Taking Stock With the election of Mrs. Elizabeth Harrington as Mayor of

Green belt almost a certainty, our city can look forward to inspired an~ c0urageous leaderr;hip. Her career in the local political arena is mar:<ed by alertness, honesty and integrity. Never has any can­didate accumulated so many votes, an obvious sign of the r...'CogxJ.i­tion by Greenbelt citizens that her record of service in the past cou~ciJ is outstanding. As mayor, she will be able to extend her activit: es to our greater advantage ..

,Tl.e next two years will be crucial years in the life of our city. The council will fa'!e problems that will tax their patience and in .. telligenct>~ The resignation of ~rancis Lastner from the board of Green1:elt Cor..sumer Servjces so that he can devote his full effort~; as a member of the council is another indication of the awareness we all 3hare of future difficulties. All of us, devoted and committed to maintaining a ,decent home in an exemplary environment, realize that this will not come, to us through wishful thinking. We have a council dedicated to work for the best interests of Greenbelt in co~on bond with its residents. We have capable leadership. Bl.Jt it will take the active support, the brotherly encouragement, and the unite:! efforts of every' Tf;Sident to realize the "dream'' . . • our own home in Greenbelt.

Uo lke CJitor LONG LETTER

I shculd like to express my sm­cere t!1 1.nks to those friends and neighbors ,.,.ho were kind enough to' vote for me in 'the Council elec­tion. J also commend those who voted for the other candidates for their go6d citizenship in fulfilling their civic right and duty by ex­pressing their preference through the ballet.

The fact that I lost out by one vote should, I hope, pro\· e the point that every single vote counts. oe course, I wasn'• too surprised to lose by one · vote as I was some­what de ubtful of a certain Co-op typhoon s vote' from the very be­ginning.

Instea i .o'i paying the cost of a recount, I have purchased a tele­.vision set at a greatly reduced. price which vrill entertajn me o~ Mon­da:> ever jngs. Then, too, the Coun­cil's los:; is the Co-op'<> gain, for now I uill have more time to de­vote to t!te many GCS management problem~. and maybe help reduce excessive~ overhearl and increase pa­tronage returns for the customers.

Along Our Street with Aunt Penny

A Long Distance telepho_ne call from someone in the fam­ily who's away from home usually means a great deal. So I understand how excited Mrs. Sholl must have been to hear from her boy, Don, who's in the Army. She told me he called from San Francisco this morning and that he'd be

' home on furlough next month.

I was so h!!ppy for her I didn't stop to think that I had been using the telephone a lot during the morning, making arrange­ments for the coming church festival. If I'd been on the line when Don caUed, he wouldn't have gotten through because Mrs. Sholl and I share the same telephone party line.

It made me realize how im­portant it is for party-line neighbors to use their tele­phone service ''sharingly." Next time I have to call a number of people, I'll certainly allow some time between calls so that others on the line have a chance to make and :receive calls too.
