N Made Kennedy
Most FomiIior Visitor

There was the face Of SELF
controlled Jacqueline Kennedy
bending to her children during
services in the Capitol. There
was Caroline putting out a
small, white-gloved hand to
touch the coffin. And, there
was that appalling moment
when Lee Harvey Oswald was
shot down in Dallas police
headquarters.
So very much has crowded
before our eyes and our
emotions have been touched so
often it is hard to single out
memorable moments.
The performance of the three
networks has been splendid.
Amid all the confusion-even
pandemonium yesterday in
DallaS-they kept a sense of
balance and order.
For the most part, the cover
age had dignity and good taste.
Regular progra m m ing re-
SumeS tomorrow and most Of us
will be glad to start picking up
the threads Of normal life again.
But television's fine perform
ance during these critical days
is something for which they can
be proud and we can be CRATE
full.

By CYNTHIA LOWRY

Associated Press Tv-Raoio Writer
NEW YORK, Nov. 2s.-Dur-
ing the quiet time after yester-
days moving and incredible
events, television networks
sometimes aimed their cameras
on the coffin Of John F. Kennedy
In the Capitol Rotunda and
showed the stream Of people
silently walking past.
By the miracle of television,
all Americans could pay their
respects. And it was as it
should be. Because of tele-
vision the public knew, or felt
it knew, President Kennedy
better than any other chief
executive.
He had been a television
visitor in most of our homes on
an almost daily basis for more
than three years. His death,
therefore, was more than the
tragic loss Of a president: it was
the loss Of someone we felt we
knew very well, almost as a
member Of a family.
We had seen him making
formal speeches. We remember
his grave warning Of the Cuban
crisis. But perhaps most of us
got to know him best during
those informal moments before
the cameras-Seated in a rock
ing chair talking informally
from the White House, being in
terviewed on the lawn of his
Hyannis Port home, squirting
against the sun and his hair
ruffled by a sea wind.
And during these last few
days, televiSion brought us
sights and sounds few of us
will ever forget.

To Quantico
BY CARL SELL
Star staff Writer

Fifteen months ago, Joh n
Uelses opened the door to the
l6-foot pole vault with a leap
Of l6 feet "a inch at the Millrose
Games in New York's Madison
Square Garden.
A month later, Uelses vaulted
is feet "a inch outdoors at the
Santa Barbara. Calf, Easter
Relays for a world record.
Since that time. the German
born ex-Marine from Quantico
has been left in the wake Of a
flock Of vaulters who have
cleared l6 feet. Brian Sternberg
became the 18th man to clear
! the height when he vaulted 1876
for a world outdoor record Sat-
urday at the Penn Relays.
Student at LaSalIe
II feel like a guy who has
just opened the door and then
gets trampled by the crowd
behind him trying to get
through" Uelses said about the
rush Of vaulters now clearing
Is feet.
Uelses, now a student at La
Sale College, will return to
Quantico this Friday and Sat-
urday as one of the featured
performers in the seventh an
nual Marine Corps Schools
Relays.
John has been in and out of
hot water and the hospital
since he surprised the track
world with 16-foot leaps on
successive nights In February
Of 1861.
He has suffered number of
ailments that have prevented
his competing on a regular
basis. Then there was a matter
Of $l85 which he illegally ac-
cepted from sponsors Of a meet
In Hollywood, Fla, in March
of 1862.
Ankle Injured
UelSes was suspended for ac-
cepting the money, but was
reinstated as an amateur by
repaying the money on Febru-
ary 8, 1868. However, his return
to action has been less than
spectacular.
Currently, Uelses is hobbled
by an ankle injury that
wouldn't allow him to get off
the ground" at the Penn Re-
lays. John did clear ISIS at
an indoor meet last week in
London.
Uelses' rapid rise to the l6-
foot height was accomplished
with a fiberglass pole. an item
which touched off a wave Of
protest from the purists who
contend that the only accept
able records should be accom-
plished with the steel pole.
"a catapultist, not a pole
vaulter." Don Bragg, former
world record holder at 15-912,
snorted. John shook off the
criticism and continued to soar
over the 16-foot barrier.

