Superintendent Harry MikelsOn
said Tuesday that the natural
growth of the city in itself will
cause a serious problem by the
time the next school term rolls
around. Students have been trick

is an all-time high for Sidney, he
said.
Generally recommended and ac-
cepted standards for effective
teaching limits a classroom to 25
students, he pointed out. Section

A preliminary move by the Dis

Home Of Future Described
By ANDY LANG
AP Newsfeotures Writer

which would affect the de-
sign Of houses along about
1882.
Cost Seen Factor
Some of these factors"
said Mr.. York, will be the
high cost Of land, the high
cost of utilities, the desira-
bility Of privacy, less use of
the automobile and more of
the helicopter, the develop
ment of solar heat, a wider
acceptance Of open planning,
more use Of the "air wall"
and continued recognition Of
the home as q status
symbol"
The high cost of land and
utilities would be taken care
Of by the use Of q cluster
housing plan in which the
dwelling unit would be part
of a group Of houses with q
common walk and by the use
of shorter street frontages.
Large rear yard gardens
and sun decks overlooking the
garden would solve the pri-
vacy problem. There would
be an aircraft landing area
on the roof, readily accessible
to the rooms below.
Built for Solar Heat
Solar heat collection de-
vices would be incorporated
into the architectural design.
The floor plan layout would
open the main rooms on the
main floor level and upstairs
to the garden and sun deck
area. Air walls would be used
between the living rooms and
gardens.
And luxury would be ap-
parent at the front entry by
long vistas from the front
foyer through the house to
the rear garden area.
Mr.. York said some Of the
conveniences used today
would still be popular 20 to
Is years from now. But there

You can do completely
without a crystal ball in pre-
dieting that there will be
quite a few changes in home
design and construction in
the next 20 or Is years.
But what kind of changes?
We asked the noted archi-
tect, Herman H. York, to
give us some idea of what the
home of the future might be
like. He started by explaining
that there are a number of
probably influencing factors
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1962-02-17

would be changes in water
supply and sewage disposal
sustemS. And costs of the
house would be kept reason
able because the parts would
be put together in far fewer
pieces, reducing the labor re-
quired at the site.

came to the conclusion that
economic factors-the fear OF
losing hard-won financial secur-
ity-waS what prevented most
childleSs middle-claSS Negroes
from adopting children. The
persons interviewed were not
asked why they themselves had
not adopted. but why they
thought other childleSs Negroes
had not.
In the new study, white
couples will be asked the same
set of questions on their feel
ings toward adoption and
adoption agencies. and their
knowledge Of adoption pro-
cedures.
DR.. DeaSy said she is investi-
eating the possibility that the
rate Of adoption among white
couples has been decreasing in
recent years. The couples to be
interviewed will be mostly from
Washington suburbs and Bal

Court REEVES
Liquor Protest
InGeOrgetown

A group of Georgetown resi-
dents has been given q second
chance in District Court to at
tack issuance of a liquor license
to the 1889 Restaurant near
their homes.
The new opportunity was
provided through a ruling yes
terday by District Court Judge
David A. Pine when he allowed
the filing of a supplemental
complaint to the original court
suit filed last year.
Last February, District Court
Judge Edward M. Curran dis
missed the original COMPLAINT
saying he had nothing to
rule on since the 1861 liquor Ii
cense sought by the restaurant
hackers was never actually is
sued by the Districts Alcoholic
Beverage Control Board.
The ABC board had ordered
the license granted, but only on
condition that the restaurant
hackers would complete re-
modelling of the building at
T hir t y-sixth and Prospect

ments of other District agen-
cies. These conditions were not
met, and the restaurant applied
for a 1862 license last February

a permit to continue to use
the land.
Ladder Mackall, Washington
attorney for the B&O, argued
that the railroad now has q
Congressional franchise per-
hitting public use of the land
for the tracks in perpetuity
The lawyer said that the rail-
road, if it accepted the Dis
trict'S proposal for a permit ir
exchange for full title 10 the
land could at any time face
immediate revocation Of the
District permit.
Impairs Right
Mr.. Clark conceded this, ex-
planning that the District Com
missioners have no legal power
to grant perpetual use Of public
land to a private concern.
Judge Holtzoff decided that
the District may not take title
to the land through condemna-
ton because this would "im-
pair the right Of the B6CO to
public use Of the land" as
granted by Congress. After the
ruling, Mr.. Mackall said he is
still convinced that agreement
can be reached between the
District and the railroad.
He said the railroad is will
ing to grant an easement to
the city to erect the piers that
will hold the ramp.
