Many Protesting
New B. & O. Plan To
Abolish Service
Damascus, Frederick Residents
And Business Men Hit Pro-
pOsal For Route

A large number of Frederick, Da-
mascus, Mt. Airy and Ridgeville resi-
dents and business men have protested
to the Public Service Commission on
the proposal of the B. & o. Railroad
to effect change between Baltimore
and Frederick.
The change, the railroad announced
a week ago, would mean elimination
on December / of two daily trains to
Frederick and way stations.
Since then approximately q indivi-
viduals have written letters protest
ing the proposed change, and Sc have
signed petitions requesting the COM
mission to deny the railroad permits
sion to withdraw the trains.
A hearing in the matter, originally
set for this week, was postponed IN
til January to give complainants
additional time to prepare their case
The railroad agreed to continue serv-
ice pending the hearings.
Other protests on the abandonment
of the Frederick service came from
the following:
E. A. Talbot, Ellicott City.
Monrovia Supply Company, Monro-
via.
E. Vican, Henryton.
Sabaco Pump Company, Baltimore
Ruth e. Taylor, school teacher, AL
berton.
Those opposing the abandonment
Of the Brunswick Washington service
included r. M. Cory, veterinary sur
geon Of Tacoma Park, who said he
used the trains to commute daily to
Baltimore; Clarence L. Ayton, Of
Gaithersburg, and Mrs. Marie K
Hudson, of Washington Grove. The
last two said they and others used the
trains daily to get to their jobs.

HERE I'm MONTGOMERY we
have q number of candidates already
in the field and actively campaigning
in personal way. The majority
are youngsters seeking the hmelight
for the first time and untouched by
the bitterness of political th-drops.
Robert Peter, popular and serious In
his attitude toward government, is a
strong contender for the State Sen
ate. He will undoubtedly have the
support of the main branch OF the
Democratic party in Montgomery
as well as the good wishes of the
majority of the upper county indie
pendents. Joe Cantrell, with term
in the House behind him, is good
campaigner and will get a lot OF
down-county votes If he remains IN
the race.

Basketball Gives
Fans Opportunity
To Show Interest
Three Rockville Teams WIN
Schedule Games; New
1S0-Lb. Class

The Rockville Athletic Association
promises to the sports fans Of Rock
vile and Montgomery County an ever
more eventful basketball season fol-
1879 than those of the past. To do
this they have high mark to shoot
at-last year the boys unlimited five
played total of 33 games and came
out victors in. 81 of these tilts-not in
the last three years have they been
beaten by an out-of-W Washington team
the girls last year captured the
Washington A. A. U. Tournament Gun
and were downed on very few occas-
ions during the season.
This year new attraction has been
added--a 100 Id. team to furnish pre-
liminary games for the feature tits.
Although no schedule has been COM
piled, syet, the local squad expects
to travel to, and have return games
with, Hagerstown, Annapolis, War
renton, Va, Carlisle, Pa, Fredericks-
burg, Va, besides several of the
classier Washington aggregations.
The only thing that Rockville bas-
ketball lacks is patronage, and if the
public will give it a chance, the man.
agement promises to give a show on
every night scheduled that will be
worth far more than the two-bits
which is required on the line before
witnessing the competition. The
management further promises that
every game will be played as sched-
uled and on time.
Fred Lanier, one of the foremost
boosters of basketball in Rockville,
has entered into the sports of this
town new idea; junior athletic
association basketball quint.
For several years Lanier has been
formulating in his mind the idea of
team to furnish material for the
unlimited team, of which he is an out
standing member.
The team will be limited to boys
weighing 1870 lbs. or less and will be
entered in the District A. A. u.
Tournament next Spring.
Bob Lee, member of last years
Richard Montgomery High squad;
Johnny Prince, Tennessee high school
star; Dick Duvall, former high school
player; Slack Nicholson, one time
Prep School basketeer; and Bob Ken
dali, Bob Slater, Dick Swartzback,
Norman Anders, Jack Lee and Press
Weaver and several other high school
players are among those who will vie
for positions on the quint. Il
Any team Of the 100 ID. class wish
ing to book games with this team
please write to Tom Slater, Rockville,
Md, or cali Rockville sew.

10 Months Old Baby
Swallows Safety Pin

Little 10 months-old Billy Jewell,
son of Mr.. and Mrs. J. Leonard jew
ell, of Glen Echo Heights, swallowed
safety pin Sunday morning. He
was rushed to the Episcopal Eye, Ear
and Throat Hospital, and an X-ray
was taken disclosing the pin lodged
in his appendix.
Later he was transferred to the
Children's Hospital, and operated on
to remove the pin. He is now doing
nicely after this near serious mishap

AS WE SEE 1T
BY MoNTCo

REPUBLICAN LEADERS content
themselves with marking time while
the Democrats, as usual, are doing
their darnedest to stir up trouble
over the approaching gubernatorial
and senatorial contests. The rank
and file Of the COP. constituency,
if left to themselves, would insist
that Gov. Harry w. Nice announce
as a candidate against Sen. Tydings.
They think Nice hasn't a chance to
be Governor again, even though
Mayor jackson finds Herb O'Conor,
Lansdale Sasscer or some other fore
most Democrat at his throat. And
they are probably right. It is no
secret that Harry has lost good
deal of support. While perhaps Nice
is not directdly to blame, he will
suffer from the inefficiency of his
appointes. Bad roads can lick any
administration.

PEOPLE HEREABOUTS are anx-

to do. ALI kinds of rumors are
extant. Some have him running for

say he would like to be State Sena-

have him running for reelection as
States Attorney. Jim is capable,
ambitious-but he is in no hurry to

COUNTY REPUBLICANS, like
the State leaders, are playing a
waiting game. They are, it Us true,
figuring hard on their best bet for
the judgeship and for men to keep
the control of the courthouse. In
the next campaign they will center
the battle ON certain key positions,
backing the man rather than the
ticket. In event of weakness on the
part of any Democratic wheel-horses,
they will capitalize. They have cap
able men, particularly among the
members of the county bar. pt

determine how to get the bat ex-
actly to the coincident space.
What determines these judg-
ments? There probably is no part
of the nervous system, except the
organ Of reason, which is not in
volved. There is no reason to it.
In the first place, you have to be
able to stand up, to balance your
self in space. This means that the
three little canals in the ear, which
are filled with a very sensitive
fluid, must respond so accurately
that you can tell even with your
eyes shut whether you are stand
ing upright or lying down, or
leaning to the left or right. They
also, you see, allow your body to
make Judgment as to whether and
how far it is leaning forward or
backward. These canals send
nerve fbers to the cerebelium. The
eyes have to be able to judge dis
lance, and they help in a way to
keep the body in space. The eyes
also send fibers to the cerebellum
Now it so happens that if you
have normal nervous system, you
are able to shut your eyes and ex-
tend your hand and forefnger, and
at a command touch the tip OF
your nose with the end of your
forefinger. To do this depends on
muscle sense, whether your mus
cles are tensed, whether the arm is
Strengthened or bent. Did you
ever think that it is quite remark
able that you can tell whether
YOUR arm is straight or bent, and
exactly how much bent? From the
muscles and points which deter
mine this Judgment, nerve fibers
go to the cerebellum.
We are getting to see that the
cerebellum is a pretty important
kind Of an organ. 1t doesn't &c
any thinking for us, but it does
all those automatic things which
carry us through these conplicat-
ed processes.
When all the fbers from the or
gan of equilibrium, and the eyes
and the muscles get to the cere-
bellun, their sensations are there
added up, as il. a clearing mouse
so that you can perform the mar
velous feat of placing the Dat ex'
