accuracy to all who came that way.
Visitors stepping into the restored
mansion will find themselves first in
q broad central hallway, at the y far
end of which, through an arched door
way, is glimpsed beautiful vista of
trees and flowers. A door to the left
will take them into spacious recep-
ton room with two open fireplaces
framed by carved marble mantelpieces,
typical of the period. These flreplaces
flank an entrance which leads into the
cious proportions, which contains
another fireplace with marble nantel.
Beyond the dining room is Lees ONCE,
rather small and narrow, and back
of these two. stretching the length Of
the south wing, is stone porch.
Passing through to the hail once
more, the visitors will enter door on
the right and find themselves in the
double parlor" wherein Lee and Mary
Gusts were married. This room is So
called because of the archway Of carved
wood and glass which divides 1t
through the center, perhaps the most
unusual feature Of the house, peculiar
TO it alone, so far as critics know.

According to George Finger, mayor
of Capitol Heights at the time, so many
fires of obvious incendiary origin broke
out in the community that the council
men and citizens stayed out at nights
seeking to catch the "flrebug"
Among the more serious fires &C.
curing during the period was one which
burned an unoccupied house completely
to the ground, and another near an
oil tank, under the porch of an occu-
pied dwelling. Suspicion was directed
to Carr when he turned in the alarm
! for that fire, but he was not actually
| apprehended until some nights later
when seen to leave his home after
o'clock in the morning.
Less than minutes later a fire was
reported in shed and Carr discovered
| watching it. Town Bailiff Mark Woods
/ Immediately arrested him. He then is
said TO have confessed starting many
| of the fires and pleaded guilty when
| arraigned.

AWARD PROTESTED
Virginian Charges Son Was
Deprived of Victory by
Change in Rules.

Declaring that last-minute changes
in the tournament rules had deprived
his son of flrst place in the District
of Columbia miniature aircraft tourna-
ment and thereby cost him the Gen.
Patrick Sterling Silver Trophy. awarded
the winner, Frank Salisbury of Waverly
Hills, Va, on behalf Of his son, Frank
Salisbury jr, yesterday filed a formal
protest with DR.. Frank w. Ballou, super
intendent of schools, against the award
of the trophy to Herbert Dorsey, jr.
Salisbury commended that his son
model craft and had entered the
tournament with the understanding
that total points in the three-day COM
petition would determine the winner.
Upon hearing through a rumor that
maximum duration would constitute
the winner. young Salisbury questioned
the officials, but failed to gain any
satisfaction. Later he learned indi-
rectly, that duration points and the
decision of the judges was to determine
the award, and Dorsey was declared
though, it is alleged, Salisbury out
ranked him both in duration and
points.
salisbury's protest was based on the
following:
Il. The program of events for the
three days of the contest, September 8,
and 6, specifically states that the
chairman of the advisory board offers
silver cup to the member of class A
or the ace who wins the highest num-
Der of points in the tournament, and
whom the judges declare champion of
the District of Columbia. Figures sub
v,a{kfoA HN|, Mics cvyRAil nokor A4r0Nkox ~
the community centers Of the District
of Columbia schools, to newspapers
show that Frank Salisbury, jr., in class
A, had So points, as compared to SIS
for Herbert Dorsey, jr. The same set
of figures shows that for the tourna-
ment Herbert @. Dorsey had SO minutes
81 3-5 seconds in the maximum dura-
ton class, as compared to 80 minutes
20 3-5 seconds credited to Frank Sails
bury.
"2. At the beginning of the season,
when the 1929 tournament was first
launched, 1t was announced by Miss
Baker that the Gen. Patrick trophy
would be awarded to the boy in class A
points. Frank Salisbury had accumu-
lated 101 points, as. compared to II
points for Herbert Dorsey, and Miss
Baker then suddenly decided that the
prize would be awarded to the winner
of the special three-day tournament.
"3. The understanding of Frank
Salisbury, jr., being that the trophy
was to be awarded for the most points
made during the three-day tourna-
ment, and being refused information
by Miss Baker, he went ahead accumu-
lating points. Hearing rumor that
maximum duration was to govern the
award he also made special efforts in
shown by Miss Bakers figures, above,
that he won both on points and on
duration in the ace and class A classes. 3"
It was learned today that DR.. Bal

SIMON TO STUDY
GREAT ARCHIVES
Government Architect Sails We'd
nesday for Europe for
Extensive Tour.

Planning to combine in the great
archives building soon to be erected here
not only the latest, but the best features
of such an establishment, Louis A.
Simon, head of the architectural d.
vision, supervising architects office,
Treasury Department, will sail next
week for Europe, where he will make
tons of the old archives structures of
Europe, which preserve the priceless
records of old world civilization.
Mr.. Simon, who represents the Gov
eminent on the Treasury Board of
Architectural Consultants, will depart
Wednesday from New York and expects
to visit London, Paris, Berlin, Vienna,
Rome and other capitals.
The European trip comes as an OUT
standing development following the
meeting here this week of the Treasury
Board of Architectural ConsultantS, of
which MIR. Simon Is a member. The
various members of the board have been
developing tentative plans for several
new buildings to be erected In the
Federal triangle. and these plans were
approved generally by the Fine Arts
Commission.
Extensive hearings have been held at
the Treasury, when representatives Of
departments and establishments of the
what records they expected to put into
the archieves building and what con-
nection they would have with the build
ing.
Need for an archives structure for
the Government long has been stressed
and recognized on all sides. Congress
appreciated this by placing the Archives
Building on the first list for construc-
ton under the great Federal building
Amvs N@r1r
has authorized the expenditure of So
900, 900 for archives and already has
appropriated 81 ,000, 900 for this purpose,
The site for the Archives Building
has been moved several times. Within
the Federal building triangle, bounded
by Pennsylvania avenue, Fifteenth
street and b street, there have been
at least three different locations picked.
The present location for this building
is bounded by Ninth and Tenth, b
street and Pennsylvania avenue. In
"toy-city'' model Of the triangle, thus
building is shown as tall, virtually
square building, sunk deep into the
ground and surrounded on three sides
by o so-called SHELF building, which
will provide more preSentable and
ornate exterior to the streets than the
archives structure itself.
Mr.. simon Is head or the division
which is working out plans for the
Government building program not only
In Washington, but throughout the
country. Assistant Secretary of the
Treasury Ferry Heath and Acting Su-
pervising Architect James A. Wetmore,
under whose jurisdiction Mr.. Simon
operates his division, have been keenly
interested in the archives project.
The trip to Europe by MIR. simon is
considered by Assistant Secretary Heath
as a highly important and necessary
factor in the development of the Mulch
needed archives structure.
