Delegate is denied role in suit ROCKVILLE (AP)- Montgomery County Circuit Court judge has denied outgoing Del. Robin Ficker's request to be named as an intervener in a complex case involving long-distance charges levied by the Chesapeake and Potomac Telephone Co. However, Judge Philip Fairbanks yesterday permitted Ficker's clients, Richard Rowe of Gaithersburg and Chester Roy Julian of Montgomery Village, to be parties to the suit. Ficker, a Montgomery County Republican, said he also filed a notice of appeal to have the case heard by the Maryland Court of Special Appeals. Ficker said he wasn't sure when the appeals court will act on the request, but expects that it will do so in the near future.

The action stems from a county charter amendment sponsored by Ficker and approved by county voters Nov. 2. The amendment would have barred the Montgomery County government from buying telephone services from unless both Gaithersburg and Montgomery Village were included in the local calling area. That would have resulted in substantial savings for upcounty telephone customers, Ficker said. The amendment would have gone into effect Dec.

2, but obtained an injunction from Circuit Judge Rosalyn Bell. The utility claimed that it would be illegal to provide customers with the requested rates without approval of the Maryland Public Service Commission and that the move would cost about $3 million for new wiring and equipment. While Ficker tries to get the injunction overturned, the present telephone system and rate structure remain in effect. Ficker said the injunction came about as a result of collusion between Montgomery County Executive Charles Gilchrist, the Democratic-controlled County Council, and Bell, who ran on the Democratic ticket.

JOBS, From D1 Ralph Abrams, a Beecham district supervisor, said most students asked about long-range chances for growth in the Pittsburgh-based company. "They're not just looking for a pay check; they're looking for a career," Abrams said, as loudspeakers blared a request that interviewers cut lines by limiting each interview to 10 minutes.

Hecht's had jobs for 55 to 60 management trainees. Cook, of Towson, was just one in a line of about 50 students hoping to land one of the department store's a slots. She will graduate from Towson State next week with a double concentration in business marketing and management. Like all but one classmate she knows in her major, she has no job. "That's why there are so many people here today," Cook said.

"I think people A are really scared about being unemployed." $75,000 raised BENTON, From D1 Benton's letter, dated Dec. 20 and personalized with the recipient's name, states that $200,000 has been spent so far for the station, and that an architect and engineer-consultant have been hired. "It has been my privilege to witness and be a part of the dramatic physical redevelopment that has taken place in our city and the Baltimore metropolitan area during the last decade," Benton wrote. "It is now my privilege to be associated with a development that could have a significant impact upon the moral values of the people of the metropolitan area." Benton's letter also stated that Whiting-Turner Contracting a firm which does a lot of business with the city, had been selected as contractor for construction of the broadcast facility. Yesterday, however, Benton said that a final choice had not been made on who will do the construction.

"We have had discussions," Benton said. "The board has not taken action Dressed in a white woolen suit with a gray silk shirt and matching handbag and shoes, the senior had spent the night before psyching herself up for the approaching interview. "I've got to say all positive things and not be negative, 'cause I really, really want this job," Cook said. A friend told her Hecht's offered good chances for advancement in its corporate hierarchy, where Cook hopes eventually to be a buyer. But Hecht's is only Cook's first stop on a transcontinental job search that will take her to Los Angeles in two weeks, and then on to Atlanta, where another friend told her opportunities were plentiful.

Standing before her in line was Charles Kidron, 24, who came from Reading, to look for jobs in security. A 1979 graduate with a degree in criminal justice from Alvernia College, Kidron left the Air Force two weeks ago. He had worked underground for three years as a launch control officer on a Minuteman missile system in North Dakota. "It's surprising, the boredom that mounts in an underground capsule," said Kidron, who sported a blue three suit. He said he also would look for work in security systems for nuclear power plants, and perhaps Atlantic City casinos.

But wherever he looks, he knows he will need the same qualities to land a job and a good personality." A young woman stood in line in front of him, next up for an interview. She was eavesdropping on the fellow talking to the Hecht's representative. Suddenly, she turned around with wide eyes. "Oh, my God," she gasped. "He's got a master's." for religious TV station Whiting Turner probably would be the company selected.

Benton, who professes to be a bornagain Christian, has been on the station's board of directors since spring of this year. The other directors are Longobardo, University of Maryland regent Paul Moss; Social Security Deputy Commissioner Louis Enoff; Nancy Pascal, who acts as prayer chairman of the Billy Graham telephone counseling ministry; Richard Alms, executive director of the Lutheran Mission Society of Maryland; and William Nickerson, a partner in the law firm of Whiteford, Taylor, Preston Trible Johnston. "Just recently were all the licenses and permits granted allow us to actual construction," Benton said yesterday. "There have been many contributions made over the year in support of our ongoing efforts." Benton said the tax-deductible donations are "still coming in." Longobardo said that the letters of ap- yet." Benton did agree, however, that Longobardo Injured teen-ager in serious condition Tammy Diven, the 14-year-old northeast Baltimore girl injured Sunday while playing with her Christmas bicycle, remained in serious but stable condition today at the Shock-Trauma Unit in Baltimore. Hospital officials said the teenager suffered a concussion, bruises, and internal injuries when she rolled off of a 15-foot embankment on her bicycle and struck a concrete wall.

She landed in Herring Run, near her home in the 6400 block of Falkirk and had to be rescued by emergency crews. A State Police helicopter flew her to ShockTrauma immediately after the rescue Sunday afternoon. Police incorrectly reported Tammy's last name as "Love" yesterday, her family said.
