THE SUN, BALTIMORE, FRIDAY DISTRICT PLAN FIGHT IS SET (Arundel Meeting Is Called For 10 A.M. Tomorrow By DEWITT BLISS Stay Annapolis, March 5-A meeting of public officials and other interested residents of Anne Arundel county was called for 10 A.M. Saturday by the county commissioners in order to against a redistricting proposal. The meeting was called at the suggestion of three other county officials Marvin H. Anderson, State's attorney; George M.

Nutwell, register of wills, and Louis N. Phipps, former State Senator now serving as clerk of the Circuit Court. Mr. Anderson quoted a newspaper editorial attacking the program which would place parts of the county in three different Congressional districts and, noting recent civil rights demonstrations here, suggested that the residents should be equally concerned with the proposal. "Dastardly Injustice" Mr.

Nutwell said that county leaders should forget whether or not they are Republicans or Democrats from Southern or Northern factions in order to fight what he described as "a dastardly injustlice." However, Mr. Phipps and Edward J. Klima Fifth) had, spent a portion of the meting in an inconclusive exchange of views. Mr. Phipps said he felt that Anne Arundel county should be joined with the Southern Maryland counties immediately below it as a single district.

He made his remarks shortly after Mr. Klima him how he reconciled his present stand with earlier statements that Anne Arundel county should be split into two separate counties. Mr. Phipps made no direct reply but sketched the history of the county, and the from an formation earlier of Howard county Northern section of Anne Arundel. Mr.

Klima suggested that another proposal, "the Hall plan" which splits the county into only two Congressional districts, might be less unattractive. He suggested that in this case the northern part of the county would be able to out-vote the section of Baltimore city with which would be coupled for congressional elections. Under the plan that met opposition tonight, the lower portion of the county and the Southern Maryland counties would be joined with the Eastern Shore in one congressional district, the Northern section with Baltimore city, and the Fourth Election district Howard, Carroll and other counties to the West, Mr. son said. They said they feared this would reduce the influence of the county voters in congressional affairs.

Following the discussion of the proposed protest meeting, the county commissioners, together with the Planning and Zoning Commission, held public hearings on two zoning proposals. In one, Countryside Homes, asked cottage residential zoning for 95 acres on a point between the Magothy River and Cattail Creek near Ritchie highway, and the Old Annapolis boulevard at Severna Park. In the second case, the Kasten Construction Company asked for zoning for more than apartment, near the intersection of the Glen Burnie by-pass and Quarterfield road. for Mrs. Lelia Purcell Willen, who died yesterday in a Baltimore nursing home a at the age of 79, will be held here past Wise management?

Howard Brown, more widely known as Brownie to ex-shoplifters and employees of the store, is demonstrating a top coat with a double lining, into which an amazling amount of merchandise can be quickly and furtively deposited by any self-respecting thief. For Education Only The object of the demonstration is not to help improve shoplifting techniques, but to educate the many Baltimore merchants who are being fleeced of thousands of dollars in merchandise. According to Mr. Brown, the coat technique is becoming increasing popular with shoplifters and is rapidly replacing the shopping bag as the standard prop in the trade.

He got the coat from a would be thief he caught on Washington's birthday, after chasing him four blocks from the Hecht Company on Howard street. The man, when apprehended, 32 boxes of toothpaste in the lining. Mr. Brown let the man go, because he wanted the coat more than the thief. "Regular" Lifter He wanted to use it for demonstrating the ingenuity of modern shoplifters and to warn potential victims.

If he had prosecuted the thief and taken him to court, he would have had to return the garment. "He described the man as a "reg. ular," but not a "real pro." "A pro probably would not have Lodge Wins In Vote At Washington College Chestertown, March 5 Henry Cabot Lodge outpolled Gov. Nelson A.

Although there are several different versions of the coat being used the basic principle is the same: an extra lining either sewn or attached to the coat to form a bag.

Divided Into Compartments The lining usually is divided into compartments, so the loot can be distributed evenly. In this way the thief is not thrown off balance either to port or starboard, or hampered in walking. Mr. Brown said the coat is also rigged so the thief can appear to have his hands in his pockets while standing at counter. But can easily slip his hands through the lining onto the counter and, under cover of the coat, whisk the items into the lining.

Mr. Brown also says the same type of coat is used by pickpockets. He noted that the notions counter in large department stores is especially vulnerable to this technique and said the lifters have been playing havoc lately with the merchandise. Quite A Haul Many items, such as razors, perfume, costume jewelry and the like might vary in value from $3 to $5, and an enterprising lifter can walk off with quite a haul in several hours. Many smaller merchants, Mr.

Brown pointed out, and especially naive salesgirls, are neither aware, their of or other alert duties -to enough--what catch the light-fingered pros when they are at work.
