County Players
Plan New Trial
For Mary Dugan

Two consecutive weekend pre-
sensations of 1.-THE Trial of
Mary Dugan," featuring the
Montgomery Players, will open
at the Inverness Playhouse on
Seven Locks Road on Thursday,
March %, at $3.50 pm.
Additional performances will
be presented on Friday and
Saturday nights and on the
same three nights the following
weekend, all starting at the
same time. The public offering
will be preceded by an invita-
tional dress rehearsal next
Wednesday at 8 pm.
The Players have assembled
a large cast of seasoned per-
formers for the production, with
Ted Sweet and Bob Iron in
principal roles and veteran
Frances Spruce serving as direc-
tor. The play is a repetition of
an offering made by the Players
during their early years, when
Judge E. Barrett Prettyman
directed a 1881 version of 1.-THE
Trial"

ridge Avenue traffic.
Time was when north Am
herst did not exist. Traffic
simply swung from Blueridge
onto Amherst lat a right angle)
to the Post Office or on to Uni
versity Boulevard. Then the
apartments came, and with
them north Amherst and traf-
fic. There were no stop signs.
Came an cutlery, or a number
of bound-to-happen accidents,
and the sign was put up-not
on the new residential feeder
street but on what many use as
the Wheaton main intersection
bypass.
If this seems confusing, con-
fusion is compounded by the
fact that the street sign at Blue
ridge and Amherst Avenues is
reversed, showing Amherst as
Blueridge and Blueridge as Am
herst. Perhaps the stop sign
was supposed to go on Amherst,
but the sign installers got cross
ed up by the turned around
street name sign!

AccreditatiOn Official
Talks to Hospital Group

Members of the staff and
board of directors of the Mont
gomery General Hospital met
for a buffet luncheon with DR..
Arno Fromm of the Joint Com
mission on Accreditation of
Hospitals in the conference
room of the hospital at Olney.
DR.. Fromm spent all of one
day surveying the hospital. His
report goes to the Joint Com
mission which determines &C.
creditation status of hospitals.
DR.. Fromm told the group
that generalization is not a polio
ing or a punitive measure. He
stated that it is an educational
matter. He said many hospital
insurance agencies such as Blue
Shield and Blue Cross insist
upon disqualification in accredit-
ed hospitals. He also noted that
frequently industry will not To-
cate in an area where accredit-
ed hospitals are not available.
In speaking of the hospital
industry = the fifth largest in
this country-Dr. Fromm noted
that in assets and interest, hos
pitfalls have more holdings than
the six largest railroads; the
hospital industry have a Sc bill
lion payroll; and hospital pa
tent population equals the
populations of Los Angeles,

Swimming Pool, Golf Course Among
Facilities Proposed for Rockville

school hours because they
usually are utilized for varsity
activities, Ofsthun pointed out
in support of his plan for a new
city center. At the same time,
he said, it would be available
for a wide variety of other
activities for both children and
adults.
Along with an indoor swim
ming pool in the event it is not
built in conjunction with the
separately proposed city pool,
Ofsthun suggested that the new
recreation center include a gym.
nasium; a variety of rooms for
exercises, games, music, arts
and crafts; handball and squash
courts, a kitchen, snack bar,
rest rooms, showers, and other
facilities.

family" In this respect, he said,
the golf course would become
"a show window" for the city.
On the basis of operational
expenses compared to revenue
received from golfers, Ofsthun
said, "this facility might con-
ceivably be constructed and
operated at no cost to the tax
payer"
While submitting three alter
native plans for establishment
of a city course, Ofsthun said
he was partial to city's acquisi-
ton of additional high land
adjacent to the Watts Branch
Stream Valley, assuming that a
portion of the property will be
dedicated to the city by sub
dividers as a flood plain. This
would provide adequate corridor
space for the golf course ada
cent to park and playground
areas which would comprise
an adequate recreation. focal
point" for the city, he pbinted
out.
The other alternatives were
purchase by the city of an. exist
ing 18-hOle golf course or pur-
chase of from 100 to $50 acres
of land outside the maximum
expansion limits.
Ofsthun cited the Rockville
Civic Center tract as most
desirable" for a proposed rec
reation building, but suggested
as alternatives a site currently
being acquired for a playfield
or the downtown area, In con-
junction with the proposed
Urban Renewal program.

