Capital Loan Urged
To Expand Districts
School Facilities
Southeast Citizens
Association Hits Lack
OF Funds for Section

A resolution calling for a capital
loan to build schools in the District
was adopted last night at meeting
of the Southeast Washington Cit
liens Association at Friendship
House, GIG D street Sc.
The resolution was introduced by
Vernis Absher, who bitterly con-
demned school conditions in the
Southeast section of the city. He
said he believed the rapid growth of
that area was running ahead OF
the School Board"
Mr.. Absher charged that in a
number of cases housing develop
ments had materialized without any
provision being made for school
facilities. AS for schools near where
the meeting was being held, Sixth
and D streets, he said many of the
items were getting in bad condi-
ton"
I'VE should not tolerate. for in
stance" he said, the conditions that
exist at the Wallach School or at
f1llle JulllOT nigh OC1lOOl.
Hits Lack of Funds.
After pointing to the growth of
the community and the overcrowded
schools, the resolution expressed dis
satisfaction with the limited amount
proposed for appropriations for
schools in the Southeast section. In
asking for a capital loan, Mr.. Alb
sher argued that current revenue
would not be sufficient to meet
school needs
The meeting also passed motion
supporting Adelbert w. Lee for the
School Board. A committee of
three, consisting of F. C. Calcote,
chairman; Woodrow Miller and D.
w. Bruce, was selected to discuss
the appointment with Chief Justice
Alfred A. Wheat.
Traffic Study Asked.
A motion was passed urging that
the traffic lights at Pennsylvania
avenue and Seventh street S. e. be
adjusted to allow 40 seconds for
crossing the Avenue instead of the
alleged 20 seconds, which 1t was
charged was insufficient. A motion
presented by Orrin Davy calling for
a study by traffic authorities of con-
ditions at Eleventh street and the
Avenue was also passed.
Other motions passed at the
lengthy meeting included a recon-
mendation that arrows at street car
loading platforms be retained and
that representative of the Com
munity Chest be invited to address
the next meeting of the association.
A. j. Driscoll, member of the Board
Of Public Welfare, spoke briefly.
William Maio, president of the
group, presided.

which will meet Army in track and
base ball here Saturday, while the
Midshipman lacrosse. tennis and
golf teams are at West Point for
annual battles. has spaced its home
events so that both may be seer
in their entirety.
The track meet, in which Army
unbeaten in two years. will be the
favorite, will be held in Thompson
Stadium at 10 am. and the ball
game, which appears to be a toss
up, will be staged on Lawrence
Field at 2:30
This will allow ample time be-
tween action for an unhurried
luncheon.
The lacrosse match at West
Point should be thriller, with
Navy probably rating a slight edge,
and the golf and tennis teams ap-
pear well matched.
1t is unlikely that either will win
more than three events and the
fight for that margin should be
keen.
A feature of the track meet will
be the meeting in the half mile of
the De Latour brothers, Lloyd OF
Navy and Frank of Army. both of
whom are capable of doing at least
1:54.

Capture 9 Ti|ts
Out Of 12After
Loss Streak
Tackle Leaders Next:
WosdeIl Off to Bio
Stort as Dodger
BY JUDSON BAILEY,
Associated Press Sports Writer.

Without fanfare or fireworks the
New York Yankees have arrived
back in the first division of the
American League and apparently
have found finally the trail that
can lead to their coveted fifth con-
secutive world championship.
The Yanks humbled the WASH
ington Senators, 1874 and 81, in a
double-header Yesterday to attain
six victories in their last seven
games-in fact. 9 victories in IL
games since that demoralizing g.
game losing streak.
Today New York is only 6ia games
out of first place and easily can be
riding the crest before the Fourth
of July. The Yanks will play three
games with the league-leading Bos-
ton Red Sox tomorrow and Friday
and this series will determine
whether the advance is to be swift
or slow.
Red Sox Tighten Grip.
The Red Sox frightened their hold
on first place, at least temporarily by
beating the Philadelphia Athletics,
Al, in a night game after the Sec
ond-place Cleveland Indians had
lost to Detroit. 8-5.
Boston got of its IA hits in the
last two frames to break IL dead
lock that Dennis Galehouse and
Johnny Babich had pitched at each
other. Good relief pitching by AL
Benton enabled the Tigers to trim
the Indians after Cleveland jumped
on Hal Newhouser for four runs in
the third. Cleveland used five
pitchers.
The Yankees leap from sixth to
fourth place was made possible by
the Chicago White Sox dropping
both ends of doubleheader to the
st. Louis Browns, 1919 and Us.
Both games were free hitting affairs
with the two teams rolling up so
hits, including seven home runs.
during the afternoon. George Nc
Quinn got two of the homers to help
win the first game for Vernon Ken
nedy.
The Cincinnati Reds, who have
cause to remember their last World
Series with the Bombers, dropped a
So decision to Pittsburgh, their
first loss to the Pirates this year,
and slumped substantially into Sec
ond place in the National League.
Max Butcher held the Reds to five
hits.
Cardinals Blank Bruins.
The Chicago Cubs, who likewise
still have memories Of the Yanks,
were shut out by the St. Louis
