.It By Le8tle Bel biDson

Robert <Bob> Hun;t, 5 H East­way, a Greenbelt City Councilman

cfor the past 4 years, will not run tor cit-.1' council in the coming elections because Qf the great amount of time needed to carry out adequa~y tbe duties of a couneilnean and the increasing de­mands upon h.is tiDI.e at his re­gular job. Hurst .said he a.lso would UI~e to give mo.te time to his wife, Doris Lee, s.nd children David, Carol Lee, anq. ~igh Allan.

·task which includes directing a television program. His travel on their job keeps him away trom home 35 to 40 days n year. ' The most important job facing the council, Hunt ·bE!Jieves, is tbe planning necessary fc•r the orderly and desirable develo)>ment of the community. Very important 1n this planning is the futu.re appoint­

·ment by the council of a citizen•s committee to study :general plan­ning and development and make recommendations to. the council . Some immediate planlting is neces­sary to ensure a fav~>rable climate for industrial devel<•pments and preparing, a budget :~or long-term developments.

Lower Dowa Payments At Woodway Ho•es, I-.e.

Anthony .M. Madden, President of \Voodway Homes, Inc:, local non-profit residential home build­ing group, announced ooday that lhe new lower F.H.A. down-pay­ments would be ·accepted by th~ group for new home construction in Woodland Hills - Greenbelt's new residentie.l subdivision. The new down-payments will be. $1800 o:r.. 3-bedroom and $2800 on 5-bed­room homes. Madden pointed out that these down-payments cover­ed not only the iand and completed brick home, but also all land im­provement work such as sewer, water, stonn drains, streets, and individual custom I a n d.scaping, items that are not ordinarily in­cluded in the down-payment in the average home 'purchase. Mad­den cautioned, however, · that the lower the down payments the high­er t.~e monthly payments and in­terest - and that a higher down­payment where possible is pre­ferable.

Besides the 21 completed homes, 3 new ones are now under con­struction, and the builder will add about 2 monthl.f to his building schedule 1,1ntil the remaining 10 are finishe-d. Madden stated that preference would be given to local families for the few remrumng openings available in Woodland Hills.

Du,,licate Bridge The first monthly duplicate

bridge game of the 1957-58 season will be held by the Greenbelt Bridge Club Friday evening, Sep­tember 6, at the social room of the Center School, elub director AI Skolnik announced this week. The game will begin promptly at 8:45.

Skolnik · extended an invitation for 8.11 bridge playen to partici­pate. "You do not have to be familiar with duplicate bridge pro­cedure," he stated. '"\Ve will teach you all you need to know in a few minutes. All we ask is that all players aasemble at the build­ing on time."

The Bridge Club is now entering its seventh season of duplicate competition. Ga.mes are held re­gularly the first Friday of each month from September through June. An added feature this year is the new plastic-coated playing cards obtained for the dupliccte boards.

YOUTH CENTER DANCE The Youth Center will hold Its

By Bnae Gftlenbaam

Is something going to be dane about the situation at Greenbelt Junior High School? A number of parents, disturbed by the re­ports of constant rowdy behavior in the school, would like to know the answer to this question. U they asked Mr. Francis Furgang, principal of the junior high, he would tell them-as be told me during a recent viait he paid me to discuss the matter-that he bas the situation well in hand and that there will be a decided improve­ment during the coming year. He bases this statement on the fact that the cOlDpletion of the new addition will eliminate the serious­ly overcro'Wded condition of the school by giving him four addi­tional classrooms.

As some of my readers may ·recall several weeks ago I w;ote a column describing the situation at the junior hi.gh from the. view­point of severai of tl:.e students there. I notad that the .serious­ness of the discipline problem at ~he junior high }Vas indicated by an impromptu meeting of parents last winter whc got together when they . felt that they oould" get no sat>sfaction from. the junk)r high PTA group. · The students general~ ly gave the impression that ·some of the classrooms ;w~re in a· _con-: Stant l,lproar; frOD}, students ·.:who were regularly causing trouble. This situation, as they saw it, was · aggravated by a few' tefi.chers who could not handle these trouble­makers and, as a result, :were_doing a poor teaching job ... The students · also reported -th~t repti!ated often- , ders sent down to the principal's office did not appear to receive any strict discipline.

