Library lews By Elizabeth B. Rage

The great day has arrived! The :'ldministrative office of the Prince Geo.rgc-'s County Memorial Library is in its new home, at long last. Preparations have been going on over a long period of tlme and now the move to 5403 Annapolis Road, B:adensburg, is an accomplished lfact.

:noused in the rented spare of ll.'700 square feet loeated on two l!loors are the business oflices, the . materials selection department, the PJ"<'C('S"".ing oepartment, the mate­rials distribution center through which all branches are supplied and the bookmoblies ope!:'ated, the adult Services librarian, the coor­dinator of work with children, and the reference librarian. The book stock from which branches both mobile and stationary: art' · supplied is shelved here at headquarters.

This move from the old quarters, where we had 2,400 square feet of space. has been made necessary by the steady growth of the li­brary f:vstem over the first ten years of its existence. The library

. · persormel is to be highly com-i mended for the excellent spirit f'"'\Ch person has shown ln doing P-00<1 work under very trying space handicaps. The staff deserves these new accomodatlons, and _it is quite certain that servk:e throughout the library svstem will improve in the future when we are seWed in at 5403 Annai)Olis Road. The library's telephore number· remains the same - WArfteltt 7-4816.

PRINCE GEORGE'S COUNTY MEMOR:AL liBRARY

Council Hears Industria; Landowners; 'City Not: Brochures Attract Industry•

By Ibn-ell Greenbaum At a special meeting of the city council last Monday, callect

to consider ways and means c:.f promoting the industrial develop­ment of Greenbelt's commercial land, the council members quickly broadened their inquiry to the problem of overall community de­velopment. lr.dustrial development was subordinated to 'one phase of a comprehensive program, although an important one.

The decision to expand the coun­cil's program followed a report by city manager Charles McDonald 9f his talks with owners of the indus­trial area, about 100 acres of which extends from Edmonston R.lad west to the Baltimore and Ohio tracks. The owners reported that there was no immediate prc3pect of industry mov!ng in. Harry A. Boswell, co-owner of one of the parcels of land, said that the city council should do everything possi­ble to make the community more attractive to industry and to im­prove land values instead of think­ing in terms of a brochure. He referred particularly to the un­s:ghtly defense housing (frame homes) along the Southway en­trance and thE' Baltimore Parkway.

The 3ppearance of the communi­ty and the services it provided were mentioned as important fac­tors in bringing in industrial firms by SidnE'y Z. Mensh, who is repre­senting Morris A. Pollin. the own­er of the other portion of the land. Mensh said that industrial firms were less concerned about the tax rate than with what services are provided through taxes. If n•lt :provided by the municipality, then the firm must itself go to the ex­pense of subsidizing such services for its employees.

He indieated that one of tbe prin­cipal reasons fo:r the delay in the industrial development of the area is the lack of progress tn the con­struction of the new Inter-county BE'-lt Freeway which will come through Greenbelt. He said that

At:hletic Clu·b Nine Wins Thriller, 7-6

The Greenbelt Athlt:tic Oui'l haseball team defeated unbeaten Columbia Height., ln Greenbelt last Sunday by a scorE' of 7 to 6.

The Columbia Heights team scor­ed one run in the first, second and third innings to lead our boys by a score of 3 to 0. The Greenbelt guns went into action in the fifth inning to tie the sco.-e at three all. Tom Canning opened the inning with a home run·; Lagana follow­ed with a sing:e and ·crossed the plate on Bob Haspan's tremendous c1out to deep center field tor Greenbelt's second houte run of the inning .

The visitors pushed across three more runs in the seventh inning on Hanna's home run to lead our boys by a score of 6 to 3. Green­belt rallied for one run in the eighth inning when Huft'men scor­ed on Canning's third hit of the day.

Our boys, fighting an U3)hill bat­tle all the way, were determined to win and preserve their own un­beaten string by a spectacular :ninth inning finish. Haspan and Rector led off with safties and scored o.' Harbaugh's single ro deep right field. Curtis then doubl­ed home Harbaugh with the win­ning run.

Terry Collins, a converted Green­belt outfielder, tu'"'Jled in a thrilling· pitching performance to receive credit for the victory.

