HITS ALEXANDRIA
Rezoning Applications Hold
ing Up Plans for Three
Buildings.
BY MARSHALL w. BAGGETT.


ALEXANDRIA, Va. September %.
Alexandria, once the proud city of
large one-family homes. appears des-
tined to feel effects of the modern
trend for apartment residences as
plans continue to go forward for the
erection Of modern apartment houses
here on every available large area of
land along the new Mount Vernon
Memorial Highway.
To date, in addition to the new
Belle Haven Apartments, remodeled
from spark plug factory at cost
of $4,000, plans have advanced for
three other apartment projects that
will involve an initial outlay of ap-
proximately 100000.
All three projects are now in the
throes Of red tape imposed by the
city's zoning law, which has to be
amended in each instance to permit
the proposed erections.
Hearing Set for Tuesday.
A public hearing on the requested
fezoning of land wanted for two Of
the projects. said to include pro-
posed 100000 unit in the 800 block
OF North Washington street and a
planned si,50O,0O0 apartment village
along the north side of Washington
street extended has been set for Tues
day. October 2.
The Portner Realty Co. of Wash
1ngton, which has requested the re-
Honings, is being delayed in complet-
ing its deals for the two properties
until the land is rezoned.
A third project. involving the ex-
penditure of $500 900 for construction
of an 82-apartment building on the
west SIDE of South Washington street
overlooking historic Hunting Creek
and the Potomac River, was presented
to the Alexandria City Council this
week, with a request for rezoning Of
city block on which the building will
be located
Wing Type Structure Planned.
Plans for this project, which show
q wing-type Colonial brick structure,
approximately $50 feet long, were pre-
sented to the council on behalf of a
Washington real estate firm. They
call for building somewhat similar
to the Wardman Park Hotel in Wash
ington, with two wings of four stories
and main structure of six stories.
Atop the main structure, the plans
call for a modern penthouse. the first
ever proposed for this historic city,
In which George Washington owned
q town house, Robert E. Lee spent his
boyhood and Gen. Braddock planned
his Inflated campaign.
Other deals for the erection of
smaller apartment houses are in prog
ress here and still others are in a
wind which bids to blow through a

to transform them into modern apart

edly as ever today.

Confederate soldiers that their

flag and helped to down it.
We Northern veterans should
not tolerate its display any

On the brown, bobbed head OF

When the girl flier set her big,
low-winged monoplane down on
Floyd Bennett Field last night she
set a new transcontinental speed

She made the trip from Los An

record, established in July, 1888,
by Amelia Earhart, by three hours
and 80 minutes.
In addition to besting Miss Ear

within seven and one-half min
utes of equalling the best time
ever made by a male flier on a

Scholars Jubilant Over
Discoveries at Athens

The, last seasons'S excavations in
the Athenian Agora, which were
conducted by the American School
Of Classical Studies at Athens, pro-
duced most important results. writes
I. Leslie Shear, professor Of classi-
cal archaeology at Princeton univer-
sity, in the Scientific American. The
discovery Of two buildings of which
the identity is certain made possible
the Identification of all the more i'm
portant buildings which had been
hitherto cleared, and thus solved a
leng-standing and much debated ar
theological problem.
One of the new buildings Is the
Tholos, which can be identified with
certainty because of it's circular
shape. It has a diameter Of 60 feet.
In the earlier records it is usually
called the Skias. This word, mean
ing sun-shade or umbrella, was pre-
sumably applied to the building be-
cause of its conical roof. The Tholos
was used as a dining hall for the Of
ficers Of the council and in it were
deposited the standard weights and
measures Of the Athenian state un-
der the guard of a public slave.
The second important building
found is the Altar of the Twelve
Gods. Its Identification was provid-
ed by statue-base, standing in front
Of 1t in its original position, which
bears an inscribed dedication of Lea
gros, son of Glaukon, to the Twelve
Gods.

out why women no longer buy his
line. The next day it may be an
apartment house owner who asks
how to make his house over into
smaller apartments.
And, believe it or not, the wall
space we were talking about plays a
big part in solving both these prob
lems," declares Mrs. Bowser, who
thinks she may have inherited her
special interest in building from a
line of New England ancestors that,
during three hundred years were all
builders.
Il can tell you of an actual case
of an unused attic done over with
proper use of wall space that
changed an unhappy and unwanted
mother in-law into a serene orna-
ment to the family circle, simply be-
cause it gave her place in which
she could keep her treasures, enter
tain her friends and most important
of all, be alone.
Il could show you children who
have been transformed from nerv-
Gus, irritable brats into poised, con-
tented boys and girls because they
have been given cupbOards in which
to keep their Observation-Disclosures
that are really theirs-and space
that is their to use as they please"
Going on the plan that seeing
is believing, Mrs. Bowser has car
ried out some of her theories in

each member of the family place
of his own-by using wall space
properly"
Problems like this pertaining to
the home and family are constantly
being solved by Mrs. Bowser and
her staff of 20 feminine experts on
food, housing and clothes. For this
blue-eyed, red-haired human dy-
namo is head of service which
furnishes the woman's viewpoint to
dozens of man-run BUSH .eSSes with
products to sell to the home maker.
THE president of big industry
which had called us in for consul
tation once told me that he regard
ed my organization as the wife OF
his, and added that all similar con-
Germs needed just such wife" Mrs.
BoWser relates.
That was exactly my own idea
when I brought together the most
skilled women 1 could find in the
fields of architecture, decoration,
color. art, design and household
management. I felt sure the mas
culine viewpoint in such matters
needed to be supplemented by the
feminine one"

forms a work table for a child, or
a sewing table for mother. Around
the radiator and taking up no ex-
ira room are drawers and cup
boards.
Most of the wall space is f1lled
with built-in cabinets that hold
everything from a tea service that
is used when the staff feels the
need of relaxation to wooden ma
terial in process of being styled
for client. In this room is also
a nest of backless seats that any
home carpenter can make, any unit
of which can serve also as a table.
I'VE deal in terms of people and
their changing environment" Mrs.
Bowser explains. BY proper utili-
zation of wall space we worked out
a one-room apartment recently for
modern young couples that requires
the buying of only three pieces of
furniture. Think what that means
with these new economic condi-
tons"
