DEATH Of GIRL
LINKED To SPY

JERUSALEM, Nov. Z GN.S).
American consular authorities
and Palestine police today began
an investigation Of reports that
Joan Winters, American dancer
found slain near the Garden OF
Gethsemane, may have been an
innocent victim of international
spies.
Cabled reports revealed the girl
had written her parents she was
arrested as a spy in Turkey last
October. On the strength Of this,
police set out to run down the
theory the 25-year-old blonde
dancer was shot to death in a
case of mistaken identity or by
persons believing she might be-
tray them.
Despite the fact that inquiries
by American authorities revealed
Miss Winters had repeatedly pro.
claimed herself an atheist, she
was given a Christian burial in
the modest American Missionary
Cemetery in the heart of JeruSa-
LENS German colony. This was
done. at the request Of her family.

JR.Q,U.A,M, HAS
REUNION TODAY

One of the largest outings of the
season is being held today at Sea-
side Park, with more than 1000
members of the Junior Order of
United American Mechanics gath
ering at the Chesapeake Beach re-
sort for round of festivities.
Members from the 18 local
councils of the order, as well as
the Baltimore, Hagerstown and
Walkersville (MdD councils, are
participating in the annual re-
union.
A program of athletics, includ-
ing foot races, freak races and
swimming contests, has been ar
ranged by the reunion association.
The outing will be climaxed at
night with a ball in the board
walk ballroom. Lucky Spot"
dances and prizes for the best
walters will feature the evening.
Charles Welch, contortionist, will
make his escape from a straight
jacket while handcuffed as part
of the entertainment.
Officers of the Maryland and
Virginia State councils of the
Jr. o. U. A. M. will be guests at
the reunion and will be intro
duced to the members from the
ballroom floor.
William Martin is general chair
man of the outing. He is assisted
by E. D. Kaufman, John D Simp-
son, Edward A. Diehl and James
M. Simpson and 35 representa-
tives of the local councils.
Seaside Park is experiencing
one of its most successful seasons.
The past week with the DeRizkie
aerial circus as an extra attrac-
tion, saw large crowds at the re-
sort every day. Reduced weekday
train fares to the bay shore is
also believed largely responsible
for bringing increased patronage
to the park.

WEEK END TOUR To OCEAN CITY
OFFERS ESCAPE FROM HEAT

Calvert. The argument was
thrashed out by the Commission
ers of the Colonies in England
and the land was held to be Lord
Calvert's. However, Lord Calvert
did not gain absolute possession
of the land until 1888.
Grants of land in the territory
traversed in the Ocean City trip
were made in 1862. The Shore
counties played a large part in
the Revolutionary War, and have
become increasingly more impor-
tant commercially and otherwise
as the years have passed.
Hotels a Plenty
At Ocean City are to be found
scores of boarding and rooming
houses and several modern hotels.
Fishing and boating parties
outfit there. There is a fine
boardwalk, better beach and salt
water swimming pool for those
who don't care for the surf.
There also are golf courses,
tennis courts and other facilities
for practically every summer
sport.
The Midway offers many new
amusements this year, and it is
increasingly popular with the chill
dren. The place also boasts a
number of miniature golf courses.
The return from Ocean City
can be made by way of Berlin,
taking United States route 113
to Milford, Del, and State route
4O4 to Harrington, DEL, and Den
ton, Md.
From Denton the road leads to
Wye Mills, near which is one Of
the oldest places on the Eastern
Shore. The Colonial homes
throughout this section are noted
for their lockwood gardens.
Ferry Service
The road leads from Wye / Ills
to GraSonville and Stevensville.
At Stevensville, the road bears
left for Matapeake where the
Annapolis ferry docks. A right
turn at Stevensville will lead to
Love Point for the Baltimore
Ferry.
Ferries on the Cla.-~--c-----i-
nopolis-Matapeake line leave An
napolis for Claiborne each day
at a. M, p. m. and S p. m,

POINT LOOKOUT.
IS MECCA FOR
FISHERMEN
Famous Resort Has Been Rec
reation Place for NotabIes
Since Pioneer Days

The old order changeth and
Point Lookout. with its historic
background, is no exception to
the rule.
Famous in colonial history as
summer resort of American
notables, Point Lookout is now
dotted with cottages of a newer
generation where hundreds come
each summer to stand in one
spot and throw a stone in the
Chesapeake Bay on one side and
the Potomac River on the other.
Mecca to Fishermen
It's pine-pierced horizon, bor-
dering the sand-duned sweep
down to Point Lookout Light
house, is not only a welcome
sight to mariners, but has become
veritable Mecca for fishermen.
Each week come reports of fish
ing parties of Washington sports
men, corroborated with photo
graphs of quarter-ton catches OF
hardheads, blues, and weakies, to
say nothing Of barrels of crabs
netted by the womenfolk and
youngsters who stayed behind on
the historic lighthouse wharf.
Point Lookout was first visited
in March, 1888, when the Ark
and Dove arrived, bearing Leon
ard Calvert, first governor of
Maryland; George Calvert, his
brother; Jerome Hawley and
Thomas Cornwalleys, and assist
ants, or, as history records, 40
gentlemen of good fashion and
300 laboring men," st. Marys
City, nearby. was founded and
became Maryland's capital.
NOtabIeS Liked Resort
The popularity of the beach
point began to spread until by
1859 it was the favorite of Wash
ington fashionables. More than
200 cottages had been erected
there, according to land records,
including those of Chief Justice
Taney, of Baltimore; Cyrus Nc
Cormick, of Chicago; Reverdy
Johnson, of Baltimore; Gen. T.
F. Bowie, Henry S. Key, of Ala
bama; John l.. Daniel, of New
Orleans; John A. washington, of
Mt. Vernon, and Col. B. S. Rob-
ertS. of Georgetown.
At present, marks of the Civil
War fortification of the point
have been erased and there now
stands a hotel, largest on the bay,
with dining facilities for 500 per-
sons, with complete modern con-
VenienceS. An abundant supply of
artesian water is piped to every
dwelling and an electric lighting
plant is on the property.
The new Three-Notch Road has
greatly decreased the distance
and travelling time from Point
Lookout to Washington.