The Athletic Club's unbeaten re· cord will be thr'*ltened next Sun· day, in Green'oelt, when the·y meet St. Ambrose.

QUALIFIED? In order to be able to vote in

the city council elections in Scp~~mber, you must be a regis­tered voter. To qualit'y to reg­ister, you must be a resident of Greenbelt for the past six months prior to the election, and I a resident o! Maryland for a year, accordmg to Winfield Mc­Camy, city clerk.

Maryland's failure to move ahead' with this work Is now pointed up­by Virginia's approval of construe­tlon and setting dates for it to be­gin. Mensh said he has now aban­doned his origlnal hope of brlnglng in one big industry. Before offer­ing the land to smaller industries. ho .'lever, he must make cert&tr.. preparation's that requl're a large capital outlay, which he cannot. make at present. l!e aJso notedi that he hu other programs in mind not connected with industry but. which he is not at liberty to divu)p yet .

In contrast to th~ Mell3h view. Boswell said he is still holding out for a major industry to movl: in'-· hls land and is not coDidderiD~ d-. fering the land to smaller bual--. nesses. He felt that the job o£ bringing in industry is Diueh ead-­er if one large firm moves in first •. and he is still throwing out feeler&.

Councilman Ben Goldfaden, a member of the Prince Georges In:­dustrlal Development Committee, said that this group, which has a paid director, is now c~mcentrating on preparing a brochure to be sent

. to every major manufacturer in the country. Goldfauen himself was not enthusiastic about the brochu"' approach but felt that a personal representative should be sept to New York to sell the county. Th"'­commlttee indicated that thia might be done following the df.._ trit.ution of the brochure . It became apparent to the coun­

cil members that the eommunity­itself would be the main attract­tion to ~ndustry, and they decided! to concentrate on improving this asset. Mayor Tom Cannhty said the plans of G:-eenbelt · H'omes, ble. <formerly GVHC> for reflnlshfns the t-xterior of the old North End Co-op store <actually a unit of fr<1me homes) look vtry attractive-. However, it was agreed that frame; home owners could not be forced to shoulder the financial burden of similarly improving their own units. Goldfaden suggested that GHI do all the units and spread the­payments by home owners over a ten-year period.

Councilman Bob Hurst felt the only solution was through the Ur­l>rm Renewal Agency, which baa the au~hority to condemn housin.r and re'<l!'velop it. However, thi•­wou'd hiP"<> to be a long-range pro-: ~ram. a..,rl the tremendou~r prob­lem of resettling the present resf., dents wot~~d h'\ve to be worked out. Goldfaden thought a joint mee~ng should bP held with GHI to worlr ~ward a. definite solution of this problem.

O>uncilman Alan Kitaler, who initiated the discussions on indue­trial development in a special statement to the council last month. proposed a ni .. e-man Greenbelt Planning and Development Com,. mittee, which would include two coun< i1 members, that wo~lld study all phases of community develop­ment. This would cover housing. transportation, parks, streets and roads. and landscaping as well ali industrial deve<opment. Each Item would he handled by a subcommit­tE-e.

Kistler said he disagrred with the recent editorial in the Ne\ll'B Re­view, which challenged claims tJ"_ftt industry would bring a subotantial incret'.se in revenue to the cit:'. He referr~d to more than one stud,. which showed that industry gen­erPtE>s new economic development a"d in one case paid taxes that ex­ccedPd b:v 170 percent the cost of­services provided bv the munlci­rutlit:v. Althcugh he re>!ognlzed that these studie-s would not nee--,. ~>ssarily anply to Greenbelt unle&S­the situations we·re compR.rable, he­felt that this demonstrated a gen­eral pattern that industry is likely to contribute more than it takes.

