Silver Sring Area May Take New
Name.

Coming of new name for the suburban
sections in the Silver Spring area for use
in an extensive advertising campaign to
be conducted by the communities this fall
Is being considered by the Silver Spring
Chamber of Commerce.
The question was thoroughly discussed
at the last meeting of the chamber. and
is expected to be decided at meeting to
be held Tuesday night. August 9th.
The majority Of the leaders in the Sill
yer Spring Chamber are reported to favor
the continued designation of the area as
Silver Spring or perhaps Greater Silver
Spring. but strong minority are repre-
scented as desiring an entirely new name.
which would put the newer communities
on an equal footing with Silver Spring
rather than have them merged in as a
section of Silver Spring.
While the advisability of such a step
has been discussed for some time, the need
for a definite decision was brought out
when it was decided to spend a substan-
tal amount OF money in advertising the
Silver Spring area.
Particular objection to the Silver Spring
designation for the entire territory Is known
to have been voiced at the recent meeting
by sponsors of North Woodside and Wood
side Park.

Ruling Ratifies Sale OF BrandeQee
Realty.

Under an opinion handed down by judge
Robert B. Peter. in the circuit court here,
James R. Ellis. of Chevy Chase. and others
become the owners of the remainder OF
the Montgomery county real estate hold
ings of the late Senator Frank B. Brande-
Gee, of Connecticut, comprising 746 acres
of land In Potomac district.
Several months ago trustees of the Bran
degee estate contracted to sell the property
to Ellis and his associates for $l31, 500,
but Gen. M. Gray Galinski. Us. A., retired
of Washington, residuary legatee, filed ex-
ceptions to the ratification of the sale on
the ground that the property had not been
advertised for sale at public auction, as
provided by the decree of the court
authorizing the sale. and for the further
reason that better offer had been made
than that Of Ellis and those associated
with him.
Judge Peter decided. however, that in
asmuch as the trustees in agreeing to sell
to Ellis and the others had acted under his
explicit instructions. after they had re-
ported to him their inability to consum-
mate deal, he felt constrained to ratify
the sale and passed an order to that effect.
The negotiations leading up to the sale
were conducted by H. Latane Lewis. a
Washington and Montgomery county real
tor. The money will. 1t is understood, be
paid and the deal closed within the next
few days.