Just last week I received a letter from a junior high parent who describes in detail the experi­ences of her 14-year oid son dur-

.ing the past year at the junior high. This mother is new to Green­belt. She says her son, whom we shall call Tommy, attended a. school the previous year "where discipline was enforced and I do mean e!lforced. To be expelled meant staying out . ot school a length of time. . _.. . She said the first incident happened when a class was in session. A boy, wbo belongs to a group who apparently can . themselves "tough guys," snatched from Tommy a clipping prepared for the class. When asked tor its return, he was punch­ed in the mouth, ruining his front teeth and undoing a lot of ex­pensive dental work that he had had to undergo. Tommy became ill from this, and she went to school to report the matter. As a result, ·~he child in question finish­ed beating my son on the North End School grounds that evening."

She then goes on to report that Tommy's lunches were stolen from his locker days on end. (Apparent­ly the thief had managed to flnd out the combination.) If he got to his locker Defore his lunch was taken, it would be knocked .to the floor while he was trying to eat it. Meanwhile, articles would be grabbed out of his locker. ~Finally, ple lunch problem got so bad that I had once again to contact the principal."

"'Twice the boy's pants and un­rlerwear were almost removed by groups, while in the presence of groups of both boys and girl&. (Apparently this is a favorite trick of the wtough guy.e, especialy on the sch(\ol bus. Once he returned home with lipstick smeared all over a good reversible jacket, which waa never completely wash­ed out."

This mother also compbJned that, one teacher gave him low grades an·d yet never gave him a bit of home work. She said wben she called the teacher to diacUS8 the matter, th~ teacher had nothinat to say. The mother aald that Tom­my's English text book wu not used for month& at a time. <It should be noted tbat thia m,.y be one of the teachen that Mr. Fur­gang reported wu recently let go.)

Tommy's mother also Mmplained about the band el&ll8. Wben she went to question the Instruction her son was JrettJng, .abe wu told by ttw lnatruetor that Tommy kept

The Other Side Of The Story To t:1.P Editor:

The Greenbelt Pet Owners As­sociation is doing its best to sway public opinion f<>r allowing pets in Greenbelt Homes. When photo­grs.phers come out, the pets are neatly tied up, but no publicity is given to these same pets that are kept locked up in houses while the owners work, and then are left out to prowl around sand boxes, flower beds, and hedges when their owners want to air out their houses after coming home from work.

Cheap publicity is not the type of tbir..g we w~t if we are to keei' Greenbelt the moder city that it was at its very beginning, and that tt can continue to be. The actions af the GPOA within recent weekf.l are not those that en­co~,Lrage love of neighbor and· res­pect for the rights of others.

If we all adopted the philosophy of ~:>ne of our Greer..ba't residents, this unwanted notoriety would he gone within a week. The rhilo­sopby is: "I like dogs. hut feel that all the other advantages of living in Greenbelt outweigh the disad­vantage of not owning one••.

Greenbelt ProJiles By Barbara Gilmore

It must be a delightful feeling for the residents of the 10 Court of Hillside to have their children lullabied to sleep with melodious strains from Bach, Beethoven, and Brahms by BOB GRACE, 10-D H:.llside. and clarinetist with the United States Army Field Band . Having just returned from a two and a half month twelve-nation good will tour of Europe, Bob is now on furlcugh getting som2 much needed rest until they pack up again for the next-in-the-list New England tour.

Bob first became interested in pl!Lying the clarinet while in We­woka (Oklahcma) High 1School. A neighbor who taught the instru­ment started his study that later be1~e a vocation. After h.fgh school, be studied Music Education at Oklahoma University and sp~nt hls !iUDlmers with the Oklahoma City Symphony. •v-J day .. passed and :em went. back to Oklahoma University to gain som.e semester hours, ~n making use of hits summer vacatlone by p~g tUB ~arinet.

