Jul'lior Highlights by Laura Rnon

Action and activity are the cur­rPnt words at Greenbelt Junior High School.

The student council recently sponsored a clash day. Students were encouraged to wear clashing colom, designs, and hair styles. The outcome was a day of weird con­coctions, and loads of fun.

Anxiety can be sensed as the basketball team moves towards its seventh victory. With but one IOSB, our team will take first place in the interscholastic basketbaU pro­gram. In addition, the Greenbelt J.H.S. chess team swept even event at the match in Beltsville on Jan. 31.

To add to .the excitement and school spirit of this sca.sOn, the Future Homemakers of A~erica are selling Greenbelt buttons. These one and one half inch, green and white buttons are let· tered in gold and add much to the school day.

The Bear News, Greenbelt Jun­ior High's school newspaper, and its staff were among nineteen schools to attend the convention held in Baltimore. Members were given an opport~nity 'to participate in various forms of newspaper writing. The entire team won a third place rating.

Cupid's Carousel, the annua:l Valentine Day dance, will be held Friday, Feb. 17. As the largest dance of the year, . students are asked to dress In semiformal wear. To highlight the evening, a king and queen, selected by the stu­dent 'body, will be crowned.

Recently niruth grade civics tea· chers have been taking a special courae 1n laWmaking sponsored jointly by the Justice Department and the Md. Board of Education. They, and the live other county schools participating, will present this unit. Greenbelt will commence this unit on March 6. The course will consist of lectures, films with talks given by actual criminals, and field trips, to name but a few of the many activities.

GHI Accepts Low Bid of $96,97 4 For Building Freestanding Homes

by AI Skolnik With one dissent, the Greenbelt Homes, Inc. board of direc­

tors on Thursday, February 9, moved to accept the low bid of Shamrock Builders, Inc. of Washington, D. C. for construction of the four free-standing homes on Northway, Woodland Way, and Hillside. Six bids were submitted. ranging from the accepted bid of $96,974 to $164.000. Construction is expected to begin as soon as the weather permits. The four houses will be built concurrent-ly with construction time about 4 m::.::o;::n;::th:;s:;,:. _________ _

The motion, made by director Nat Shinderman, touched off a full­scale 2~2-hour review of the cor­poration's larger homes program as board members exchanged vie"~:'! with critics who expressed ooncern over the cost and design of the homes, the effects on cor­porate assets, and the legality and purpose of the program.

Tbe hu·ger homes program, which also contemplates construc­tion of 25 townhouses on a 5-acre tract opposite the North End School, was approved by the mern· bership in a special referendum on August 4-5, 1965. The· program is an effort by the corporation to provide larger homes for member families whose remaining in Green­belt is contingent on their finding such homes at a price they can afford.

In approving the larger homes program, the membership had stip­ulated that construction be financ­ed from corporate funds at no cost or liability 'to the membership, and that homes be. sold under Mutual Ownership Contra.cts so that pur· chasers will be in the same position as present GHI members.

Financial Arra.ngl'rncnts Under the current plan adopted

by the corporation, the sales price of each free-standing house will b~ approximately $26,000 to $27,000.

V Miscellaneous

GHI will finance the 30-ye:u mort­gages at 6 percent. Down pay­ments of at least 10 percent arc required.

The price set by the corporation is recognized to be below the mar· ket value, since the homes are be­Ing $Old at cost. However ,to pre­vent the first purchasers and sub­sequent purchasers from ·profiteer­ing, the corporation laid down the following formula for determining future resale price.

\Vhen the initial purchaser moves in, his house will be appraised by a professional to detetinine fair market value. This appraisal is expected to be above the price paid, since, for one thing, the price of the land to the purchaser will be the corporation's original cost and not the higher fair market value. The ratio of the purchaser's price of the house to the appraised value will then determine what propor­tion of any future 1\ppreciation .In the value of the property will ac­crue to the member when he de­cides to sell.

For example, a member pur­chases one of the four homes from GHI for, say, $27,000. The apprais­ed value of this house at time of purchase is determined to be $30,000. This means that the mem­ber has a 90 percent equity in the property, the corporation has the other 10 percent. If the member decides to sell 10 years latPr and the house is appraised then at $35,000, the member will be able to receive only 90 percent of the $5,000 difference in the two ap­praised values or $4,500. Adding $4,500 to the original price of $27,-000 WHI detPrrnine the sa)('s price of tile home <$31.5001. The same formula will then be applied to fu­ture sales, so that all re-sales will be in a. controllel'l market.

