Griffs Score Another Pair.

Two more National runs were reg
istered in the second session, in which
Giard walked Peck and Ruel at the
outset. Covey sacrificed and McNeely
singled the runners home. Then the
Browns, with two out, grabbed run
from RobertSon's two-bagger and Har-
ry Rice's chaser.
The Champs threatened to make
trouble for Dixie Davis, who started
hurling in the third frame, but he
squelched them. A double, a hit bat

retire any one filed the bases. with
one out. Ruel. though, flied to Harry
Rice so short that GoSlin dared not
try to get home from third after the
catch. and Veach, batting for Covey,
rolled harmleSSly to Sisler.
But the Browns had a fine time in

The parkway would include Foun-
dry Branch Valley, which embraces

these two tracts and adjacent land
which ii is recommended be pur-
chased should be left in their natural
state. Close study is being made OF

Foxhall and Wesley Heights. The
proposed parkway would extend from
Tenleytuwn to the Potomac River, and
between Georgetown and the Mary

The committee was of the opinion
according to Maj. Brown. that the
valley should he left III its natural
state, with the stream following its
regular course. instead of entering
sewer as it now does In the vicinity
of Massachusetts avenue. While the
sewer, according to the tentative
plans, would be left to carry off the
wastes of this section. nevertheless
il is proposed to have the stream
open in the parkway to carry off the
storm waters.
Consideration also was given by the
committee to certain proposed
changes III the street system north
