 Congressman Ralph J. Rivers, incumbent, a Democrat, is unop- posed, but there is stiff battle to see who will oppose him in Mo- vember between Lowell Thomas, Jr., and Henry s. Pratt, the former is given slight edge.

Frank Small. jr., Republican
candidate for governor, said
yesterday that "the mess" sur

Democrats had never adopted
a constitution which might
give the membership a real

Typifying one segment of

bound to get the nomination

Guide Rops
Bid to Drop
Planning Unit

Scrapping Of Maryland's in
dependent suburban planning
commission would "jeopardize
the checks and balances" of
local government. Gilbert Guide,
Republican candidate for the
State Senate in Montgomery
County, said yesterday.
The proposal was one Of 10S
recommendations contained in
q private consultant's report
to the Democratic-controlled
County Council.
Mr.. Guide said the recon-
mendation to break up the
Maryland National Capital
Park and Planning Commission
mirrored the thinking of the
minority radical faction which
now controls the Democratic
Party Tin Montgomery.
"Since this group has been
unable to impose it's opinions
and ideas on the Planning
Commission" Mr.. Guide said,
lit is attempting to destroy the
Commissions expertise and OBJ
jectivity by bringing it under
the complete political domina-
ton Of the Council"
Under the present set-up
half of the planning commits
sion is appointed by the Mont
gomery Council and the other
half by the Prince Georges
County Commissioners. The
consultant's suggestion was tC
make the planning group a
strictly one-county body to ad.
wise the county council, and all
planning and zoning activities
would be handled by a depart
ment of the county govern
ment.
THE grievous error in the
report" Mr.. Guide said, sis the
assumption that our citizens
would benefit by thrustine
planning squarely into politics. "

Nd. Scientist
Kills Whale
With Drugs

ANNAPOLIS. Aug. 18 (AP)
"A Maryland scientist has
proved his theory-whales can
be taken easily with a drugged
needle.
DR.. Vagn Flyger of the ma
tural resources institute of the
University Of Maryland caught
a 16-foot Beluga whale during
his six-week trip in the Arctic.
Instead of using the conven-
tional harpooning methods, DR..
Flyger used a weapon which re-
sembled a single barrel shotgun
except that it was rifled.
His weapon fired a cartridge
similar to a shotgun shell but
it propelled an automatic hy-
podermic needle carrying a
lethal dose of a drug.
THE trip was very success
full" said DR.. Fyger who re-
turred from the mouth Of the
Mackenzie river in Canada's
Arctic Northwest Territory last
week.
I'VE found that the drug
killed whales quickly and effec-
lively. We also got an idea of
the proper doses Of the drug
We should use in Staying q
whale" he said.
The DaniSh-born 4O-year-old
research associate professor said
he believed that the use OF
drugs in capturing whales would
have to be tried on the larger
Of the mammals before they
could replace the commercial
method Of using explosive har-
poonS.
II believe that II drugs can
be successfully used on larger
whales" he said, Commercial
companies might want to en-
ploy the method"

Maxwell Alpert, acting chair
man of the city's Democratic
State Central Committee, said
the groups hurried meeting

am. Monday telegram because
pressure from the State ad-
ministration was making some
members drop their support of
Mr.. Vale.
He declined to say who ex-
erted or was subjected to pres
sure. Those pressured were told
they held State jobs through
the grace Of the administration,
Mr.. Alpert said, adding:
Mr.. Vale was the runner
up in the primary and the logi-
cal successor to Mr.. Harris. II
we had not acted when we had
the vote, we would have been
accused Of political stupidity"
The nomination two days

Maryland Date Set
In Maryland, the contract
for River road calls for COM
pletion Of two miles Of road
for the start Of traffic by De-
cember /. The road is to be
a dual-lane. separated urban
highway.
The National Park Service Is
planning to complete q four
mile section Of the George

in Montgomery County next
summer. Late in the year. or in
1864. the parkway will be COM

Mrs. Galleher said that the
SMSG method has been used
only as a teaching supplement
in some Northern Virginia
school systems. particularly in
Fairfax County, but that its
value has not yet been firmly
established.
Purpose Of the experiment
will be three-fold:
l. To determine the relative
extent to which students in
the two groups have acquired
desired mathematical Skills.
2. To what extent students
have developed an understand
ing of the structure of math-
ematics.
3. To what extent interest
has been developed in the fur
her study Of mathematics.
Opportunity for Pupils
Later. Mrs. Galleher said,
the experimental system would
give children an opportunity
for mental gymnastics"
Board members agreed that
results of the experiment would
be placed for evalustion in the
hands Of a new division Of re-
search created Friday.
The board is due to adopt
a list Of approved textbooks
in December for the next six
years. Results Of the Prince
Williams County study, how
ever, will not be known until
next spring and they cannot
be evaluated until later.
Publishers of a number Of
mathematical textbooks. Mrs.
Galleher said. contend they
have incorporated some Of the
SMSG materials into their new
publications. to varying degree.
Consequently, she added. the
board will be faced in Decem-
Der with the question Of ap-
proving textbooks which may |
contain some Of the new ap-
proaches to mathematics which |
are still unproven in Virginia.

A three-mile portion Of the
Capital Beltway and the Cabin
John Bridge should be ready
for Virginia and Maryland traf-
fic by December /, officials
said yesterday.
In Virginia, the beltway is
nearly complete from Route 7
north to the bridge. Highway
officials have been putting fin
ishing touches on the Virginia
approaches to the Cabin John
Bridge, and expect the ap-
proaches to be finished this fall.
In Maryland. the contracts
for the bridge and the one-mile
portion Of beltway north to

be ready for traffic by De-
cember /.
The part from River road
north to Route 70-S (Route
24o), is scheduled for compile
ton next fall. This will be the
first interstate bypass around
Washington.
Contract Pending
However. traffic from the
north will have to get off the
Beltway at Route 7 for two
years at least. A vital link will
not be completed between Route
7 and Arlington boulevard for
some time. because the State
has not let a contract to bridge
the Washington & Old Do
minion Railroad.
The State negotiated to pur-
chase the entire railroad line
with the idea that 1t would not
have to build numerous over
passes for state roads in Alex
andria, Arlington and Fairfax
Counties. However. almost every
local government in northern
Virginia protested. and the plar
fell through.
