All goals mentioned in the
current charter drive, exclud-
ing one, can be reached under
the present county commits
sioner form Of government in
Prince Georges County. accord
ing to Chamber of Commerce
committee study.
In a 17-page report made
last night, the County Govern
ment Committee noted that
bond issues now cannot be sold
by the commissioners without
authorization of the Maryland
Assembly.
The ch a m ber committee,
however. declared that con-
servative minded taxpayers"
believe the State Legislature
should hold public hearings and
ascertain the win Of the voters
before bond issues are sold.
These taxpayers believe this
is better than having the coun-
ty heads act in the dual capac-
ity of administrators and leg
islators, the committee added.
Law Can Be Changed
The group noted that bond
selling authority can be given
directly to the commissioners
by merely amending existing
law.
Containing a history of coun-
ty government, the report was
submitted by the 14-member
committee to a chamber meet
ing at the Prince Georges Coun-
try Club. The groups execu-
tive board already is on record
opposing a switch to charter.
Last nights report stated:
ut must be realized that
Prince Georges County is a
complex county with many
changing problems which con-
tinually confront the govern
ing body and any sudden de-
parture from established pro-
cedures might very well throw
the county out Of balance and
create much more hardship
than good"
The committee report added
that it is a relatively simple

Maryland Apportioning
Upheld in Calvert Test

PRINCE FREDERICK, Nd,
Sept. IS (AP).-The act adding
10 more seats for urban areas
to the Maryland House of
Delegates withstood an assault
on its constitutionality yester-
day in Calvert County Circuit
Court.
Judge John B. Gray, jr.,
ruled it could not be invali-
dated on grounds that voters
were deprived of a referendum.
The act became law 10 minutes
before a constitutional dead
line of June / for submitting
signatures to petition an act to
the ballot.
Attorneys for two Calvert
County residents who sought
to void the act said they may
not decide for several days
whether to appeal the decision.
Judge Gray heard 21a hours
of argument and then deliv-
cred his opinion orally from
the bench.
He said there was no ques-
ton that the people of Mary
land "were prevented from ex-
ercising their constitutional
right of referendum on the
bill"
But he said the fault for
this lay in the referendum
amendment to the State con-
stitution and not in the act
itself or in anything the legis-
lature or Governor did at the
special session at which it was
passed.
The amendment permitting
referenda stipuates that 5000
signatures Of the 10000 needed
to petition an act must be filed
with the secretary Of state
by June /.

100 -Yeor-OId Women
Finds World Worsens

Things do not look good in
the world to Manse Ward, and
she's had 100 years of expert
ence from which to Judge.
Mrs. Ward celebrated her
Tooth birthday last week, and
looking back over the years
from q rocking chair at the
home Of her daughter in Stew
arts Wharf, Va, feels things
are getting worse"
The worlds turned to Moth
ing" she observed. More sim
ful than ever"
Mrs. Ward has spent the
summer with her daughter,
Mrs. Ben Ashby, a few miles
from her birthplace at Pros
pect Neck. She spends the win
ter months with another
daughter, Mrs. Frank Coiner
Of 1920 Monroe street NV.
She recalled the day when
her younger brother called out
the warning, ''Damyankees," as
Union soldiers approached her
childhood home near Pungo-
league.
Gave Up Escape
Mrs. Ward related that her
mother gathered her children
about her and set out to escape
the oncoming army, but after
a mile decided to return and
wait. She said her mother
picked up an old clay pipe and
began putting vigorously to-
calm her nerves, a gesture that
later became a lifelong habit.
1t wasn't long, she added, un-
til her younger brother was
out playing In the yard with
the blue-uniformed soldiers.
Her first school teacher was
a cousin, Mrs. Ward recalled,
who was only a year older than
some of her male pupils.
Married In 1886
Mrs. Ward was married to
the late Thomas Dunton Ward
in a small church in Locust
mount in 1886. Mr.. Ward died
in 1918. The marriage produced,
besides the two daughters, ID
grandchildren. rs great-grand-
children and two great-great-
grandchildren.
Mrs. Ward maintains her
less than optimistic attitude
despite her feelings that her
favorite President, John F.
Kennedy. "is doing all he can"
But while the world may
have its problems, Mrs. Ward
isn't looking forward to any.
She's planning on another
birthday next year.

Bean BuII'

MILWAUKEE,. Aug. 9 (AP)
Charlie Metro. head coach
of the Cubs, accused Milwau-
kee Manager Birdie Tebbetts
of ordering Pitcher Jack Curtis
to throw a bean ball" last
night.
TebbettS promptly denied it.
1T was very deliberate" an
angry Metro said in the club
house after the Cubs had
trounced the Braves, 1874. 1T
was the most fragrant and
obvious case of throwing at a
hitter I've ever seem"
Metro was referring to a
pitch thrown by Curtis in the
ninth inning that sent Chi
cago Pitcher Glen Hobbie
sprawling in the dirt. 1t was
the fourth ball and got by
Catcher Bob Uecker. Ron
Santo. who was on third,
started for home and Uecker
threw to Curtis. who tagged
out the Cub player before he
got to the plate.
Curtis and Santo then
started to tangle. Within Sec
onds both benches were emp
tied as a free-for-all started.
Eddie Mathews, Milwaukee
third baSeman. grabbed Curtis
and Santo and wrestled both
to the ground. No one was
hurt and Curtis was elected
from the game. However.
Santos out was the third and
the Braves didn't have to re-
place Curtis.
Curtis formerly was with the
Cubs and came to the Braves
in a trade for Pitcher Bob
Bull.
