0ne.Way Streets
Praised in Report
OF Research Board
& y
Fewer Accidents and
Better Signaling
:. Are Cited

Objections of Washingtonians to
one-way streets were met today and
overruled by scientific Investigations
Of the Highway Research Board
The investigators reported increased
capacity and speed, fewer accidents
and better progressive signaling for
streets converted to one-way trifnc
However, it was reported that on
streets where the traffic is reversed
morning and evening there was a
marked increase in accidents.
Reporting at the 18th ANNUAL
meeting in the National Academy
of Sciences Building, the investi-
eating committee said its findings
showed better than so per cent re-
duction in accidents and more than
double the speed on one-way streets.
"One-way streets, where intelli-
gently designated, appear to have
met with general approval. En-
phasis is placed on the necessity for
abundance of signs of proper size
and design and at proper locations
to tell the public what is wanted.
With these conditions met, the regu-
lation is found to be practically
self enforcing" the report sad.
While drivers in the wide open
spaces" allow good margins for
passing, those in hill country where
roads are winding cut out of line
and back with comparative small
safety margins, study of this
phase of traffic revealed. The for
mer have longer range of vision,
while the latter must take quick
opportunity before another curve
Is presented. From six to 20 seconds
were timed as the allowance limits
for passing. At so miles an hour,
80 per cent of the drivers took 1900
feet to get past the car ahead.
An adequate analysis of the be-
havior of vehicles involved in pass
ing maneuvers requires study not
only of those vehicles, but also of
the relations of those vehicles to
all the other units of the traffic
stream, the board was told. De-
termination of practices in indi-
vidual passings is of little signifi-
canoe until it is known how fire.
quently and in what manner pass
ings normally occur on various
classes of highways. The committee
studies will be continued in an ef-
fort to get more concrete results.
A dinner for the group will be
held at Z pm. tonight in the Ra-
leigh Hotel.

North Capitol Citizens Fail
to Ask Vote on Three
Nominees, However.

Appointment of bona f1de resi-
dent" Of the District for the position
of District Commissioner to be vacated
by Commissioner George E. Allen was
urged on President Roosevelt by the
North Capitol Citizens Association at
its meeting last night.
C. j. MacMurray's original resolu-
ton asked that the President submit
three names for the post to the Dis
trict, and that the residents vote on
them. However, members OF the group
pointed out that this would be i'm
possible under the present setup,
and that the Senate would hardly be
in a position to confirm a nomination
by District residents.
The association decried speeding by
automobiles and street cars on North
Capitol street, and members asked that

At SO, He's
Never SLEPT
BY JOHN ID. yENABLE

Trenten-(P)- Something of a
Rip Van Wrinkle in reverse, Albert
E. Herpin maintains he has never
slept a wink in his 1ife-and he
is sc years old.
He can't give a scientific eX-
PLANTATION for it, but he believes an
injury to his mother shortly be-
fore he was born might have
caused the condition. He's known
as Trenton's 'sleepless wonder"
No sleep doesn't mean that Her
pin gets no rest. AS he explains it,
he rests sitting up in chair while
putting ntermittently on a pipe.
His Hearts Against 1t
II can't shut my eyes more than
a few moments at a time without
becoming nauseated," Herpin said,
land can't lie down because it
makes me feel like my heart will
stop"
Bald except for fringe of gray,
Herpin is erect and alert for all
his years. His wants are simple,
tea and buns being the chief diet
airy items.
Incredulous persons annoy Her
pin.
why should I try to deceive
anyone?" he asked. 81 haven't got
anything and I've never tried to
make anything out of my condi-
ton. I've had offers to appear in
circuses and such, even had an Of
fer to appear at the Chicago
Worlds Fair, but always turned
them down."
One Piece Missing
Herpin lives alone in a home
made howell which he calls "The
Nightmare" It is conglomer-
alton of fence sections, peach bas-
kets, odd planks and what not.
Occasionally pieces of furniture
are scattered here and there but
one traditional piece is missing:
He doesn't own a bed.
Herpin has one favorite story.
It's about the time in 1906 when
four doctors decided to find out if
his sleeplessness was hoax.
"The experiment was going
along fine" he said, until the
doctors started falling asleep"

pro football to stop on a runback.
Many of the smackers he spilled
were the most surprised of men.
That long, lean guy looks easy to
stop.
But Cuff has a leg power, it
seems, which is completely decep-
tive. In a game of vast brogans,
he wears a 9 football boot that is
too big for him. His legs make up
most cf his 100 pounds, yet those
pistonlike thighs, if anything,
look little too long for a man of
feet l. And Cuff is far from brio
a-brac above the belt. The Giants
insist that he added up as the No.
rookie wingback of 1887.
Earned A Nickname
Cuff occasionally displays a
touch of drollness. Once he over
slept a skull practice session and
blandly informed Steve Owen that
he was late because the miniature
Mrs. Cuff had browbeaten him in
to washing the dishes. Even Owen
threw up his hands at that one
and Cuff has been "Henpeck"
since.
Cuff was the horse of the Mar
quette backfield of 1896. That set
of carriers, it becomes more OBJ
vious as time goes by, was one of
the most elusive backfields in
football history, a set of sleight of
hand performers who played ring
around the rosey with an OPPOSE
ton, sitting through the line with
disheartening directness. On de-
Tense Cuff was up to his ears in
tackle most of the time. On offense
| he was busy taking them away so
the Guepes and Buivid could gal
lop.
Why Murray Aged
| 1t was a gay set of caballeros
who played with great zest, taking
relish in crossing up the bench and
in making the crossup click. Cuff
chuckles as he recalls how Art
| Guepe, with the game hanging in
the balance, would work out an
offensive problem, deciphering
with scientific calm just why No.
/ II had been a bust and trying it
| right over again with orders to
move that end-but really move
i him.
The bench meanwhile would be
tearing it's collective hair and Cuff
and the Guepes were not above
snickering at the frantic scene on
| the sideline. 1t was colossal cocki-
ness, considering that Red Dunn,
one of the greatest quarterbacks
in pro history, was the strategist
of the bench staff. It didn't make
Frank Murray any younger, eth
| er.
Began As A Freak
/ The Cuff who could take them
away at Marquette was no acct
dent. He was drafted from the
eighth grade to kick off for the
high school team at Redwood
Falls, Mimi, performing with his
left foot, because of an injury to
the right. Eventually Redwood
Falls had an oddity who kicked
with his Left, punted with his right
galloped on offense and played de-
fensive tackle in the clutch. Even
then, Cuff was booting field goals,
but never really got down to work
on that specially until he joined
the Giants.

capsule:

harder than he hits you and he's
