By Stan Correspondent of The Star.
SILVER SPRING, Md, May So
With the granting by the Montgomery
County commissioners Of a permit to
the Silver Spring Building Supply Co.
TO construct freight sidings over Oak
street here, the way was cleared for
the development Of an industrial area
between Oak street and the new Be-
theSda-Silver Spring Highway, east of
the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad tracks.
The permit was strongly contested by
the residents of the area, who contend
ed that it would destroy the residential
value Of the properties. On the ether
hand, 1t was pointed out that the prop
critics would be worth more for indus
trial purposes later than as residential
properties. Oak street, where it is pro-
posed to have the tracks cross, is at
present unimproved.
"a A petition of the residents of Silver
Spring against the project was present.

at'the public hearing. Others who spoke

ROCKVILLE. Md. May 30-Follow-
ing the decisions of Judges Robert B.
Peter and John S. Newman in the Cir
cult Court here yesterday afternoon
regarding the circumstances under
which residents of Maryland may use
within the State automobiles belonging
to their nonresident owners without
having such cars equipped with Mary
land license tags, and which operators
of the kind are required to have Mary
land chauffeurs' permits. States Attor-
ney Robert Peter addressed commu-
nication to Chief of Police ALIVE A.
AIoxley calling attention to the opin-
ions and indicating that he would ex-
pect the police TO enforce the laws ac-
cordingly.
The opinions are of widespread in
terest and are final, as there is no APP
peal from decisions of the Circuit Court
in such cases.
Decision Of Judges.
Judges Peter and. Newman decided
yesterday that residents of Maryland
violate the law II they operate their
non resident employers automobiles
within the State for their personal use,
as we'll as on business for their en-
ployers. If such cars are not equipped
with Maryland license tags. Such driv-
ers are owners within the meaning of
the law and therefore do not have to
obtain Maryland chauffeurs' permits,
the court held. ".
The decisions were rendered in cases
against T. Brooke Amiss of Chevy
Chase, an employe of Galliher &
Huguely of Washington. who was found
guilty in the Police Court here and
fined Sill and costs in each case by
Judge Samuel Riggs.
The other cases decided yesterday
were against Robert F. Carter of Gar
rett PARK and Kenneth Mcintosh Of
Takoma Park, employees of the Potomac
Electric Power Co. of Washington.
Found Guilty.
Carter was recently found guilty by
Judge Riggs because he did not have
Maryland license tags on a car of the
company which he used in this county
in conveying him between his home
and place of employment, and McIn-
tosh. who was also convicted by Judge
Riggs, used a car of the company In
the county for a similar purpose and
also drive 1t in the county on company
business. Neither used a company car
in the county for personal reasons. The

and costs, fine of more than $40 being
necessary to make an appeal possible
1t was shown that both Carter and
Mcintosh had Maryland chauffeur Ii
censes, which the court held was proper
The cases were brought to test the
questions involved and were decided
in both courts on agreed statements
of facts. Had the cases not been in
tended to have the Circuit Court pass
upon the questions, some of Judge
Riggs decisions would, he indicated,
have been, different.

