages. DR.. Hansen
yesterday asked budget officials
to allow 207 more teachers for
regular academic classes.

day. In it they explained why
they defied the county board
by refusing to consent to the
transfer Of school construction
to the county department of
public works.
Mr.. Funderburk said yes
terday that he read the state
ment because several of the
teachers asked him to. Some
one handed him a copy as he
entered the first meeting, he
said. The superintendent ex.
fplained that the teachers
wanted to be informed of The
situation. He added that HI
had not intended to criticize

ton"
Stuart DeBell, who was the
only supervisor to vote against
firing the old school board, said
Mr.. Funderburk's presentation
had been i'll advised and should
be looked into.
If MFR. Funderburk should be
fired, the action presumably
would have to involve some
adjustment of the remainder
of his contract term.
1t is the practice in Fairfax
County for each supervisor tc
name a school board member
from his district. Supervisors
Adelard Brault and DeBeH said
they would select the remaining
two members of the board nexi

Inaugural
Surplus Goes
ToUGF Drive

President Kennedy today pre-
sented to the United Givers
Fund a check for 1922, 900 pro-
vided by surplus from the 1861
Inaugural Committee. ~
At. the request of President
Kennedy's family, UGF has
agreed to put $4,000 aside in
a special fund to start a new
program of recreational activ-
ity for retarded children. ac-.
cording to Mark Sullivan. jr..
president of the United Gigers
Fund.
The remaining $l47,000 would
go into the general UGF, which
finafees l4S agencies.
Ceremony at White House
Mr.. Sullivan and William
Oalomiris, general campaign
chairman of the drive, accepted
the gift from President Ken
nedy and Edward H. Foley,
chairman of the Inaugural
Committee, in a ceremony at
the White House.
The gifts brings the amount,
raised in the drive to $6,945, 900,
which is 86.37 per cent of goal.
The Government Unit today
reported it has reached 110.79
per cent of its $3.4 million
quota. Officials expect the
drive to end on schedule on
November 10.
Mr.. Sullivan said plans for
the program for the retarded
are "as yet rather nebulous."
Request From Mrs. Shriver
The request came through
Mr.. and Mrs. Sargent Shriyer.
Mrs. Shriver, who is President
Kennedy'S sister, is a founder
of the Joseph P. Kennedy, jr.,
Foundation for the retarded.
The 1t. Joseph P. Kennedy,
jr., Institute at 801 Buchanan
street NE. was built some three
years ago with a $500, 900 Ken.
Hnedy foundation grant.
Mrs. Shriver's Maryland farm
was used this summer as a day
camp for retarded children in
the Washington area.
The Presidents sister, Rose
mary, has lived in a Catholic
institution for the retarded for
20 years
There are four retarded chill
dren's organizations in the
United Givers Fund, but Of
ficials did not indicate whether
any of them would receive the
special gift. That is one Of the
details that must be worked
out, Mr.. Sullivan said.

sos Apartments Finished
So far. the four apartment
buildings, supplying a total of
sos apartment units, and a
one-story shopping building on
the east side of Fourth street,
have been completed.
The Redevelopment Land
Agency has proposed that Mr..
Zeckendorf build two more
multi-story apartment and Of
flee structures, instead of the
single a dditional one-story
shopping building. The office
building would be eliminated.
Under the plan, first-floor
commercial space in either one
or both of the apartment build
ings would be permitted as a
means of Frightening the area
after dark. Space for restrau-
rant, or other night spots, might
be included.
Both RIA and the National
Capital Planning Commission
are convinced the changes
would be, more appropriate for
the downtown area than the
open spaced" existing plan.
An -NCPC spokesman said
today:
This area needs more lights,
more interest, more people.
Right now, it's a dead sea of
cars that seems to be in a sub
urban setting rather than in
the heart of the CITY,"
Pendulum Swings
In the same vein, Phil A.
Doyle, RIA executive director,
said the development reflected
a phase of urban renewal in
which cities were re-designed
"as if they should be vast open
suburban space"
"The pendulum swung too
far in a reaction against city
over-crowding and its earlier
association with sums" he
said.
Under way, he added, is a
complete re-analysis" of the
site plan in order to add 400
or 500 additional apartment
units and give the area a livel-
Ter city character.
He said Mr.. Zeckendorf
would be expected to pay, on
the basis of "the fair market
value" for land more inten-
sively used than permitted by
the existing plan.