Critiei!lllt

Brrnard Bordrnet criticized thrse arrangPm<'nl~ on the grounds that the corporation's a.ssPts wer" bPing impairPd sine<' the land was bring included in the purd1asP price net at full value but at cost. In reply, Shindprrnan observed ( ll the cor­poration wa.' retaining ownership of the land; (2) because of the controll"d sales formula. a depart­ing homeowner would not be able to include in his selling price the difference betwPen what he paid for the land and its true value. This difference would stay with the corporation; and <3l ·the general membership had a gain since th<' property would ylrld inceme which would be utK'd to rn~!'t the taxes and mortgage ~arrying charges now bring paid by GHI on thP lots.

Hearing Set for March 15 On Rezoning of Parcel 15

High-density apartment and commercial rezoning petitions on the controvPrsia.l parcel 15 will be heard before the District Council CPrince Georges County Commis­sioners) on March 15. Parcel 15 is the 32-acrc tract near the Capi­tal Beltway which had been desig­nated for a senior high school site on the Greenbelt and Area 13 Col­kge Park-Greenbelt Master Plans, but which the school boa.rd turned down in favor of a 3-sehool com­plex on a land-locked tract near the Baltimore-Washington Park­way.

The owners of parcel 15 <Charles . Bresler, Theodore Lerner, and as­

sociates) arc petitioning for 27.5 acres of R-18 apartments <18-20 units an acre) and 5.0 acres of neighborhood commercial <C.1). The tract is presently zoned at a low-density - R-55 (single family) and R.P.C. (rural planned com­munity).

Over objections from the city and cltizens' groups, the Prince Georges Couruty Planning Board CMNCPPCl on September 14, 1966 approved the deveioper's request. Unknown to the city, the developer­had amended his original applica­tion to R-18 zoning, a higher den­sity than the original petition of R-30 (10-12 apartment units per acrcl, before the hearing. During the hearing, Bresler argued that the adjacent land <Charlestowne Village) was also R-18 and includ· ed an eight-story apartment.

At the September H meeting, the city requested that action on the petitions be deferred until the J\fNCPPC adopts a Revised Area 13 Master Plan for the College Park­Greenbelt area which is acceptable to the county commissioners. This plan had bPrn returned by the Dis­trkt Council in July 1965, with in­structions to lower the densities. AftPr the County Planning Board turned down ti1e requests for de­ferral, City Manager, James K. GiPsc offered the council's recorn­nwndations for pared 15:

1 1l that single-family zoning CR-55 and R-80) be usrd for thP land north of Prince James Way.

<21 that R-30 zoning be granted to the south of Prince James Way.

Bresler Relieved of Liaison Duties i1 PG, Montgomery .

Governor Spiro T. Agnew announced on Tuesday, F~bruary 1~, his decision to reli~ve Charles S. Bresler of some of hJS responsl.· bilities in connection with his appointment as National Relations Ofticer. In addition, the Governor stated that Bresler would not serve as liaison between the State Administration and the res•

idents of Prince Georges and Montgomery Counties. The announcement was made at a meeting the Governor had

with a Prince Georges county delegation from the General Assem• bly_ Both the Governor and the delegation had been swamped with letters and telegrams from Greenbelters and othe"' protest• ing the appointment. The Governor noted that the. reactions of the citizens of Greenbelt "frankly, were quite surprising in their

intensity."

Bresler will continue to perform liaison for the state with the fed­eral government in a task for which, the Governor said, "he is admirably suited." The Governor stressed, however, that while Ercs­!Pr will ha\·e overall responsibility for obtaining federal aid benefits for Maryland, "grants specifically involving Prince Georges County wiU not come under his supervi­sion."

}'entress Appointed Taking over the responsibilities

no longer held by Bresler will be David Fentress, a Montgomery County resident, who was appoint­ed Assistant National Relations Of­ficer. The Govemor made it clear to the delegation that Fentress would be reporting directly to him with respect to liaison and grants concerning Prince Georges County.

Attending the meeting with the Governor were State Senators Me­yer Ernanue~ Jr., Edward Conroy. and Stenny Hoyer and House Dele~ gates Paulene Menes, Arthur Dor· man, Andrew Mothershead and Bernard Donovan. Also In · atten­dance was Greenbelt Mayor pro tern Francis W. White.

Following the meeting, Mrs. Menes said that the delegation was very pleased at the way the Gover­nor received the representaitlves of the delegation on behalf of the people of Greenbelt. She stated that the Governor was most willing to make himself available and It ap­peared that this ~as the beginning of a relationship that would bene11t everyone.

Similar sentiments were expres­sed by White in a televised inter• Yiew. He said he felt that the Gov. ernor's decision was a workable oolution since the "Prince Georges Federal program will be handled

We are very peased with the efforts of the Prince Georges County State senators and delegates on Green· belt's lsehalf and · for the sup­port they have given vs. At the same time, we are disappointed that Mr. Bresler remains as Na· tiona! Relations omcer for the rest of the citizens of Maryland. Next Monday night the Council will be glad to bear the citizens of Greenbelt on this matter." Councilmen Dick Pllskl a.nd Francis White concurred with these views as did Councilman William Hoff who added, "We'll have· to walt and see how Mr. Bresler handles his assigned po­sition as National Relations Of· fleer . for the rest of the state."

