In Their Time?

Vice President johnson

dent in their time.

told "a graduating students,
including his daughter Lynda
Bird, 10. "In our own crowd
ed little hour Of history we
have seen how the prejudice
Of religion no longer can bar
the way to the White House.
Some Of you may live to see
the day when the prejudice
Of sex will no longer place
the presidency beyond the
reach of a greatly gifted
American lady.
Long before then" he
added. II hope that you will
see a woman member of the
Supreme Court Of the United
States"
The Vice President said
that "the most fateful ques-
ton in world affairs
whether communism or free
dom will triumph-has been
answered in favor Of the
free world.
He said that in China,
''the ancient cry Of hunger
and destitution fills a desc
late land" and in Cuba, 1.-The

ton. He told Representative

searched for her.
The rape, second in the area

Sex Squard Capt. Charles

Nunzio Bonaccorsy said the
woman, who is white, went to
the basement about 8 pm. to
wash a blanket.
AS she walked back toF the
elevator, they said, she was
grabbed from behind by a man
carrying a switch blade knife
and dragged into an adjoining
garage where she was raped.
Her husband told police that
he and his wife had agreed
that if either of them was
missing for even a short time,
the other would begin a search.
When his wife failed to re-
turn from the laundry room,
the husband called the apart
ment engineer and the two
men went downstairs.
1t was the engineer who found
the victim, clutching her torn
and cut clothing about her, as
she struggled back from the
garage toward the elevator.
She was taken to George
Washington Hospital where she
was treated and released.

Some of the kids throw

Chapman, vice chairman of the

Mr.. Chapman, who has lived
in the neighborhood since 1908,
said much of the restleSsness
leading to window breaking is
caused by too heavy a concen-

He added that sometimes citi-

Granville w. Woodson, PLAN

that the breakage is partly due
to public housing overcrowding
which generates needless feel

ALL Mr.. WoodSon said.
The Rev. Andrew j. Allen,
pastor of the First Baptist

gested," the unrest is less i'm

cHLNcoTEAGUE COILS PAY OFF
Firemen's HorsepIoy Attracts Tourists
BY DAVID BRAATEN

The wild pony roundup and
channel swim-the pearl that
adds lustre to the Chincoteague
Va0 summer resort oyster
has always been a skillfully
cultured gem.
This year it has taken on
the slick gloss of out-and-out
costume jewelry.
In the first place, most of
the colts and fillies that swan
across the. channel from ASA
league yesterday were adopted
citizens Of the island.
The wild herd was hit hard
by a Worcester last March, and
many Of the animals persisted.
To beef up the ranks, Chinco-
leagues volunteer firemen, the
entrepreneurs of the annual
roundup, secured the country
side for Chincoteague mares,
with emphasis on those that
were about to foal.
They found AZ of them. It
was a sellers market, but as
Carl Jester, president of the
fire company, remarked yes
terday: 1--WE had to have them.
Without the ponies, we'd just
have to close up"
Chief Attraction
Mr.. Jester was referring to
the firemen's two-week carni-
val. The pony swim Is the at
Traction that draws thousands
|Of tourists to Chincoteague:
while they're waiting to see the
ponies, they have little to do
but spend money at the car

The herd could have been
driven to Chincoteague without
wetting a fetlock. A bridge be-
tween ,ASSaCeague ana Ch1nc0-

AS a matter Of fact, one of
the ponies, a day-old colt, was
deemed too young to make the,

ed over the bridge in a jeep.
The main herd, troupers in
the great tradition of show
business (and egged on by fire
men on horseback, plunged

NOTHING TO DO.
By DAVID BREASTED
Star Staff Writer

Public housing units stretch
in monotonous blocks UP the
hillsides around Fifty-sixth and
East Capitol streets. Monotony
is a strong influence in the
neighborhood.
There were Ill signs Of it
today at Shadd Elementary
School, which stands inyitingly
in the open in the $500 block
of East Capitol street. Class
roms throughout the three
story building are Uttered from
broken glass. More than half
the window panes at the west
end of the building are shat
tered.
About 10 Of the Ill windows
have been broken since school
closed.
During a Senate hearing on
the District Budget yesterday,
Senator Allott, Republican of
Colorado, said the school looked
to him "lkie an abandoned
sugar beet factory" He and
Senator Robert c. Byrd, Demo-
crat of West Virginia, said
District educators should "get
tough" with unruly children to
prevent such vandalism.
More Complex
But Schools Supt. Carl F.
Hansen said the solution to the
problem is not that simple.
At Shadd School this morn
ing, a 9-year-old boy stood in
line. waiting to get a carton of
milk distributed during the
summer in the free milk pro-
gram.
There's nothing to do" he \

peatedly in the neighborhood

Dropping Controls
Over Renewal Hit
RLAAssuiIs
Proposal as
Fatal Error
By ROBERT J. LEWIS
Star staff Writer

The District government will
be committing a fatal error"
if it abandons controls over en-
forcement in urban-renewal
areas, the Redevelopment Land
Agency believes.
The comment came from
RIA on a District proposal
this week to a abandon en-
forcement of provision Of ur-
ban-renewal plans after prof.
ectS are completed.
The plans adopted for diff.
ferent areas set up special re-
quirementS that must be met
by developers. Provisions gov.
ern what parts shall be for
residential and commercial use,
height of buildings, the amount
of a lot a building can occupy,
parking requirements and other
matters.
Frequently, provisions Of an
urban-renewal plan differ from
coming and other regulations
previously in effect in the area.
zoning regulations or other
means should be used to con-
tinue enforcement beyond the
life Of a project, Phil A Doyle,
RIA executive director, said.
Purposes of urban renewal
will be severely weakened" II
recommendations of the Dis
trict corporation counsel are
adopted without substitute
means Of enforcement" Mr..
Doyle said.
mot to have q workable
means of gaining continued
compliance would constitute q
fatal error"
In an opinion presented to
the District Commissioners
Monday in executive session,
Acting Corporation Counsel Ir.
wing Bryan advised the Com
missionerS to abandon 4O-year
controls written into leases OF
purchase contracts.
This would be true, he said,
because some provisions of
urban renewal plans differ
from ordinary requirements
under existing coming and
other regulations.
Those that do differ, he
pointed out. cannot be enforced
merely through police regula-
tons but would require the
District to bring civil suits in
each case.
The opinion Of the Districts
chief legal officer Is expected
to be particularly significant
in the Adams-Morgan project
area, where rehabilitation of
dwellings represents the bulk
OF the project.
To avoid having no means
of enforcing standards set un-
der an urban-renewal plan,
the District should apply zon.
ing regulations embodying the
higher standards, RIA believes.
This could be done, the
agency says, at some time
prior to completion Of the
project.
1.-THE District could rezone
the area under the coming
regulations to include the
standards established by the
Redevelopment plan," Mr..
Doyle said.
Mr.. Doyle said rezoning an
urban renewal area would be
sensible" from the standpoint
Of enforcement and "also from
the standpoint of desirable
standards elsewhere in the
city"
