WOMEN OFFER
SUGGESTIONS
ON BRIDGE
Arlington Memorial Span Will
Include Some of Their
Plans

Many of the plans conceived by
group of women at the College
Women's Club and submitted to
Colonel c. c. Sheriff.. officer in
charge of public buildings and
grounds, may be incorporated in
the final plans for the proposed
Arlington memorial bridge across
the Potomac, Colonel Sheriff. says.
The plans were drawn up by
Emily Ray Gregory, 1925 Seven
tenth street northwest.
One of the greatest improvements
suggested by the women is a mag
nificent promenade along the river
front from Lincoln Memorial to
Hams Point in East Potomac Park.
Colonel Sheriff. said that just
such walk had been suggested by
the engineers and it's construction
only awaits the appropriation Ce
funds by Congress.
College women may, by their in
terest and cooperation, induce Con-
gress to appropriate funds for the
bridge, in the opinion Of the officer.
The bridge project was one of the
measures which failed to become
law in the last term.
