Greenbelt To Join New Supe•- City?
By George C. liteevef.: Greenbelt is on c·f numerous
Prince Georges County municipalities which might be consolidated into "one city" or some other form of large urban unit, according to plans now in their izlitial stages. Promoted for several years by the Chambers of Commerce of several towns strung along the Baltimol'l£ Boulevard, the idea has resulte<l in the appointment by the county I!Ommissioners of a 21-member citizens' study committee, authorized by the state legislature at its last session.
'J'he probiem of kocal governmen in Prince Georgl!S CoiJnty is complicated by the g1·owing number of town governtnents whose territories often adjoiic each other. Gerrymandered betweE•n towns are numerous areas, under county
·• ~jurisdiction, thickly ·::IUilt-up but not part of any town. The possibility of ~ch a county area being developed commercially and residentially in an isl~.nd partially surrounded by the city of Greenbelt was highlighted k1.st week by The Cooperator in its account O'f the p]la.ns for build[ng in 1the Schrom airport zone,
Harry A. Boswell, :rr., of Chillum, is temporary secretary of the 21-member committee,. which 'has not yet held its first nteeting. The group will have the professional services of Dr. Homer Hoyt, economist whose salary is paid jointly by .f.he county and the MarylandNational Capital Park and Plannine Commission. H·'!O.rings and local in•formation meetings will be

The truck convoy of Greenbelt's own Battery A of the 224th Field Artillery Battalion, Maryland National Guard ·pulled ir.to town on Saturday behind the red guidon which they had followed for e. suc.cessful two-week period of field training at A. P. Hill Military Reservation and Camp Pickett, Virginia. That Saturday night was the first night spent under a roof or in a bed by the mero.bers of the unit since leaving Greenbelt on
·June 2:1.
Rigorous Training Their activities in t:re.ining in
cluded operation und·~r blackout conditions; participation with the
I
· rest of the Battalion in a battalion test, which was com;:>leted in a manner which would do credit to a Regular Army, unit; and destruction of a concrete pillb:>x by direct fire. But rigorou.s training did not occupy all the ·time, and there were swimming parties, church services in the field .for all faiths, and a Battery party which will be long remembered.
In addition to good eoats of tan and a few chiggers, the ruembers <1f the Battery bring back with them the congratulati<•ns of their Battalion Commander on a job well done and memories of the work and the fun wll ich will be retold over tnanY corning campfires in many future c:;~ps.

City Studies Wa~, To Malc.elalce Pa~,
H.)W to make money on the increased attendance e.t the lal~e
picnic area puzzled the city council at its meeting last Mondf•Y night. They finally gave up the problem after deciding it was too late in the year to begin any plan.
City manag(~r Charles McDona'!d submitted a :-eport on the situation outlining several plans. The first called for "courtesy car<f:;" ·for Greenbelt citizens, with outsiders paying an admission fee. McDonald stated this was not "fool-proof" and was costly, as -:xpcrience with swimming pool cards disclosed.
Another plan included renting a concession stand for refres~t
ments with pienic tables surrt>un• ling the area; but McDonald d !clared that usually citizens obje !t to the high prices •for refresltments need en to show a prof. t. Aiso, adequd'ce b.lld competeLt concesf;ion outfits -R.re rare.
The last plan envisioned ca:~s
entering the picnic area direct: y through a gate where a fee would be paid. Looal people would walk to the park and enter free. Parl:ing along the road would be r<?stricted. Thifl, McDonald adde·l. would be expensive. Help at tr. e entrance gate and policing tr. e grounds would be necesesary.
Meanwhile, the council authol'ized the city manager to refu~ e permission fol· any group largEr than 30 persons to attend the lake picnic area, unless it is solely a Greenbelt request. Lack of ad(~quate tables and sanitary •facilitiE s made this regulation necessa~r.
McDonald declared.

ThP city is concerned wi t.h t IH· improper building of feC~cC.' a:"_d
cutting walks into hedgPs enU ring directly on city streets. it was disclos(·d at the city council m"etmg last ~onday night. City managf'r Charle-s ::\tcDonald statr d it had placed a "double load" on trash and garbage collectors. and also violated planning commissions' zoning laws.
Many new •fpncc_s interfere ,dth driveways and walks, promoting traffic hazards. Some residents have built new walkways directly to a gate in tht" hedg·es facing thP street. ::\fcDonald declared that such practice is in direct violation of the "Greenb£>lt plan."

Pass Plan At: Poc,l Co~i:ing Cily Exl:ra
The city council has authorize·~ the transfer of $1500 within th•· swimming pool account to cove-r cost of salaries and exP<'nS<>s d('rived mainly from th<" "rPsiden • pass" plan. which permits loc.'1.1 citizens to attend the swimming pool at a lower rate th&.n outsid(:ro<_ Of the sum transferred, SlOOO came fro::n money originally included in the budget 'for rent to Public Hou.sing Administration: since the pool was dedicated to the city at a later date that money was not needed.
City manager Charles McDonald ,~xplained that added costs res·Jlted from the pass plan beca.u,;e local residents did not adhere to the original plan to sign up for pa.'S"S in the two weE>ks establishPd for that purpose. Citizens ar<'· .';till signing up for them, and that takes additional clerical wc·rk. Also, additional cashiers ere ne<>ded at the swimming pool to har(lle the transactions. Often. nonGreenbelters arP admitted fi r~t. since it takes a longer time to process passes and money •for local pat.rons.
McDonald announced th.a.t th·~ swimming pool reee!ved U~ ln revenue for the month of J'Ulne. Of thf8 amount. only $959 cam"! from local patrons. Over 112.000 is needed to run the pool thls yEo.a.r. McDonald wa..s hwrtruoted to sub· mit a break-down of the co:.t at the "'pass" operation at the next regular city council meeting.

