CITY TO INTERVENE fN ZONING CASE

by Om.rle8 T. McDonald Smith, who joined the meeting

following the city council meeting, told an 'estimated 300 pel'liOM that the city would tile a "petltlon to intervene" with the Circuit Court.

County Com.mlsaloner GladJlJ Spellman, who baa conRitently op­posed the high-rise 2101liJ1&', DOtecl that only two of the DIDe partiM to the orlglnal p.,_tlnp -properly served With notJceB of .tbe appeal Thill, she IIBid, might Pro-

In a record short meeting last Monday ndght, city council voted to instruct the city solicitor to file a "petition to intervene in the proceeding" In the matter of the circuit court decl.!llon to permit 11.·

partment zoning on the Jaeger tract In Greenbelt Park. It was felt that the city has the right to submit this petition as an aggrteved party on the grounds .that through an error the city was not notified to be present at the court hee.rlng.

This meana that - eventually­the bJ.gh-rlae apartment zoning for the Jaeger tract may be nuiJitl.ed.

vide opp(,n.enbl of the h!gh·rim apartment. a chance to appeal tbe decision of Circuit Cowt Judp William B. Bowie. The petition, to be 1lled llimul­

taneoUBiy with 8 petition for an extension of time, is based on the fact that ·the City of Greenbelt, as a party to the proceedings, was not notified of the appeal by the Coun· ty Commlsisoners through an error.

<Jounty Admitll Error

This was only a hope, until JlaQw Smith announced that that wu ex­actly the action tlbat tbe G~ City Council had decided to tab.

CollllnisBioner Spellman IIBid Much of the council's regular agenda was postponed until a spe­cial meeting set for Monday, Feb­ruary 10, so that council members could attend the public meeting on the question sponsored by the Greenbelt Civic Assoo!ation. La.te In that meeting Mayor Edgar Smith Informed the audience of its action.

It was Mayor Smith, working with City Manager James Giese, who discovered on Monday after­noon that the Maryland Rules ot' Procedures, in effect, required the county commissioners to notify the city of the court hearing since the city had been a party to the pro- . ceeding. As the result of an error, the city was not notified of the court hearing so that city oflicials did not have the oppol'tunity to substantiate their previous state­ments and undergo interrogation by the court.

Tuesday morning, the dacy after the protest meeting, County At­torney Robert· Mathias acknowl­edged an error had been made. Ma­thias told the County Commissioners that he was advised for the first time at ·the protest meeting that certain parties who appeared at the original hearing had not received notice of the appeal. As a re­sult of his recommendation, the missioner Robert F. Sutphin and was passed by a 4-0 vote with Chair­man Frank Lastner ab.staining.

there were four prlmary~·reaaon.s for appealing Judge Bowiii's de­claiollll:

(1) In her opinion, there wu substantial evidence submitted to support the original dec18ion· JJy the County CommisBioilers, · and therefore the Circuit Court had no baaia for suhstltutlng Its OWD oplnioll-

(2) The Greenbelt Regional Park "was aet up for all people in the. county'' and tberelore, in her opin­ion, the Circuit Ooul't em!Cl by holding that pen101111 Uving more than three miles away from the Park have no right to be heald. The County Cornmlasioners, at

-Smith's request, went beyond Its (3) She could not accept the opin-ion of the Circuit · e»urt that cJtf­zens must 111'111: submit fonnal proof of their standing before tbey ma.y be heard on a zoning plan.

LATE BULLETIN;

Other Business Bids were opened for the sale of

the two city buses. The sole bidder offered $132.00 for both buses. It was referred to th-., city manager for his study and recommendations.

The January 7 Circuit Court decision granting high r!ae zon­ing for the Jaegar Tract was suspended Wednesday by Prince Georges Circuit Judge W!lllam B. Bowie, who made the ruling. Judge Bowie ordered a new. be set at the req.eust of the City of Greenbelt.

