Rain, fog, wind-certainly
the mention of these COM
panions of foul spring and
summer weather doesn't give
the average photographer the
urge to grab up his camera
equipment and hurry out
doors for a shooting session.
But the truth is that many
fine picture possibilities
abound amidst these ad-
mittedly unpleasant sur
roundings. Let's look at each
one critically:

Delay Due
In City's
Renewal

With Rockville's Urban
Renewal program running
well behind its original time
table, Urban Renewal Direc-
tor Peter Clancy told the
Sentinel this week the city
is confident it can begin to
acquire property before the
end of the year.
The original time table had
pegged September as the month
when acquisition would get un.
der way. Later, this was moved
to "early fall"
Cheney said delays of this
sort are mot unusual in as large
and complicated a program" as
that produced by the County
Seat. Further, that the city now
has supplied all additional in
formation requested by Federal
authorities and this now is I'M
der review by the Federal
agency in its Philadelphia
offices.
After approval there, Cheney
added, the Rockville plan will be
reviewed by a central office in
Washington. The Washington
phases of the review, he said,
twill take about three weeks"
A planned public hearing in
Rockville on the whole Urban
renewal program cannot be
held, Cheney stated, until the
go-ahead signal is received from
Federal authorities. 1t is expect.
ed that at least six weeks will
elapse before the go-ahead
comes through to hold the hear.

Of the loans the city must make
in order to purchase.
Despite the delays in actual
purchase, Cheney said he be-
lieves Federal approvals will
come through in time to begin
acquisition before the end of
1863" In this event, actual con-
struction on rehabilitation of
the midtown area will get under
way next SPRING, he said.

Interviewed only a month
after the Amidon plan was in
troduced, Mrs. Coburn and her
faculty of seven are enthused
over participating in the expert
ment and have very cohesive
feeling, because we're all doing
something new"
Frankly, we haven't been in
this long enough to know
whether it's going to be a COM

feet everything that does not
harm the children should be

Principal Says Amidon Teaching
Is Not So Revolutionary Here

The school principal head
ing Montgomery County's
only tryout of the Amidon-
"back to the basics"- sys-
tenn of education says it isn't
half as revolutionary as most
people, including the School
Board, apparently think.
"Some see this as a great
revolution" says youthful-look-
ing Dorothy Coburn, principal of
the North Kemp Mill Elemen-
tary School, where the School
Board launched the famed Ami.
don School plan this fall.
"But 1 don't think my teach
ers here really feel it's that COM
pletely different or unique from
what we've been doing in this
county for a long time. Perhaps
people just aren't aware of it."

to head the local experiment

system, five as a principal of

Here's the way it works:
It's almost like a crossword
puzzle. The first clue across is
this: Each year is a MIL
STONE as we grow older" So
all you do is insert the missing
letter. This week we're going
to give you a strong hint. The
word, we promise you, Is either
MILESTONE or MILESTONE.
So take your pick. One or the
other is the correct answer, you
have our word.
The second clue In the puzzle
is this: "A play with four AC--
S would be somewhat unusual"
Well, as you know most plays"
that are dramatic offerings
have three acts, a few Of them
only two, and few II any have
four. So the word could be
ACTS. Also as you know, you
can make plays, good and bad,
in bridge, for example, and it's
awful nice to have ACES when
you're playing bridge.
So, you have our word, the
correct answer is either ACES
or ACTS. Take your pick. And

basic difference is the fact that
under the Amidon plan basic

"While many teachers give
homework in our school system,
all teachers here do So" she ex-
plains. while teachers through
out the system are allowed to
teach the way they feel most
comfortable teaching, the way
they feel their students are
learning best, here everyone is
told to teach the same way at
the same time-and that's the
way we're going to do it."
Asked whether rote learning,
emphasis on the basics, and
strict classroom discipline could
not be considered special fea-
lures of the Amidon plan, Mrs.
Coburn laughed:

The questions involve smok-

careful preparation a Montgom-

first of its type in the United

of smoking with their students,

Rejection

Is Weighed
By ELY Bradley
Sentinel Reporter

While the School Board
ponders what it will do to-
night in response to the
County Councils flat refusal
to provide emergency funds
for hiring 80 new teachers,
close observers foresee little
hope of success in any court
action they take.
"The courts of Maryland are
not at all inclined to substitute
their judgment for what a gov
erning body decides in public
works programs including
schools - within its jurisdic-
tion," said Senior Assistant
County Attorney Richard J. Sin
coff.

Dlggs, who initiated the COun-
ellis rundown Of the fund re-
quest Tuesday.

faced with "two or three alter
natives" of action, Board MEM
Der William z. Coyle said in adj
vance of a special meeting to
discuss the crisis at 8 o'clock
tonight at Board of Education
headquarters In Rockville,
'But what our legal counsel
recommends, well abide by"
promised Coyle, who last week
made an eloquent detailed 'last
ditch" appeal to the Council for
$4,000 In surplus funds TO re-
lleve a teacher shortage.
His request was refused by
the Council this week on the
grounds the facts he presented

County Attorney Robert G.

In Tobin's new opinion, de-
divered Sincoff, the Council has
no authority under the char
ter's emergency appropriation

fund request.
Sincoff reiterated Tobin's
earlier reference to court rul-
ing defining an emergency as
"a sudden, unexpected and UNI
foreseen condition or occurrence
in municipal affairs of such pub
lie gravity and exigency as to
require forthwith municipal &c.

8 Support
Sewer Line
Extensions

The "deluge" of requests
which County Council president
John A. Floyd said recently he
had received asking the Council
to expedite sewer service to
Olney and Sandy Spring trickled
down to eight letters, review
of the Council correspondence
this week showed.
Submitted after Floyd said
he had asked numerous callers
to put their feelings in writing,
all voiced strong support for
the Councils recommendation
that construction of the sewer
lines be speeded.
The Washington Suburban
Sanitary Commission last week
adopted a five.year program
which calls for completion of
lines to serve the two communi-
ties by 1865 - sooner than
planned by the WSSC and over
the opposition of county plan
ners.
Six of the letters were written
by businessmen who expressed
interest in substantial future
growth of the two towns, and
another was written by a major
property owner in the Sandy
Spring area.
The eight supporting letters
came from: Thomas G. Oyster
of Howard County, who heads
a successful Wheaton surveying
firm; William c. Birely of Ash
ton, executive of a Washington
investment firm; DR.. A. d. Boni-
FAINT, and Edward F. Mayne of
the Wayne Realty Co., Olney.
Also, Floyd Cameron, an Ash
ton service station operator; F.
M. Hawkins, Jr., proprietor of
the Olney Foods store; Roger
White, owner of Whites Village
Store at Olney, and Mrs. Julia
E. McCarty, an Ashton resident
who expressed surprise at Mont
gomery General Hospital board
chairman's denial of any "cri-
teal" need for sewering the hos
pital, but told Floyd in her let
