Although a sewer line in
Rock Creek Park Is in danger

raw sewage into the creek,
two Government agencies have
been unable to agree for sew

is Imminent"

Robert j. Mcleod, chief en-
gineer for the WSSC. said he
hopes that an agreement can

Renewal Problems
Delay New School
BY JERRY KLINE
Star staff Writer

A new Alexandria school de-
signed to relieve the city's over
crowded high schools has been
delayed along with the city'S
urban renewal program. School
Supt. T. c. williams told the
Alexandria School Board last
night.
The new 2.O00-pupil school,
to be named after Mr.. Will
liams, is affiliated with the
urban renewal project in the
Midtown area. Federal con-
sideration of the project was
suspended last month. pending
the city's success in locating
public housing for the families
who will be displaced.
Under the present schedule,
Mr.. williams said, work on the
new school will begin next
February and will be completed
two years later.
This is the type Of delay Of
which l have been fearful" he
said.
Pupil Load Grows
While construction of the
school faces delays. overcrowd-
ing has become more severe,
Mr.. Williams said. During the
past year, enrolment has risen
by 1856 to 1878 students. OF
the 1S6-pupil increase. 161 en-
tered the high school. he said.
The school board also has
run into difficulty in its at
tempt to ease overcrowding at
the jefferson School by buying
three classroom trailers. which
do not comply with the city
building code.
An attempt by city and
school officials to reach agree
ment on the trailerS is
scheduled to be made today.
Other Steps
In other efforts to solve over
crowding, Mr.. Williams said:
Old shower and dressing room
spaces in the George Washing
ton High School are being con-
verted to clasSrooms, making
it possible to exc out three
clasSroms of a purely stop-gap
nature"
Plans to construct a multi
purpose room on the jefferson
school grounds are under con-
sideration.
An addition to the Ramsay /
School will be built after the
cost is determined and funds /
are made available by the
Housing and Home Finance
Agency.
Bids will be taken Socn for
construction Of an addition to
the Parker-Gray School.
In ther action, the board held
an hour-long secret session and
later announced the awardig
of $l3,40 in contracts to pave
various lots or driveways at
five schools. Asked If the awards
could be made in closed session,
Board member Frank A. Luck
EFT said. I'VE can do anything
We want to do"

we think it is q necessity for the

Centers Inadequate
DR.. Heath said "the number
of neighborhood centers for
public health activities is gross
ly inadequate for the needs OF
the District" He cited the fact
that for its neighborhood serv-
ices the department has rented
stores, and operates a pre-nata,
clinic in an old grocery store
DR.. Hansen said facilities ir
new schools for social workers
medical specialists, and othel
agency representatives "woulc
mean more than simply hous-
ing these people. 1t means CO.
ordinated services and more
interplay among them"
DR.. Hansen told the board
Evening star., 1962-05-17

that such an arrangement will
enable these representatives to
work in greater unison on
school, family and community
problems" DR.. Heath pointed
out that his department con-
ducts about $4,000 medical ex-
aminations Of school pupils a
year. often in very inadequate,
improvised quarters" He said
that planned space in new
schools might make it possible
to open new facilities close to
groups Of schools.
Both welfare and health de-
partments currently operate in
public housing projects. The
health department has dental
clinics in IL school buildings.
Companion Proposal
The community center pro-
posal was a companion to
legislation request for $12O
million interest-free Federal
loan for school construction
also approved by the board
yesterday. The District Rec
reation Board is the major
agency cooperating with the
District School Board to pro-
vide com munity services
through playground and build
ing facilities.
The school board will urge
the District Commissioners to
consider fayorably additional
community services in new
schools. One official pointed
out that space in neighborhood
schools would probably be
cheaper to build than separate
community centers.

said on television he had not
received any payment ''in any
way" for his services to the

+ Association. Senator Beall told
the Senate.
/ However, Representative Roo
sevelt told reporters earlier on
May 8 in Rockville that he
served as a paid officer Of the

