ALBERMARLE STREET N. w.

The owner of this house had
an eye for beauty and unusual
ness when she picked this site
to build her home. On the top
Of a hill amidst a wooded sec
ton she has placed her house
in the center of an acre of
ground. A stone structure, with
desk terraces, fireplace and
courtyard. This is my idea of
a perfect small home. With
three bedrooms, two baths, an
immense living room with a
most unusual arrangement of
windows and dining room and
kitchen, it would certainly make
an ideal home for a family de.
string country home in the
heart of the city. On the
grounds there are two garages
and driveway leading from the
street. If you are a lover of
outdoor beauty, please see this
home as the view from every
window is inspiring.
ACROSS FROM WARDMAN
PARK
On the northwest corner of
Twenty-eighth and Woodley,
within the shadow of we'll
known Wardman Park, is a
home that would prove very de-
lightful to someone looking for
the unusual. The exterior of
the house is of brick and the
interior built on the center-hall
plan. A living room, with fire
place, off which is a porch
makes a very attractive COM
bination; dining room with
mahogany furniture, a rug that
gorgeous shade of blue which
generally prevails in Chinese
coloring; a clever little break
fast room. and of course, the
most important part of any
house, the kitchen and buffers
pantry. On the second floor
were four handsomely furnished
bedrooms and two baths, as we'll
as a sleeping porch containing
II large windows. On the third
floor were three finished rooms
and an immense complete bath.
This house is especially desir-
able in view of its most con-
venient and attractive location
.. about block from Con-
necticut Avenue. you have
markets, churches and schools
at your fingertips. This can be
rented furnished. If interested
get in touch with my office.

CHEVY CHASE

CHEVY CHASE
Just little distance from the
Chevy Chase Circle, in or in one
of the most exclusive residential

beautiful. is a little home that
can be rented for $500. Built
on terrace, it is reached by
stone steps thanked on each
side by beautiful shrubbery. Of
the center hall type, the living
room occupies one side of the

lovely porch at the other. A

TAKOMA PARK, MD.
There is an undeniable charm
about an old house. and this
home was particularly pleasing
in its wooded surroundings.
Gnarled old oak trees, a blue
spruce. that was breathtaking
in its stately beauty, flower beds
with their riot of color, all
added to this lovely home. 1t

even to new floors and modern
fixtures. The ground floor con-
sistS of a living room with stone
fireplace, a library, dining room,
with four huge windows, over
looking beautiful, well-Kept gar.
denS, and kitchen and pantry
that carry out the newest idea
in kitchen decoration. The
walls were tiled halfway, which
certainly is a great help in
keeping the kitchen present
able. Upstairs there were four
bedrooms, all of them bright
and airy. A most attractive
feature was the type of en-
frances. One on the front, a
second one opening on the drive
way and a third from the rear
of the house. Last, but not
least, porch across the front of
the house and around one side
was my idea of perfection, as
I am sure it would be a most
popular place. The rental
asked is 500.

Weaver Gets Early Start.

Cronin tickled pink He is con-
fident Crowder will go into the cam
paign much stronger than last year
and that Weaver, of little use to the
Nationals until near the end of last
season because of stomach disorder,
will be a sturdy slabman right off the
reel this time. The young manager is
downright enthusiastic about Monte
and says he would not be at all SUR
prised should the rangy right-hander
come up as the ace of the Washing
ton staff in the impending chase for
the championship.
Cronin is much more than merely
pleased by the way Whitehill and
Stewart have come around. He feels
the left-hand detail of the Nationals
curving corps will compare favorably
with that of any of his clubs rivals.
Jack Russell also is in fine fettle and
so much sturdier than last season
that the manager figures to employ
the '33 relief pitcher in starting roles
frequently.
AL Thomas, too, has shaped up rap
idly after a slow training start. He
no longer favors his doctored arm and
promises to be a dependable occa-
sional pitcher. as well as handy
hurler for relief work. Of the veter-
ans only Bobby Burke has yet to
reach the peak of condition. but the
stringbean southpaw is saying he'll
soon be there.
He doesn't have to hurry. though,

There is a general feeling that

All in all, this looks to be a grand
season for challengers in almost every
line of sport. This goes for boxing,
base ball, tennis and golf. The second
line has moved up closer to the front,
which happens to be just what spec
tators want to see.
