FREE SCHOOLING

PROPOSED
Bill at Annapolis Provides 1856
Scholarships for DeserV-
inu Students

ANNAPOLIS, Md, April 3.
The Maryland State Senate to-
day will receive a bill providing
1876 free scholarships to the
University of Maryland, for
deserving men and women.
This was revealed by State
Senator Milton Atfeld, Of Balti-
more, who said he will introduce
the bill today, after the rules
have been suspended to make its
introduction possible.
Charges Recalled
In discussing the proposed
scholarships, Senator Atfeld was
quoted as saying:
ut will be recalled that last
summer there were strong
criticisms directed against the
school authorities because Of
the manner in which scholar
ships were handled.
'It was said that ambitious
and POOR boys Of high in.
tellectual qualifications were
Sub0rdinated to applicants
whose minds ran . poor second
to their muscles.
TWO FOR EACH COUNTY
whether the charge Is true
or not, this will clarity the
whole situation and cause a
healthy reaction throughout
the State"
Under the present draft of the
bill the 1875 scholarships would
be divided so as to provide two
for each county of the State, two
for each legislative district Of
Baltimore City, and 7S to be
distributed by the university
officials. The scholarships would
be worth $500 each, or a total
cost of $4,000 a year.

JURY SUGGESTS
KIRK REWARD

LEONARDTOWN, Md, April 8.
A reward "of sufficient amount"
to attract capable J detective
agencies" to investigate the mys-
terious Kirk bombing case is
recommended by the st. Mary's
county grand jury.
Miss Ida Kirk, 76, was fatally
injured January when a bomb
exploded in her automobile as
she was driving toward Washing
ton.
The jury report stated that
while the grand jurors "believe
that a very thorough investigation
has been made to get evidence to
fix the responsibility for this
dastardly crime, it was so planned
and executed that it was a mat
ter beyond the facilities Of the
local authorities to solve."

BEER TAX CUT
Up IN SENATE

ANNAPOLIS, Md, April 3.
Baltimore city's beer bill WILL
from all indications, be the fear
ture Of the closing day Of the
State senate tomorrow, when q
fight to reduce the beer tax from
$3.50 to $50 is expected.
TIL $3.50 beer tax has already
passed the house of delegates and
comes up for third reading and
passage in the senate tomorrow.
Should proponents Of the reduc-
tion meet success, the bill must
be returned to the house for con-
currence.
Strong political backing in Bal.
timore for the reduced tax makes
it seem likely that the forces Of
reduction will gain their end. Rob.
ert Ennis, strong henchman Of
Frank Furst, called the godfather
of Maryland Democracy, is said
to be backing the beer tax reduc'
ton.

alleged "spite" murder Of her
five-year-old daughter at an in

Carolina, police say. She re"
turned here and was arrested.
Detectives claim Mrs. Holman
attacked and killed the daugh-

To INCREASE
FUEL LEVY
State Executive Also Ready
to Seek Cut in License
Price for Autoists

RICHMOND, April 3 q.N.so.
A substantial reduction IN Vir-
0inia's automobile license tax
and an increase Of two cents per
gallon on the gasoline tax to be
used for use in road building
will be recommended by Cover
nor John Garland Pollard at the
next session Of the legislature.
He indicated he was also plan
ming an appeal to Congress to
increase the gas tax levy Of the
District of Columbia in fairness
to Virginia and Maryland whose
motor fuel dealers report hav'
ing suffered heavy losses in
trade due to the low rate pre-
vailing in the District.
The proposed decrease in the L.
cense tax would approximately
balance the increase in the gas
tax in Virginia, Governor Pollard
said. The chief idea is to make
motorists who use the roads most
pay more than those who drive
less frequently.

Sylphlike Beauties Can
Drink Beer, Stay Slim

Here's welcome news for all
the slim young things who've
been worrying about those 110
calories in each glass Of the new
beer.
They'll be able to drink the
beverage and still retain their
sylph like figures-unlesS they in
dulge to excess. DR.. Louis Bisch.
eminent physician and author Of
daily health articles in The Wash
ington Times, explained reassur-
ingly today.
And, despite the caloric value,
the return of beer shouldn't neces-
sarily signify a revival Of the gen
erous, expansive curves which
were considered the ideal in fem
mine beauty before prohibition.
NERVES, APPETITE AIDED
"Beer in moderate quantities
is q food" said DIR. Bisch. "The
amount, of course, varies with
each individual. Taken before
and during meals, it gives appe-
tite and aids digestion. It re"
lakes taut nerves.
"Only in excess will beer pro-
duce fat, except in cases where
a special idiocyncracy exists TO-
ward fat. As q matter Of fact,
cocktails and hard liquor have a
greater tendency to add weight"
Doesn't Credit VOIstead
Andrew Volstead and the Eigh-
teenth Amendment had little to
do with the changes which have
The Washington times., 1933-04-03

taken place IN the feminine
form divine" during the last few
decades, he pointed out.
Fashion was more respOn-
sible than anything elSe," he
added. 81 believe that, right
now, girls drink more than they
ever did before prohibition. And
yet they're much thinner"
The modern vogue for graceful
slenderness is exemplified by
pretty blonde Caryl Bergman, of
New York, former "Follies" girl,
who tips the scales at lit pounds
"a startling and attractive con-
trast to the roly poly "ladies Of
the ensemble who frolicked
across New York stages in pre-
prohibition days.
Just Watch CarOrieS
DR.. Bisch sees no reason why
the average girl shouldn't enjoy
two or three glasses Of beer a
day without blurring the outlines
of her figure by excess poundage.
"If they're worried about
their weight, I suggest that
they compute their calories,"
he said. ''They do that any.
way"
The average woman should
have 2,250 calories a. day. he
explained. A man needs 400 to
500 more, depending upon the
amount of muscular work done.
Lest some ingenious individual
decides to consume 2212 glasses
of beer a day, instead of food, he
cautions against depending upon
beer, or any other alcoholic drink,
as nourishment.