It waa at a State F'Wr l.n Louisi­ana, during summer vaeatl~. th&t BW met his wife Jane who wa.s daneing in the fair. .Aa ;Jane puts It "We never had two dates in the same state". Incidently, Janie ,. RD a.ceompllshed dancer in :t:ler own right, having once been a devot..ee of ballet and now in eemi­retirement from "The Lotus Bloa· aoms:", a gioup t:b&t appears at the Lotus Club here in Wuhing· tott. 'This state fair could bi! labeled a milestone in Bob's Ufe foJ' it was here also that he met a form.er G. I. buddy who con­viltCiHI him to re-enlist. Since then, Bob has covered many miles with the band, including the en­tire forty-eight states. His most recent trip was th~ Europe-an so­journ that just ended.

A clarinetist for the past twenty ye.:::.rs, and member of the Army for thirteen of those years, Bob rea!ly enjoyed his trip aboard, with th•e exclusion of the "Euro­pean Breakfast". Hard rolls and black coffe€ ccnstituting the official morning meal in" most countries and a deficiency of chefs during the regular breakfast interval '-lroke mainspring on Bob's taste buds and made his heart focus towards good ole USA and our un­paralleled ham and eggs. How­ever, one could hardly complain, he relates, when the people of these countries went~ all out in some instances trying to please by mak­ing such ·~on cessions as serving salami for breakfast-something they considered truiy American!

During the Portugal perfor­mance the lights went out, (the electrical system not being up to par in that. country) and the ent'tre band had to wait patiently until lights were once ag'!lin restored, Bob remembers.

While in France, Bob splurged and bought a set of clarinets; a set being composed of a B-flat, an A- and an E- flat~ The B-ffat usually being used in bands, while the A is used in orchestras and the E-flat used for special effects; it is s!milar in tonal quality to the flute.

The ::-ecent European tour was snonsored by the State Department it, hopes of depicting for the people of other nations the music for which our country is famous. The program generally contained such selections as "On The Trail", from the Grand Canyon Suite, "'Long Before I Knew You", some marches and occasionally original comPOsitions by members of the band. The Star Spangled Banner was g.lways first on the list with The Stars and Stripes Foreve·~ last, often with tw:> encores. From the bullfighters' arer.a in Spain to the courtyard of the royal palace of Prin~e Rair.ier and Princess Grace in MonaCD. these spellbound and enthusiru;tic crowds totaling 350,-000 sat and often stood to hear the performances. Language, eco­nomic standard!" and customs of g .. oups in our society can create obvicus barriers; but we still are an members of that great cg.te-gory. homo sapiens. We all have a pair of ears. brains to regi-;tcr our emotions ant1 souls that do not go lmstirred. \Vhat could be a bet­ter way for us to spread what we

Is your n~igbbor a little more friendly than usual? Does he wave and give you a big Sl'l'lile whenever he comes within a hundred yards? Is he busy cutting his grass and fix!ng up his yard?

If so. then the chances are that he is one of the ten candidates runnlnJ;- for council and he is not sure whether or not you are one of the 1097 registered voters who will elect or defeat him come September 17. This time of the year there is a lot of good fellow­ship wasted on non-registered citizens--to say nothing of the sneaky registered hypocrites who intend to vote for somebody else.

It was simpler and more efficient several years ago when we ran two slates and the whole town was split wide open into two zealous and vocal canlps. There was none of the Alphonse and Gaston poli­teness or "let the best man win" stuff. A town meeting was worth while goi:lg to, with the auditorium jamm.ed to the rafters and the candidates slugging it out on the stage. Oh, for the good old days when a candidate didn't dare enter your yard unless he was sure of bow you stood. Tom Canning's cn~.t was badl~ torn by a husband pushing him out and a wife pulling him in when he went campaigning tQ a split family. And, as for hafr pulling, well, you wouldn't know, "Curley" Canning then. He and Ben Goldfaden are the only two old hardbitten campaigners still in the fray.

So much for past history,-as for this election, look the list of ten over carefully · and take your cnmce. It looks to rue as though we'll have as good a council next year as we had last year, and just as high taxes, too. And you surely can't sue me for that sage remark, even if you can figure it out.

Oh yes, and don't forj!l;et that Wolfe, who is a Lion, will be chairman of a town hall meeting to badger the candidates on Septem­ber 12 flO be foxy and cotne.