Hopes Fade on Solving

ment suits against the State
Senate.
Urges Compromise
"The only thing that can be
done now on the State level"
he said, would be for the Gov
'ernor, the eight Congressman
and leaders Of the State SEN
aEe and the House of Delegates
to sit down and see if a COM
promise bill can be worked
out" is.
Under the State administra-
TONS bill, defeated at the polls
Tuesday, the new district for
the Congressman given Mary
land by the 1860 Federal census
would have been carved out of
the 5th district, the States
largest.
Senator Wheatley said he
would oppose legislation to give
a Representative to Montgorn-
cry County at the expense OF
other districts. He added that
he would be satisfied to lei
Maryland keep its at-large seal
rather than go through the
process of trying to create q
new 9th district.
Women Hit ImbaIance Z
But if they want to make
Prince Georges a congressional
district by itself, I would sup
port that" he said.
i The League of Women Vot-
ers, especially in Montgomery
County, had opposed the pro-
Iposed 9Th district as unfair to
1.-THE other large suburban coun-
ties. They said voters on the
Eastern Shore would have az
times the strength of voters in
Baltimore and Montgomery
Counties.
/ If every Maryland district
were equal in population. &C
cording to the league, each dis
'ttrict would have about 387, 1000
people. The 9Th, which includes
Montgomery, now has 100000.
and the I'd, including Baltimore
| County, now has 621 900.

The possibility of Maryland's
new congressional seat being
filled indefinitely on an at
large basis became apparent
today.
Suburban Maryland political
leaders saw little prospect of
solving the thorny political
problems in creating a new
congressional district in the
next session OF. the General
Assembly.
Both State Senator H. Win
ship Wheatley, jr,, Of Prince
Georges, and Representative
elect Carlton r. Sickles feel
that practical 7 political prob
lens may rnini any chances of
establishing an 9th congress
sional district which would
please the mai ority of the State
legislators.
The decision bounced back
to the General Assembly Tues,
day when the voters defeateS
lState plans to create the new
district out Of Prince Georges
and Howard Counties. Thi.
plan was opposed by the League
of Women Voters in Mont
gomery and Baltimore Counties
and by Republican candidates
GUIDE Comedies Difficulty
Gilbert GUIDE, a Republican
elected to the State Senate in
Montgomery Tuesday, said that
he and the G. o. P. controlled
Montgomery delegation viii
definitely push for a fairer
redistricting plan" in the jan
uary session Of the Legislature,
Mr.. GUIDE admitted that any
new plan would create difficult
political problems. The Re-
publican suggestion has been
to take one Congressman from
Baltimore City and reshuffle
other districts to allow Prince
Georges, Montgomery and Bal
timore Counties one Repre-
sentative each.
IT don't see how anyone Is
going to convince the city
(Baltimore) and the Eastern
Shore to give up representation
in Congress unless there is {
reapportionment of the STATE
Senate" Mr.. Sickles said.
The new Congressman, who
was elected Tuesday in an at.
large election, noted that there
are six State Senators in Balti-
more. City and nine on the
Eastern Shore, giving thi:
group more than half the vot'
ing strength Of the 29-membel
Senate. The Senate must APP
prove any new plan.
Mr.. Sickles, the man who
would suffer most if Mary
lands new House seat remain;
Eat-large, said he feels any fail
solution will have to wait unit
the courts rule on reapportion.

T enth Street
Mall Building
Is Unopposed

A one-minute public hearing
today cleared the way for the
District government to approve
construction of a Federal build
ing to bridge the Tenth street
mall.
The proposed new structure
will extend along Independence
avenue from Ninth to Eleventh
streets S.W. 1t is known as
Federal Office Building No. 5.
When it was proposed by the
General Services Administra-
ton more than six months ago,
New York Developer William
zeckendorf protested against
it's construction, calling it a
Chinese WALL"
At today's Commissioners
hearing in the District Build
ing, no objections were filed.
There were no witnesses except
a representative of the Ma
tional Capital Planning Com
mission, who filed a statement
in behalf of the proposal.
Changes Considered
The plan changes up for a
hearing today also would mar
row the proposed right-of-way
of the Tenth street Mall from
200 to $50 feet in a section 'ex-
tending from independence
avenue to Maryland avenue
S.W.
These notifications in the
Southwest Washington urban
renewal plan were approved by
the planning commission Sep
TENDER IS. Earlier Congress
passed a special act to permit
the bridging of Tenth street.
Before the building can be con-
structed, however. the Districts
consent also is needed.
A further change to narrow
the Tenth street Mall to $50
feet from Maryland avenue
south to an overlook structure
near Maine avenue has also
been approved by the planning
commission and will, likewise,
require approval by the District
Commissioners after a hearing.
View of Waterfront
The overlook will be a raised
structure at the south end of
the Mall that will offer a view
of the entire waterfront. So
far the only section of the Mall
which has been completed is a
bridge across the Southwest
freeway.
After today's hearing, Col.
Thomas K. Fullerton. Assistant
Engineer Commissioner, said
| he would recommend to the
three District Commissioners
that they approve the changes
in the urban renewal plan as
soon as a statement is filed by
Mr.. Zeckendorf. The New
Yorker is to be the redeveloper
of the nearby L'Enfant Plaza
area, which joins the Tenth
Street Mall midway between
independence avenue and the
Maine avenue overlook.
Col. Fullerton, before whom
the hearing was held, said the
urban renewal law requires
that the Commissioners obtain
a written statement from any
owner of adjoining property
before renewal plan changes
can be modified.

