MT Bill Caligan, Wby Mfg Go.
 Dear Bill-What in the world happened to your boys in the 2nd and 3rd games last Tuesday even ing? They looked like the answer to the bowler's prayer in the grst game which was closer than your landlord on rent day. But when the Plumbers started ging, every body thought the Cost was lucky to get away with that first game.
 Do your boys spend too much energy trying to overcome that handicap? Is Mir Copp going back to Maine? How do you account for the fact that MT Husted took you over for two games, even beating your high single of IF How about practice game of 166 and then he could just about hit 100?
 What about Joe Dubiel's 75? We could hear your sigh of relief when that final ball was rolled.
 That sound resembling tropi- cal storm which rang through tho thin october air at the Chase al- leys last Tuesday night was the rush system, as demonstrated by the Engineers, finally starting a click. Tn adopting the rush sys- tenn, the Engineers natudally were Q bit uncertain about everything. Many flaws were revealed in the first round. Tuesday evening, how ever, before stiffer opposition, the Engineers and the rush system tri- umphed.
 Don Seaver, End string lead-off man was pushed up to the regular team and to prove that he studies his manual" diligghtly, he knock ed off straight marks and 8 135 score. He followed this with scores of 116 and 103 to take high three honors with 354. Don was ably as- sisted by the rest of the Engi- neers, who seemed to delightfully."- happy in gorging themselves with spares and strikes to create new hibh total of 1898.
 Showing flashes of their reputed power the Estiamtors came through in the final game to take the En- Eineers 5S4 to 627.
 The weekly meeting of the Tues day Evening Ladies' club was held at the Chase alleys.
 The Production lassies had their knobs adorned with the latest mill linery creation, the chic Becker lid. These were decorated with such daring and saucy sayings as Boost Prediction, Buy Now, etc.
 The Chase maidens come in their unusual sweatshirts.
 Miss May Mulholland won the evenings prize in demonstrating the most perfect hemstitching stroke.
 Miss Susie Drinkwater rendered @ few vocal selections.
 Tim Ferris called our attention to Roy Kroms one-man huddle system. It was very pretty to see Roy going through his signals like he was executing squads right. It was mighty nice to see him about face, take three steps forward and then throw the ball, but 1t would be more exciting to have that ball go places after that.

Marriage Request
OfCOlOred SIuyers
Denied byOfficials

The District Commissioners, after
lengthy consideration of the matter, to-
day refused the petition of two colored
men under death sentence for murder
for permission to be married.
DR.. Luther H. Reichelderfer president
Of the Board of Commissioners merely
announced the board had decided that
as a matter of public policy the requests
of the two men should be refused.
One of the men is to be executed Fri
day, and the other, who is the father
of two children by a common-law wife
whom he now wishes to marry is sched-
uled to be executed November 20.
From one source it was learned the
Commissioners were guided in their de-
cision by the feeling that to permit the
marriages would establish a precedent
which might embarrass the District gov
ernment. They were not convinced
either that any good would be accom-
plished by permitting matrimony. They
felt also that the staging of marriage
ceremonies under such sensational cir
cumstances would give to the District
unfavorable national publicity.

ALLEY CLEARANCE
PLAN IS DETAILED
Council of Social Agencies
Told P. w. A. Will Give
Demonstrations.

The Public Works Administration S
plan for a demonstration of slum and
alley clearance in Washington was ex-
planned yesterday to the Council of
rector of the housing division Of the
Public Works Administration. at a meet
ing held in the Burlington Hotel.
Briefly, Kohn explained that it is the
aim of the p w. A. to acquire the
property necessary to clean up one alley,
to take one block in which there are
some recoverable houses and put them
into up-to-date and kabitable shape, and
to provide one demonstration of decent,
low-cost housing for colored people.
Cannot Assume Entire Task.
He explained that the P. w. A. cannot
undertake the whole job of alley elinj-
nation and sum clearance in the Dis
trict, but expects to be able to provide
the demonstrations of just what can
be done as an example to Washing
tonians and to members of Congress and
other visitors to Washington. Kohn was
introduced by John Ihlder, housing con-
sultant to the p w. A. and the National
Capital Park and Planning Commits
sion
Kohn said he hopes that the present
plans of the p w. A. will not interfere
in any way with the passage of the now
pending alley dwelling bill in Congress.
1t passed the Senate at the last session,
but did not get through the House.
The P. w. A., he explained, at present
Is considering the formation of a gi-
gantic Federal housing corporation
which can undertake low-cost housing
projects in urban centers throughout
the Nation.
washington Situation Unique.
Frederic A. Delano, chairman of the
National Capital Park and Planning
Commission, said he had been greatly
interested IN the slum clearing problem
for many years Washington, he de-
clared, is unique In the number of in
habited alleys and some Of these dwell
placed back out Of sight of the streets.
Their habitation as homes leads to all
sorts of difficulties He held that city
planning in the future must take cogni-
gance of the alley situation.
Louis Iustenent, representing the
Allied Architects Of Washington, said
the great decrease in building opera
tions during the depression has given
the architects ulwanted leisure time
and that many Of them have devoted
at least a part of this time toward
studying the alley situation.
