heQ not over yesterday elgntn'
inning downfall before the Cleveland
Indians, the Griffs arrived here late
last night determined to avenge
themselves against Bucky Harris
crowd.
Four games behind the fifth place
jungle cats. Walter Johnson's COM
bination will be giving everything to
grab off an edge in this series. And.
in view Of recent performances. the
outlook Is far from discouraging.
The Tigers, however, are conf
dent that the Griffmen are q
cinch for them and are ready to
prove it. And this confidence
which seems well founded when
considering past performances,
may again put them over.
Washingtonians probably will take
particular interest in this four-day
ramble. Rival factions supporting
Bucky Harris and the Griffmen re-
spectively. have been at war since
Bucky's shift to Detroit last winter,
and, in many instances, have wa
gered substantially on the outcome
of their favorites.
Fellow southpaws probably will be
matched today. Earl Whitehill, four.
time conqueror of the Griffmen, is
expected to work for Detroit. while
e. Garland Braxton is Manager Wal.
ter JohnSon's choice.
Whitehill has experienced little diff.
ficulty in silencing Washington blud.
geons to date. but he will be bucking
a batting order which has improved
itself against sidewinders.
The Griffs have made good in
five of their last six starts while
facing lefthanders, and have APP
parently conquered the weakness
which once made them easy for this
brand of singing.
Too. Garland BraxtOn. who
has failed to oppose WhitehiIl
previously this year, generally
goes good against BuckS Harris
wallOpers. and has had sufficient
rest to come through with his
best.

tragedy. Fred Marberry entered the
eighth with a 1-to.0 lead. After that
flare up he was declared the loser,
3-to-1.
Morgan bounced 8 single over
Hayes head with two out when it
caught the latter between hops.
Joe Sewell thumped safely to left
and Morgan made third.
AverilI then singled sharply down
the first base line, and when Capt.
Joe Judge, who was going away
from the ball, stabbed herOicaliy
but futilely, the ball carried to the
right field corner, Morgan bringing
home the tieing run while Joe
Sewell took third and Averill
stopped at second on the throw'in.
Lew FOnseca, who had gone
hitless all day. then singled 10

AveriII across with the deciding
edge.
LLOYD Brown had started for the
Griffmen but retired after five
scoreless innings with q sore left
arm, Marberry taking up the slab
bing in fhe sixth. But three Cleve-
land hits had been harvested prior
to that eighth period romp which
settled the situation.

|SEEKS VOTE STATUS.
ON POLICE CENSUS.
Speaker Lee Introduces Bill
to Meet Condition in
Montgomery.
By a STAFF Correspondent of The Star.

By Staff Correspondent Of The Star.
ANNAPOLIS. Md, March. 26.-Spe-
cial provision to insure that new voters
in Montgomery County have lived at
least year there prior to the time they
might seek to vote is made in bill in
troduced in the House yesterday, by
unanimous consent. by Speaker E..
Brooke Lee of Silver Spring. The bill
is designed to take care of the special
situation in Montgomery, due to its To-
cation adjacent to the National Capt.
tai and because of its unprecedented
growth, largely an overflow from the
tablished by the expected passage by
the present legislation of the declara-
ton of intentions act.
The bill introduced today provides
for the taking of police census in 1929
and every alternate year, in Montgom-
cry County, as evidence of the right
and residential qualifications of new
voters to register. The census would
be taken during August. September and
October, and those persons whose names
are taken by the police would be quail
fed to register, without any action on
their part.
The present law, which both political
parties are seeking to have repealed, re-
ulires that a person who seeks to vote
must have appeared at least year be-
fore an election and declared his or
her intention to become resident of
the State The proposed law wipes out
this provision for the whole State. and
provides that a prospective voter. on
registration day. shall merely appear
and make affidavit that he has resided
in the State for year.
It was pointed out that the law now
in effect keeps many people from vot-
ing. because the new voters do not be-
come acquainted with it. many times,
until they seek to register. It is declared
to have worked seriously against both
political parties
While Speaker Lee is heartily in favor
of the repeal of the declaration act, he

GRADE-CROSS|NG
BILL INTRODUCED
Kensington and Sixteenth
Street Extended Issues
Would Be Provided For.
BY a STAFF Correspondent of The Star.

| BY a STAFF Correspondent of The Star.
ANNAPOLIS, Md, March 26.-An-
other contentious bill was introduced
in the House yesterday by the Mont
| gomery County delegation, providing
bond issue of 100000 for the elimi-
nation of the grade crossing at Ken
sington and the construction of an un-
derpaSs of the Baltimore g. Ohio Rail-
road, in the line of Sixteenth street
| extended. It was introduced under a
unanimous consent agreement. but as
1t cannot be reported out or committee
until printed, it will not be sent to
Senator Eugene Jones of Kensington,
until late in the week.
The grade crossing has been source
of contention between the mayor and
council of Kensington and Senator Jones.
The lStter wants a crossing south of
the present railroad station, while the
mayor and council want it at the end
of Connecticut avenue. which is to
be extended by a new road to the
Georgia avenue pike.
Mayor Confers in Crossing.
Mayor L. b. Ernest of Kensington ap-
peared at the tSatehouse last week
and conferred in regard to the cross
ing with Speaker Lee and the House
delegation from Montgomery. and later
wrote letter approving the crossing
site provided for in the bill. 1t was
pointed out that should the Senator re-
ject this bill, it will be years before
the crossing can be eliminated with
funds from the half-cent gasoline tax
collected by the State. This fund Is not
sufficient to eliminate all of the cross
ings quickly. and the program provides
for the elimination of the Hyattsville
crossing and the Cumberland crossing
before any others are undertaken. The
bill introduced today will provide for an
immediate elimination of the Kensing-
ton crossing, at which several deaths
have been caused by automobile and
train collisions.
The bill specifically provides 100000
of the bond issue for the construction
of vehicular and pedestrian overhead
crossing, northwest of the intersection
of Connecticut avenue and the Balti-
more & Ohio Railroad, and subway
for pedestrians under the railroad, to be
located west of the present grade cross
ing, and, If practicable, to be located be-
tween the present grade crossing and
the station.
Underground Crossing Provision.
The other half of the bond issue is
to be used for an underground crossing
of the railroad tracks between Sixteenth
street. at the Maryland-District of Co
lumbia line, and North WoodSide, on
the road to be located by the board of
county commissioners, known generally
as the Columbia Boulevard route.
This new road proposed will provide
q direct entrance into the District Of
Columbia from the Georgia avenue pike
by way of Sixteenth street, sending the
traffic into the Capital City without the
necessity of passing by way Of Silver
Spring and Alaska avenue, the route
now used. 1t will serve to develop the
great gateway proposed into the Capital
City by way of Sixteenth street.