Another spec~al meeting on the same suhject will be held this Mon-. day. .Ju!:v 29. These m.eetlngs are­being held to a g :30 p.ru. adjourn ... ment time.

eN()w Is The Time .... ' One of the most honored jobs in Greenbelt is the position of

clti' C01Jilcilman. In the·past those who have served on that august ~y ha .. -e, without exception, made some contribution to the com­:muruty. . CitiZens have accepted the responsibility of councilmen ·without thought of personal gain. but solely for the opportunity to

>apply their talents and wisdom to !he improvement of Greenbelt ·~ lts citizens. ·

· ltecent ~lections have been noted for their serenity. They :have. h,sd no real .. issues", and the comparatively few candidates ba:ve diisp~yed the vigor and eagerness of a 'torpid turtle. Also the turnover of councilmen has been consistently small, with-few -~ faces seen on each succeeding council. The last two years,

1 bo\vever, have been marked by a major turnover in local popula­.tiona. There are two new housing developments, and many old­-time residents have moYed from our city. Greenbelt's face and 'figure ·have been changing, slowly but sureJy. .... '

The ideal council reflects all views current in the commuttity. · · ·· 'It acts ·on policy and programs to 'bring +he most possible benefits

for the greatest majority. It is responsive to the individual's needs ·as well.&S to eommunity desires And like an individual, the c:>m­. :munity's. needs a:td desires change from year to year. There are ..ne,.,... problems, new aproaches and new answers.

. Nothing inspires citizenship so much as participation. The . 'democratiC process encourages participation. Greenbelt is happily ·endowed with a wealth of talent from many fields of endeavor, many of our citizens would make great contributions to the com­munity if given the chance.

.. · . City council elections are quickly approaching. There is little .• 1 ;'itime until September. It is now that Greenbelt residents should

. !be giving serious thought to running for office or encouraging 1qualified candidates to throw their hats In the ring.

L'il Leaguers Stage Sixth All-Star Game

By J. U. Acker

Last Sunday, July 21, a ·goodly

nt•mber of G~enbelters were treat­ed to some very fine baseball flS

the. Little League staged its sixth annual all-star game. It was strictly a pitchers' day; the six

boys who worked on the mound wc:re migl'~ty stingy with hits. The

hurler:1 for the Nat.ionai. League

were Phil Mill~r. Dan Henderson, and Lou Carusso. The American League bo:;s relied on the strong

arms of Tommy Arnsdorf, Kirk

McCawley, and Ken Powell.

George Fleshman, an Indian, scored the or.ly run of the game in the bottom of 'the third. He ar­rived at first on an error, wa·s sacriti~ed to second, took tdird on

. an infield chance, and scored on ·a clean single down the middle by Phil Miller. As the game progress­ed, thut one run loomed bigger and bigger.

The g-ame was tight, and there w~re many fine defensive pl~­a run cut off at nome, two quick double plays, and several fine out­field catches. Each "all-star" brought nothing but credit to hifl team, the Little League, and Green­belt

Helpful Hints For Back-Seal-Drivers

"taking char:tces" were accepted by both sexes a.bout fifty per cent of the time. As this type of sugges­tion implies a direct criticism of the driver's skill a=td judgment~ most preferred not to be qu&stioned on it uy the '"hack seat driver." Here again more favorable re­sponse was obtained by the "fifth column"' than the "blitzkreig" ap­proach.

July 25, 1957 GREENBELT NEWS REVIEW Three ---~--~----------------~---- ~~-w~·~~~-~-~-~~~-~-~~~-~-~-~--~$~-~-·~.,~~A-,~~~~

"Watch out-you'll kill us all driving like that." said the wife in the back ·seat clutching the c!:lii­dren "to her side.

"Oh, shut-up,' said the husband, as he gripped the steering wheel tighter and pressed the gas pedal closer to thE': floor.

.Just such tableaus are enacted each d&y as families spin along the nation's highways with "'back seat" riders lashing the horseless-carri­age driver with unkind remarks.

But the "back seat driver," in­stea6 (If being a thorn in the opera­tor's back, needling him with caus­tic comment, can be a valuable co­pilot, 2.ccording to an Institute For Safer :Living survey.

Six-hul"'dred couples across the nation were interviewed on their spouses' "back seat driving" tech­niques ..

Advice from wife to hu&band be­ginning with "honey" was much better received than the sam.e sug­gestion prefaced by ''Look, Buster,'' the stJ rvey showed. -

If the advice was given sympa­thetically and wisely, it could be a great force for automotive sa:fety, the C<l·Uples agreed.

In a total of 2,7~ emergency "calls" remembered by the drivers as coming from the "back seat" nearly a thousand of these helped avoid accidents or traftic viola­tions.

