Welsh Rare Bit :
Waters the Topic

Labor Day is now only memory. The
children of the county have long since had
their paroles revoked and have been returned
to school; and I succeeded in staying in Mum
gummery County during the holiday without
contracting typhoid and avoiding prolonged
vacation
1t happened like this The urge to return
to sea set upon me as usual and nothing
would do but to pack up the family, dogs and
all and set out for Bethany Beach About
lunch time we arrived at my favorite crab soup
place, the Fisherman's Inn, which is about ten
miles on the wrong side of the Bay bridge,
when we heard from the weatherman that a
week long rain was coming UP from the Gulf
of Mexico. 1t was raining them and this, plus
the fact that couple of old men who smelled
of fish scales and poverty told us that they
would go to the western shore if they had
money to get across the bridge All of this
caused us to return to Mungummery County.
1t had been long trip to get lunch. We re-
turned to the longest drought since Mungum-
merry seceeded from Frederick County.
But this summer had its moments One of
them was at Seneca and several of them at
my old golf hang out: the River Road Run

About Seneca 1t was there that had nv

Open Space Solution?

The proposal by County Attorney Alfred H. Carter
generally limiting housing subdivisions served by
water or sewer lines would undoubtedly if approved re-
tard development in certain of the county substan-
tally.
That being the it is certain to run into hornets
nest OF opposition from interests But the proposal
certain to be welcomed enthusiastically by others.
Some such step, however is probably necessary and
we hope the general ideawhou going into the specifics
at the moments looked on with favor by the County
Council.
The alternative to such step what is now beginning
to happen to an increasing degree and that is houses with
wells and septic tanks hafacre lots Actually the So
called haf acre" lots half an acre at all but
only 10000 square feet-or lot only 100 feet wide by
zOO feet deep Both septic tank and well in such small
area are totally impractical from long term view but
with public water lines at least extended such lots the
arrangement can work reasonably well, particularly in
certain areas of the county.
Meanwhile as the opponents TO fveacre coming have
pointed out developments follow lines and the
swer to the countys open space problems may well lie
IN part In rigid control where water and sewer lines
are extended and equally firm establishment of minimum
lot sizes-somewhat larger than oneha acre-on which
homes dependent on septic tanks and wells may be built

From This Angle
Unamerican Americans

The term "unAmerican" is so ambiguous
and has been so loosely used and abused that
it should not be used unless it is clearly de-
fined. AS used here, it means those who do not
believe in the basic freedoms guaranteed by
our Constitution
In the middle pages of the Washington
Post for September 1862 is disturbing re.
port of paper delivered to the American
Political Science Association by Professor Her.
bert McClosky of the University of California.
Professor McClosky discusses a Gallup Poll
taken among 1900 members of the general
electorate and among 300 individuals (called
the political elite'C of the 1860 presidential
nominating convention
More than go per cent Of the 1900 voters
thought that the majority of politicians are
bought off by some private interest" that a
few people who do not even get known to the
voters" run the nation and that discussions
and issues are beyond the understanding of
most voters" (Only 20 to IS per cent of the
political elite" agreed) These opinions can.
not be called "unAmerican," but certainly
show lack of faith in our politicians and our
voters.
No doubt such views are correct about
some OF our politicians and some of our vot-
ers All OF us probably know voters who make
genuine effort to search the issues before
every election. All of us know of politicians
VINO are dedicated men of integrity.
Most of us as voters probably fall
short Of an about effort to understand the
issues just as politicians fall short of per-
lection, but that is no reason to give up
on democracy.
Can most voters understand the issues7
the facts required to determine the need for
atomic testing are not known to most of us
for the simple reason that they are confiden-

Register Now!
Barbara Kline

More than $4,000 adults in
Montgomery County will not
be able to vote Nov. 6 unless
they register by Sept. "a, 1862.
This is a disturbingly high
figure when viewed in the con.
text of other registration
figures. AS of May Is, 1862,
there were 145,763 registered
voters in the County including
S4,56 Democrats; 52,353 Re-
publicans and 1923 unaffil-
lated with either party.
To reduce the high ratio of
unregistered voters, a non-par-
tisan drive is being conducted
from Sept. Sept. "a. During
this period rowing registration
boards viii be set up at central
locations in all parts of Mont
gomery County. Unregistered
voters are urged to watch
newspapers for exact dates and
locations. Information is also

