At the Monday night meeting
of the commission, the Rev. Mr..

They involved two white men

white man who forfeited a
$3.50 collateral posted on a dis
orderly conduct charge resulting
from his repeatedly driving
through a Negro neighborhood
and cursing the residents.
In calling on the council TO
take a stand, the outgoing COM

position had been a factor in an
increase in racial tension with.

project has been planned for 80
sixth-grade pupils of the Four
Corners Elementary School Oct.
I'll at Mar-Lu-Ridge, a cabin
resort in the. Catoctin Mountains
of Frederick County.
The five-day program will be
a continuation of an educational
procedure inaugurated in the

not available within the class.
room. This year it will center
on science, with the outdoor
studies to be devoted to meteor
ology, animal and plant life,

water resources.
A staff composed of the
school principal, three regular
teachers and a science super
visor will be supported by rep
resentatives of county, state and
federal agencies during the out
door study program. The faculty
and pupils will be housed in
heated cabins, with meals to be
provided by a cook and helper,
at a cost of SIS a pupil for the
full period.

Council Gets
New Law on
Assemblies

A sharply reduced version of
a proposed ordinance governing
parades and public assemblies
was handed to members of the
County Council for study Tues
day, with indications pointing to
final approval of the measure
next week.
The new proposal, described
by sponsoring member DR..
Thomas A. Wilson as more
lenient" than others in effect in
surrounding Jurisdictions, was
modified to restrict its provi-
sions primarily to large-scale
assemblies on public premises.
Removed from the new ordi-
nance were originally-suggested
restrictions on virtually all
types of public gatherings which
would have covered church and
parent-teacher meetings; social,
business and fraternal gather
ings and public assemblies in
Guiding racial demonstrations
along with other similar types
of get-togethers.
1t does not specifically men,
ton racial demonstrations, but
would make them subject to
permit control, along with va
riety of other types of congre-
cation. 1t does permit picketing
by bona fide" labor organiza-
tons without advance permits
when such picketing 'is the
result of a labor dispute"
A new Introductory paragraph
asserts: 'It is hereby declared to
be the public policy of Montgom-
cry County that the right of
its citizens to peaceably as
semble and to petition their
government for the redress of
grievances, but that in conson-
ance with peace and good order
and in furtherance and promo
ton of the public convenience,
comfort, peace, safety and gen.
eral welfare, and in the interest
of all its citizens, it is desirable
and proper to establish stand
ards and regulations for the use
of the public streets, sidewalks,
buildings and lands of Mont
gomery County.
A brief discussion of the re-
vised measure produced COM
ments from Councilman Jerry
Williams and Grover Walker
that they didn't think such ac-
ton was necessary and a retort
from Kathryn E. Diggs that
you don't lock the barn door
after the trouble starts"
Mary Hepburn, only member
of the council who appeared un-
ready to act this week, asked for
time to review the measure,
especially its provisions of up
to a $1,000 fine and six months
in jail, until next Tuesday.
She noted that Council Presi-
dent John A. Floyd had express
ed similar concern over the
harshness of the penalties in the
county's public accommodations

rejected by the council last
week.

For the sum of $1,000 the
Montgomery County school
board is seeking to acquire a
tract Of about half an acre that
has been used as a school site
for almost 80 years despite the
fact that the board never had
formal title to the property.
The tract in the Oakmont
subdivision was purchased by a
county resident in 1851 when 1t
was put up for sale by the coun.
ty due to lack of taxes, and was
bought from the purchaser in
1857 by Louis Sweadner, OF

leading to institution Of a coun.

willingness to settle for the
$1,000 figure, which he said rep
resented outof.pocket invest.

and legal fees. At its regular
meeting Monday night, the
school board authorized its at.
torney to proceed with the out

The property involved in the
controversy is adjacent to a
site owned by the school board,
on which a school building APP
