GREENVILLE. N. c., April II (Pl.-
Leaders in a movement here to march
on the capitol" in the interest of a
special legislative session to enact to-
bacco control laws sought today to en-
list the cooperation Of other tobacco
sections.
A mass meeting Of 500 members Of
the Pitt County Farm Bureau decided
to send delegations to Raleigh next
Tuesday in an effort to persuade Gov.
Ehringhaus to call special session,
and to ask other counties to join the
movement.
The farmers requested that local
stores close for the day to permit busi-
ness men to Join in the trip to the
capitol. A request was made for a
thousand automobiles for the trip.

until the driveway intersects with K
street.
It is at K street that the inbound
motorist will encounter the first traf-
flc light. 1t is not installed yet, but
soon will be. This traffic light. since
it will be partly on District and partly
on United States Government prop
erty, will be paid for Jointly by the
two governments.
II the motorist elects to turn left
on K street, he leaves the new park
way drive and confronts the usual run
of traffic. If he continues across K
street, the parkway Is entered again
and he may proceed southwark to any
number of traffic lanes entering the
city proper-down to the Monument
Grounds.
Capt. n. C. Whitehurst, director of
highways in the District, was asked
If the city planned to take care of
any overflow from the new driveway
by widening Twenty-second street
south from P street.
"Street widening is not a very popu-
lar feature-especially in the residen-
tial sections" Capt Whitehurst re-
piled. There has been some talk of
widening TweEty-second street, south
from P street-and there was even
a plan proposed. But that will have
to be revamped now. in view of the
near-completion of the new Chevy
Chase-Potomac Park driveway. In
so far as the District is concerned, We
want to wait and see what effect the
new driveway win have on traffic"
This much Is known: Where the
old riding academy stands at the
southwest corner Of Twenty-second
and P street. there will be gas sta
ton.
There have been reports that the
Government would purchase the old
riding academy property and convert
it into a small parkway, to serve as
an exit from the Chevy Chase
Potomac Park driveway. With that
arterial widening, traffic could be more
easily shunted down Twenty-second
street in the busy morning hours-a
one-way flow-and started again
northward In the afternoon on a one
way system home. With one of the

When that little patch of pavement
spanning the creek is completed,
Washington will have one of the

world.
In less than a month, southbound
motorists from the Chevy Chase

Of riding downtown through veritable

There is. perhaps, no city in the

Traffic Director Van Duzer says:
This new driveway is going to be a
wonderful outlet for Connecticut

crossings. 1t means q straight shot
at the heart Of the city. The only
thing I'm afraid of is that it might

virtually accusing the Black commit
tee of being the guilty party in the

"Of course, every one knows this to

There is one odd limitation on the
use Of the new driveway. 1t is a
through route only during the day
time. This is because the National
Geological Park stands in the way,
and the gates to the Zoo are closed
each night at sundown.
That means that the new Chevy
Chase-Potomac Park driveway may
be used as a 24-hour route only from
Cathedral avenue downtown.
AS a matter of fact, the traffic ex-
perts of Washington feel that the
average motorist will enter the new

merely as a bride path. Then other

For years the st. Mary's Celtics
have had their own way on Alex
andria diamonds, but today a
group of youngsters and a couple
of old-timers, under the direction
Of Gene Zimmerman, have formed
q team that is challenging the Gel
tics supremacy.
The team is none other than
the Kendrick Beer A. c., which
has bowled over 10 worthy op.

which is casting around for fur

Some Of the players are Fred Ham

Fred Burrell, Les Scott and, OF

On July 5 they play another
strong foe, the Eastport A. c.,

When we asked Jack Tulloch,
Alexandria's foremost sports au.
thority, who would emerge victo-
rious if the Beermen and the Gel
tics collided. he said:
although the Beermen are
improving in every game. I'm
forced to lay my dough on the
CeIticS. The CelticS have too
much experience under their
belts"
Never Beaten at Home
The Celtics have not tasted a
defeat on their home field this
season, winning IA straight games.
Lynchburg is the only team to
defeat the Celtics the current sea-
son and they accomplished the
feat twice at Lynchburg.
Undoubtedly, st. Mary'S CelticS
possess one Of the strongest teams
in this section.
They were one of the few teams
that set the powerful George
Washington University nine down
this year.
Here are the sturdy players who
comprise the renowned Celtics:
Elicit Cabell, Art Ludlow, Arch
Benson, Joe Hamilton, Art Lacey,
Ollie Printz, Woody Godfrey, Bill
Langford, "Biff" Mccarthy and
Russ Kidwell. Mccarthy is the

Once in baseball, always in
baseball, so goes the old saying.
At least it's Ralph HarrieS'
slant, who finds he cannot get
away from the game, try as he
might.
Ralph, to introduce the gentle.
man to those who are not famil.
lar with his record, is coach Of
the Colony Radio Peewees, en-
tered in the Columbian League.
Formerly Harries coached and
handled athletics in Takoma
Park as Supervisor of Parks and
Fairgrounds in the Takoma, Md.
section.
Not To Be
When he left that position to
enter the radio field, Harries fig
ured his coaching days were over.
But it was not long before his
firm decided to sponsor a team
in the Columbian League.
The outcome found Harries be-
ing assigned" as coach-after
working hours of course, but
coach just the same.
Ralph, naturally enthusiastic in
everything he's ever attempted,
believes the Colony team will be
heard from in the Columbian
League.

Newton A. c. third, 16 to 10.
The Chillum Heights Insects beat

Tommy Griffith. shortstop, is
Harries' field captain. Ed Bar
