and learn about career fields
at first hand in the two-part
project, stated by volunteers.
A group Of high school
juniors today met at the
National Gallery of Art to
start the student-guide phase
Of the program.
Similar groups will begin ses-
sions next Thursday at the
Library of Congress and on
June 26 at the Smithsonian In
stitution. which are also CO.
operating with District schools
in the cultural phase of the
program.
Next year they will form part
Of a corps Of students who will
help guide small groups Of
fellow students through the
gallery on non-school days.

said Francia Mondine from Nc
Kinley High School as she
looked at the graceful 18th
century bronze statue in the
soaring rotunda Of the gallery.
Wants to Teach
Francia, who wants to teach
art, was with three equally in
terested Mckinley classmates,
Patricia Jones, Barbara LaGon
and Sharon Johnston.

Boyd from Cardozo High School
we're also in the group.
In the background strolled
Mrs. Arthur j. Goldberg, wife
of the Secretary Of Labor, who
helped organize the volunteer
program. Mrs. Goldberg said,
I'm going to come to every
one Of these tours"
DR.. Raymond s. Sites, who
is conducting the sessions,
asked why the saints at each
side of the Madonna in a 14th
century altar piece were
smaller.
Because they are not as
important" Sharon answered.
Correct, DR.. Sites said, ex-
planning that l4th century
painters were more interested
in ideas than realism.
Job Substitute
With temporary summer Jobs
in short supply for many stu
dents, a second phase Of the
project is to acquaint them
with long-range career posi-
bilitieS.
George Washington Univer-
sity Hospital, the District Public

among those aiding the World

Republican RoPs Chief
For Actions on Charter

nored when he asked Mr.. Beall
to help the Home Rule Charter
Committee select candidates for
the charter board several weeks
ago.
When the county commits
sioners announced their charter
board, Mr.. Bowyer said, they
had included Carlton Beall,
Robert Bealls brother.
Carlton Beall himself is a
former chairman of the Re-
publican State Central Com
mittee during a period when
Republicans fought home rule
charter after having gotten
into power by campaigning
for it," Mr.. Bowyer charged.
Mr.. Bowyer also said Mr..
Beall had counSeled Republi-
can candidates to remain silent
on the question of home rule
under charter in the county.
The present intra-party
squabbles began last Thursday
when Robert P. Smith, an in
Surgent member of the Demo-
cratic State Central Committee,
said he no longer could support
the reelection of three incum-
bent county commissioners be-
cause they didn't consult the
committee before naming the
charter board members.
Subsequently Mr.. Beall said
Mr.. Smiths attitude was "ri-
diculous and an insult to the
integrity of the Democratic
State Central Committee.

Representative Brewster,

running for the Senate, last
night charged Republicans
with using smear tactics by
dwelling on an Assateague Is

Capitol Hill.
The candidate fired back at
his Republican opponent. Ed
ward T. Miller, who has harped
on Mr.. Brewster's interest in
selling part of the island to the
State while a member Of the
Maryland Assembly.
The latest round in the con-
troversy over the 35-mile long
island off Maryland's Atlantic
coast came as the candidates
spoke separately before the
Prince Georges County Junior
Chamber of Commerce. Each
is seeking the seat of Senator
Butler, a Republican who de-
clined third term.
Questioned Actions
Mr.. Miller questioned Mr..
Brewster on how he would act

BALTIMORE, Sept. lex
pressing concern over the high
way accident toll in Maryland,
the State board of education
today voted to subsidize driver
education instruction in the
public schools.
In doing so, however, it
turned down a suggestion by
Richard Shifter, a board mem
Der from Bethesda, that the
course be added to the regular
school day or that the school
year be heightened.
Instead, the board went along
with a suggestion from State
Supt. Thomas @. Pullen, jr.,
that a program be worked out
without interfering with regular
instruction.
Morris w. Rannels, supervisor
Of transportation and safety,
told the board that of Mary
lands "a school systems, IA now
offer behind-the-wheel instruc-
ton and two others also offer
classroom training.
AllOtments Extended
Specifically before the board
was an amendment to a regula-
ton dealing with school allot-
ments to the localities. The
board agreed to extend the
States allotment for each
teacher based on units of 125
pupils enrolled in 80 hours OF
classroom instruction and six
hours Of behind the wheel
training.
In its original form, the pro-
posal might result in some
school systems substituting
driver training for regular aca-
demic subjects, Mr.. Shifter
feared.
DR.. Pullen countered that
State law and other board reg
ulations provided safeguards
against this and suggested an
expression Of policy that driver
education should not interfere
with the normal school pro-

This is a routine matter"
he, said. This has nothing to

Mr.. Funderburk told the
