Half of Public Works
Budget Goes to Roads

Montgomery County's Depart.
ment of Public Works, for
which a $50 million budget has
been recommended by County
Manager Mason Butcher, pro.
poses to spend almost half that
amount on new road projects in
the coming year.
From the largest individual
department expenditure request
ed in an overall county operat-
ing budget of $32,5 million,
Butcher said, more than $2.5
million would be devoted to
projects involving new road
facilities or extensive recon.
struction of existing roads.
Most of the major projects
would affect roads on the outer
fringe of the densely developed
suburban area of the county. A

Recalling events in the his

Bales, toastnlaster, pointed out
that the Wheaton Forest com.
munity lies close to the Wheaton
business district and has had
many zoning problems. 1t has
not been so much the protective
aspects of the association that
have welded the organization
together, he said, but a positive
desire for constructive commun

and environmental sanitation
and health.

Youth Held
In Assault
On Teacher
BY H-JOost POlak
Sentinel Reporter

Peoples Court Justice j.
Grahame Walker found prob
able cause Monday in the
case of a young Sandy Spring
truck driver charged with
burglarizing a Sandy Spring
Friends School teachers
room, then assaulting and at
tempting to rape her.
The action came despite de-
tense attorney Joseph Forers
contention that police evidence
in the case was illegally gained
and not admissible, and pa
rade of six 'alibi" witnesses, all
of whom testified 22-yearold
Clarence c. Evans was in bed
when the violation took place.
Forer is legal advisor to the
Montgomery County Chapter of
the NAACP.
Evans, who will now face the
grand jury, is charged with
breaking into the teachers
room at the school sometime
before 10 pm. March 4. Two
light bulbs were stolen from
the room, and when the teach
err returned about 10 she was
assaulted, and dragged out
doors. A second teacher heard
her screams and rescued her
after a scuffle with her assail-
ant.
Police Lieutenant Carroll H.
Durham testified that he and
three other policemen found
Evans in his home, about three
fourths of a mile from the
school later in the evening. He
was in bed, Durham said, and
both he and his clothes were
covered with mud.
The policeman testified that
he found light bulb in the
pocket of Evans's pants, which
were lying beside the bed.
He was taken to the police
substation at Wheaton, and
there put in a lineup. Neither
the victim, nor John D. Kucsma,
the second teacher, identified
him as her assailant in either
the lineup, or the hearing Mon
day.
Forer contended the police
entry into the Evans house with
out a warrant was illegal, and
asked that evidence gathered
there be ruled not admissible.
Judge Walker denied the mo.
ton.
1t. Durham said later that the
policemen went to the Evans
house because some of the Of
ficers knew a man or people
lived in that house that met
(the teacher's) description"
Evans sister, mother, and
three brothers testified that he
spent the evening in his bed in
the houses living room. They
said he had been drinking all
afternoon, and had gotten mud
dy when he fell off the front
porch.
Evans himself, and a 16-year
OLD neighbor, who said he was
watching television all evening
in the house, also testified that
the defendant was sleeping.
They all denied ever having
seen a light bulb.
Judge Walker set 5000 bail
on the burglary charge. Bail
on the charge of assault with
intent to rape will be set later.

YOUR HEALTH
FOOT HEALTH

"My corns are killing mel"
How many times have you heard
someone voice this complaint?
How many times have you
voiced it yourself? 1t may or
may not be corns that are caus-
ing the discomfort; but painful
feet, from a wide variety of
causes, ranks close to the COM
mon cold as one of Americas
health problems.
Your feet take a lot of pun
ishment in a lifetime of bearing
your weight around every day,
mostly on sidewalks, hard floors
and pavements. In fact, it's
a tribute to the anatomical
structure of the foot and ankle
that this part of the bodv does
not cause even more trouble.
There are several points to
remember in care of the feet:
= Be aware Of your feet and
that they need care and atten-
ton.
- Pay attention to minor
aches and pains which can lead
to more serious foot problems.
Seek professional advice
and assistance for foot disor-
ders.
- Include a foot examination
in your annual health checkup.
An important factor in foot
health is properly fitted shoes.
Corns and bunions often are
caused by undue pressure of
shoes on localized spots on the
feet or toes.
Children's shoes present their
own special fitting problems.
The youngsters feet are grow
ing rapidly and shoes must be
changed frequently.
There are many foot troubles
with a definite physiological
basis that require professional
attention by your physicians.
Some are birth problems, such
as club foot or other malforma-
tions. There are circulatory
problems such as inflammation
and narrowing Of the arteries
of the legs, nutritional diseases
such as ricketts,, metabolic prob
lens uch as diabetes or gout.
and fungus infections such as
athletes foot.
Don't neglect your feet. Mi
nor aches and pains may de-
velop into more serious prob
lens if ignored.

that he has been kept from vir-
