Long Efforts to Start ‘School’ Told
Public “fear of the un
known is the one large ob
stacle blocking the path of a
young psychologist who for
the last five years has been
trying to start a dormitory
school for 20 emotionally dis
turbed boys at Fairland.
Dr. F. William Dinwiddie, 32.
former director of the children’s
unit at Spring Grove State
Hospital. Catonsville, continued
his uphill fight for his school
last week in a public hearing be
fore the Montgomery County
Board of Appeals.
He needs a special zoning ex
ception to operate the school on
residential land fronting Robey
rd., Fairland. The Board took his
case under advisement and will
rule later.
If successful. Dr. Dinwiddie's
school would be called "Edge
mead.” But the clinical psycol
ogist has been opposed by neigh
borhood residents who. Dr. Din
widdie said, are fearful his stu
dents would be a menace.
You Can Have TB
And Not Feel Sick
Dave was a brawny six-footer
with shoulders so broad you
wondered how he got through
an ordinary door. For the three
years he’d been running a drill
press In a metalworking factory
he hadn’t been sick a single day.
Then a piece of iron pipe
rolled off a passing dolly and
whacked him across the foot.
The foreman set him to First
Aid, although after his first
yelp Dave swore it wasn’t any
thing but a bruise. First Aid
poked him a bit and sent him
around to the nearby hospital
for an X-ray.
Dave was wrong. He’S frac
tured a bone in his instep and
he was in the hospital for a
week. While he was there, he
got a chest X-ray—routine at
that hospital for all admissions.
The X-ray showed that Dave
had TB.
He took a lot of convincing.
Hadn’t been away from work a
day in three years. Strong as an
ox. "Look at these muscles,
Doc.” But Dave had TB all right,
muscles or no muscles. He fi
nally believed the doctor. He
went to a TB hospital and
stayed there for the six months
it took before he was well
enough to get home again to
continue treatment there. But
all through he was a sadly
puzzled man. Because at no
time had Dave felt sick.
The fact is. you can have tu
berculosis without feeling sick
at all. It doesn’t matter how
big you are or how strong you
State Troopers 9 Life
(Continued from Page B 8)
33, says that Montgomery County is the most expen
sive one for a trooper in all Maryland. For this rea
son, some of the five men who live at the barracks
cook a few of their meals to cut the cost of living.
They have a television set and radios to while
away the time at the outpost, but little else to occupy
their scant spare time.
"About the main difference
between Army life and ours Is
that you can quit if you like,”
commented Corpl. Knight. But,
surprisingly few troopers quit.
Once they have gone through
State Police School’s rigorous
six months of 16-hour days, the
die seems to be permanently
cast.
Advance through the ranks
is not what one could call mete
oric. Knight has achieved two
stripes after 12 years while
Sergt. Cavanagh has 14 years
behind him. Competition is
keen among the state wide force
of 533 men.
The average age of the men
stationed at the Rockville out
post appears to be in the mid
20's. Most impressive feature
of all of them is their neatness
and politeness.
Corpl. Knight said that all
troopers undergo intensive
training in school on the im
portance of politeness to the
public.
When a trooper stops a car
on the highway, for instance,
his first words to the driver
are, "I am trooper Joe Doaks.
I stopped you for such and
such. May I see your license
and registration, please." Also,
each trooper wears a name
plate on his right tunio pocket
flap.
Troopers also are taught how
to protect themselves from the

As proposed. Edgemeade
would offer living quarters and
classes to boys in the first
through eighth grades. These
boys would first be closely
screened by a board of admis
sions consisting of Dr. Dinwid
die, Dr. Randolph Frank, a psy
chiatrist, and Dr. Thomas Chris
tensen, a pediatrician.
Only boys referred by the
school boards of Montgomery
and Prince George counties, and
boys referred by private psy
chitarists, would be eligible, Dr.
Dinwiddie said. Student fees of
$230 a month would be paid into
a non-profit organization al
ready chartered. The money
would pay for psychotherapy,
schooling, and other institu
tional care.
Students at Edgemeade would
come from broken homes, chil
dren with personal problems too
deep to mix with regular school
ing.

look. You can still have TB.
Dave’s TB was detected early.
But it was only through a lucky
accident Smart people have
themselves tested for TB regu
larly by means of a tuberculin
test or a chest X-ray, without
waiting to be walloped by an
iron pipe. With TB. it’s the only
way to be sure. This column is
