TWO MENTIONED
FOR PRINClPALSHIP
Woodrow Wilson High School
Appointment Date as Yet
Speculation.

At least two names have been men
toned unoficially as possible selec-
tons as principal of the new Woodrow
Wilson High School in Chevy Chase,
which is to be opened next September.
No official action has been taken to
appoint the head of the new senior
high school nor have applications for
the appointment been invited by DR..
Frank w. Ballou, superintendent of
schools, so that to date the choice
remains matter Of speculation.
Miss BERTHE Backus, assistant super
intendent of schools in charge of the
character education experiment, is
reported to be a probable choice if
Congress fails to make an appropria-
tion to continue the work for another
year. The appropriation of $87,540
was stricken from the budget by the
House, but officials Of the school sys-
tenn expect the Senate to restore the
sum at the insistence of Senator
Copeland, who fathered the expert
naent here
{ John Paul Collins, now assistant
principal at Eastern High School, has
also been mentioned as possible
selection if the place does not go to
Miss Backus.
If Miss Backus should be appointed
she will become the first woman to
head senior high school here.

piece Of silvery tinsel fell across a
toy train track and started a fire
which spread through the lower floor
of their home. the family Of w. A.
Chappelear, BOT Seventeenth street

friends and relatives in various sec
tions of the city.
The fire started late yesterday. as
members of the family were seated
around the Christmas tree in an
inclosed rear porch.
Falling across the toy track, the
tinsel caused a short-circuit and be-
came ignited. Flames spread to
decorative cotton around the base of
the tree. In a few seconds the tree
and the porch furnishings were
ablaZe.
A son, James, "a, was burned on
the hand when he tried to drag the
burning tree outside.
Whipped by winds, the fire swept
the entire first floor Of the two-story
brick dwelling, causing $4,000 dam
age, and spread to the houses at 805
and 800 Seventeenth street, causing
slight damage.
With the exception of James, all
occupants of the house, including
three small children, escaped un-
injured. A 6-year-old canary, Pete,
was burned.
Fearing damage to the entire row of
buildings. neighbors rushed a 76-year-
old bedridden woman, Mrs. Margaret
Hanna, 801 Seventeenth street, to a
house in the next block for safety.
Members of the family at home
when the fire broke out were Mrs.
Chappelear, her sons, James and

Jane, 9, and Adrienne, 2; and the wife
of James Chappelear and her 4-year-

ences were held by Government Off
cials, and the Fine Arts Commission

Two large dummy" pylons of wood
and cloth were erected at Fourteenth
street and Constitution avenue to
show Federal officials how the pro-
posed ornaments would look. They
were put up on the concrete bases
already in place. After several weeks,
however, they were torn down.
The Industrial Fireproofng Co. had
