NATIONAL STADIUM
|SPROPOSED HERE
Col. Sheriff. to Sound Civic
Body Heads on Plan to Build
Huge Amphitheater.

Plans for great stadium here
which could be the scene of national
and international games and other
sporting events have been tentatively
completed by Lieut.. Col. Clarence o.
Sheriff.. director OF public buildings
and parks. he announced today. At
the same time he said that he was ad-
dressing letters to the heads Of local
civic bodies asking them to meet him
in his office in the Navy Building at
noon Monday. when he will lay the
entire proposition before them and
seek their opinions Of pushing the
proposition to definite conclusion.
The letters were sent to James 7.
Lloyd. president OF the Chamber OF
Commerce.: Samuel J. Prescott. presi-
dent of the Board OF Trade; Ross T,
Andrews, president OF the Merchants
and Manufacturers Assocfa tion. and
Jesse c. Suter president OF the Fed

Col. Sheriff. said that the purpose
of the conference which he is request.
ing is to determine the feeling of the
orga MIA tions which have heretofore
taken considerable interest in this
matter. At this time Col. Sheriff.
said he did not want to make his
plans public, because they involved
getting the support of the civic or
ganiZations. which would have to get
behind them. He preferred TO SUBJ
nit them to these bodies first to as
certain their attitudes.
He thinks it very desirable that
Washington should have such an es
tablishment, so that there might be
brought here the great national and
international games which are going
elsewhere because there is no ade-
Quate place here in which to hold
them. 1t is a matter, he said he also
believes, that the people here must
decide for themselves. and for that
reason he is submitting 1t to the civic
bodies to determine whether they are
ready and willing to get behind a
project which will give the Capital the
finest stadium In the country.

men went down with the craft.
There Is every evidence at the sub
marine base to indicate that officers
here have given up hope of any life
being found on the craft. Relatives
Of the men who lost their lives have
seadfastly refused to leave New Lon

sons. brothers and husbands could
not be found. Officers at the base
have told all of them 1t would be best
for them to return to their homes as
the chance for any of the men being

At least four men, including Lieut..

air odicers to command naval vessels