At the Monday night council meeting preceding thr l;ovPrnor's official announcement, fragmentary reports had been recPived tltat the Governor's reaction to Greenbelt protests would be negative. On this basis, the council, with coun• cilman David Champion dissenting, empowered the mayor to seek a hearing before State legislative committees for the purpose of op• posing the appointment of Bresler. The council also voted to organize a citizen caravan to accompany the council to Annapolis. The mo- · tions were contingent upon an ad· ""rse decision by the Governor.

"The reactions of the citizens of Greenbelt to my appointment of Mr. Charles S. Bresler as National Relations Officer on my staff have been .a mattPr of deep concern to me and, frankly, were quite surprising in th•·n· intensity.

"I have examined these complaints, which arise from a rontrovPrsy that has been going on for quite some time, and I have held two Meet· ings with Prince Georges County legislators on this subject.

"It is not my intention to attempt to decide the merits of a leral dis· put~ b<>twrPn Mr. Bresler and· the City of Gre~nbelt. This is a matter for court determination.

"After much thought, I have decided upon ti1e following course of

a•'tion: "Mr. Bresler will continue in the major duties 118!ligned to him,

prrforminl( iillison for the Stall' with the ~'edcral government and Its myrhu ag<'l'rirs in Washington. This is a task to which he is admirably suit!'d and I havp thr Culll\.'11. ronfldrnrl' in his ability to render valuable servil'P to the ·stat•· in this capacity

To the Editor Favors Library Board Tn lht• Editor:

As a profes:-;.ional libr~rian. I am \"t'ry mueh {'OJ1C('fJ1Pd about a pro· posal before the :\faryland Lt>gisla­turp which would transfer author­ity over the Library from tht• County Library Board to the Coun­ty Commissioners. The proposal was introduced by the Prince Geor­gr's County DeJegation in the Leg­is:a:ure at the request of the Prince George's County Commis­sioners.

In the first place. I cannot really see the need for this change. for the Library is being run with great efficiency, providing the best library ocrvice to county residents at minimal cost . This is certainly true in the Hyattsville area and it will soon be true elS<'where "" newer libraries are opened through­out the county.

It may we II be the proposed change will have no deleterious l'f­fect on the operation of the county library system but questions arise J,t·:~·r:hrless. Here arc a ftw:

1 ~o"· will the change to direct '· ''' trol by the County Commission­',., affect our book selection poli­cies covering sometimes controver­sial materials in our collection'? Will the library be subject to di­T€'Ctivcs from the CommissionPrs which tell us to remo\·e this or that book from our shelves~ This h~s J;appened in other communities. <·s­prcially where no library- truste{·s ac-t as a buffer between the county c.:t:r·t-r.<, and the library adminis­tration. when pressure is brcught to bear by CPrtain community groups. AdmittedlY the Librarv TrustePs are no gu·a~antee that thi:, could not happen. but a Board not subject to the winds of political change usually is the most effectin means to counter such an attack on the basic function of the li­brary. i.e.. to provide b,.,oks and other materials reflecting- opposing shades of opinion.

How will the propos(·d transf<'r affect tht• staff in terms of tenure. retirement, annual leave. paid holi­da~·~. mPrit incrf'aS4·s in ~alary. l'k~ l~·a\·1·. h~ alth insuram·p program.'-. L1:·in;:: a"d firi11g'? \\ .. ith n·gard trJ th" lattPr, how will profr·ssional :1 ~1d dPrical staff hf' obtai rwd -.from our 0\'.:n officf' t WP han• a ;-;11~

pPrlaUve PPrsonnr•l Offw,.r 1 or throug-h thP P<·rsonnPI Otlic•·r in l.'ppf'r Marlboro? Qualifi<·d li­brarians an· hard to fmtl 1 rPcl'nt t'stimatP.s indiratPd that thPrP is a shortag" of 100.000 librarians in this <'ountry. l

Tlw first quPstion IS onf' of y(•ry r··~ll ('Ollf'<'fn to librarians IL~ it strikes at the heart of everything we ar~ trying to do. I fo>rvPntly hop<' that In the name of effit'ieney, this changeo\•er would not result in destructinn of top quality library service for all residents of the county. Perhaps some safeguards can be written into the legislation that will insure that this d()(>S not llapp<·n a non-partisan dli7.<'n's group. for Instance, appolntPd by

An Exceptional Neighbor To tlw t:ditor:

Rt~.:-<idt'nts rlsrwhrrP in Gref'nbelt. I'm ~urf'. havp g-ood llt"'i~hbnr~.

