Picklepuss Does It Again Picklepuss, the kitten who lives
with the Laster family at 3 Lakeside when he isn't sitting in trees, has topped his previous record. A few weeks ngo the kitten cnsconced itself on a high tree in the Laster yard for four days until brought down by 16-year-old Bobby Shumaker. Last week it climbed a different trN' in the yard and sat there apparently unconcerned for nine days until lured down by a can of tuna fish. Othcr cat owners in the community are reported to be concerned that Picklepuss may be starting a fad among local cats.

Mayor Issues Statement On Centerway Traffic
ThP foltlliwing statement has been issuPd 'to ''!;he N<•ws Ht•view by Mayor Fr~lllcis White conc<'l'ning the council's actions on Ccnt!'rway Traffic.
"Some• question may exist in th<' minds of the citizens as to the action taken by th,, City Council regarding this subject. There is evidr·ncc <via last wt•el<'s "Letters to ThP Editor" in tlw N<ws He,·ir•w) that even " member of the City's Advisory Plnnning Board is confus£'d.
"'I1w City Council is presently studying thP total network of roads around tlw Cent~r and within the parking lots in order that the best solution to a numbcr of traffic congestion problems may be put into effect.
"As a part of this "study", the Council has established a Ldt Turn into the CO-OP parking lot for a period of 60 days. This allows an opportunity to factually study another facet of the traffic pattern within the Centcr.
"At the present time, the Council has a report from the APE. a request from thP Greenbelt Business Men's Association. expressions f~om many citizens and a study and recommendation by Greenhorne and O'Mara, Planning Engineers hired by the City. The Greenhorne & O'Mara report which was sent to the APE, and later discussed at a joint meeting, recommends reversing the direction of traffic on Centerway and this recommendation is . exactly the oppoalta .ot. a now two· year old recommendation of the Board. It Is apparent that the next step for the Council will be to sift down these many expressions of opinion and take the action of either endorsing the present plan or reversing it.
"Upon receipt of information on the finn! parking lot design and the effect of the Left-Turn, added to present dnfa on hand, the subject of the total Centerway and parking lot traffic plan would normally become an Agenda item. When the study is complet£'d, the subject will lw thoroughly discussed."

AN INDEPENDENT NEWSPAPER_ GREENBELT, MARYLAND
The Police Blotter A one pound, shaker type can of
highly poisonous sodium fluoride was found in the hands of a \'l'ry young child who was shaking it out in a section of the woods near Laur£'1 Hill Road about 20 fc<'t from the playground of the North End School. The child was bathed immPdiatl'ly and taken to a doctor to chccl< for possible poisonous pffects.
Sodium F'luoridP is a dangerous poison and less than one teaspoonful in the stomach would prm·e fatal. Just inhaling the fumes would be dangerous. Any amount on the skin or in cuts or scratehes may have S<'rious effects.
Greenbelt Police pickPd up four youths at th£' lake on Thursday rvPning after they received a complaint of a disordPr!y party going on. The youths were blowing a bugle which could be b£'ard all over lown. The boys. university students, were released aftt•r cll'aning up the beer cans with which they had littered the area.
There were three reports of vandalism to cars last week. One owner reported the theft of a sleeping bag and another reported the taillights stolen. The third report was that the wires had been pulled loose from under the hood. A small child was seen running away from the car.
A citizen complained of three juveniles acting in· a ·disorderly manner at the Center Sunday evening. Police brought the youths to their office and released them tQ t))ejr __ ~llit!Nr •
Many reports are received by police about youngsters picking up bicycles not belonging to them and riding off and then leaving them elsewhere. Acting Police Chief Bud Zoellner advises thnt this is an act which can be considered as stealing. Many youngsters arc apprehended on this complaint and, b,esides a reprimand by police, the youths may have their names placed on Juvenile Files. Repent£'d acts can mean that the child wil be taken to Hyattsvllle or Seat I'!Pasant and held in custody until their parents' arrival.
Chief Zoelhwr also stated that bicycle n·gistration will take plac<' <'Very Saturday from 10 ll.lll. to 12 noon nt tlw I~'irPhow.;p until fur

The first inaccuracy eOIH't>nwd the Planning Board's rqlOrt to Council recommending that the Maryland-National Capital Park and Planning Commission defer action on all pending zone applications until such time as the preliminary master plan was completed. Councll received this report but did not act upon it. Therefore, the city has not made a recommendation to the Park and Planning Commission on this matter. Incidentally, further investigatiorl conducted since the last Council meeting indicates that a similar request made by College Park has been denied, that the preliminary master plan expected this spring will probabv not be completed until late thi; year, and that to defer action on zoning upplica tions would be inegal if done by the Park and Planning Commission.

