Westinghouse have been accus-
toned through the years to lay
away their winter woolens and
step unhesitatingly into pristine
flannels on the day the Shoreham
Hotel manager opens his Shore
ham Terrace.
Mayhaps we have been tricked
into believing this way, but &C
cording to the announcement, one
can be definitely sure that sum-
mer has come to the Nations
Capital when the Shoreham Hotel
manager, etc, ETC., etc.
Be that as it may, the Shore
ham Terrace is slated to open
on June Exactly a score of
days to the hour befor" our ma

says summer is officially here,
or anywhere else for that matter.
AS for our woolens, they have
been sulking in seldom-used bu-
reau drawers for, 10, these many
weeks sans the sanction of the
Shoreham Hotel manager, L,
Gardner Moore, who on next
Monday will open his Shoreham
Terrace. =.
Among the cosier downtown
spots We'll have to list George
Sachlis' pert little Show Boat,
which sports a five-piece band
and boasts one of the better bar
tenders in Paul Pope.
Paul, in one of his rasher mo-
ments, promised to dive through
one or more of the several cute
little portfolios which dot his
domain if we could name a drink
he couldn't mix. He has us think
ing hard.
Up at Dude Ranch, you'll find a

She does a high kick number
that is something to get out of
the way of and a slave dance
that is something to look at
and run up and tell her about

First swimming fatality of the
season came yesterday as Jack
Robbie, IS, died in the Washington
Golf and Country Club pool in
nearby Virginia.
Son of Mrs. Ethyle Keen Robbie,
of Cherrydale, Va, young Robbie
collapsed as he attempted to climb
from the water. and was dead
when he was pulled out by a life
guard.
With two neighbors, the boy had
run a mile to the pool and plunged

Woman Faces S. Fine
On Each Of 81 Charges

GREENWICH, Conn, May 30.
Mrs. Maria J. Braught, who has
engaged in a long battle with local
and State boards of education for
a year, has been fined SIS on each
of 81 charges in town court.
The specific charge against Mrs.
Braught was that she had failed
to send two of her children to
school. Her counsel, Henry Wise,
of Boston, announced he would
appeal to Common Pleas Court,
posting the 5000 bond required.

IT'S rumored this Is Ursula S
last appearance in this country.
She is slated to sail for Europe at
the end of her Dude Ranch en-
gagement for the purposes Of
marrying count. She will not
reveal the counts name, probably
because she's afraid we'll print it..
We won't.
Also at the Ranch this week Is

Difference to the crowds which
have been nightly making this
spot an outlet for their dancy
feelings. Lee Fields orchestra
and Frank Shannon's vocalS are
in a large way responsible for the
popularity of this ideally located
resort, according to this reporter
who points with pride to the fact
that he's been there and left there
in person.
We have a personal reason for
being glad at the news that the
Powhatan Roof has postponed its
opening until next Tuesday. The
information reached us shortly
after we had consigned to the
mails a regretful letter to the et'
feet that a previous engagement
made it impossible for us to at
tend the inaugural which was
originally scheduled for last night:
Manager Harnett puts forward
as a reason for the postponement
the fact that a detailed chart from
the Weather Bureau shows it will
be cold until Sunday. Probably a
dodge because Manager Harnett
thinks this department will be
among those present Tuesday
night. Manager Harnett is cor
rect. And we take this opportunity
of publicly commencing him for
honoring a request we did not
make but would have liked to.
The postponement also gives
Band Leader Pete Macias three
more days to rest up from his vaca-
ton down the Potomac.

Flashing a rhythm peculiarly in
digenous to Harlem and its en-
virons, Pete Moss and his 14-piece
orchestra furnish a musical back
ground for one of the smootheSt
and zippiest floor shows to be seen
on a local floor.

was important, therefore, that
everything liable to be damaged
by frost should be stored in French
Den.
Because Of the Importance Of the
work to be done, the hunters did
not go far. But water game
abounded. and Moko was never
left without provisions. Snipe,
ducks and teal gave Doniphan the
chance to make some fine bags.
However. Gordon worried what

anxious to save the munitions.
Therefore, he warned Doniphan to

Its in the interest Of our fu-
ture," he said to him.
quite right" answered Doni-
phan. But we also have to be
sparing of our canned goods. We'd
be sorry not to have them if we
ever had the means of leaving the
island"
Leaving the island!" exclaimed
Gordon. "Can we construct boat
that would hold at Sea?"
And why not, Gordon, if
there's a continent in the neigh,
borhood? In that case, I'm not
anxious to die here as the French.
man did"
IAN right" said Gordon. But
before thinking of leaving we
must get used to the idea that
perhaps we'll be forced to live
here for years and years"
That's Gordon all right" cried
Doniphan. I'm sure you'd be de-
lighted to found a colony"
Certainly, if we can't do any
thing else!"
well, Gordon, I don't think
you'll get many followers of that
idea, not even your good friend
Briant!"

you, Doniphan, that you are not
fair to Briant. He's a good COM

answered Doniphan in a sarcastic
tone. "Briant has all the qualities
He's hero!"
"No, Doniphan, he has his
faults like all of us. But your feel
ing against him might cause a
row which would make our Situa-
ton worse than it is! Briant is
well thought Of by all Of us ="
ooh! AL Of uS!"

"Or at least most Of us. I don't
know why Wilcox, Cross, Webb
and you will not hear anything
from him! I'm telling you this, by
the way, Doniphan, and I'm sure
that you'll think about it,"
cts already thought, Gordon"
Gordon saw that the proud boy
was little disposed to take his ad-
vice, a fact which caused him
some uneasiness as he could fore
see serious trouble.
The only thing now left to do
after the raft was unloaded was
to break up the frame and the
platform. The beams and the
planks could be used In French
Den.
Unfortunately, all the materials
could not be stored in the cave,
and, if it proved impossible to
make it larger, they would have
to construct a shelter to cover the
bales in bad weather. Meantime,

SHAKE-UP OF REDS
PLANNED BY GILES
New General Manager Aims
to Increase Ball Clubs
Batting Power.
Ey the Associated Press.

Ey the Associated Press.
n YEW YORK, October 3l-War-
N rem Giles, who will assume Of
" fee as vice president and gen.
4 eral manager of the Cincin-
natl Reds tomorrow. says he will start
farm system" for the Reds, buy
or barter one regular and one utility
infielder, and concentrate on trying to
increase the teams batting power.
Giles also intimated he would trade
Inf1elder Tommy Thevenow and Out
fielder Babe Herman.
THE Reds are a young team and
should naturally be better next year,
but we need batting power badly and
we'll trade anybody to get it," he
said.
The Reds finished fifth in the Ma
tional League last season. but were
next to last in batting power with
club average of .272.
Giles figures that Phil Weintraub,
former Giant player obtained by the
Reds in deal with the Cardinals,
will help the Cincinnati batting punch.
"Weintraub is one of the three best
hitters I have ever had on my clubs"
Giles said. I think he has a chance
to be great player"
The new Cincinnati boss is worried
over the possibility Of losing Billy
Myers, regular shortstop. Myers I'M
derwent an operation late last season
and Giles is doubtful that he will
be ready when the new season starts.