DUPONT Aide
To Talk to
ROtarians

DR.. George r. Seidel, man.
ager of the education section of
the E. l. du Pont de Nemours
Co. public relations department,
will be the guest speaker at the
April 30 meeting of the Whea-
ton Rotary Club. The meeting
will be held at the Anchor Inn
at 1915.
Freedom and You" will be
the subject of DR.. SeidePs adj
dress before the Rotarians. Cit
ing freedom to use individual
intelligence as the free worlds
most powerful weapon, DR..
Seidel declares that Americas
industrial strength has develop
ed because free men in a free
economy were allowed to invest
their time, talents, and money
as they saw fit"
A research chemist for many
years, he will recount some
first-hand experience of du Pont
technology, Illustrating his
thesis that only the kind of
freedom we enjoy in America
can provide the atmosphere for
the most fruitful development of
scientific knowledge.
For several years, DR.. Seidel
has been active in the education
al program of the Delaware
Section of the American Chemi-
cal Society, and in this connec-
ton addresses numerous teach
er and college groups in Della
ware and other states. Follow
ing his talk before the Wheaton
Rotary Club, he will speak at
the University of Maryland.
DR.. Seidel obtained his Ph.D.
in physical chemistry at Johns
Hopkins University in 1881. He
taught college chemistry and
mathematics for several years,
and has been with the du Pont
company since 1886.

A municipal swimming pool
and golf course are among
added features of Rockville's
highly rated recreation program
in a proposal currently under
study by the City Council.
The facilities would be pro-
vided in a six-year development
program proposed by Neil A.
Ofsthun, director of recreation,
in a detailed report which also
called for construction of a gen.
eral recreation building to be
utilized by both children and
adults for a variety of activities.
A second gymnasium-type struc-
ture was suggested by 1870,
when the city's population is
expected to exceed 10000.
While the swimming pool and
recreation center were listed in
separate phases of the three
section report, they were also
cited as a potential combination
feature dependent on the loca-
ton of the recreation building.
With respect to the pool -
which could be indoor, outdoor
or a combination of the two
under sliding roof - Ofsthun
noted that about 10 per cent of
the city's residents do not have
swimming facilities available.
Of the approximate $4,000 living
within the city limits, he said,
current records show only about
$500 belong to private pools.
Construction costs would
range from about $165,000 to
$250,000, according to the type
of pool built, Ofsthun estimated.
On the basis of tentative opera
tional costs and revenues, he
said, the facility would bring in
profit of about $4,000 a year
to be applied to the debt.
The recreation official sug-
gested that a municipal golf
course be included in the city's
master plan as an attraction for
present Rockville residents "or
to the individual who might be
considering the city as a nice
place to settle and raise his

WHEATON - Some motor
lists in Wheaton are complain
ing about the stop sign which
was placed on the east end of
Blueridge Avenue where it
dead-ends into Amherst Avenue.
New apartments and an ex-

Plans Are Pushed
Idea of New University Here
Beginning to Get Off Ground

has expressed an interest in
establishing its national head
quarters Z, the campus of the
proposed university in the event
it is established on an advanced
educational basis.
Meanwhile, supporters of the
university are anxiously await
ing a report from the Treasury
Department, which has the cor
porate plan under study to de-
termine the type of taxation to
which the university would be
subjected. Obviously, the tax
status will have a major effect
on the overall financial picture
once the educational program
gets under way.

DR.. Fromm expressed his
opinion that a good hospital is
more than "brick and MORTAR.
He said it takes dedication of
professional staff, administra-
tive staff, and service personnel,
as well as the board of direc-
tors to keep a hospital the place
of service it should be.

connection with the routine re.
evaluation of the hospitals
