Repair Work Is Begun
On Potomac BRIDGE

BRUNSWICK, Md, June 25.-
Preliminary work on approximately
$4,000 worth of repairs to the Po-
tomac River bridge here was started
today as State Roads Commission
workers put finishing touches on a
temporary ferry service.
Under an agreement between the
commission and Brunswick author
tiles, the State provided ferry boat
and necessary equipment, and the
town put up the funds to operate the
boat for 80 days while the bridge is
closed to traffic.
Engineers said closing of the
bridge, expected within few days,
would be co-ordinated with the
opening of the ferry service.
Brunswick merchants requested
installation of the ferry on grounds
a third of their business came from
Virginia residents just across the
river. If the bridge were closed, they
contended, they might-in 80 days
lose most of the Virginia trade.
The ferry will be fiat-bottomed
craft, powered by an outboard motor
and guided by cross-river cable. 1t
will carry passengers only.
When work on the bridge is COM
pleted, engineers said, the spans
load capacity will be increased from
4 to 10 tons.

Blaine Rideout pulls another "accl-
dent" when he matches strides with
Glenn Cunningham and Chuck
Fenske here Friday, Philadelphians
are in for a corking mile race, in the
opinion of Lawson Robertson.
The director of the third annual
Penn A. c. track meet recalled that
the Texans fast first quarter made

New York last week when Fenske
broke the tape in 4:07.4.
Rideout explained his unexpected
squirt as really IAN accident-I ran
faster than I intended" as he
paused during a workout for the
Penn A.. c. meet.
He said he figured on running the
first quarter in 60 or 81 seconds.
Instead he went the distance in 56.8
to push himself Is yards in front of
the rest of the field.
The possibility of another Rideout
"accident" in addition to another
duel between Cunningham and his
nemesis, Fenske, led Robertson to
venture: 'I see no reason why there
won't be a 4:10 mile or better"
The Olympic track coach, re-
viewing the Millrose Mile, said he
thought Cunningham waited just a
bit too long. If he had opened up
Just bit sooner, I think he would