WhE·n men arP. in the back seat, they not orly call the attention of their wives to oncoming c'l.anger but also tell them how to handle the situation. Women, the Institute surve) shows, seem willing to let hubby handle the situation after calling his attention to the trouble.

But· if either spouse was thought to be trying to get even for the morning's burnt toast rather than teying to heJ.p the ·driver, the "sug­gestion' usually wasn't accepted:

The survey uncovered these ·lead­ing "a.lerts" given most frequently'. by "back seat drivers."

Spe~~d was the most common cause of comment. Indication of the value of this comment comes from the fact that the suggestion was taken favorably twice as often by both sexes as it was rejected. B"ut tact was necessary, or it was usually ignored.

The second most frequently.' made comment was on following the Cltr ahead too closely. But the warning, "Don't crawl up his back," hardl~r helps matters. Wben the suggestion was made diplomatical­ly to a spouse, it was considered favorably forty per cent of the time--helping to avoid a pileup of cars on the highway.

OnE· {)f the best accepted sug­gesti<; ns of all, the survey showed, was a. comment about a driver's tiredne~s. Here again the "Honey, you'v•e bad a hard day" approach was Jnuch better than "Hey, dt..,Jey, wake up."

The Greenbelt Ba~ Ruth League All-Stars won their first game in the Maryland State Tournament by forfeit from Elkton. The team plays in the semi-finals on Friday, July 26. at 4:30 on the Glenn L. Martin Field in Baltimore. Mem-

Arthur S. .Johnson. director of the Institute. believes all of these back-seat comments are good, be­cause they follow the principle that four eyes &J1Ld four ears are better than two.

.Johnson stated that if .. back seat" drivers will '!'emove the .. sting" from their tongues and substitute Ctlurteous warning or suggestions, they will help cut the accident toll on the highways by becoming valu­able co-pilo1ts.

Business Review By Cbuek Boyntoll

Greenbelt Realty Company was founded in 1954 by Abe Chasanow. Located in what once was our po­lice station (151 Centerway), Greenbelt Realty has prospered in its yee.ra of activity. Abe and his wife, Helen, who is also &ctive in their real estate venture, were among the original "local" resi­dents to engage in business in Greenbelt. as well as being among the first to open their doors for commercial business in the Cen­ter. Since 1939 they have been liv­ing R-t 11-T Ridge.

The Chasanows, who envision re­maining Greenbelters fo:- some time, are now planning a home at the Lakeside d~velopment, which is expected to be ready for occu­pancy by this fall. The Lakeside development, incidentally, is one of Abe's many enterprises. He in-

. forms us that only seven lots are still available for those who might be contem;plating a home in that a!'ea. Depending on size and lo­cation, these ;ary in pri~ from $2700 to $3600.

Homes constructed or under con­struction in that area, to date, run from $18,000 to $45.000. Abe also has been cooperating with the Woodland Hills development, which at last report had only twelve lots remaining, ranging in price from $2900 to $3400. Homes at Wood­land run from $16,000 to $2.1,000. Of interest to prosnective buyers is the advantage of having costs in storm sewers and paved roads in­cluded in the price of the lots. Buyers ma.y choose their own plans for homes constructed on the lots, and. if they detoire. do their own contracting or build themselves.

Acting as gene.-al counsel, Abe was responsible for setting •lp our Greenbelt Veteran Housing Cor·· poration. as well as its predeces­sors. He is currently th.e agent for Gilbert Realty· Co., which handles the commercial property in the ~Pn,ter. As such, he is responsible for insuring that the best possible tenants are located in this area.

Richard Talbert, son of Mr. and Mrs. G. Talbert, 60-A Crescent, and Miss J'une Ramey, daughter of Mrs. Marie Sullivan of Washing­ton. D. C. were married in St. Anthony's Catholic Church on Saturday, .iune 22.. Rev . .John Ecc­leston performed the wedding ceremony. The bride was given in marringe by her uncle, Sylvester Kalpack. Sibyl Sullivan, sister of the bride, was maid of honor and the best man was Ro~rt Talbert, brother of the goom.

