Nunivak Reindeer Prove Elusive In Fog

State Dept. of Agriculture Vet erlnarian Fred Honsinger spent most of September on Nunivak Is- land with the reindeer slaughter operations there. About 1900 ani- mals were slaughtered, which is quite an increase over last year The operation encountered much difficulty in rounding up the rein deer because of adverse weather conditions. Some large herds were lost in the fog when nearly up to the corral.
 The Division of Agriculture sent a sample of reindeer, pepperoni- type sausage manufactured in Fairbanks) to the National Meet ing of the State Departments of Agriculture. With the sample of sausage was a small mimeograph sheet explaining the reindeer in- dustry in Alaska. They have re- ceived a flood of letters express ing appreciation and interest in the reindeer enterprise from those attending.

Arlington Officials Demand
Breakdown on HoodIumism

last spring, the board has been
increasingly concerned and even
bitter about juvenile delin-
quency in the county.
Critical of Court
Although statistics indicate
its incidence has been below the
national average, members feel
there still is too much for a
h-income community which
boasts of having one of the best
school systems in the country.
The board members have been
critical of the Juvenile Court,
contending that it deals far too
lightly with repeated offenders
whom they consider responsible
for most Of the trouble.
Juvenile authorities suggest
that the teen-agers responsible
for the violence and crime by
and large are not from finan-
cially underprivileged homes,
but from families whose parents
are indifferent or overly indulg-
ent.
County Manager Bert w.
Johnson is preparing recon-
mendations for an overall
campaign against delinquency.
In private conversations with
him after the meeting yester-
day, board members emphasized
that in the meantime they will
support the most vigorous police
action possible and do anything
they can to abet prosecutions

Montgomery County's be-
leaguered Democrats have no
place to so but up. and the
climb is slated to begin this
week.
The party's divided Central
Committee. which has been
courted by virtually nobody
since the Republican victory
last fall, is expected to get indi-
cations Of support at a meeting
of precinct officials in Rock
vile next Saturday.
The meeting will climax
three weeks of renewed activity
for the party's regular organi-
zation. controlled since May by
the liberal wing.
The activity has been trig-
gered not so much by activities
Of the Republican administra-
ton as by the formation of a
conservative Democratic organi-
cation headed by States Attor-
ney Leonard T. Hardy. This
group has vowed to fight the
liberals, who claim four of the
seven Central Committee mem
bers, and to work for grass roots
control in precinct elections
next fall.
The conservatives hope to at
tract middle-o -the-roaders. but
are steering clear of liberals
whom they blame for the par
tvs defeat.
Last week, however, the first
signs of rebuilding came when
a group of liberals in the
Wheaton area, who also have
been unhappy with party lead
ership, told Central Committee
Chairman Ann Brown they
would support the party organ
ization.

The Prince Georges County