Howt~\·rr. hrrr on Plateau PlacP. 1~ ctllll't, wr ha\'P an f'XCt:>ptional n<'ighbor. Taylor Slye. and I would like others to know about him as a. mrans of expressing our appre~ dation. Taylor owns both a sturdy power mow~r and a jeep with a snow plow attachmPnt. which ht> uses frequently and extensively for the benl'fit of us all. His mowing indudes not only his own yard. but outside, in front of our homes clear to thP street; also, the thruways betwel'n courts. The big job last summer was the clearing of a deep ravine behind us. of junked major appliances accumulated through the yrars. ' Xow our neighbor has been a­gain on the job with his snow plow, last night until after 10 p.m .. clearing not only. the strePt but ewry parking space. that was un­occupied at .the time. This letter is about one year late, . as he did the same thing last y.:ar when it snowed.

I ft•el sure this generosity of spirit comes naturally to this neighbor; a quality absent' in most of us.

Speaking Sternly A Tale ol Many Lands

A" everyone knows, folk singing is "in." Guitar-swinging folksing­ers provide a popular form of en­t~rtainment, and one of their fa· \·orite performanc~s is a string of tunt's from distant countries. Au­diences like it because it sounds t>xotic. and singers like it even morf' because no one can spot any mistak~·:::. they mfike.

Dut if fo!!{singing is "in." this dot>:; not hold tnw for its fraternal a:·t. folkston· telling. Gone are thP dnys wliPn storytf'ller~ would Pntrrtain ttwir audirnc(' in thr pt:b · lie marketplace in exehange fot· a ft•w tosst•d co)ns. (And folksingers no longer givf' anything 1!1 rx~

chan;;t> for tos.wd coins, Pither: you ha\'c to rPsrn·r your ticht'ts two \\'(•Pks in adnu1ct>. This, hnw­P\"Pr. is a diffrr('nt story.) \Ve wonder why - . is it. maybe, be­cause e\'eryone is familiar with the old folk tales, while no new ones are created •

If this indeed is the case, story­tellers could well take their cue from folksingers and render their stories in versions told in far-away climes. Wouldn't even you pause in the public marketplace to listen, say, to the story of Red Riding Hood and the Vietcong Tax Coll~ctor?

Take the classic story of Goldi­locks and the three bears. In Israel. for instance, it might start lilw this:

Once upon a time there was a little girl named Golda Lox. who liked to play at the edge of the

,John F. Kennedy Memorial Forest, planted in thP wilderness of Judea with funds donatPd by the U. S. Jewry. One day Golda wnndert>d ir1to till' forest, ancl before long lost hrr way. "Oh dear~·· she cried. "What am I going to do now? I hope that I haven't stray<'d across the Egyptian border!"

Just to get another slant on the story, let us cross that border and pirlr up thl• taiP thPrt>:

After wandf'ring for a long time, Abdu-Golrliloei<s finally reached a house hidden among the palms. She entPred and in,ide, on the ta­ble. \\'c•rt' three sk~wers of shish­lmbob.

She trit•d a pi<'re. from the largest skewl'r. "Too rare." she said. She took one off the skewer next to it, but it was too well-done. Finally she tried the meat on the smallest skewer and it was medium rare just as she liked, so she gobbled it all up.

Having eaten, she laked for a place to sit down. She found a big chair. but the label on it said "Made in U.S.A." "I cannot vio­late my neutr·ality in world affairs," said Abdu-Goldilocks and looked for somt'!hing elst>, but tlw next ehair was labrlP<I "Made in U.S.S. R" and wax t•qually unncrPptable. !4lw ~warclwd and finally discovPr­t•d 11 small rhair lnbPled "Made in ~~gypt." "This is what I was Jool<­ing for," slw ~aid, hut unfortunate~ l.v. a~.; ~0011 as slw sat on it thf' chair fpJI apart. b<'rnuse the local' industry still has a thing or two to }P!ll'Tl.

"X ot bad. but still kind of plain," "he commented and went right by to the third one, which was a bit small, but of solid gold, with ruby and emerald studding.

"Now that is what I call a bed." she said. as she lay down in it and fell asleep.

At this point of the story, of course. the bears return home. Let's sec how they handle it, say, in Germany:

"Donnerwetter," shouted Papa Bear. "Someone has bin drinkink birr von mein stein!"

"Ach, du Iieber," answered Ma­ma Bear. "und someone has bin drinkink bier von mein stein, too!''

"Und look hicr," said Baby Bear, "mein stein is all empty!"

"Must have been some verdammt foreigner," growled Papa Bear. "Your stPin was the only one with milk in it."

Of course, the story develops quite differently on the far side of the iron curtain;

Papa Bear laked at his chair and said: "Natasha, I think the secret police have been here agaln."

"I told them a thousand times to be careful with the. furniture," an­swered Mama Bear.

"But they had to break my little chair, the beasts," sobbed Baby Bear.

