words may have been spoken
at some time, it is unlikely. A
tender feeling is even pro-
iected toward those kids who
have been yelling up and
down the street all summer
knowing that by tomorrow
they will be looking at the
world through classroom
windows.
There was only one time in
the Rambler's life when
going to school looked like
a desirable way to spend the
day. That was at age 4,
when an older brother went
off down the street to a
strange and wonderful place
where 4-year-olds and dogs
could not enter.
Guilt feelings for all this
anti-intellectualism were be-
ginning, until conversations
with other adults assured
that this is a typical view
point. In retrospect, at least,
no one likes school.
One friend said he used to
get in practice by getting
sick 10 days before opening
day. Another said he would
turn away his face when he'd
pass the corner drug store.
The proprietor, who until
mid : August had been a
friend, was stocking up with
psncils and lunch pals and
had plastered his windows
with big signs plugging

One feature of the plan.
stressed by Mr.. Orsinger, is that
the sewer could be completed
in the fall of 1868 because it
would be built with private
money. Mr.. Orsinger said his,
firm would pay for sewer line
construction and for necessary
pumping stations and would
later sell some of the installa-
ton back to the Washington
Suburban Sanitary Commission.
Mr.. Orsinger said the Dulles,
sewer. scheduled for compile
ton next October, is designed
with enough capacity to serve
this part of Montgomery
County. Federal Governments
permission would be required
to use the sewer. Mr.. Orsinger
said his plan would save the
sanitary commission about 4

and that his system could he

County Gets Droft of Pure Water Law

One of the strongest re-
quirements of the law would
be the necessity of chlorinators
in all new and reconstructed
wells, Mr.. Carter said. He
noted that some people object
to the taste of chlorine in their
water. The new law also would
give county health officials the
right to demand chlorinatorS
in any existing well when tests
show contamination.
The new ordinance also
would forbid developers from
subdividing land designated as
substandard for septic tanks
on a soil map drafted for the
county by the Department of
Agriculture.
Under present requirements,
the developer can build homes
on portions of such land, but
the number of homes is re-
stricted.
A $1,000 bond would be re-
quired of all well-diggers under
the proposed ordinance to in
sure that their work is in ac-
cordance with new regulations.
Evening star., 1962-09-04

Faced with complaints of
contaminated water and faulty
private sewer systems, the
Montgomery County Council
today received a proposed law
that would tighten controls over
well and septic tank system
construction.
The first draft of the pure
water" regulation would:
1. Require every new well to
have a built-in chloronator.
2. Forbid subdivisions on soil
not suited for septic systems
unless public sewers were. avail
able.
8. Require licensing and
bonding of all well-diggers in
the county.
County Attorney Alfred H.
Carter, author of the ordinance,
said that its goal is pure
drinking water" Contamination
Of wells in the Potomac area
recently has come under inves-
tigation. A public hearing on
the proposed law will be held
at 2 pm. October 9.
Evening star., 1962-09-04

In explaining his proposals,
Mr.. Carter said any new law
should contain provision for
new tests that can accurately
predict the ability of soil to
absorb septic wastes.
County officials meanwhile
were told that water pollution
and septic tank problems
in Potomac can be solved in
late 1868 with about $400. 900
and q connection with the
Dulles interceptor sewer.
The suggestion came from a
developer who ordered an en-
cheering study of a 120-acre
tract in the Williamsburg
area Is months ago because he
realized the land was not fit
for septic systems.
Victor j. Orsinger, president
of Parkwood, Inc, sent copies
of his study to District, Mont
gomery and Maryland officials
today. His engineers gave three
alternate plans to connect the
Potomac area with the Dulles
sewer, which is being built to

Arsonist Fires
3 Apartments
In Arlington
80 Use Ladders
In One Building;
None Are Injured

Three fires, all of which were
caused by arson, according to
firemen. broke out in separate
Arlington apartment buildings
within 10 minutes of each other
early today.
Some 80 people made a pre-
carious escape down ladders
from the third floor Of one
building at 837 South Frederick
street. Fire Inspector Harry
Williams said.
Tenants also were evacuated
through smoke-filled corridors
Of apartments at S43 South
Greenbrier street and SOS
South Eighth street.
However, Inspector Williams
said there were no injuries.
The first blaze on Greenbrier
street was reported at 1851
am. the second on Frederick
at 1888 am. and the third on
Eighth street at 1:01 am.
Started in Easements
Firemen said all three were
started by an arsonist who ig-
nited material in storage bins
in the Easements Of the build
ings.
Smoke spread so rapidly
through the buildings on Fred
erick street that passage
through the upstairs Railways
was impossible.
The fires were extinguished
quickly. but the buildings were
extensively damaged by smoke,
Inspector williams said.
He reported that there have
been other instances Of at
tempted arson in the same area
Of Arlington within the past
two months and that his men
are seeking information con-
cerning them from residents in
the vicinity Of the apartments,
which are situated within three
blocks Of each other.
Last August 2, tenants at
834 South Frederick and 843
South Greenhrier were routed
from their sleep after someone
set blazes in the Easements
Others Needed Ladders
Then, as this morning, many
had to be evacuated by ladders
and apartments were damaged
by smoke.
Earlier in the summer still
another arson attempt was
made in the area.
Firemen said that only luck
and prompt discovery of the
blazes have prevented injury
or fatalities thus far.
"If anyone has any informa-
ton at all regarding who might
be responsible or any informa-
ton that otherwise might be
Of help, we urge him to call US
at once. We want to curb this
before serious injury occurs"

Defense problems in South

role in the discussions.
After a 75-minute meeting

avoid arguments over words
and to discuss in substance the
Australian commodities that

Terrorism ragged also in the
eastern city of Constantine and

Antigrenade nets on bus and

BY contrast, Oran had only

When France and the ma

Moslems died by machine-gun
and pistol attacks.
