Where Louie Dwells has both.
The room Is called, In q fine
show Of disdain for the French
language. the Salon d. Blues
and 1t Is handsomely and Diff
ferently decorated.
So is Miss Gray, who is
more. than worth the trip
down to Louie's neighborhood.
She's q pretty, dark-haired lass
with all Of her In the right
places and with an uncom-
monty fine talent for making
the most Of any given set Of
notes and words. Half Of an
act when last reported on here,
she has progressed noticeably
as a singer since undertaking
the solo life.
She has plans to progress
even further, too, assiduously
lpracticing her piano with an
eye on the day when she can
become her own accompanist.
Fortunately, for herself and
the customers who dwell down
at Louie's, she and Bob Vigoda
discovered each other. He's
the skilled pianist who used to
play for the Uniquecorns, so
she now can go on singing
without waiting until ready to
be her own accompanist.
Even though she has not
reached her full potential yet,
Miss Gray is a singer with a
rare combination Of skills.
You've heard singers who could
do fascinating things melodic-
ally. You have heard others who
delivered a lyric as II they
meant every word Of 1t.
Miss Gray does both at the
same time. She covers a wide
range from the familiar-"I
Get a Kick Out Of YOU
Lovely Way to Spend an
Evening"" True To You in
My Fashion" But Not For
Me-" etc. - to the unfamiliar
and the forgotten. She came

Miss Gray has a consider

comedy numbers that should
have, but never did become as
popular as others in the same
score. 1t is quite a spell she

THALIDOMIDE's SHADOW
Doctors Disagree on Drug

that thalidomide had been
taken in some so per cent OF
the cases. He is convinced
that, in many other cases, the
drug was, in fact, taken and
that the mothers have either
forgotten or refuse to admit it.
But DR.. Lenz is cautious about
claiming that thalidomide has
been solely responsible in every
case.
For their part the Skeptics
contend that the human error
involved may be at least as
great on the other side. Many
mothers, they argue, may have
been too eager to blame thali-
domide for their misfortune.
And even admitting the &C
curacy of DR.. Lenz'S findings,
there is no proof that other
drugs may not have been taken
as well.

logical distribution of the de-

today it is still defending this
decision with an impressive
earneStness.
The arguments, of course,
can be chalked up to simple
self-interest-a little like ask
ing a tobacco man what causes
lung cancer. Although there is
no longer any question of SELL
ing thalidomide, the reputation
Of the drug firm is very much
at stake. Its legal and financial
responsibility is also being
tested in West German courts.
But the fact that many doctors
take these arguments seriously
add to their weight.
In the first place, it appears,
nothing has been definitely
proved. The investigations
such as those of DR.. Widukind
Lenz in Hamburg or DR.. Hans
Weicker in Bonn start from the
assumption that thalidomide is
the responsible agent. And
their findings are far from con-
elusive.

Montgomery
Water Report
Political Aspects
Of New Problem
Given Attention
BY PAUL HOPE
star Staff Writer

GOV. raves mas asked state
health officials for q full re-
port on Montgomery County's
pollution problem with well
water.
The Governor told reporters
during a convention yesterday
in Ocean City that he has
asked DR.. Perry Prather, head
of the State Health Depart
ment. to give him a personal
report.
The health department al
ready has announced it is in
vestigating reports that county
health officials have failed to
follow State laws requiring in
spections of wells.
Investigations also are going
on at the county level after re-
ports in The Star last week
that the laws were not being
followed.
Septic Systems Blamed
Gov. Tawes said he was CON
cerned" about the health as
poets Of the problem. It has
been reported that several, and
possibly many, families in
Montgomery County have been
drinking water polluted by mall
functioning septic tanks.
The Governor apparently is
concerned also with the political
implications of the county prob
lem. The Republicans have
made it a political issue in the
county and State elections.
Frank Small, jr., Republican
candidate for governor, has
blamed the sewage troubles on
the Tawes administration which
he claims has been lax in en-
forcing the laws.
Unaware Until Friday
Gov. Tawes said he was not
aware of the problem until last
Friday. He said he then asked
DR.. Prather to make q full and
complete" report to him. The
Governor said he expects to
have the report this week.
Gov. Tawes said he had seen
earlier newspaper stories about
the condemnation Of a SAT, 900
home in Potomac as unsafe be-
cause the well had been pol
luted, but he said he did not
become aware that the problem
was more widespread until last
Friday.
The Republicans continued to |
lambast Gov. Tawes on the issue |
over the week end.
This is unbelievable" said
Mr.. Small, that a Governor
would say that he is not aware |
Of such a serious problem in
his own State when the mat
ter has received extensive pub |
licity in the newspapers for the
past several weeks.
Mention Of Surplus
I'm spite Of this aggravated |
health problem, the Tawes ad-
ministration has boasted about
having a surplus of over a !
half million dollars in the
budget of the State Health
Department for the fiscal year
which ended June 80"
County Manager Mason A.
Butcher on Saturday declared
that he intends to hire as much
help as necessary to enable
Montgomery to comply with
regulations requiring that each
well be examined at least twice
before it is judged to be safe.
Mr.. Butcher expects to re-
ceive a report today from Health
Director William ]. Peoples
concerning how many new en-
ployes are needed. He said
he plans to discuss the entire
situation with the County
Council tomorrow.
