Major college football
eleyens will be missing from
the George Washington Uni
versity 1929 football schedule
as the Colonials have discov-
cred they can not successfully
associate with the bigger
teams Of the gridiron mart.
Last year, the Colonials were
F., pitted against Fordham, Lafayette
and Penn State and Coach Maud
Crum realizes the error in playing
these strong elevens. George Wash
ington doesn't class with any Of
that trio because it has not the
necessary number of candidates
nor the the players labeled with
much polish.
Crurm admits his team never
reeained its full strength after
meeting FOrdEam in an early
season game. Then followed
drubbings at the hands of La
Sayette and Penn State and In
iuries incurred depleted CFaEn's
limited squad
For this reason, George Washing
ton isn't considering any offers
from 9he big timers Of college
football. Probably, Fordham, La
fayette and Penn State didn't
make any overtures to keep George
washington on their schedules, but,
according to Crum's statements, he
would have turned down all offers.
In substance is the fact that
George washington could meet
Georgetown on october IL, IL the
CoIoniais desired the date.
Lon Little, the big chief At
GEORGETOWN, hasn't discussed
such b game with CruEa, but
J last year Georgetown and
George Washington were about
ready to sign for d pOst.seasoIi

the game.
,rhe ouantico Marines are. also
anxious to engage the Coionials in
this city next fall, but should
Major Fegan,, the athletic officer
Of the Marines, mention the matter
to Crum, he would be given . fiat
negative answer.

slated Dickinson College, New York

Estate AID SOUGHT
For BAY BRIDGE
Project to Build Chesapeake
Structure With Private
Capital Falls Through.
Special Dispatch to The star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
BALTIMORE, September 10.-The
project Of building bridge across the
Chesapeake Bay from Baltimore to the
Eastern Shore by private capital having
fallen through, Mayor William +.
Broening yesterday suggested to Gov.
Ritchie that the bridge might be ad-
vantageously built jointly by Baltimore
City and the State. He said he con-
sidered the project of SUFFICIENT impor-
lance to merit full cooperation on the
part Of the city.
For some time private interests have
had under consideration the conStruc-
ton of such a bridge, the cost of which
has been estimated at $4,000, 900, but
the project has Jagged, owing to pres
ent conditions in the money market,
which have depressed bond prices and
rendered it difficult to float new issues.
The mayors idea was that toll should
be charged for passage over the bridge
until such time as the city and State
should be reimbursed for their invest
ment and for other expenses incident
to the project. After that the bridge
would become toll free, in the same
manner as the tolls have recently been
taken of the Havre de Grace-Perryvtlle
Bridge.
The mayor explained he thought the
bridge project could be publicly financed
as link in the States highway sys-
tenn, which would bind the Eastern
Shore counties closer to Baltimore and
the rest of the State.

PRODUCED a resolution which was re-
ferred to the committee on roads,
streets and bridges, advocating the ex-
tension of Massachusetts, avenue and
also OF Goldsborough road. The reSo-
luton pointed out that traffic to the
falls now was carried by two roads,
Conduit and River, and with the con-
struction Of the bridge a heavy in
crease could be expected.
President A. B. Barber, who presided,
read a letter from C. w. Galloway,
vice president of the Baltimore &S Ohio
Railroad, answering complaint of
the federation, made by Woodside and
Silver Spring citizens, about the eX-
ceSsive blowing of whistles on trains
there. Mr.. Galloway said that engi-
neers had been instructed to use
whistles only when necessary, and then
only with the thought in mind of
creating the least disturbance.
Delegates were reminded from the
chair that the new delegates for the
ensuing year must be certified at the
next meeting, otherwise they will not
be eligible to serve on the nominating
committee for officers for the ensuing
federation year, which begins in No
Vember.
Emory H. Bogley, chairman of a
special committee, appointed during
the Summer, to examine into the mat
ter OF giving dinner next month, made
report recommending that it be held
at the Manor Club, and that provision
be made to invite several hundred
guests from civic bodies in the District
as well as Government officials to ac-
quaint them with the opportunities in
the metropolitan district for residen-
tial development. The committee pro-
posed that preceding the dinner sight
seeing tour through the area be ar
ranged for the guests, ending at the
Manor Club in time for the dinner.
The report was accepted and a motion
prevailed continuing the committee
with full authority to complete plans
for the affair.

ommending that study be made by the

Planning Commission, of the availa-
bility of islands on the Maryland side
of Great Falls for inclusion in the

TRAFFIC VIOLATIONS
LAID TO FEW POLICE
Officials Say Force Is Insult
tiCient in Numbers to Pa
troll Highways.
BY GEORGE PORTER,
STAFF Correspnndant of The star

BALTIMORE. Md, September TO-
Insufficient number of State police, is
responsible for the wholesale disregard
of traffic regulations on Maryland
highways, Capt. Harry G. Butler. chief
OF the force said yesterday in explain
ing that he only employed plain clothes
men to check up on bus drivers after
a fatal accident involving a bus made it
necessary to curb speeding at all costs.
Il feel that If we had enough men
on our force to patrol the roads prop
erly there would be very few traffic via
lations," Capt. Butler said.
The heed for more men has long
been keenly felt by residents of near
by Maryland communities which have
from time to time filed requests with
the motor vehicle commissioner for adj
ditional traft1c protection. Among the
more recent to file such requests are
the mayor and council of Capitol
Heights and the Exchange Club of
Prince Georges County.
What Survey Showed.
Last Spring a survey by The Star
indicated each State policeman in this
territory was assigned to patrol more
than 400 square miles of territory. Dur
ing the Summer this area has increased
due to the resignation or transfer Of
PoOAOhl1SAA al 4CCChO WGChS, W1lCII I'LL &C
or four police have been placed on
special assignments at fairs, there have
been as few as five State officers operat-
ing out of the Laurel substation which
ordinarily carries a minimum roster
of 10.
After citing the need for more men,
Capt. Butler yesterday discussed the
traffic situation generally. In regard
to buses he said:
From my personal check-up and
observation, find that in the great
majority of cases the drivers are very
efficient and keep within the law"
Prior to the accident on August 26,
when Herman Weigold was killed and
his wife, Elsie. seriously injured when
their automobile was struck by bus,
Capt. Butler said, few complaints had
been received at his Office about bus
operators driving recklessly or speeding.
II told uniformed men several times
to check up on them" the captain de-

SCHOOLS ARE OPEN
IN PRINCE GEORGES
Enrolment Of $4,000 Pupils at
Start Of Sessions, With More
Expected.

BY STAN Correspondent Of The Star.
UPPER MARLBORO, Md, September
10.-With an enrolment Of approx
mately 10000, the public schools of
Prince Georges County opened their
Fall term yesterday. Superintendent Of
Schools Nicholas Orem estimated at
least 1000 more pupils would enter the
schools at the close Of the harvest
season.
According to the superintendent, the
Bradbury Heights and Riverdale schools
viii probably be crowded more than any
others pending the construction of the
new building in the former community
and an addition in the latter.
Lower-grade pupils were dismissed at
noon yesterday and will continue to be
excused at that hour until October Is,
when they will start full-day program.
Three school buildings used last year
were not reopened this term, the at
tendance having dropped below the
minimum required by law.
The Seabrook School, closed last sea-
son by the Board of Education because
of small attendance, was reopened with
great rejoicing yesterday. Over 25
pupils were enrolled and many Of the
youngsters were accompanied to the
building by their parents, who wanted
TO see the improvements made In the
structure by local residents during the
Summer.
