The defunct Project Marl-
boro Home Rule Charter CON-
mittee has been reactivated in
a surprise move which gives
Prince Georges County two
groups campaigning for a
change in its government.
William j. Avrutis an
nounced last night at a meet
ing of the County Civic Fed
Grafton that the Project Marl-
boro group is being reborn. He
also released a report entitled
Government of men and not
Of laws" which blasts the cur
rent commissioner form of
county government.
Also campaigning for a char
ter in Prince Georges is the
Home Rule Charter Commit
tee, which officially began its
drive Monday. Its membership
is made up Of many who were
in the original Project Marl-
boro group of last year.
Mr.. Avrutis said he and
James F. Vance, co-chairmen
of the federation's Government
Committee, expect that
an effort may be made to per-
petuate either the present form
of government or its equivalent
under a charter"
Seeks TO Erect Standard
Referring to the other char
ter committee hfr. Avrutis said,
I'VE are not opposing any
group. We are SIMPLY erecting
a standard around which our
fellow citizens who see the
situation as we do may rally"
According to their report,
the two men see the situation
in Prince Georges as: Under
today's conditions. this gov
ernment'S form is such, and the
absences of safeguards so far
reaching. as to result in great
Inefficiency and danger to the
public interest.
Many of the criticisms leveled
are similar to those contained
in the widely known Project
Report issued in 1861,
which was the basis for the
federation's drive for charter
government.

boro group was torn by inter-

The cadets would not be as
signed to any patrol duty until
they reached 81. Several other
cities now have similar cadet
programs.
The advantage of the plan
police officials say. is that il
keeps high school graduates
interested in police work who
might otherwise drift into 9TH

until they became 81.
The $32,524,000 police budget

The
Rambler
Forecasts
A Riot
By JOHN MeKELWAY

This Sunday, after church,
a number Of interesting riots
will take place at D. c. Sta
dunn.
Similar riots will also take
across the country.
They have become almost
traditional with the increas-
ing popularity of profes-
'sional football and the abil-
ity Of the various teams to
score more touchdowns.
And, in certain situations,
and from certain vantage
points, the riots are often
: far more spectacular than
the game.
Last Sunday, the Rambler
was lucky enough to fall in
with a group of RedSkin fol-
lowers who have brought at
tendance at pro games to a
Science.
Routes to and from the
! stadium have been planned
and memorized by all mem
bers Of the group. There are
! split second schedules to be
followed. They operate as a
team, with much precision,
following silent commands.
Any member Of the team,
for example, can step right
in and handle the transpor-
tation. There Is never any
doubt over who is RESPONSE
bic for supplying the ice, the
refreshments, the sand
wiches, or who will carry the
hamper up from the parking
lot. There is also a man who
handles all financial matters
involving tickets.
They know the best place
to sit, having studied pre-
liminary plans for the sta
dium while 1t was still "a
dream"
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1963-10-04

THE GROUP is men,
toned because they intro
duced the Rambler to the
riots. For some reason, he
had never. really seen one up
close. They have been going
on for years, but not with
such intensity.
The group sits in the meg
canine at the west end Of
the stadium, directly behind
the goal post.
They have a little counter
running along in front of
: them where they can place
their sandwiches.
The Rambler was happily
munching a chicken liver
and egg sandwich when the
Dallas Cowboys scored at our
end of the field. There was
a strange, rumbling noise
Immediately beneath us as
the Cowboys prepared for
the extra point, or CONVEX
sion.

nine stood up and looked,
not at the field, but down.
Below US, a scramble In
slow motion took place. Peo-
ple-they were of all ages
were getting into position to
receive the kick. The Ram
!. bier noticed a little blond
woman sitting quietly. They
were gathering around her
and she could not under
stand why.
The ball sailed through
The uprights and landed in
i sthe vicinity of the little
woman. There was a furious,
mad, swarm of bodies con-
( sverging and swaying. For all
the Rambler knows, they bit
lone another and tore hair
and threw rabbit punches.
The little lady disappeared
for about two minutes. After
ga large boy had come up
with the football and left
with some policemen, she
swas noticed, standing up
land looking blankly around.

A member of the mezza-
s.nine group explained to the
Rambler that the riots were
pretty much the same at
Griffith Stadium after each
touchdown. But here" he
said, "the people have more
mobility"

The discussion OF the re-

cation into PEPCO's rates.
charges, services and profit
levels.
The hearings were put of
until November /. They had
originally been postponed one
month, to today. 49,
The company asked for the
delay so that 1t could discus,
its suggestion" for the s2.(
million deduction in rates. At.
torney Richard w. Emory OF
B altimore representing the
company, said that the COM
pany had suggested the re-
duction with the view to
avoiding a long, drawn-out
rate proceeding"
The company firmly believes
that it would be in the best
interest Of all parties to resolve
the issues without extended
hearings" Mr.. Emory said.
The p. q. c. opened its in
vestigation July 20 after it dis
closed that the company's
profit rate has been exceeding
the level authorized in 1853,
The effect Of the r. U. C.'s in
vestigation order was to re-
quire the company to Justify
its present profit rate, P. U. C.
officials said.
A few days before the in
veStigation was ordered, the
company proposed a $400, 900
annual reduction. The P. u. C.
indicated that this was not
enough. Late in August, the
company began discussions OF