"Hush baby, big brother is listen­ing to what you say," said Papa Bear very quickly, "or do you want my job to be transferred to Novo­sibirsl< ?"

F'or the bedroom scene of course, nothing equals a French version:

"Sacre bleu, some strange woman has bPPn slef'ping in your bed!" screamed Maman Bear to her mate.

"Non." yelled Papa Bear, "some strange man has been in your bed!"

"~lo:t Dit>u. how I hate to enter this argumt>nt," said Baby Bear, "but whoever it was. is still very much asle<'P in m~· bed."

And for special flavor, there's the ending of the story as it is told in that great neighbor of the U.S., the sovereign stale of Alabama;

Goldilocks ·opened her eyes and saw the three bears.

"Cain'! you read the sign, honey­chile?" said Papa BPar rather an· grily. "It says plainly, 'This Bed Reserved for BPars Only.' "

"Now you sashay quickly out of heah, before we call Sheriff Clark," chimNI In Mama Bear. Goldilocks jumped off as fast as she could and fled bark to the forest.

"That's th<' trouble with people," said Papa B<•ar aftt>r she disap­peared. "Give them n few rights and tht>y think that they are bears."

GP.EF;NnELT NEWS REVIEW

City Endorses Suggested Legislation To Meet MNCPPC On Perimeter load

. hy Mary Smith, Elaine Skolnik ~1ty Council last Monday night spent some time discussing

pendmg state legislation now in the hopper at Annapolis, and endorsed t~e recommendations of two municipal associations.

Approved m toto were the reso­lutions passed recently by the P.G. County Municipal Association (of which Mayor Smith is chairman), dealing with recommendations for future legislation. Also approved was the statement of the Maryland Municipal League at its recPnt Congress of Cities meeting. This statement of the League is con­cerned with property taxes muni­cipal taxes and a rcdist;·ibution formula, and is a general fiscal re­fonn policy. City Manager James Giese noted that under .the propos­ed Hughes-Agnew tax plan t11e city of Greenbelt would receive from the state coffers about $37,000 for its police department.

Perimet.>r R<la.d Giese announced that the council

will meet with the Maryland Na­tional Capital Park and Planning Commission on Feb. 23. Discussion will center on the location of the perimeter road, dedication and res­ervation of rights-of-way, and the School Board plats for the 3-school complex 0,11 Parcel 2

Giese stated "At the moment, it appears . that everyone endorses in principle the need for a perimeter road, but there remains the ques­tion of route." A meeting with the

·School Board on this matter is cont<·mplated in the ncar future.

A study is now being made by city engineers, Grccnehornc and

O'Mara. as to where it would be most feasible to build the road. City Planner Malcolm Dill will be consulted and the council will re­view the matter "';th the City's Advisory Panning Board on Feb. 22.

Harold Siegel, president of . the Citizens for a Planned Greenbelt, stressed that in addition to pin­pain tiilg _ the p~rimeter road through the school site, clarifica­tion should be obtained as to the location of the rest of the route. and steps taken to acquire the land.

Parcel 7

Thl' matter of construction equip­ment being parked on the stripped parcel 7 adjacent to Boxwood Vil­lage, and across from Greenbelt Lake, is now in the hands of the zoning enforcement officer of the Maryland National Capital Park and Planning Commission. Mr. Baker o! the Prince Georges Coun­ty Inspection Department informed the city that he referred the city's letter, requesting him to look into possible zoning violaions, to the MNCPPC.

llse of l'ouU1 Cent<>r A request was made by the Po­

tomac Archers for the usc of the Youth Center on five successive Sunday afternoons, for the purpose of holding an archery competition. Permission was initially granted.

but lat .. r had to be denied, because the Director of Recreation was un­aware that use of the center is limited to Greenbelt organizations. However, since the competition had already been advertised, Giese asked ·council to waive the rules to pennit the first meeting only to be held, next Sunday, a.t a rental fee of $17.50. This would give the group time to find other accomo­datlons for the remainder of the contest.

Council agreed to this one-time use of the center, provided that the City Solicitor was contacted to be sure that provisions were made for liability insurance and personal property damage, perhaps by requiring a dPposit of escrow fui1ds. ··

Reverend Wyatt Resolution A resolution was passed com­

mending the Reverend Kenneth B. Wyatt for his spiritual and civic contributions to the commul'tity, and making him a ·lifetime honor­ary citizen of the city. He has been called to a new ministry at El­dersburg, Md., after serving as minister o.f the Community Church for the past seven years.

Other Businl'Ss

Council approved the appoint­ment of David Unger of Boxwood Village to the Recreation Advisory Board. Unger was nominated by Mayor Smith.

The historical oak tree on Cres­cent Rd., under which Mrs. Elea­nor Roosevelt and other dignitaries stood to watch the groundbreaking ceremonies for Greenbelt in 1935, will be preserved since it is on public property, according to City :Manager Gies<;.