'I'he Personnel Advisory Board submitted its recommendations on the position of a full-time Adminis­trative Aide, at a salary grade of GC-6. The recommendations were accepted and the amended Classi­fication Plan to provide for the position was accepted and approved by the city council). Council also pro­vided funds to pay the $~,096 annual salary for the Administrative Aide in a resolution to tranBfer funds within departments. Arrangements have boen made to employ the pre­sent, part-time assistant, ~onald

M. Dick, in the position.

Mayor Smith Tells What Happens Next

Mayor Ed Smith explained to the Nf'W" IWvlf'W the various murses of action that mny now tnk<' pinrt' as the result of the petition to intervene in th<' pro­CN'<iinr: fil<'d by the city con­Cf'rning the zoning of the Jae­g;<•r tract. If this petition is <iPni<'<l, <which is not nnticlpa­fPd sin<X' ~he county commis­sionNe nnd roun.ty attorney hnve ngr<'<'<i to arglll' for the cityl. tiw city rnn stili apl><'nl thai d<'­dsion to thp rourt of npJ-...:•niR

If the IWtiUon to intervene iR granl<'d by the cireuit court, the eit.y of Or<'enbolt thm would be allowt\d to prM<'nt its CILS<' be­fore U1e cir<:ult court on why the high-rise npartlnent zoning for tiw Jn<"ger tract should be den­led.

Upon hearing this evidt>nro, the circuit court will eithpr ls­~ue a ruling realflmtlin:g JudgP Bowie's previous decision or a n!"W ruling which wlll •uphold the prcvloUD action of the coun­ty comrnlnalonera denying th" zoning request. FIMUy, If thP drcult court l'tl<llftrtrul Judgro 11ow!e's previous tieclsfon, the dty ran thf'n t.R.kc th<' Crul<' to the court ol npJl('als. Slnre n.ll u""'" """'N'dlngs could N>Qllil"f>

A clerical error which denied the city and others an opportun­ity tq present testimony in op­position to the zoning to the circuit court in January was ap­parently the responsibility of the County Commissioners - hence their readiness to assist the city in its efforts to intervene.

The County Commissioners helped pave the way for the city of Greenbelt to "<'arry the ball" on the Jaegar CllSe through .1

motion to grant the city of Green­belt the right to Intervene in the case. '

The Commissioners, still split 2-2 with Lastner abstaining, had not changed their minds on the question of appeal Tuesday and would not unless new evidence wPre produced, according to Commissioner Robert F. Sutphin.

, W She did not believe that any Commissioner's bands are tied by the fact that whl:le, sitting as a member of the District Council, he took no part in the original re­i,iiiting- aeclsion wllfch · 1s to be appealed. "If there Is a que8tion of whether a commissioner ma.y vote in such a situation," she said, "let him vote so the matter will come before the court for clarification."

Commissioner Spellman's fourth point referred to the refiiiSal of Commissioner Fronk J. I...w!tner, chairman of the County Boord, to vote on a proposal that the com­missioners appeal Judge Bowie's decision to the Court of Appeals.

Lastner Replies La.•tncr did not attend last

night's meeting. He sent a letter to .B. J. Fritz, president of the flr<'<'nbelt Civic Association saying that a long-standing appointment required his presence In Baltimore.

Lastner also !lent a prepared statl'mPnt, which Fritz also read, saying he "wanted the record to show dearly that I am not legally a bl<' to vot<'" on the proposal to appml Judgf' Bowie's decision.

"Caligula" To Be Presented Imaginary Playmates OK "C·!Iigula", called a tragedy of

intellig~nce by its author Albert Camus. will be presented by The Am<'rican University Players ll'eb. 13-15 and Feb. 19-22 at 8:30 p.m. in Clendenen Theatre on the Uni­versity's uptown c<tmpus. Reser­vations may be made at the AU box office or by calling 244-6333.

"Imaginary companions are nor­mal for preschool-age children and may serve a good purpose," says a University of Maryland spo<cial­ist.

Mrs. Jeanne Mochn, Extension family life specialist. notes that the world Is new and strange for a small child. He needs time to team the difference between real and imagined things. New Foods Are

Due In Future The consumer Is still king - or

queen - in the supermarket as the growing population and research stimulates more and better food8 at lower eosts, imaginatively pro­cessed and packaged.

"When a child calls a row of blocks his train, bakes and eats mud pies, and plays with dolls as real babies," advises Mrs. Moehn, "he is gaining, through ilnagina­tion, further ability to deal with re­ality. Sometimes his imagination helps rid himself of Irritability."

A child's imaginary playmate who must have a chair at the table. Tears are shed when a parent sits in the chair Where "Bobo" is sit­ting. And the child may account for his behavior by stating, "Bo­bo told me to do it."

