Citizens Seek to Improve
Transportation Service
at Rush Hours.

Resolutions asking improved trans
portation facilities were adopted last
night by the Chillum Heights Citizens
Association. meeting in the J. R. Keene
School.
One asked for the laying OF double
trackage on Kennedy street between
Georgia avenue and Third street with
switch at Georgia avenue so the
bulk OF the street c..'s during the
morning rush hours could be routed
over Georgia avenue to the business
district rather than on the Fourteenth
street line. 1t was suggested that
when the cars reach New York avenue
they be turned west again. The group
held this would make speedier trans
portation for residents of both its area
and the Fourteenth street section.
Bus Service Sought.
Another resolution asked the Public
Utilities Commission to install bus
service from Chillum Heights down.
town. 1t was shown that the present
bus line which ends in Petworth could

tional mileage. One plan suggests in
stallation Of bus service down Third
street to Kansas avenue to Thirteenth
street and thence to the center of the
city.

was approved
Preceding the passage of these mo-
tions, C. A. Davidson of the Manor
Park Citizens Association discussed
District transportation facilities and
their effects on the Manor Park area.
Committee Assigned Task.

was asked to take steps on the follow
ing projects: Removal of dirt and
mud washed over the sidewalks by re-
cent rains, the widening and resur-
facing Of Concord avenue from Blair
road to the intersection of Kennedy
street, reconditioning of Kennedy
street. installation of drain under
Rock Greek Church road at Shepherd
street to remove the surface water,
and planting OF trees on New Hamp-
shire avenue this Fall
A letter will be sent to the Maryland

Maryland so that the residents of this
area will have another outlet.

ing that the traffic hazard created by

MIRIAM HOPKINS IS STARRED IN
 TOUCHING DRAMA
Fredric March, GeorgeRaf Also in Cast of All of
 Me- at Coliseum

All of Me- the title of which can't convey the human appeal that enriches this Paramount pie ture, came yesterday to the Coli scum Theatre, and established itself immediately as the popular mag net it deserves to be.
 Not only is the picture notewor- thy from standpoint of compell- ing drama, but its cast, led by Frederic March. Miriam Hopkins, George Raft and Helen Mack, of- fers sterling performances.
 Briefly, All of Me is the story of an odd, interesting character, a society girl who rivets attention and sympathy regardless of her strange quest for love. Miss Hop- kins, calling on her entire store of talent, makes this character under standable, and Frederic March, playing opposite her as the college instructor and engineer, sustains the dramatic march of the story with an equally brilliant perform ance.
 Contrast to the social world hck- ground is provided by the parallel romance of George Raft and Helen Mack of the underworld, whose love for each other is a sublime thing. despite their life and surroundings.
 It is her contact with this low er-World amour, her effort to help the lovers out of prison and diffi- culty, that finally shows the de- butante the way to true devotion
 Raft contributes what is by all odds his most thrilling perform ance. He presents the incorrigible youth who can't reform regardless of the great love the other half of his character reveals.
 Helen Mack distinguishes her self as splendid emotional actress as the devoted girl whose cour- age and faith demand full display of her talents.

VICTOR JORY IS STARRED IN
 UPTOWN FILM
The Devil S in Love" Will Be Previewed Tonight
 and Opens Tuesday

"The Devils In Love" the Fox film that presents Victor Jory as a full-fledged star, will be pre- viewed at the Uptown Theatre to- night and shown at the regular program tomorrow night. It is the story of a young surgeon who proves his innocence of murder by willingness to sacrifice his own life.
 The locale of the plot shifts from the seething seaport towns of Af- rica, across burning sands to the peaceful atmosphere of mission And with the changes in locale comes a corresponding change in the outlook of the principal char acter.
 At the beginning of the story he finds himself at a Foreign Legion post, healing the wounds and the illnesses of these strange soldiers. The murder of the commanding officer throws suspicion on him and he is forced to flee to the protecting confusion of the sea- port. A derelict among other dere- licts he meets two women almost simultaneously-on the propriet- ress of a resort, the other a whole- some visitor from another country
 Torn between the attraction of these two women, he wavers be- tween sinking to greater despair and rising above his circumstances