City Notes Snow clearing operations contin­

ued through last weelt for the Pub­lic Works Dept. After the major plowi"g work of Tuesday and Wed­nesday, the crew set to worl< to clear the parking lots at the Cen­ter !Thursday and Friday e\·en· ingsl and the church parking lots (Saturdayl. In addition, the men did some hand shoveling of walk­ways and the mall area at the Center. Luckily, the Thursday snowfall turned out. to be muc!l smaller than anticipated. Only minimal plowing and sanding were necessary to keep streets in opera­tion throughout the city.

City employees who put in over­time hours during the snow emer­gency were paid at the regular hourly rate for the overtime hours.

Most members of City Council l'Xpe<'tl-d to attend a reception this Pvening at Annapolis. The recep­tion, a suppPr mcrting in honor of the legislators, was sponsor~d by the Prince Georges Municipal Association, a subsidiary of the Maryland l\!unicipal League. City Jl!anager JameN(. Gi<•se was also to attend.

A few WPPks ago the Public Works Dept. paved a short tem­porary sidPwalk from Ivy Lane to Ridge Rd. Designed to enable Lal<eside North school children to meet the school bus at a point on Lastner Lane, the sidewalk pro­\'ides access across a presently swampy place. Eventually, after the paving of Ivy Lane is comple­ted at that point. the pedestrian walk will no longer be necessary.

• • • The city crew also repaired a

chuckhole on Ridge Rd. near 59 court and sealed with tar various cracks in the pavement along Ridge in the North End. In the near future they pian to fix muddy spots along the path running along Crescent Rd. to Boxwood.

As a switch from mud and bro­ken pavements, the crew also went indoors to the Youth Center and installed ballet barres, a job made necessary because mountings had worked loose.

(;HI from 1'. I Cliff Simonson. the lone dirr·c­

tor who cast a vol" again"t the program, also was concerned that the program would tie up substan­tial reserves for a few members at the expense of the entire member­ship. GHI manager Roy Brea­•hears explained that GHI would be using its reserves to finance only the mortgage on the 4 homes, and not on the 25 townhouses. He pointed out that the 6 percent in­terest the corporation will net from the mortgages is in excess of the Interest now being received from its investments in savings and loan institutions

Audit committee member Sey­mour Kaplan charged that the hou­ses were luxury-type homes and th.us not in keeping with low-cost cooperative housing. Simonson said that the monthly charges required for these houses will be beyond the reach of most GHJ members. The corporation had ori­ginally hoped that the price of the houses could be kept below $22,000.

Other GHI board members de­nied that the houses had frills. Di­rector Jim Smith recounted the year-long discussions with the ar­chitect Edwin Ball in an effort to keep ·costs down He observed that prices are steadily going up. Direc­tor Katherine Keene added that the board d{d not want to skimp on good quality material. Director Steve Polaschik said that he has compared the prices of these homes with outside housing and is con­vinced that they are a good value.

Simonson expressed concern that the houses were not designed for large families. The homes will have four bedrooms, \vith family and recreation rooms available for con­version into bedrooms at the home­owners expense. Simonson also had reservations about the ~ompat­ibility of the homes with the sur• rounding area. ~, ! _,, ~-

Legal Qui'Stion · - · Bordenet was disturbed that one

of the purchasers .of the new homes is a GHI board member. He made clear that his concern only involved the possibility that certain legal questions might be raised over a transaction between the corporation and a member that is not made "at arm's length." The GHI board agreed to have the legal questions looked Into, but it was pointed out that the board member unquestionably met the criteria established for elisfbility <a large family, financial capabili­ty, and GHI ·membership1.

den~ Charles Schwan appointed a 3-man committee to consult with Woodland Hills and the city re­garding a request for a 4-foot ease­ment along the property line of the large homes lots on Northway.

PARCEL 1.'1, from P. 1 recommendations would be an op­r>ort•mitv to reduce the density of development In Greenbelt in ac­cord with the wishes of the County Commissioners when the p)an for Area 13 was rejected."

He told the Planning Board "Or­iginally, when the city supported multifamily development In the vi­cinity of Lakecrest Drive, It w• with the explicit written commit­ments of the property owner <Bresler) that the property would be developed at the very low deu­sity of seven units per acre which is comparable to the original piau­ned development in the city. Tbe developer failed to honor the.e commitments. Consequently," Gie­se concluded, "this area is bein&' developed at far higher densities than · originally planned, and the single family zoning recommended by the city would be an excellent way of preventing tbe overexten­sive concentration of apartments in this area which would occur if the petitioner's requests are granted."

