Every stage seems to
have teen-agers trod-

days. But one of the
more unusual under
takings by a dramatic
group was the Airing

production of "The
Wonderful Adventures

Satirical romance Of
a Spanish country
gentleman who imag-
ines himself a knight.
The Northern Virginia
teen-agers performed
under the stars in Lub-

their own windmill

Felix Euns

We, as avid readers Of
TEEN. have been appalled, to
read some Of the recent let
ters concerning the Top Ten
listings. Although Tom
CTEEN, Sept. 2l) may not
know it, there Is a substan-
tial percentage Of the teen
population which enjoys lis
tening to really good modern
music forms; such as the
jazz-oriented selection of
WMAL's Felix Grant.
The very fact that Felix
Grants program is not a
stereotyped duplicate of the
rest should be reason enough
to include it in your survey.
This is an indication Of some
variety in teen listening hab-
its, and the Top Ten is not
complete or accurate with
out representation of all mu-
sical tastes.
BILL SINTMS and KEN COLE
Lee High School juniors.
When I read the request
that WMAL be taken off the
Top Ten listings, 1 realized
that it was time for me to
speak up in protest.
Tom CTEEN. Sept. 21) said
that it should be removed
because it has nothing in
common with the other sta
tions." What better son
than this to include it? Why
else are there listings for nine
separate disc jockeys except
to show diversity of opinion2
AS for the other stations,
the out-of-town ones that
were suggested to replac c e
WMAL on the listing - I
think it would be great to
see what's going on musically
outside this area (backing up
my diversity Of opinion theo-
ry) but please, not at the ex-
pense of Felix Grant.

Instead Of taking WMAL
off the Top Ten, why not
take stations like NETWORK

them with WTOP and WRC?

Alexandria near Baileys Cross
roads.
David H. Scull, president of

Completion of the purchase will
depend on rezoning of the
property to allow apartments,
Mr.. Scull added.
He said Hurelco officers are
consulting with architects and
engineers to decide what type
of unit can best be built. At the
time the company was formed
last June Mr.. Scull said both
small apartments and single
family homes were being
considered.
Hurelco received approval