STRAW MEN, RED HERRING To the Editor:
CENTERW AY TRAFFIC To the Editor:
I've been through some dirty campaigns in Greenbelt in my day but we seem to be getting all thl' worst features thrown into crw this time. Instead of hearing rational responses about the vengeful News Review rental hassle land the disgraceful disregard of 650 petition signers l, the puerile "patronage refund" suggestion lsurely six bits won't buy any "thinking man's'' vote? l, and the dangerous raiding of the reserves I sec straw mPn and smell retl herring.

The straw ml'n ld,'ad issupsl are being proppPd up to obstruct the \'il'\\' and the rl'd herring I re.llly rippl arc bPing dragger! out in the hope of CO\'l'ring certain malodorous actions of a certain faction of the GHI board. E\·en use of race, religion. and creed is I i'ting a new peak lor gutter, as the rase must surely be): lt can n" no mere coincidence that this usc is reported from so many quarters.
Just as disturbing is the so-called concern with dficiency of Inanagcm-.:·nt :md !n<1i:1tt>nnnrr \':hich npparPn~ly do ~s.-.'t f'XlrPd

One could wish they had something better to occupy their time so we could get on with the Important business of running the corporation - efficiently.
tunity to speak when seveml Centel'\vay ordinances were up for second reading at the April 1 meeting of City Council, I must use other means to bring out in public what Greenbelt citizens have a right to know. In connection with this, some background on the Advisory Planning Board seems pertinent.
The Board's Rt•port to Council No. 26 ·points out that "Centerway parking and traffic circula-tion has iiccupi•'d more of the Planning Board's time and at-tention than any other single itt•m sincp the Board's inception." Hundn•ds of man hours have bPen spent by Board and Committee mt•mbers in research, analysis, and evaluation of the many facets of traffic circulation on Centerway. Further, traffic engineers of the AAA, Prince Georges County government, Maryland - National Capital Park and Planning Commission, and U. S. Bureau of Public Roads have been consultPd at one time or another to assist the Board in it& deliberations.
As a mPmber of the Planning Board, and as chairman of all thrr~P rommittt'rs whieh hnvc l\'orkPrl with Centerway during the J'ast 2',. yPars. I am quit" familiar with thP advantages arHI liis~Hi\'antages of till' many proposals put forward. All havt• bt'Pil ••valuated for saft'ly, parl<ing facilities provided, and convenienrP for th<' greatl'st number of P<'ople.
Many of the findings in Report No. 26 <accepted by Council prior to passage of the Centerway ordinances on April 1) have a dirt•ct bearing on Centerway tmtfic !lows; finding~ 12 through 15 arc especially pertinent. Rl'port No. 26, llke all othPr rl'ports Pfl'Sl'nted to Council by thP Board, may be seen at till' City Officps by any resident of thp community.
Tht• two reasons gi,·en by Council for altt•ring thP prrsP;lt Ct•n-tt>rway nrrangPrnPnt wrrP t) ttw prPSI'Ht arrangPtnPnt has hurt bw~int'ss in ttw Crntt>r; and 2) Uw prPsrnt nrrangf'mrnt is inconvrniPnt. l.Rl's Pxamine both points.
ThP sPcond concernpd thP rl'porting on the proposed summer day c:.mp progrnm. Here again, Council 'did not give approval and. in fact. took no action although indivi,Jual mt•mbPrs of Council m:1y havP Pxpressl'd some mensurr of approval towards the program. Since the program as proposed requires no outlay of city funds Council approval is not required and was not necessary. During the discussion it was suggested by some of the members of Council that I discuss this proposed program with the Recreation Advisory Board before putting it into effect. This I will do and havP arranged a meeting with that Board for this week.

Political expediency and deference to businessmen's pressures have taken a normal and favomble growth pattern and accelerated it into a helter skelter rezoning and commercial exploitation which is little short of scandalous. The Marybnd-National Capitol Park and Planning Commission, on the losing end of so many recent rezoning problems, received a final kick in the pants from the County Commissioners and the Prince Georges County delegation during the last session in Annapolis, so that the door to exploitation has opened even wider.
In answer to the politicians who think in terms of this sort of "progress" and who laud this "incrpased tax base", I can only suggest that they relocate to downtown Washington, Baltimore or Brooklyn, there to join others of their ilk who have deprived their neighbor's children of benefits that will never be compensable in terms of increased rewnuc and increased taxes.
As to those of us who still have some of the ever diminishing belt of grl'Pn about us, and who want to keep it therl', it seems th~t WP hnvl1 no alternative but to liSP our votPs to protPet what rPmnins of thP town's image.