Abuse cIoimed

In view of the overwhelming
wishes to the contrary express
ed by the residents effected, the
change in coming permitting the
construction of high-rise apart.
ments on land previously com.
mitted for residential purposes
in the Wildwood Manor area of
Bethesda, represents disgrace
full disregard of the orderly proc.
esses of our democratic form
of government in Montgomery
County and misuse of public Of
flee for private gain. There can
be no doubt of the desires of the
electorate of the interested vot.
ers in this region. 1t has been
fairly shown at the hearing pre-.
viously held, the many letters
sent in opposing any change in
the existing coming, and the pub.
lie opinion as reported by the
local press.
Should the ruling of this
trump" board be allowed to
stand, the effrontery cannot but
establish anything but a disre.

abuse political authority and
avoid political responsibility. All

ed for rezoning the southeast
ern quadrant of the intersec-
ton of Old Georgetown Road
and Interstate Route 70-S, Coun-
Gil cannot discriminate against
owners of land seeking high
density coming in the other three
quadrants.
High density zoning in this
area violates the North Bethes-
da master plan and endangers
the entire Cabin John water
shed plan. No opposition was
voiced by the rezoning applicant
to the North Bethesda master
plan adopted only last April.
High density coming will require
redesigning and reconstructing
costly facilities already provid-
ed under the North Bethesda
and Cabin John plans.
No overriding need has been
substantiated for this rezoning.
Why, then, is the Republican
majority in the self-styled fair
and economy-minded Council
convinced that rezoning is in the
best interests of the County and
all its citizens? Shouldn't it be
given another hard look before
the final decision?

maintained as a high class sin

action by the Council is in utter
contradiction of this and also
to the good judgment of the

nearly everyone in this immed'
late area, with possible excep.

The proposed rezoning would

Zoning changes are frequent

directly involved in these
matters, usually rationalize that
the world is constantly chang
ing and that these changes are
reasonably and impartially de-
cided for the overall good of
the community or some compel.

Hundreds of residents in the
Wildwood subdivision of North
Bethesda were confident that
existing coming and the ap.
proved master plan for their
area protected their homes
from any undesirable changes.
Their ill-founded complacency
evaporated over night. They
were indescribably shocked to
find that this was not true.

zoned for single-family residen.

Hocus Pocus

BY what hocus-pocus does the
Republican majority of the
Montgomery County Council at
tain clairvoyance to smugly ig-
more the protests of the home
owners of North Bethesda and
defiantly disregard the denial
recommendations of the duly
constituted planning authorities
of the area to approve an appli-
cation for rezoning % acres of
Wildwood Manor single family
residence plots for high-rise
apartments?
In a preliminary vote last
Tuesday, four Republican Coun-
Gil members indicated they fav-
or approval of the rezoning
while Republican Thomas M.
Wilson Joined the two Demo
Gratis in the Council in opposi-
ton. Final formal approval by
the County Council would con-
stitute a precedent-making deci-
sion of far reaching conse.
quence.
Planners unanimously, and
with probably the strongest rec.
ommendation ever, urged that
the request be denied, emphat.
ically pointing out that high
rise coming was the wrong use
for this location. A protest pc
tition, signed by more than a
thousand residents of the i'm
mediate area, was filed with the
County Council during hearings
on the application.

B. A. Ziskind

AS a homeowner in the Be-
thesda area, wish to express
to you my family's indignation
at the way the four Republican
members of the Montgomery
County Council John Floyd,
John Henry Hiser, Kathryn
Diggs, and Mary Hepburn vot-
ed in favor of Mr.. Alvin Aubi-
noes rezoning application for
building a high-rise apartment
at the intersection of Old
Georgetown Road and Inter-
state 70-S. We are appalled, that
these Council members have
completely disregarded the year.
old master plan of the Mont
gomery County Planning Com
mission. Also, there has been an
absolute disregard for the pub
lie interest as evidenced by more
than a thousand signatures on
petitions opposing the rezoning;
attendance of hundreds of resi-
dents at the first hearing in the
matter; and a multitude of let
tiers opposing the rezoning.
The aforementioned men,
bers of the Council have render
ed a dis-service to those of US
who elected them by asking the
county attorney to bring forth
a favorable decision for the re-
coming at the next meeting of
the Council on December 18th.
These Council members owe it
to the community in which they
live, they owe it to their fellow
citizens, and they owe it to
themselves to vote against the
proposed rezoning and, thus, re-
gain the trust and confidence of
their constituents.
