 On the other hand, a perfectly quiet description of the games, un- interrupted by crowd noise would be unnatural and out of place. To give the radio audience the full color, and at the same time afford an inn mediate and uninterrupted descrip- tive account of the contests, the CBS will use glass inciosed announCcr's booth with a separate miCrOphOne connected in the regular circuit. but placed just outside the booth. When the noise of the crowd remains at the normal level. this microphone will be allowed to remain open, but in q moment of intense excitement. it will bo closed to permit Husing's voice to describe the action taking place.

HAVENNER
DRAF TING
PLAN

A long step toward giving
residents of the District Of
Columbia a chance to vote ex-
penditures for local improve
ments is seen by DR.. George
C. Havenner in a draft Of
legislation he is preparing
calling for a Citizens Advisory
Council to be elected by
vote of the people.
DR.. Havenner. president Of the
Federation OF Citizens Association
and by virtue of that office chair
man of the present Citizens Ad-
visory Council, had planned to lay
his plan before the present Con-
gress. but elected to delay action
until the new administration
assumed control.
The present council, made up Of
seven members, nominated by clti-
zens associations and elected by the
federation, has virtually no author
ity.
DR.. Havenner's plan. which has
been explained to influential mem
bers of both the Senate and House,
calls for nine members. five to be
chosen from the city at large and
four to be chosen from the fHlr
corners" of the District.
The Havenner plan would give the
new council official status; 1t
would consider the District of CO.
lumbia budget; it would inquire into
and report on all items calling for
the expenditure of money and would
have an official status in hearings
before the Burean OF the Budget

Of the E. V. Brown School,

The third-grade room is open to
the bitter winds sweeping in from
the North and West. 1t is flanked
on one side by a mud bank and
on the other three sides by ankle
deep mud over which has been
spread cinders.
Even Walk Is Broken
Even the board walk trayersing
the stretches of muddy playground
in front of the three portable build
ings has been smashed in by a
truck bringing coal to the school.
Little boys and girls, all from
good homes. are forced to leave
their semi-heated class-rooms and
go out into the playground to get
a drink of water. There is no
wash room. And old-fashioned hy-
dIrant, from which pours the coldest
of water, serves that purpose.
Towels are an unknown quantity.
Even the lavatories are unheated
and are located in the yard back
of the school houses.
When the winds sweep in from
the north and west. the third.grade
room is near akin to a refrigerator
and has caused parents of children
attending classes there to rise in
wrath.
OyereOats at Classes
The coal stove is located at the
south end of the room, but the
combination of cracks in the build
ing and broken window-panes serve
to keep from other parts of the
room any of the heat from the
stove.
The children often are forced to
git in class with their heavy coats
on, while the teacher conducts
classes from the vicinity of the
stove.
This is the situation at these
portables, the parents charge, while
officials down town" and ION the
Hill" debate over what should be
done.
The schools are located in the
Chevy Chase section OF Washington.

U. S. AGNEW FORMER
RESIDENT here IS DEAD

Old friends in White Bluffs were
grieved this week ito hear of the
death of Grant Agnew, who passed
away at Torrington, Wyoming, Wed
nesday, January 2. According to a
card received this week from Mrs
Agnew, death was due to a compli-
cation of diseases from which he
suffered intensely. He was buried at
Lusk, Wyoming, on January 4. Mrs
Agnew writes that she was unable
to attend the funeral, being i'll and in
a hospital at the time as result
of having been on her feet, day and
night for two weeks taking care OF
Grant. She expects, she says, to &C
back as soon as she is able, to the
ranch to sell the sheep, other stock
and household goods and will move
to Seattle to make her home with
Mr.. and Mrs. Perry Day.
U. S. Agnew was born July 8
1867, at LeRaysville, Bradford county
Pennsylvania and was 81 years, five
months and 80 days old at the time
of his death.
He was in the sheep business ir
Wyoming for several years but, his
health failing, he sold out there and
with Mrs. Agnew came to White
Bluffs in 1910 and purchased trac,
of land in the Terrace Point neigh
borhood on the banks of the Columbia
river, where he set out an orchard
A few years ago he traded this or
chard to Herman Heidemann for a
farm near Sunnyside. The following
year he disposed of this ranch and
went back to Wyoming, finally gett-
ing back into the sheep business again
While Mr.. Agnew's health was
somewhat improved after coming tc
White Bluffs, he was never very
well but his naturally optimistic nature
made him many friends during the
time he made this valley his home

AIR MAIL INCREASES

Although not located on any ali
mail line the White Bluffs postoffice
like that of every other office SC
located, is contributing its part to
the steadily growing volume of mail
all over the country that is being
sent by air. Where six months ago an
air mail letter originating at this
office was rarity. every day now
there are from three to ten of such
letters.
To meet the increased volume, new
air routes and feeders to already
established routes are constantly being
laid out, the latest in this part o.
the state being the feeder line be
tween Spokane and Pasco which i
is expected will be established abou
May /. If business continues to grow
it will not. be many years betor'
every town of any size will be hav
ing more or less direct air mail con
nections.