Library Need

Larry the Leopard has got

children using the Rockville
Public library showed remark
able ingenuity in finding a
place to attach a spot nut 1
am more amazed at the inge-
nuity of the library staff in
finding a place for Larry him
self. Isn't it about time the
Rockville public library was
expanded?
1t seems rather odd that the
county seat of the richest coun-
ty in the state should have the

most poorly housed library in
the county.
A few years ago when the
old autonomous Rockville IL
brary was absorbed into the
county system one of the
stronger arguments in favor
of the change was that the
county system would be bet
ter able to enlarge the ply
steal plant as well as to ex-
pand the services.
We have seen the expansion
Of the services to some extent
but not a thing has been done
about the building itself, as a
consequence, the enlarged col
lection, the paintings, and the
continuing influx of periodi-
Gals are housed in an made
quate, Anticipated structure.
The need for immediate and
future expansion seems rather
obvious with the Federal gov
eminent agencies building all
around us, a proposal for a
Junior college or university
within the confines of Rock
vile, and the citys desire to
attract scientific and labora-
tory type industry.
Since the Urban Renewal
Plan is to be made public with
in the next 2 or 3 months it
would seem appropriate that
the County Council take steps
to acquire the land to insure
the construction of a new,
modern library with adequate
room for expansion.
VIII one or more of the
wish-to-be Councilmen make
it point to strongly recon-
mend this acquisition?

Views DimIy
Gaylord Briley

In a recent issue of the Sem
tinel there was an article on
the Rockville Project at
Broome. There were several
statements about the success
of team teaching. 1 would like
to know where you got your
information? From the super
visors who sat in on one or
two of the most Informative
classes or from the teachers
who had half as much work
to do? Did you ask any of the
students? We are the ones who
have to learn from this method
of teaching.
AS ninth grade student, I
was pushed into this project.
In our supposed Civics class,
we studied problems of every
country but our own. We were
given pamphlets, costing hum
dreds of dollars, to study from.
Pamphlets, 1 might add, used
in college. No wonder ninth
grade students didn't UNDER
stand them. The many ques.
tons we had were rarely
answered because of the large
group and the fact that our
team of teachers" was too
busy with extra-curricular ac-
tivities to be worried with
teaching a class.
The large rooms that have
been made and are being PLAN
ned are silly. In such a large
room with so many people,
you must stand up and shout
to be heard. This is enough to
discourage timid students from
entering a discussion or asking
a question. So a few brave
souls will have the benefit in
stead of all.
Before any more changes,
like tearing down walls are
made at Broome, I'd like to
see a poll of students opinions

Library PIeu

Since the Rockville Library
is housed In a lovely, but in
adequate old building, which
was not designed to be used
for this purpose, and, since the
urban renewal plans are now
being made, l hope provision
will be included in these plans
for a modern library plant of
sufficient size to accommodate
Rockville for many years to
come.
A library is part of any
towns hub, and should be so
situated as to give the best
and most service.
1 trust every consideration
Is being given to such a pro-
posal.

1-WaY Playground

The residents of Crawford
Drive are to be complimented
on the new playground they
have acquired without charge
from the city of Rockville.
/ refer to the fact that since
part of Crawford Drive be-
came a one-way street on the
demand of petitioners, the
children of many of these peti.
TONERS use it as playground.
Ask any motorist.
A 6 pm. Monday-through-
Friday count made in one
block last week by my wife
while I clutched the wheel
tightly for fear of running
into some child showed the
following numbers of children
walking, riding, sitting, laying
or otherwise playing in the
roadway: 8, 10, II, 10, and 8.
The one-way petition was
circulated by parents concern
ed over the safety of their
children. Why don't they show
their concern by watching out
for their offspring and keep
ing them off the street? A
bit of parental action beats a
lot Of political action which
tries to throw on every casual
passerby the parents own re-
sponsibility.
The extreme inconvenience
to which many motorists are
put by the one-way would be
justifiable if the new traffic
pattern served to increase pub
lie safety. So far all it has
done is throw extra traffic on
other streets (which will no
doubt get up petitions of their
own, encourage drivers using
Crawford Drive to speed, and
create a street scene sugges-
tive of Hong Kong.
If everybody's in a petition
ing frame of mind, I suggest a
petition to give traffic viola
ton tickets to people whose
children are perpetual traffic
hazards.

Since becoming residents of
Rockville in late 1851, we
have been constant users of
the Rockville Public Library
and have considered it to be an
outstanding asset to the COM
munity. A good selection of
books and pictures, and a de-
lghtful friendly atmosphere
provided by Mrs. Miller and
her able staff make it a dis
tinct pleasure to visit the
library.
Unfortunately, the growth of
Rockville to date has not re-
suited in an attendant in
crease in library facilities. The
obsolete building, located in
the heart of Rockville, may
have been adequate in the
1950's but does not meet the
present day needs. Books,
magazines and pictures seem
to be accommodating at an ever
increasing rate and more per-
sons are utilizing the library.
Already this has caused UNI
satisfactory conditions and,
with the city's anticipated
growth, promises a steady de-
cline in service since nothing
can be done to provide addi-
tional space in the present
structure.
We therefore hope that steps
will be taken to provide a new
and expanded library under
the proposed urban renewal
plan so that once again the
city can take pride in library
facilities.