Senator Beall charged on
the Senate floor that the tele-
vision statement was a direct
contradiction Of testimony Mr..
Roosevelt gave in 1858 to a
Senate Banking subcommittee
investigating savings and loan
associations.
At hearings, Mr.. Roosevelt
said he was being paid $4,000
annually as chairman of the
board of the Family Savings

apportlonment suit than the
contest against the unit sys-
Item.
He said reapportionment Of
seats in the General Assembly
would automatically revise the
unit system anyway.
Hearing Set Monday
A hearing on the reappor-
tionment suit Is scheduled for
Monday. If the judge strikes
down Maryland's legislative ap-
portionment system, as most
officials expect him to do, Gov.
Tawes plans to call an imme-
diate session Of the General As
Sembly to reapportion legisla-
tive seats.
Under the present setup the
General Assembly is controlled
by the rural areas. Presumably
any reapportionment plan
would give the metropolitan
areas more representation.
Since the unit system of yot-
ing in primaries is tied directly
to the makeup Of the General
Assembly, reapportionment of
Assembly seats would alter the
unit system to the benefit of
the metropolitan areas. Each
county and legislative district
OF Baltimore has a unit vote
equal to the number of mem
bers 1t has in the. General AS
Sembly.
Another Suit Stands
Three times since 1850, can
didates for Statewide offices
have received a majority of
popular votes but lost the cleo
ton on unit votes. This did not
happen in any Of the Tuesday
races, although a shift of a few
votes in some Of the contests
could have done it.
Mr.. Scanlan said his view
Is to await results of the re-
apportionment suit before max
ing any further attack on the
unit vote system.
However, a Baltimore candi-
date who filed suit in Federal
Court against the unit system
said he will press his suit de-
spite the outcome Of Tuesdays
primaries.
1t was filed by Samuel Co.
lotta, Republican nominee for
the House of Delegates. The
State has been ordered to file
an answer to the Cullotta suit
by Monday.
A Baltimore legislator, mean
while, said he would introduce
legislation in the General As
sembly to eliminate the unit
system. Delegate j. Joseph
Curran, jr., Democrat Of Balti-
more, said the bill might be
introduced during q special
session later this month or dur
ing the regular 90-day session
next January.

Inadvertently. received two
checks, each for $500, from
Family" Mr.. Roosevelt said.
They were refunded in August,
1883"
The Congressman explained
the checks were refunded be-
cause he had mo financial ar
rangement" with Family. His
financial arrangements were
made with the related Ameri-
can Council Of Independent
Savings & Loan Associations.
1t does appear in the Senate
transcript that money was being
paid from Family. Mr.. Roose-
welt acknowledged. This was
the reason he saw for what
he termed Senator Beall'S
confusion"
Mr.. Roosevelt added that II
therefore was "a factual state
ment" that he had received no
money from Family and that
he had so advised the grand
jury.
Montgomery County States
Attorney Leonard T. Hardy as
serted today that Mr.. Roose-
velt's services for the two saw
ings and loan organizations
were really one and the same.
He added: Sherman Cohen
organized both associations and
the American Council of Inde-
pendent Savings and Loan AS
sociations only had two mem
bers. Family and one other as
ISOLATION"
Mr.. Hardy said he would takt
the matter up with the Mont

the savings and loan situation

Roosevelt testified yesterday
it was five to six weeks ago he
was placed on the payroll and
made chairman Of the board.
Mr.. Cohen-He received his
first pay check.
Senator Capehart-He has
already been paid?
Mr.. Cohen-Yes.
Senator Capehart - How
much has he been paid?
Mr.. Cohen Whatever the
pro rata salary has been. He
has received his pay from that
point on as chairman of the
board of the association.
Senator Beal quoted Mr..
Roosevelt as saying on tele-
vision last week:
Contrary to reports, l was
not paid in any way for my
services during those so days
with Family. But my inveS-
t!gation of circumstances of
that business by an independ-
ent attorney and auditor pro-
.duced what I thought were cir
cumstances which unless
changed required by resigna-
ton. I could not get them
changed. Therefore I immedi-
ately resigned"
Senator BeaIl said he con-
sidered it his duty to disclose
the old hearing records be-
cause he had initiated some Of