With respect to the C-1 petition, Bresler indicated that a motel would be constructed on the 5-acft traot next to the Lepon since a n'eed existed because of the pnm­imlty of the Greenbelt Regional Park across the road. The city feels that access to a motel at thla spot would be poor because then is no nearby intersection to the' Beltway or Parkway. Tralle would have to use the American Legion service driveway from Lakecrest Drive.

In another related m\tter, Brea­shears announced that GHI's re­quest for a R-T <townhouse) zon­ing for the 5-acre tract opposite North End school will be heard by the county commissioners em Friday, February 17. The Mary­land National Capital Park and Planning Commission has recom­mended approval.

Funny, how electric air conditioning contractors react when the weather turns cold. Th~y turn on the saVIngs. ··

In the next few months, hundreds upon hundreds of · home-owners will discover what thousands already have-that cold weather is best for buying air conditioning.

For one thing, you save money. Electric air conditioning always costs

less to install. But in the winter, when con­tractors are not very busy, it costs even less.

There's no heat and humidity to pres­sure you, so you can take all the time you need to shop, talk to several contractors, work out the best deal.

You'll :find electric air conditioning contractors have plenty of time for you now ••. and the one you pick will have time to do the installation at your convenience.

Electric air conditioning gives you a wide choice of many brands and hundreds of contractors. Look in the Yellow Pages. You have a little time to lose. But only a little.

lretnbtlt City Adopts Revised Version Of Public Meeting Ordinance ltws · .. Btuitw by AI Skolnik

After three previous tries, the city council on .Monday. Febru· ary 20, finally adopted an ordinance regulating public meetings on publicly owned grounds. Action was taken after the council received a letter from State Attorney Arthur .Marshall advising that all ordinances are presumed to be constitutional unless other· wise determined and suggesting that council follow assistant city solicitor Mel Powell's recommendations. The council also received a letter from city solicitor Thomas Brooks advising that the pro•

8HI BOARD MOVES ON 3-PART PROGRAM TO IMPROVE PARKING

by Sid Kutne.r A comprehensive report on the parking situation in and around

Greenbelt Homes, Inc. properties was presented to the board of directors, at a special meeting Thursday evening. The purpose of the study, carried out by GHI administrative assistant William Johnston for manager Roy Breashears, is "first to clearly define the problem and ascertain in what areas additional parking is needed, and secondly, to make recommendations to alleviate the problem."

In making its statistical survey, the study breaks GHI up into 33 "clusters", ranging in size from two courts to ten courts. For each clust..r the statistics listed are: number of units, number. of park· ing spaces, street parking spaces, number of spaces per unit, owned or rented garages, and total park­ing spaces per unit. This last figUre is the interesting one; a value of one and a half (1.5) is considered to be the minimum rc­quil't'mcnt when constructing new apartments. according to the rc· port, and was found to be ade­quate also for GHI ~idcnts.

The 33 GHI clusters are there­fore divided into thr .c. general groups. Those having more than 1.5 parking spaces per unit are considered satisfactory, those be­tween 1.25 and 1.49 could benefit by some improvement and for those below 1.25 major additions are recommended. These additions would consist of two new parking lot! ,one between 2 Court Laurel and 14 Court Hillside, and one be­tween Courts 19 and 21 of Ridge road; three present lots would be enlarged, and street parking would be extended in two places.

The detailed report concludes with the facts that GHI residents own an average of 1.4 cars per family (justifying the 1.5 figure used above) and that overall, GHI has an average of 1.56 spaces per unit. It' is only because the spaces are not uniformly distributed that a problem arises.

Rt>conmwndn tions Board chairman Charles Schwan,

and chairman James Smith of the Parking Committee commend~d the authors of the study. Smith noted "it shows that our problem is not insolubl~." He therefore put a thr~~-part motion before the board, consisting of n·cotnmC'n­dations that <a> mnnagl'mcnt work with the city to g<'t on-stre~t park­ing spat·cs marked, <bl manag<'­lnt'nt indutiP minor improVl'tnents and parking lot t'Xtt·n:-;ions in its n·gular ma.tttll'nancP. program, and <e! the two new parking lots be <~on!-itructC'd after tinn.ncing ar­raugt~mPnts are workf'd out and members are polled.

lllfs. B. Hou,•n or 14-R Hillsid<• spokl' from the tlo01· in favor of the propos!'d nrw lots, stating "wr desperately nePd more parking." Seymour Kaplan suggested as a matt~r of caution that scale draw­lpss 1mght be urnwn up <•f the lots to visualize thdr impll t "" the neighboring an·as. lJm•ctor John 0 Reilly balhd only at thP prospect of ha,·ing more paint~u

which would presume that the ow­ner of record parked the car. 0' Reilly moved to request the city to pass such an ordinance. In the following discussion, the definition of "private property'' as applied to GHI was questioned by George Adams, and director Clifford Si­monson ftu'lhcr rtmarked that the language of the ordinance would of course have to take into ~count all the other types of housing in the city. With no serious dissent, however, O'Reilly's motion was passed.