It was terribly sud, therefore, to read the unscrupulous attack launched ag'llinst him last week by B. J. Bordenet and Joe Comproni. This type of personal attack against Individuals Is a vivid illustration of the kind of tactics which should not be used in GHI.

To tht• Editor: < >ur city is proud of thP under
i''""'' that allow safe passage of pedestrians under Crescent Hoad ;111d Edmonston Road.
But now two much morc'dangerous superhighways !Kenilworth and Beltway) are about to cut off Greenbelt including Park belt, Woodland Hills, Lakewood, Lakeside, Lakecrest and Boxwood from "the other half" consisting of Springhill Lake and Beltway Plaza. Children and persons on foot or on bicycles will not be able to cross from Greenbelt Lake Park to Indian Spring or from anywhere in our side of town to the Junior High School or anywhere on the new side of town. People will not be able to pass from one part of our city to the othl'r leach with its own shopping center, lake, sport fields and other attractions) except in an automobile and then only by going to Greenbelt Raod, the single connecting thoroughfare.
It may br all right to ha\'t· two self-contained neighborhoods but the idm of absolutely scaling tiH'm off from each other while they still constitute parts of the samr' city is unthinkablt'. Besides. children, and any adults who still lil<c to wnlk, will nhvays want to SC'c whats on the other side and who !mows? some may have friends over there. Parents may forbid, but some child is going to get run over trying to cross two dual highways.
I know it's lal<> but gentleml'n, is it too late to provide undl'l'passes for safety and for nPighborliness?

Why You Should Support The Common Sense Ticket .,....., For the first time in the ten-year history
of GHI, dissension on the Board of Directors has arisen as a result of the organization of a group of members of the Board into a tightly organized faction. The activities of this tightly-knit political faction have prevent~ ed the Board from serving the membership of GHI in a constructive manner which the
I the membership has a right to expect.
In the past, there have been differences of opinion among Board members. These differences were overcome bv frank discussion and 1>:-· the willingness of mPTnbers of the Board to an~ept the decision of the majurit.1·. .\lt•mbers of tlw Board respected one another and did not rush to accuse those with whom they diffp•·ed of having evil moti1·es.
lndividu;il action now is apt to pmve inpffl•ctive against the political faction which is promoting dissension. It is therpfon' necl'ssary for· the membership to rally together and through concerted effort to elect candidates who stand for orderly development of GHI and who will r<>store tlw GHI Board as an effective instrument of the membership.
We believe that the election of Frank Lastner, Harry Zubkoff, Hans Jorgensen, Charles Schwan and John O'Reilly on May 15 and 16 will provide us, once again, with additional members on the Board of Directors who com-
mand the respect of the membership and of each other. These candidates recognize that honest differences of opinion are bound to arise and they are mature enough to be able to disagree without being disagreeable. Foremost. these candidates recognize that the duty of all members of the Board is to work for the strengthening of GHI, the preservation a'ld enhancement of the memberships' investment and the maintenance of financial integrit.l·.
For tht•sp rcaSllllS the membership of GHI N is offered candidates in whom they can have l'onfidl'nu• and a program which, Wt' believ(', :J will hPip to aecornpli~h till' goals we have ll

Each month, as the principal payments are made on the mortgage, the presently large equity which each mcmbPr has in his home increases. About 20% of the houses are resold each year and it is bl'coming increasingly difficult for sellers to rPcovN thPir large oquitics because few buyers have sullicicnt cash to pay for such equitiPS.

Before this visit, Lori bad been very quiet when we got to the hospital. But this time, she did not feel so strange and she went around shaking hands and telling everyone her name. On occasion she even asked the women how they felt. She's getting real good at it. She extended her hand to one woman who took it and smiled. I found out later that this is one of the women wbo has not been too receptive to our visits. But she did accept Lori's gesture of friendship. Later she accepted refreshments and set'med to be responding a bit more. Maybe, just maybe, Lori broke through the barrier with her childish sincerity where we could not.
We brought with us a little gift for each of the patients. A lot ot work went into the making or these gifts. What started out as bars of Sweetheart soap In the little boxes came out looking like gaily decorated Easter eggs nesting In gr<'<'n grass. Each cake of soap was hand painted and had had some sort of Easter sticker on it. Many thanks to Ruth Wevel. Caroil' Lewis, and Phoebe Waldman who did the art work.