The
Rambler
Is Delighted
With the Weather
By GEORGE KENNEDY

On Monday big white
flakes of snow unexpectedly
began to fall.
Over the telephone Mrs. R
asked if she should start
home from work early-or
would the highway be un-
frozen at 5 o'clock.
A copy boy asked the Ram
bier when he was going to
make his annual predictions
about the coming winter.
Everything seemed to con-
spire to make him happy:
The idea he was a prophet.
The snow. The concern
about the weather.
Mrs. R. got home all right,
Before it melted, the snow
enabled the photographers
to contribute several pretty
pictures to their papers.
As to his being a prophet,
the Rambler had to remind
the copy boy that the re-
markedly successful predic-
ton about last winter which
he wrote in this column last
fall was not his.
He is not one of those who
predicts the weather on the
relative positions of the
moon and the planets on
any future day.
He pays no attention to
the fur on the caterpillars
known as the "woolly bears"
The crops of acorns and
winter berries such as the
dogwood and holly trees bear
mean nothing to him.

FOR SEVERAL YEARS he
has been privileged-that's
not quite the word, but then
again it is - to talk with
Jerome Namias, head of
Extended Forecasts in the
Weather Bureau. Mr.. Ma
mias will talk with anyone.
Like many another occupying
extended outpostS of the
new frontiers of science, he
appreciates anyone's being
interested in what he is
doing.
Mr.. Nafnias daily gazes
into the most expensive
crystal ball in the history of
weather forecasting or any
other attempt to penetrate
the future.
1t is a compilation and
analysis of data obtained by
sending instrument bearing
weather balloons aloft from
all over the land masses of
the Northern Hemisphere,
from the Arctic icecap, and,
from ships at sea-also from
satellites. AL the accumu-
lated data, several hundred
thousands or a million items
are fed into an IBM 7O9O
all-transiStor computer.
Every month Mr.. Namias
uses the product to prepare
a 30-day forecast which is
published and a 90-day one
which is not.
The 30-day one had been
prepared every month for 10
years or so before the
Weather Bureau was salts
fled that its probability
justified its publication.
The 90-day forecast still is
not published. However, it
is neither classified nor top
secret.
While ] have never seen it,
Mr.. NanlSas has said that it.
gives him certain ideas
which, at times, he feels free
to talk about.
WMENI CALLED HIM last
year shortly after November
/, he said that was the
worst time Of year to make
an extended forecast. He
asked me to call him again
II
early Id December.
I went out to Suitland to
see him on December 2, 1861,
and found him quite elated.
His unpublished predictions
for the fall, September,
October and November, had
been very successful. That
encouraged him to stick his
neck out. He predicted a
mild and. open winter.
He was speaking Of the
eastern half OF the conti-
nent. That winter Richmond
was piastered with a. seven
inch snowfall, Another
storm gave Norfolk the same
treatment, something I'M
precedented. Baltim or e
caught it from a third storm.
But Washington went UNI
scathed, the mild and open
winter continued until the
big Atlantic storm that al
most destroyed Ocean City,
buried the Capital area in
snow March 5.
Washington i'm m unity
gave the Rambler and per-
haps Mr.. Narnias a local
reputation asa fprecasters
Fully aware that it is
doubly dangerous for a pinch
hitter to go to the plate
when his batting average is
1000, the Rambler will try
again. His prediction-it will
really be that of Mr.. Namias