·c;ty Notes Two blocks of streets in Spring­

hili Lake were formally accepted by the city at the city council meeting Monday night, Feb. 20. One was ·a section of Springhill Drive to Cherrywood Lane. Cher­rywood Lane was also accepted. l<'ormal accrptance of streets obli· gates the city to maintain them in the future. However, no streets are accepted until they pass a rigid inspection.

Pending approval after inspec· tion in January are streets in the Iyy Homes section of Boxwood Vil­lage. A few minor defects were discovered at that time, though the paving job is substantially complete. It is expected that the few remaining repairs will be com­pleted by the paving contractor as soon as good w~ather returns in the spring.

Approval from the bonding com­pany for David Building Co .. Inc., dPveioper of portions of Boxwood Village, and for Charles Burton Builders, dPveloper of the Lake· ,·r~ot subdivisipn, has been recciv~d by the city ··a;•thorizing completion uf strc .. ts for which those corpora­tions Rl'P rr~ponsiblf'.

City's Parkland leed lot to be Challenged

According to City Manager James K. Giese, the owners of parcels 9 and 10 <Crescent Leas­ing) and 11 and 12 <Charles Bres­l~r and associates) i)ave decided not to challenge the city's need for ad· ditional parkland. A hearing before the Prince Georges Circuit Court, scheduled for today, was called off. The next steps in the city's con­demnation suits to acquire the four parcels totalling 22 acres around Greenbelt Lake, are jury trials set for Ma'rch 7 and 14 to determine the purchase price of the land.

The city has received an open­space !:rant of $167,~75 from the U, S. Department of Housing and Urban Development to assist in the purchase of the land. The city council voted to engage in the open space program after the electorate approved a referendum by more than 5 to 1 in favor of tlw $250,000 bond issue to finance the purchase of the land.

posed ordinance is legally correct.:.. ------------First submitted in September

1966, the original proposal was se­verely criticized because it required that a person wishing to hold a public meeting must apply to the chief of police for a permit. accom­panied by a $5 fee. Fines and pen­alties were also included for fail· ure to comply.

• The ordinance as now adopted simply sets down procedures to be followed by those persons wishing to reserve public space for public meetings. Applications are to be filed with a council-appointed Di· rector of Public Safety I at pre­sent the city manager fills the post), rather than with the chief of police, not less than 5 days be· fore the meeting date. The direc­tor shall issue such a reservation if he finds: <ll that the meeting is not to be held for private profit; 12) that the meeting will not un­reasonably obstruct public travel; and (3) that rio other meeting is previously scheduled.

If the Director rejects an appli­cation, the ordinance permits an appeal ·to the city council. The Di­rector is also authorized to suggest a substitute alternative time and place for a public meeting. The ordinance also contains penalties for any person who interferes with a meeting for which a reservation has been issued.

In contrast to previous drafts the adopted ordinance makes it clear that public meetings can .be helq without a reservation. However, if such a meeting unreasonably ob­structs or interferes with pubUc travel, persons engaged In such meetings may be subject to fine. In response to questioning from the lloor, Mayor Edgar L. Smith said he interpreted this clause as referring not to persons who are casual onlookers but to persons who form or start such meetings.

cilman Dick Pilski wu not sure that this would provide sufficient sponsorship for guellts, and voted against the proposal.

The council also agreed to rais: the season pasa for non-Greenbelt residents from $411 to $liO per fam· ily and from $26 to $30 for single persons. The adult dally admission for Greenbelt residents would be raised from 75c to SOc, and that for child daily admission for non· Greenbelt residents also from 75c to SOc.

Hal Siegel, president of Citizen~ for a Planned Greenbelt, advised council that David Fentress, the Governor's new appointee as liai· son with Prince Georges and Mont· gomery counties, has MCepted the invitation of Councilman Francis White to meet with the Steering Committee of CFPG. The.-meeting Will take place this Saturday.

Mayor Smith said that he expec­ted to set up a council meeting 'with Fentress shortly and hoped that two such meetings would not be an Imposition on Fentress. Sie­gel said that council would be wel­come at the Saturday meeting. Whi·te explained that the purpose of his invitation was to have Fen­tress explain his new duties.

The council voted, with Dave Champion dissenting, to send thank-you letters to the county del· egation and the governor for the consideration shown Gt·eenbelt in its protests over the appointment of Charles Bzesler. No aotioft. was taken on a augeatlon ,t~ tile tJoor to follow-up wltb a reque.t !or a Jegj.slative hearing on the appointment.

Other Action

Council appointed Lal'ry Noel to the Recreation Advisory Board to replace Ralph J. Sines, who re· signed ... Council directed the city manager to take appropriate ac· lion to remove a safety hazard caused by excavations on the mall, urging W'SSC to immediately rc• pair a broken water main.