{Terms of the Housing 4~rporation'~: contract to pur.cbase Greenbelt gave tenants a year''g leases from the date of that ·~·:>ntract, September firBt af 1952. While title did not pass till .Tan~3.ry first, 195~, those occupying houses that have been sold to GVHC members must make way for the purchasers to move in beginning September first of this year. Many GVHC purchasers arc, of c..:>urse, already occupying the unllts they bought, having kept the houses they alrco.dy occupied or ha.ving moved in the moontlm•~ when .thPir houses became vacant.)
Tax Motion Tablcdt A motion to pay taxes due the
City of Greenbelt; on the vacant and undeveloped land wa:g tabled until the amount ai ·the assessment is learned. Portiom1 of the land arc now under deve-lopment by several resident. groups, and the board questioned wh~~ther to pay the taxes directly and collect from • the subsidiaries, or to pay a £"hare and let the subsidiaries pay <lirPct.ly.
'l'hc ~self-hel.P'' painting program for the exterior trim on frame dwellings has br.·gun, with scraping and puttying to occupy the sd'f-helpers until the paint arrives. The board discussed a method of providing paint to members under an agreement :to complete the work within a ~1peeified
time, failing which they should either return the paint or pay for the por-tion usoo. It was pointed out that the loan of equipment, such as ladder~1, on a short-tern1 basis would make it nece~:ary for the eJt.terior repainting to be completed '{uickly:. lRcpainting th.e trim on the brick houses a.lso was suggcl>ted as a po.c;sible e>el'f-help proj~t.

CAMP AiliHURMONT NORMA~ F:READER. It's
Pr~ncc
Scouts.
"Off to Camp" •for Geor~es County
the Girl
For a five-weE·k period beginning July 16, some 250 girls will be· at Camp Misty :Uount in the Cat-?ctin Mountains near Thur-mont, M<i.
The: camp is su.ffed by 26 adults, tra:in~ in their individual fields and 6 Program A:.ds who help with the program whenever needed. Included in the staff is a registered nu .. se, waterfront director, trained by the Americar. Red Cross, and an experienced food manager. A doctor is on 24-hout· call.
~ile there the girls will enjoy hiking, swimmir.g, cooking over open fires, nature, handicrafts and the joy of sing·ing around the campfire.
V~sitors Sundays at camp are July 26 and Augllst 9 from 2 to IS p.m. Anyone interested in camping- 'for girls will be welcome to drive up and see the camp in full swing on these ·1atee.
Camping · is s·Kh a wonderful experience that it is regretable that Prince Georges County Girl Scouts do not ha,e their own camp where more girls could be accommodated.
With the ever increasing growth of Prince Georges County and the increasing numl:.er of Girl Scout troops, each year more and more girls are disappointed because there is r.ot roor.:1 enough in camp to accommodate all the girls who want to go. If Prince Georges County had thdr own camp it cquld run 'for a longer period of time and all girls who wanted to enjoy camping could be accommodated.
Camp Misty Mount is under the direction of the National Park Service, and since it must be shared with the Washington County Girl Scouts, it is only available for five weeks. A new Pioneer unit to accommodate eight older, more experienced campers was added last year but since regulations must be met it is not possible to enlarge the ca.rr~p any further_
Really in The Swim A swimming pool pass for the
Greenbelt Coop~rator was voted by the · city council last Monday night to facilitate news coverage.
The council stipulated that only one person may use the pass at any one time.
my husband is training tc read like a flash in a speed-r·~adi:ng course he attends at his job. The resentment I always felt when he'd be ready to turn the page we'd started to~ether while I was still plodding along half-way up, has been aggravated by his recent claim to a reading time of seven hundred words a minute. There iH no loss of comprehension, presumably. In general, my bushand'~ quite pleased with this enhanced skill, but is rueful to think how it cuts down on time spent on his favorite reading matter, the Sunday Comics. He goes through them all too quickly. 'l'hey're hardly a.ny 'ft::n any more. LITTER HAS ALWAYS Bl!:E~ A PROBLEM HERE. No measures authorities take to corre<:t this can wholly succeed withoat: cooperation from every cit.izen in the instruction neatness they give their children - and the e·~tampl<' they set them by their own performance. Citizens of Greenbelt would be more inspired toward neatness out side their ovn1 homes, however, if the city could, or would: 1) Cover all ar~f'!: with convenient, covered trash cans. 2) Manage it so that garbag·e and trash collectors don't leave stuff strewn in their wake because of carelessness or the use e1.r m;•t!rflowing or broken baskets. 3) Get after broken glass along paths, in underpasses, and playgrounds. This is definitely a menace!
WE HAD A BIG .TOKE .AT OUR SIX-YEAR-OLD'S expem-e the other night, and he laughed with ·r1s. Then he looked shrunefaced. and pleaded, ''Don't put that in your column, mommy." 1 promi.;;ed him I wouldn't. m LOOKING THROUGH his 'lifelime collection of books and paper,:; ~,ince our move, my husband came across a small volume of La.:E'ontaine's ONE HUNDRED :F'ABt:..ES left over from undergraduate day;; They are a French poetry versiou of Aeson's fables. H~ rem ?mh•cre<l o::nough - French to recognize the one about the Fox and the Crow (Le Corbeau et le Renard) wh~rein the fox swindles the crow ot:rt of a piece of cht.ese it's holding i!i it5 beak by flattering it into ·:hinking it has a be'autiful !linging voiee. IN HUMAN RELA.TIO~SHIPS opposites may attra~t. but they don't stick together.
