LONDON, May 25.-In an at

and riots, Scotland Yard, relentless,
nemesis of criminals, was born here
fifty-three years ago.

Of escaping the moose. It may not

The reorganization of the sci

were forced to resign, will lead
to much broader study ano
more careful educational plan

It is hoped, the report states
that each of the sciences con

appropriate place in the cultural

IN NEXPLOS|ON

Inexperience with coal fires
caused severe burns to Douglas
Mason, 10, of 1920 Cedar Ave-,
Silver Spring, Md, who threw a
bucket of gasoline on the Goals
after five or six attempts to build
fire had failed.
The gasoline exploded, setting
fire to his clothing, and tenn
pcrarily binding him. He ran
out into the yard and fell down
a steep bank on the lawn. This
is believed to have extinguished
the flames.
He returned to the house and
smeared lard over his hands and
climbed into a tub Of cold water,
where his mother found him some
time later.
Young Mason had never seen a
coal fire until he came here, as his
experience in Western city from
which he came had been with
gas and wood fires. He makes
his home with his mother and
father, Mr.. and Mrs. Roy S.
Mason.

ST|RS STRIFE

ANNAPOLIS, Nov. 4.-Citizens
here are up in arms with the Navy
Department for having anchored
the Constitution so far out in the
stream as to make it dangerous
for school children to visit the old
frigate.
Members of the Guy Carleton
Parlett American Legion Post
passed a resolution last night call
ing on Naval officials to issue a
signed statement as to why the
old ship was not tied up at a dock
or was not anchored closed to the
shore. The resolution pointed out
that various warships have expert
enced no difficulty in tying up at
the Academy dock.
The Academy authorities and
county school authorities have ex-
pressed themselves as unwilling to
assume the responsibility of TAX
ing school children over to the
ship. It was even suggested that
each child carry a signed release
from responsibility given him by
his parents. Action is expected
today on the legion resolution.

BRIDE To DECIDE
SCHOOL SITE

Corporation Counsel William
w. Bride was to be asked today
to determine whether a site, which
Congress specified should be ac-
quired for an elementary school,
could be converted to use as O
senior high school location.
The site is the much-discuSsed
one at Thirty-ninth and Fessen-
den Streets Northwest, which
Senator Gerald P. Nye, of Ne
braska, is said to have urged as
the location for the senior high
school to be built in the Reno
section of Chevy Chase.
The property is now involved
in condemnation proceedings, the
District having initiated that &C.
tion in accordance with a clause
in the appropriation bill which
specifies it be acquired for ele.
mentary school purposes.
In announcing that he would
ask Mr.. Bride for an official
ruling, Major Dawson said he
also is considering two other sites
in the same section for the senior
high school.
The Board OF Education has
disapproved of the property for
senior high school purposes be-
cause it will necessitate the build.
ing of an irregular structure and
will not provide playground facili-
ties.

afraid of him. Mother begged
him to stop drinking. Only two
weeks ago he threatened to kill
her, and threw me down the
5teps, bruising me-"
Mrs. Emma beavers, of Seat
Pleasant, Md, learned Of the
tragedy through newspapers and
came to be near her sister.
