While some future world cham
pionship prizefght enthralls crowd
of 10000 in the central drill hall, all
the units of the District National
Guard, undisturbed by the roar of
the crowd. will be able to carry on
as usual in the same building and
even hold target practice in the
basement, although doubtless the
Guardsmen will have one ear cooked
for news of the fight.
This picture was painted yester-
day at the first joint meeting of
the season of the National Capital
Planning Commission and the Ma
tional Commission of Fine Arts, as
both commissions set their stamp
of approval on preliminary plans
for a new District National Guard
armory which will combine effec-
lively military with community use.
AS presented by the Office of the
municipal architect and approved by
the commissioners. plans for the
new armory, which Congress au-
thorized to be placed in the area
bounded by Nineteenth, Twenty
second and B streets Sc. and East
Capitol street. at cost of $2,750 900,
shape up as follows:
A central drill hall with union
station" roof will be surrounded on
all four sides by the headquarters of
the various Guard units. One door
only will enter the drill hall from
each headquarters and two en-
frances from the street will permit
the public to occupy the drill hall
without passing in any way through
the National Guards quarters.
10000 Square Feet in Hall.
The drill hall is to contain $50 by
200 feet of clear space Set back
from this will be galleries on all four
sides, about so feet wide. 1t will be
possible to play two softball games
at one time without interfering with
one another. The floor of the drill
hall will be equipped with remov-
able seating arrangements to handle
5000 persons. The galleries will
have capacity of 1000 persons. BY
use of mobile stages and seats, the
drill hall will be capable of use for
most anything from a convention to
cavalry charge.
On the north side of the building,
separated by a wall with only one
entrance, will be the Offices of Gen.
Albert Cox, commandant of the Ma
tional Guard, and the entire general
headquarters of washington S
army" On the east will be the
headquarters of l21st Engineers. On
the south will be headquarters of
the 260th Anti-Aircraft Coast Artil-
lery, and on the west will be head
quarters of special troops and mill
tary police of the 29th Division and

Bondy Takes Post
AsD. Director
OF Public Welfare
Finishes His Work
In Relief Service
Of Red Cross

Robert E. Bondy today officially
assumed his duties as District di-
rector of public welfare after closing
out the last of his responsibilities
as national director of the disaster
relief service of the American Red
Cross.
His appointment was announced
by the Commissioners last month,
and although he has been busy
finishing his work with the Red
Cross, he has devoted considerable
time to the District post since then.
In the last few weeks he has as
sisted the Board of Public Welfare
in preparation of its estimates for
the next fiscal year for the long
list of welfare agencies and serv-
ices and the penal institutions.
He also aided the Welfare Board
in its selection of three candidates
for key positions under the board,
since appointed by the Commits
sioners. These were Otto Cass, the
new director of public assistance;
Mrs. Helen Weir Martin. who has
just been named assistant director
of public assistance, and Claude o.
Botkin, to be the new superin-
tendent of the District Reformatory
at Lorton, Va.
In the 1871 budget requests Mr..
Bondy, Mr.. Cass and the Welfare
Board have proposed a number of
changes in policies, while proposing
an increase in the total relief out
lay by the District from $l,700 900
to s2,007 200 In asking for an in
crease in the staff of case workers
he said he believed the result would
permit dropping of some 400 cases
as ineligible. with a saving of be-
tween sl55 900 to s18O,OOO a year.
He also urged an increase in the
maximum amounts which might be
granted relief clients to bring the
Districts levels more in line with
the Federal social security program

Herbert Evans, Vice President of Consumer Distrib-

of discussing a proposed management contract for

cooperative.
Mr.. Evans advised the commi ttee that Robert E.

nation in order that he might return to MINNEAPOLIS
to manage store owned by his late father. He
expressed his regret at losing Mr.. Jacobsen's
services and termed him ideal man for the job
to which he had been assigned. This feeling was
entertained by the entire Committee.
Mr.. Jacobsen stated that his work in Greenbelt
constituted the greatest experience Of his life
and 1t only with the greatest reluctance that
he decided his course.
Mr.. Evans suggested the advisability Of pro-
mot1ng su1o Laa1so, manager of the food store

and registered its unanimous approval.
The balance Of the meeting was devoted to dis

t1on of management contract was deferred until

A windup of the fishing contest
In Washington will be held today
when the Washington Chapter Of
the Izaak Walton League conducts
fish-o tournament at the Lincoln
Memorial Rejecting Pool. The
tournament will start at 9 a. m.
Fish-o is a game played by fisher
men in which accurate casting is
the main requisite. It is similar
to tournament casting except that
actual fishing tackle is used instead
OF tournament tackle. Rods, reels
and lines are much stronger as used
In actual fishing than in tourna-
ment work, and the game OF fish-o
was invented about a year ago to
give experienced fishermen a chance
and to place less of premium on
light, fancy tackle.
The game is played by individuals
and fve-man teams who cast from
various positions at floating rings in
the water. Three shots are taken
at each target with corresponding
points awarded for accuracy on the
first, second or third cast.
Teams from Baltimore. Hapers.
town, Alexandria and other nearby
communities are entered, and mer-
chandise prizes valued at $3.50 will
be awarded. Post entries will be
accepted by the Izaak Walton Lea.
