 INAUGURATION BY RADIO
Study Hours Changed to Permit Reception of Washington Pro-
 gram in Homes.

Inauguration of presidents in the past have disrupted many things, but very rarely have they caused a change in a school session. This will be done. however, on next Monday when the students Of the Senior High school will have an abbreviat- ed afternoon session so that they may remain in their homes and listen to the ceremonies incident to the inauguration Of Herbert Hoover via the radio. Because of the great demand by teachers and pupils alike the wish that shortened program be carried out was granted by Principal Louis P. Slade. The after noon session will not begin until 1880 whereas II usually begins at 1;p5 o'clock.

WOULD MAKE COUNTY
UNIT FOR SEWER WORK
Petition Presented to Arlington
Circuit Court to Set Up
Single District.
BY stan Correspondent of The star.

BY a Stah Correspondent Of The Star.
ARLINGTON COUNTY : COURT
HOUSE, June 20.-State Senator Frank
L. Ball and Commonwealth Attorney
william C. Cloth today presented to
Judge Howard w. Smith in Circuit
Court a petition to have the entire
county set up as single district in
considering the establishment of a
sewer system. Judge Smith set July
"a as the date for hearing.
Previous petitions presented to the
court have called for various sanitary
districts, the first being known as sani-
tary districts numbers and 3, no other
petition having been presented as yet
for other districts.
When the matter came before Judge
Smith he expressed the opinion that If
possible the county should be consid-
cred as one unit and suggested that a
further study of the situation be made.
1t was as a result of this suggestion
that today's petition was presented.
In the petition the court Is asked to
set a date for a hearing at which time
it is requested to set another date for
a countrywide election to determine
whether bond issue shall be foated to
cover the cost of sewer construction.