Table Enamel Saves
House From BUrNlinQ

Prince Georges county Police
man Elon Turner, of Nottingham,
Md, is lucky to have a home
today.
On leaving with Mrs. Turner
early last night he "blew out" a
coal oil lamp. Several hours
later they returned to find that
the lamp had exploded and fire
had consumed the table cloth and
portion of the table, while oil
was still burning in a saucer on
the table where it had been
thrown by the explosion. The
thick enameling had protected
the table from burning quickly
and probably saved the house.

CRYSTAL BEACH
DEFEATS HEAT

Heat wave or cold wave, it's all
the same to Crystal Beach on the
Magothy River, according to re-
ports from that resort to the ef-
feet that hordes of pleasure seek
ers visit the place daily, regardless
of the weather.
Its convenience to Baltimore
and Washington-less than 81
round trip fare from Washington
over w. B. and A.-makes it pos
sible for an entire family to enjoy
an outing there at small cost, it
is pointed out.
A safe beach for children,
dancing pavilion accommodating
400 persons over the spacious beer
garden, and a we'll kept bowling
alley are among the attractions of
the place.

RESORT CATERS
To FAMILIES

Morgantown- on-t the Potomac, on
the Maryland side, has retained
it's old-time reputation as a con-
servative type of wholesome fam
lily resort with attractive play
grounds on the beach near old
Cedar Point.
Absence of sea-nettles on the
first-class bathing beach, its large
greensward and shady grove make
it desirable for weekend picnic
parties.
Observation-Disclosures is
visited annually by numerous
Washington organizations for
their outings.

With the heat rising in SHIN
mering waves from the sidewalks
and pavement of city streets, with
the air becalmed except in
homes and offices equipped with
electric fans, then is the time the
ocean and it's long beaches looks
best to the harassed city dweller.
From afar the next field looks
greener, of course, and such is
the case with ocean when the
sweltering city man dreams OF
cooling off in the surf.
At Ocean City, Md, where the
coast makes broad sweep, WASH
intonianS can find relief from the
heat and amuSementS to take
their minds from the worries OF
everyday life.
This famous Maryland water
ing place is reached from Wash
ington over excellent roads with
a ferry trip from Annapolis to
Claiborne that breaks the monot-
ony of open road driving.
Over Good Roads
The trip is over United States
Route so, the Defense Highway, 10
Annapolis, State Route II from
Claiborne to Easton and United
States Route 213 from Easton to
Ocean City through Hurlock,
Vienna, Salisbury and Berlin.
Ocean City is on a sand spit
which starts near Lewes, Del, and
continues with a number of breaks
making the spit a series Of islands,
south to Chincoteague Island and
Fishing Point, the latter two places
on the Eastern Shore OF Virginia.
The trip to Ocean City is
through one of the richest truck
farming countries in the United
States. Small and prosperous
farms line the roads. The towns
do not have the woebegone look
too often identified with country
towns.
The roads lead through Talbot,
Dorchester, Worcester and WI
comico counties, territory that was
charted to some extent in the
early 16OOs by Capt. John Smith
and others of the Virginia colonies.
The first Christian service to be
held in Maryland was held on
Kent Island, opposite Annapolis
in 1881.
In 1927 King Charles the First
gave explicit instructions to Gov
eror Harvey of Virginia to pro-
cure for him exact information
concerning the bays and rivers OF
the country adjacent to the SET
tlement on the James River.
Island Settled
William Claiborne was COM
missioned by the governor to
make the survey and while thus
engaged did business with the
Indians, coming out financially
well off. He returned to Virginia
and talked a number of the Vir-
ginia colonistS to follow him to
what is now Kent Island. The
Rev. Richard James, a clergyman
of the Church of England, was
taken along and it was he who
conducted the historic service in
the Wilds of what was then known
as "Kentish Island"
Burgesses were elected and
represented the island in the Vir-
ginia Assembly until King Charles
granted the Charter of Maryland
to Cecilius Calvert in 1882. It
was considered a part of the Vir-
ginia colony until then.
Gov. Leonard Calvert landed in

In the first few hours of the session
