PROJECT STILL IN AIR.
Museum idea Brought to Notice
Here Year Ago.

The movement to found National
Museum of Engine ering and Industry
was brought to the attention of
museum officials here about a year
ago, when 1t was suggested that the
engineering and Industrial exhibits in
the National Museum be exhibited as
nucleus for the projected institu-
ton.
So far as could be learned here last
night, the project is still in vision
ary" stage. Money must be raised.
definite plans drawn and detailed or
ganization effected before the scheme
can be regarded as we'll on the way
toward realization. 1t was said.
If the plans of the New York engi-
neering interests are successful, 1t is
probable that the National Museum
here will cooperate fully in estab-
fishing the new industrial museum.
1t may even become a branch of the
National Museum, 1t was learned on
good authority.
Subject Under Study.
A committee representing the pro-
posed new foundation discussed the
project with National Museum OFF,
cials about a year ago, it is under
Stood and the matter has been re-
vived from time to time since then.
One of the committeeman was in con-
ference with officials here only a
month ago. but at that time nothing
definite had been done.
1t was indicated that officials here
will welcome such an institution as
a valuable addition to the notable
edifices in the Nations Capital.
Members of the honorary advisory
board, according to dispatches to The
Star from New York, include Secre-
tary Herbert Hoover, DR. Charles W.
Eliot and Gen. George W. Goethals.

LONDON. November ia committee
of the British Lawn Tennis Association

Gently to investigate charges of bad
manners against certain firSt-class play
ers competing in open tournaments. II
was the first time in the history OF the
game in this country that such an IN
quiry has been held.
The charges included the use OF pro-
family on the courts loud enough to be
heard by spectators, disagreement with
the umpires' rulings and laXity in conf
plying with the regulations. all OF wnich
offenseS, it is declared, were tending 10
bring the game into disrepute.
The great majority of players are not
affected by the charges, which concern
only a few black sheep who, II Is
alleged, show bad temper when they
disagree with decisions and sometimes
use disgraceful language.
Il have known a famous woman play
er TO leave the court in tears because
of the way her mixed doubles partner
addressed her.. one umpire toid the
Daily Mail, and other instances OF hK@
ma ture were cited.
The meeting agreed that disciplinary
,,,ea s,lres must be taken against the Oh J.
Tenders in the interests of clean Spoi /
and it is expected the question VIII bs,