That's the WOrd from Mrs. Ju­dith Phell, food and nutrition spe­cialist, University of Maryland, who recently attended the National Agriculture Outlook Conference In W8Bhlngton, D. C. may be Included in everything he

does. Mrs. Moehn cites "Bobo," "About 55 mUllan more Ameri­cans In 1980 will be consuming an average of 1,400 pounds of food a year," says Mrs. Pheil. "Then the U. S. population will be 2415 mil­lion, compared with 190 million to-day." .

Playmates like "Bobo" or ani­mals and birds that talk may last a few weeks or severs! months. Both boys and girls, keenly intel­ligent children and sociable young­sters may have them.

Already people are eating mor" meats and poultry products, pro­cessed fruits and vegetables and 10rne dairy products than 50 years ago. The shift Is away from fresh fruits and vegetables and cereals.

"Parents who play up to these imaginary companions by coaxing a child to eat or by laughingly blaming the 'playmate' for a child's forgetfulness may make the com­pton too real," wams Mrs. Moehn. "The child may have trouble dis­tinguishing between real and im­aginary things."

"Convenience foods will contin­ue to be popular as more women work, incomes and educational lev­els rise, and more nutritional knowledge evolves," notes the (;o.

operative Extension Service spe­cialist.

Food studies reveal that though most convenience foods cost more than home-prepared Items, the number of less-expensive conveni­ence foods that homemakers buy in volume actually reduces the total outlay of food.

"In fact, we spend only 19 per­cent of our income for food now compared with 23 percent. 10 years ago and 33 percent today in most Ji;uropean countries," she says.

Looking at new food packaging and processing development, con­IUJilers can choose between easy-to-open metla cans ant im­proved glass, plastic and paper containers. Mrs. Pheil reports that one U. S. Department of Agricul­ture <USDA> laboratory Is work­Ing with edible packaging.

New methods of dehydration and dehydro-freezlng, foam-mat and vacuum puff drying are being ex­plored. As the number of frozen and dehydrated foods grows, super­markets must provide more freez­er and shelf space to display them.

One of the products now being marketed is an aluminum squeeze food tube fitted with a hollow-han­dled plastic spoon that's a boon to feeding Infants or bedridden pa­tients.

However, it Is unwise to treat these companions as ridiculous fancy and punish children for them. Watching a child's imaginative play often gives insight into emo­tional prbblemms.

"Gradually children learn to care more for living companions because they gain greater satisfaction from them," says Mrs. Moehn. "Norm­ally, children will throw aside their make-believe ideas by de­grees."

Winter Increases Danger of Carbon Monoxide Poisoning

Do you drive around in your auto on cold winter days with all win­dows and vents tightly closed?

Do you sometimes warm up the car engine in your garage without first opening the garage door?

Do you neglect a checkup of ex­haust and manifold on your car unless something starts rattling or falls off?

If your answer to any of these questions is "Yes" - you are flirt­ing with cardon monoxide poison­ing.

Carbon monoxide Is an odorless, colorless, tasteless gas that comes from your auto exhause. In the open air it usually is disipated with­out harm to anyone. But in an en­closed space it can be deadly.

Each winter brings reports of death from carbon monoxide poi­soning. The g as can seep up through the floor boards from 'a leaky <'Xhaust. The victim be­comes drowsy nnd then "falls a­sleep." It takes only a short time for an engine running In a closed ga­rage to fill the building with doadiy gas.

Foods being developed through USDA research Include jellied ap­plesauce similar to cranberry sauce .. Cold, It's good especially with pork; and warmed it turns to li­quid to be poured Into a food mold over fruit, berries, vegetables, nuts or raisins.

A non-setting raisin paste may soon join fig paste as a filling In n.ewtollJI and other bakery prod­ucts. Raisins and other fruits art• undergoing new artificial drying methods known as DBD ·- dry­blanch-dry - to preserve llavor and color. And poe!lbilities for preserving more bakery goods are mounting steadily.

No one knows how many auto ac­cidents are caused by motorists whose reaction time Is somewhat slowed by' a small seepage of car­bon monoxide into a closrd auto. It your exhaust and manifold are in good shape and fitted tight, you likely are sare. But It's even safer to leavr a rear window open a crack.