The bride was charming in her wedding gown of ballerina length white embroidered lace featuring a sweetheart neckline and bouffa'llt skirt. Her veil of illusion was held by a tiara of seed pearls. The maid of honor ·wore pale lavender also fashioned in the bouffant stylE':. The mother of the groom was attired in pastel pink sheer while the bride's mother chose natural in a sheer fabric.

Following the wedding ceremony, a reception was held in the VFW Hall on Rhode Island Ave:nue. The couple is now living at 7-B Park-way.

It is the_n up to the drivers and navigators of the sport cars, who leave the point of origination at intervals to reach these points at spedfied _times. The team with the most points wins. Some of the rallies are planned as sca­venJ•er hunts with each team rid­ing too a given point and receiving instr-uctions for the nen designa­tion. while others may start at midnight and end at 6 a.m. with everyone breakfasting togeth~r.

PRINCE GEORGE;S COUNiY­MEMORIJ\L LIBR.,~.RY

Whatever happens •••

By RUM Greenbaum

C"lntinuing my special series of or!entation lectures to newcomers to Gref"nbelt (or just stay a while --you might get tt> like it), this weoek I shall describe one of our mnst sacred and traditional insti­tutions-the car pool. The Wash­ingtcn a~ea probably has the larg­est concentration of car pools than an:'\owhere else ·in the world. and Greenbelt supplies more of them than any other community in the area. I believe there's hardly any major government building that does not have a Greenbelt car pool going there--kbe Navy Dept .. Pen­tagon, State Dept., Government Printing Office, Sam's Bar & Grill <it's really a CIA building).

--Genera.lly there are two kinds of car pool. The most popular kind is the drivers' pool in which each member shares the driving-usual­lv each porson driving once a week. Then there is the riders' pool in which one person drives in every day with passengers whom he chAT<"f!S n nr,minal tee. (A nominal fP.f'> means: "If you don't like what I charge. you can walk!'') Both hnv .. the:r Advan"&ges and dis~<i­va..,tages which the newcomer will wRnt to consider carefully before tak'ng- th~ plun~.

• •• Remember to Res~~tej'!

A drivE-rs· pool Is frr.qu~ntly run hv OJ'P, person who bas bePn for­tunRt~ enough to obts!n thAt prPc­ious ni~>Ce of cardboard known as " parking permit. This entitles the holiif!r to park his car fr~ of ch:tr<>'e in .a lot within one mile of the buildin!Z. This is particularly true of the Navy Dept., which firm­Jv be1ieves that there's nothing lik~> a bri~<k 15-minute morning w~Jk to bring you to your desk fully ale'rt and ready to tackl~

your mCJ•mlng coffee. There are l'ther pf\!"king passes which entitle the holder to park right next to the building, but you have to havf> something on the boss to get one of those .

Now let's consider the advant­~es. By driving one10! a week, you havP frE"e transportation the rest of the w~k and your wife has the use of the car if she drives. I ad­mit this sounds good. but don't be deceived. All these years you've avoided tea~bing your wife how to drhoe ·with the excuse that yo•t need the car so there's no point in her learning. Now there's the car sitting out in back four days a week. Before long you'll be grit­ting you:r teeth as your wife grinds the ge~us from first to second. But maybe she already drives. This is just as bad. With the car not available, your wife thought :noth­ing of the five or ten minute walk to the Center. Now she gets into t"f' car to visit someone in the next court. Don't be surprised if your weekly gas bill is no lower after you join a drivers' pool.

Anoth•!!r apparent advantage is that for· five days a week each morning and evening for aboui: 30-40 minutes each you have a captive audien~! on which you can unleash your stories and witticisms and gripes on what's wrong with Greenbelt. It is also one cof the main lines of the Greenbelt Grape­vine, which carries stories around town ftl.St:er than the speM of sound. Many a <;X)nversation at social gatberingu start with, "Say, I heard in my car pool today that­( choice· of three: 1) the city tax rate is going up, 2) the city tax rate is going down. 3) city tsxes are goi1:1g to be abolished.) Car pool members are also loyal sup­porters. In fact, joining a car pool is a prerequunte if you want to run for any office in town. Well, that should give you some idea of the goodies in store for you Jn a Green­belt car pool. More on this subject later.