Even the polite traditions Of the royal

troll outbursts Of partisanship under sucn

sport, so long as the big ballyhoo keeps

even dared to say perhaps the pre-

the disputes of the fans are responsible

" Kansas City has aspiration:
~ Of boaSting two national tennis
champions some day. On Will
bur F. Coen. jr, known wher.
ever tennis is played as Junior Coen-
the Midwestern city is pinning Its faith
for a mems championship. The city's
hope for woman champion is Mary
Greet, No. ranking girl player last
year. $780,.
Rear@ of copy have been written
about } :nior Coen, one of Americas
hopes for a court renaissance. but the
cheering in Miss GreerS behalf has
never progressed any farther than the
whispering stage.
Both Youngsters received fundament-
al training from Carl Meyer at the
Rockhill Tennis Club. Before blossom
ing into national prominence Coen
swung his allegiance to Bill Tilden.
Coached by Mrs. Wightman.
This season Miss Greet has been I'M
der the wing of Mrs. George Wightms n,
fairy godmother, also, to other youth
full players, and recognized authority
on court strategy, but she still receives
instruction from her former mentor by
the correspondence route, as Meyer mas
moved to North Dakota.
The Kansas City girl hasn't any very
impressive titles yet, but she has the
determination which usually gets what
it seeks. such enthusiasm for tennis as
only title holders know, and remark
able, though brief record behind her.
Tennis followers will do well to watch
her in the next two or three seasons.
After several years of preliminary
play Mary Greet became interested in
tennis as it should be played, and in
characteristically fortnight fashion she
set about 1t.
That meant undoing careless swatting
habits built up through the trial and
error method. 1t meant two or three
hours of tedious practice daily on
strokes against an uninteresting tennis
wall. For days Miss Greet was not
permitted to face an opponent.
After fairly successful campaign
last year she began her campaigning
among seasoned woman players this
season. She Is not looking for any ma :
tional titles yet. But she sees the goal
ahead clearly.
Is Helen Wills Type.
Mary Greet is the Helen Wills type
in more than one respect. She ranks
high in her studies, has poise beyond
her years, and Is clear of eye and 1.-THE
of limb. She is tall and somewhat
rangier in build than the California
girl. quality which may add notch
or two of speed to her play.
Will the Kansas City star receive a
national ranking this season? The
consensus seems to be that she de-
serves a rating in the first 10. Sarah

training site for a big league club. A
move to another State might benefit
the Nationals greatly.
Thbse eight games remaining on the
washington schedule are to be played
in six days. In respect to the memory
of Miller Higgins, Yankee manager,
who died yesterday in New York, Presi-
dent Barnard ordered all American
League games scheduled for tomorrow
postponed. So the Yankees, here for
the last time this year, were to play
one game this afternoon, while on Sat-
urday they will engage the Nationals In
a double-header and on Sunday In a
single contest. The Athletics are hav-
ing their park prepared for the world
series, and to interfere with the work
invade Philadelphia only one day next
week. A double-header with the new
champions will be played Tuesday, the
Wednesday game being moved up. No
change in the dates for the Red Sox
games has been made.
Death has taken close friend from
me-" said President Grifhth in paying
tribute to the departed New York man
ager. II first knew Miller about 25
years ago, and from 1909 on knew him
second base for me when managed the
Reds in Cincinnati. He was likeable
man and q loyal friend. Base ball has
lost one of its finest characters and a
great leader"
President Grif1ith is not likely to at
tend the funeral services in New York
tomorrow. The Washington executive
has not been in the best of health the
past few days, and his physician has
advised him to travel as little as posi-
BILE at this time.
Although there will be no games In
Grifith Stadium tomorrow, the fair
fans will not be deprived of their last
ladies' day. The club ONCE advanced
this weekly privilege from Friday to

and trade punches with him at the

the sort of game he wants. For the

1t is understood business men S
organizations of Chattanooga have
assured the Nationals they would
he welcomed by that city. The
most ardent supporter of Texas as
fine State for ball clubs in train
ing is Cylde Milan, coach with the
Nationals. Clyde's home is in the
Lone Star State, and he declares
there are many cities in it await
ing a big league ball club with
open arms.
~ Birmingham. Ala, too. is mentioned

ditioning camp. Birmingham has in
lockwood Field fine base ball plant,
about the best in the South. The Ma
tionals know 1t quite WELL for they have
played the Barons there each Spring for
some years.
.: Apt to Seek Guarantee.
Wherever President Grifith takes his
Nationals next Spring, the club more
than likely will be guaranteed a sub
stantial contribution to its Golfers for
the purpose of defraying training ex-
penses. 1t costs a deal Of money to get
a big league outfit In trim for play IN
the championship season. and 1t is rea-
sonable for a club to look for help from
the city in which it trains.
Little support was given the Wash
ington club by Tampa. When the Ma
tionals first trained there the exhibit
ton game gates were only fair. The
assistance of the business mems orHanl-
cations of Tampa was sought but these
organizations little appreciated having
the Washington club in the West Coast
metropolis. The past few years the at
tendance at games in Tampa dwindled
to such an extent that the Washington
club was forced to dip deep into the
red to make its training season books
balance.
Excepting St. Petersburg, the training
base of the Braves and the Yankees, no
Florida town has proved a profitable
