surprise this week as 137
schools admitted a record
breaking 95,311 pupils.
But school authorities were
surprised by what they termed
"the most orderly opening in
our memory"
This was the reaction today
Of the county's Board Of Edu-
cation staff and a number OF
principals, who spent the past
few days braced for the con-
fusion that never developed.
AS had been anticipated
many months ago, with the ad-
dition of only % teachers for
a student population increase
estimated at 5000 overcrowding

According to official Stats
tics, the Jump in enrollments
thus far has amounted to S.
200 over last year, but expert
ence in other years has shown
that the opening-day total in
variably is raised in subsequent
months by about 1850 late ar
rivals.

Bill to Preserve
Capitol Theoter
Viewed as IIIeouI

The city's top legal officer
said today that a House
approved bill that seeks to
block the District from issuing
any permit for conversion Of
the Capitol Theater would be
unconstitutional"
Chester Gray, corporation
counsel, said in a memorandum
to the Commissioners that the
District has no right to deny
a permit for turning the Capitol
Theater in the National Press
Building into office space.
This ruling kills a laSt-ditch
effort to save the theater as a
setting for cultural perform
anceS here.
In any case, 1t was considered
unlikely that the Senate would
approve the House measure to
prevent issuance Of alteration
permits for both the Capitol
and Keith's Theaters.
Mr.. Gray said the bill would
be unconstitutional because it
would result in a deprivation of
the free use Of property without
due process Of law"
The National Press Corp.
has already paid the Dis
trict a $500 fee for a permit
to convert the Capitol Theater
space into offices. The permit
is expected to be granted soon.

Nearly Perfect,

The communications Satel-

orbit that, for perfection, is
probably unparalleled in the
annals of the Space Age.
Syncom, launched from Cape

posed to go into a circular orbit
at such an altitude that its
period of rotation around the
earth would coincide with the
length Of a day. Now the Space
Agency has completed studies
that show:
The orbit-more than $4,000
miles above the surface-varies
from the absolutely circular by
no more than Az miles.
The period - % hours. Sc

drifting eastward so SLOWLY
that it would take nearly /
month for it to move a single
degree. This can be corrected
periodically, and Syncom car
be expected to remain on sta,
ton in working order for NOR,
than two years.
Because the satellite wa,
launched on an angle to thu

Drug Firms Sue to Bar
FDA advertising Order

Drug manufacturers took the
Food and Drug Administra-
tons new drug advertising
regulations to court today to
get them annulled.
The manufacturers charged
that FDA's new regulations go
beyond the authority given
FDA by Congress in the 1862
amendments to the Food, Drug
and Cosmetic Act.
The court action ends a long
legal honeymoon. In the Is
years of the Food Drug and
Cosmetic Act, the prescription
drug industry has never before
begun court action to invali-
date an FDA regulation.

The action was announced by

prescription drug manufac-
turerS had joined them in filing

Claims Plan
For Fairfax
Insurance Set

The Insurance Buyers Coun-
Gil of Baltimore will admins
ter claims for a new county
self-insurance plan under q
contract approved yesterday by
the Fairfax Board of Super
ViSors.
The Baltimore company also
will continue to act as insur.
ance adviser to the county.
The firm will subcontract
claims service and safety ad-
vice on workman's compensa-
ton, general liability and auto
liability to another company
Loss Control Management. The
county will pay about $4,000
annually for this service.
County officials say the self
insurance program will save
money on premiums. Super
visor Robert c. Gotten said the
savings may amount to "sev-
eral thousands of dollars over
a period Of years."
At their first meeting since
the August recess yesterday
the supervisors also set up an
$4,000 loss fund for the self
insurance program.
The claims contract they ap.
proved was altered from ar
earlier draft to avoid possible
conflict of interest charges.
Supervisor Adelard L. Brault
had said early in August that
there might be a conflict OF

surance programs. The Park
Authority may subscribe for all
three coverage areas. The

later this month if it will pro-
vide its own workman's COM
