age needs, in an effort to obtain funds for such project as is now pending. This project failed at that time - it is recalled - because moneys were not available to the city at the time Again in 1862 Philleo was put under contract to update the 1857 survey in an ef- fort to gain our goal - this time successfully.
 In Fridays Council meeting, the Philleo firm presented a contract for city approval, in bid to gain the engineering work on the pro- ject. This contract was finally ap- proved by the Council, and will go into effect immediately - Sept. 16 - and their engineering firm will commence turning out plans for immediate compliance with the To-day ruling.
 The engineering fees are set at 5.559o of the cost of the project. This fee is established by rules governing the American Society of Civil Engineers fee schedules. In addition to the fee covered by con- tract, the engineering firm ad- vised that another S8,250 should be allowed for expenses outside of the contract - roughly broken down as Additional surveys S2,OOO, Drilling $2,OOO, Transpor- tation of personnel $500, Travel time $700, Room and board S75O, Plans $500, and borings $500. Through various credits and con- tingencies the project survey and engineering work will cost the city approximately $73,000. This, pointed out MT. Philleo, is well within the HHFA and HEW esti- mate, and will win their approval.
 MT. Philleo reminded the Coun- cil that the project must commence on February 5th and be 50 per cent complete within three months - May 5th. This was cause for concern among the members, but the general opinion was that it will be done somehow.
 According to Mayor Hoover, the first items on the project agen- da will be the acquisition of the

RICHMOND, Nov. (AP).-
The Fourth United States Cir
cult Court of Appeals yesterday
ordered reinstatement of an
anti-discrimination injunction
against the Arlington County
School Board.
The courts action. in an
opinion written by Chief Judge
Simon E. Sobeloff, said the
process of transition in Airing
ton from a segregated to a de-
segregated school system is not
yet complete. Therefore, he
wrote, there is no reason for
removal of the injunction.
The injunction had been lift
ed in March, 1862, by Judge
Oren r. Lewis of Federal Dis
trict Court. 1t had been issued
in July, 1856, but subsequent
court fights delayed actual
desegregation of Arlington's
schools until February. 1859.
In March, 1861, the Arlington
School Board formally re-
scinded policies upholding
school segregation.
Although the county's public
schools technically have been
desegregated since 1859, the
appeals court said that "obedi-
ence to the injunction for so
short a time is not sufficient
to warrant its termination"
It added that it was not rul-
ing on several new policies
adopted by the Arlington
School Board after the segre-
CATION policy was rescinded. 1t
said the new policies first must
go through a testing period and
their results evaluated by the
District Court in light Of the
anti-diScrimination injunction.
Mrs. Ruth Cox, chairman of
the Arlington School Board,
said her feeling is that AIRING
ton has been proceeding in an
orderly fashion toward desegre-
CATION. 1t seems we have COM

A Prince Georges County
tavern owner has succeeded in
forestalling the revocation Of a
liquor license worth $4,000
while she tries to appeal one of
two convictions for selling
whisky on Sundays.
At the same time, it was dis
closed at a special meeting of
the liquor board yesterday, that
a county legislator tried unsuc-
cessfully to purchase the tav-
ern and license.
The liquor board met to hear
the pleas Of attorney Harry E.
Taylor, jr., a former board
member, on behalf of Dorothy
o. Good, owner Of the Colonial
Inn on Route 301.
He asked that the board stay
its October II order revoking
her license. Under State law,
two convictions within two
years means mandatory revo-
cation. Mr.. Taylor said Miss
Good should be allowed to run
her business while he tries to
appeal her latest conviction.
Wait For Court Action
The board voted unanimous
| ly behind closed doors on q mo-
ton by Don Freeman to stay
the revocation until the Circuit
Court acts on the appeal. They
added the license cannot be
transferred In the meantime
The board has the power to
stay q revocation while appeals
are under way.
Mr.. Taylor produced a paper
yesterday entitled Contract Of
Sale and Lease Agreement,
bearing the names Of Dennis H.
Marshall. q member Of the
Maryland House Of Delegates,
and Dorothy o. Good. It was
dated September 6.
It calls for the sale of the
Colonial Inn for $4,000. In a
suit filed in Circuit Court, Mr.
Taylor stated that Miss Goods

that the contract has been

Offer RefuseS
Mr.. Marshall, who tried
fruitlessly in the legislature to
secure passage OF seven liquor
reform bills, said Miss Good

his $4,000 check for a deposit.

the Inn, he said, he did not
know she had been charged
with a second violation. A few
days after she was convicted
