and a lot of dust. that dust, in particular, is why parents say they are so concerned about their children's safety. a group of these concerned parents held a press conference outside of the school on friday afternoon. they say they just don't see any way this school will be ready by monday. now, all of this construction is part of a renovation project undertaken by the dc office of public education facilities modernization or opefn. the project is supposed to start as soon as school got out in june but parents say they didn't see real work start until three weeks ago. still they say they are just putting the finishing touches on the school and the school will be ready for students on monday. i'm scott broom in queen annes county where the heat may not be the only explanation for why so many football players fell ill during a practice yesterday. >> the general opinion of all of the doctors involved is that it was heat-related illness. >> i'm happy to say the students are all well.

>> reporter: the superintendent says she is as curious as many parents and students that he heat may not have been the only cause. >> we had all of our teams out here practicing yesterday. no other team had a problem. and that team really had only been practicing about 45 minutes when all of this occurred. so that's why we are looking at other sources. >> reporter: other sources, ebb including the water used by the team and the food, there was a team breakfast. the county will be called in and the sheriffs office will help too but there is no suspicion of a prank or anything illegal. a montgomery county police officer has been charged with perjury for testimony she gave about this arrest for drunk driving. although this video shows officer deena hoffman finding the defendant in the rear of the car on the passenger's side, apparently asleep she testified he was in the front behind the wheel. repeatedly given the chance to change her testimony she did not. the man was charged with drunk driving. when the judge saw the video, he dropped the charges, hoffman

is on leave pending her own trial. >> that was gary noneberg reporting. huge crowds are likely to hit the show rooms this weekend trying to snap up the cash for the clunkers before the program ends on monday night. one group you figure would be happy about the $3 billion bailout is instead decidely ambivalent about it. auto recyclers. say they are not sure they will make much money turning the old junkers in to scrap. rick morrow just got his first two clunkers today and figures most recyclers will get midwest of the rest in one big lump. >> 4,000 that means there is 750,000 cars that will hit the market as scrap metal, relatively at the same time. so, it could basically drive the price down, because supply and demand. >> reporter: morrow figures at best he will get 150 to $250 per crushed car and he sighst

says some recyclers are paying that much for them. it appears those new service charges for e-zpass registered in maryland is not sitting well with drivers. the maryland transportation authority says 19,000 users closed their accounts last month. the new $1.50 service charge went in to affect on july 1st. if you don't feel like dealing with the traffic and you want to get out of town, amtrak has a deal for you. a trip between washington and new york city is $49 now and it is good until december. they have extended the price cut on the northeast corridor and acela service. discounts up to 25% off. you want to leave early if you take metro this weekend. on the red line there will be no service to the fort totten station so the trains will run again again month and takoma and brookland to shady grove and major work at pentagon city this weekend. that means the blue line will run from largo town center to rosslyn and then king street to franconia-springfield.

it also means yellow line trains will run once every 36 minutes. on the blue and orange lines, trains will single track between market and stadium armory. you can add 30 minutes to your commute will, as well. police hope surveillance tape will help them catch two suspects who robbed two atms in broad daylight. the first one in northeast. an employee shield by bulletproof glass caught this whole thing on his phone camera. check it out. minutes later the pair robbed a store on kenilworth avenue at a liquor store. >> i think there should be a definite more show of force out here. >> it think it is ashame it happened in the daylight and nothing can be doab about it. >> reporter: the thieves appear to be equiped with firefighter gear. investigators are trying to see if there is any connection to the disappearance of similar items between a prince georges

county fire truck. all of that running around for school supply and clothes might be for nothing if your child isn't immunized. see thou the district wants to y thy r e d ret t ady for the first day of school. fab@

two people are counting their blessings as they walked away from a plane wreckage this morning. the police found the men at a curb at the bus stop. >> i saw the wreckage and they said we were in the plane so i was taken aback. how did you walk away from this? >> reporter: good question. both men are severely burned but are expected to be okay. 39 years old and suddenly the head of an agency that has probably saved thousands of

lives. you have heard deb bee's voice at several scenes include -- including the metro crash. bruce leshan has our profile of the new chair of the national transportation safety board. >> these are my boys. >> reporter: the family pictures are among the first things that deb bee hersman set out her new office in l'enfant plaza. they remind her of what is at stake every time she goes to a fatal crash scene. >> those people were loved very much and they were waiting for someone to come home from a bus from a train, from a plane on the highway. and they didn't make it home. >> reporter: in five years as an ntsb member and now as chair, hersman has seen far too many deaths the woodly park metro crash in 2004. >> lost someone i truly love. >> reporter: the maryland state police chopper crash in 2008. >> there were some broken tree limbs. >> reporter: the metro crash this year that killed nine

people. >> i can tell you that i rode metro twice today already. we have a lot of investigators that ride the metro every day an we want metro to be as safe as it can possibly be [ horns honking ] >> reporter: here at the scene of the metro crash in june, hersman was quick to complain that metro had more than a decade been ignoring the safety board's recommendation that it replace the oldest, least crash worthy rail cars. >> do you think about the fact it is going to cost $800 million to he place those cars? >> we are aware of the costs, but that is not our guiding principle. >> eleanor holmes complained that hersman knew metro couldn't afford it. >> if we con distantly negotiate ourselves down to recommendations only that people can do then i think the safety board is irrelevant. >> reporter: as she looks out

her window at reagan national airport to the traffic below you get the sense that he last thing her tenure at the ntsb chair will be is irrelevant. 9 news now and wusa9.com. hersman serves a two year term as chair and can be reappointed by the president for a second term. former homeland security chief tom ridge said he was pressured by the bush administration to raise the terror alert before the 2004 election. ridge says the came from defense secretary donald rumsfeld and attorney general john ashcroft. in the end the terror level was not raised and ridge stepped down. ridge's revelation is contained in a new book he's written coming out next month and that brings us to the mail bag question, do you think his contention he was pressured by the bush administration to raise the threat level is a means to help book sales is he another exofficial trying to catch in or a man of integrity trying to set the record straight. the address is
