Citizens of Rockville, at a mass
meeting Monday night indorsed the
plan advanced by the State Roads
Commission for partial elimination OF

The plan adopted was for the con-
struction Of an overpass about 100
yards south of the present crossing,
near the present wooden structure.
which will connect with the Balti-
more and Veins MILL roads, thus
diverting through traffic from the
dangerous crossing now in use. The

sion to install safety devices at the
old crossing, in order to eliminate the
necessity of doing away with the old
crossing.
Mayor Douglass M. Blandford, who
presided announced that the town
council would take suitable action on
the Endorsement immediately.
Three plans were considered at thu
meeting. The most-favored route
and the one finally approved, pro
vldes for the overhead bridge above
mentioned This is known on the
map as the "red" plan. Another
plan, known as the blue" route. IN
the old plan originally favored and
another overhead route. The ''brownD
plan, or the underpass, received
scant consideration.
The votes were: 81 for the over
head, or Viers Mill Road hookup-
the red" plan; 10 for the 'sbluer.
or original overhead route; 8 for the
underpass plan, designed to eliminate
Monkey Run.
AccoNding to reports, indirectly
quoted from DIR. Tabler, chairman Of
the State Roads Commission, the
bridge will be completed within the
next months. ALI plans have to
be presented the government before
December 16.

Kounty Kuriosities
BY Hillbilly Hill

Upon the sands of. Sandy Spring
Among the rocks of Rockville
We listen to Glen Echo ring
And babbling brooks of Brookeville.
At Beantown do we get our beans
At Colesville dig our fuel
Our villa at Travillah leans
Der Poolesville's crystal pool.
When summer sets at Somerset
Our son leaves from Sonoma
Some wood at Woodfield for to get
To take home to Takoma
Would Montrose by another name
Be just as sweet as Sugarland?
Do drums Of Drummond beat the
game
While trumpets Blair to join the
band3
Will children in the Carrot Park
II they can't sing in Kensington?
viii Chevy Chase them in the dark
Into -Four Corners, one by one?
Where are the dogs Of Kennelworth !
Do you think they win Sellmanf
OF silver, Silver Spring is dearth
Take them to Hunting Hill, mani
Oh ask US to Damascus! Let us
Cedar Grove or Oakdale.
Can we say Jamestown and not cuss
When White Oak is SO palef
When hens won't lay in Laytonsville
Or artists etch at Etchison,
From Ashton, ashes Of Burnt Mills
Well haul in trucks to Truxton.

Maryland Names
Upham To Help
Highway Program
Road Authority Selected To
Act AS Consulting Engineer
On Construction

DR.. H. E. Tabler, chairman of the
Maryland Roads Commission, an
nounced Tuesday that Charles M. Up
ham, engineer director of the Ameri-
can Road Building Association and
one of the worlds foremost highway
engineers, has been employed as con-
sulting engineer by the commission.
At the same time Chairman Tabler
disclosed that the commission is
drafting an all-inclusive highway pro-
gram that will utilize all available
Federal and State funds on construc-
ton projects that viii provide the
foundation for making the Maryland
highway system adequate to serve
ever-increasing highway traffic.
Upham will continue as engineer
director of the American Road Build
ing Association, with headquarters in
Washington, but he will serve actively
in an advisory capacity with Chief
Engineer Nathan L. Smith, of the
Maryland Roads Commission.
DIR. Tabler said that in obtaining
Upham, it was felt that Maryland
would receive the full benefit of the
experience he had gained in building
some of the most modern highway
systems in the United States, Mexico,
Cuba and Latin America.
It was disclosed that the Maryland
commission already had conferred
with Upham relative to extensive pro-
grams in the immediate future and
that all available funds and separate
construction programs are being cor
related to form composite State en-
terprise.
Funds are available from regular
Federal aid, which must be matched
by State funds, the Federal Enfer-
gency Relief, from WPA in the farm
to market highway program, to. which
will be added whatever additional
State funds that may be available.
Maryland roads maintenance work
ers from county supervisors down to
the common laborers are going to
school shortly to learn more about
how to better construct highways.
Announcement was made by the
State Roads Commission that it has
invited number Of leading highway
builders from nearby States to ap-
gear in each of the various counties
of the State to lecture before groups
of workers.
The commission has found that in
recent years much Of the ineficiency
in the highway maintenance depart
ment was due to Lack Of knowledge by
county officials and laborers In how
roads should be built.

PARIS STYLES

United Press Staff Correspondent
 Peris (U.P.) Physically, we are right here In Paris. but spIri- tually we are lolling In a com fortabie chair at the Palace Hotel in St. MOritz taking note Of our smn rtesL clothes as worn the time away until some other Idea strikes them.
 For those who adore to look at snow. but who dread the Idea of being hitched to Il pair of skis. indoor tennis has become quite tho thing. SD ectntor clothes. therefore, have become important. Most popular outfits consists Of knickers Of string color, gray or grelge, worn with plaid jackets, dark swcators, while gaiters, dark socks and regulation ski boots. Jackets are shoN with most Of the costumes except the very classic ski suit, and are nipped in at the waist and slit in back. In front they are single and doubie.breasted with modest iapeis.
 Even if you don't ski you must occasionally Do seon wearing q ski suit, because everybody does. For the moments when pure spectating is required by the smart set, flannel suits with very tight skirts aro important. Frc- auentiy ono sees tweed skirts with gray or light vests ane dark when the skirt is tight, tho Jacket can be straight but loose 10 that the effect is . study in contrasts.
