In order to provide students with
actual experience, the ice cream is
made in classes of the dairy manu-

said. Most of the milk used comes
from the schools dairy herd.
Other dairy products, besides the
ice cream, are retailed at the WASH
ington boulevard salesroom.
Mr.. Steele did not say the ice
cream came from the university
dairy class freezers.

ANNAPOLIS, March 27.-William
Roberts of Landover advised men,
bers of the Prince Georges County
delegation in the House today that
he would appear tonight with a
group of county residents to oppose
the pending bill to permit Sunday
liquor sales in the county.
The bill would permit restaurants
and hotels to sell liquors, beer and
light wines from midnight Saturday
until 2 am. Sunday and from pm.
until midnight Sunday.
BAR Restriction Lifted.
AS originally drawn the measure
would have prohibited the sale of
liquor at bars or counters during
those hours, permitting sales at
tables only. An amendment offered
before the bill was favorably re-
ported by the delegation yesterday,
however, lifted the restriction on
sales at bars. Another amendment
raised the class B license for hotels
and restaurants from $500 to $3.50
and was calculated to raise s14, 500
for the county from the So license
holders.
The bill in effect banning hog
farms using garbage from the Dis
trict, reported out of the delegation
earlier this week, passed the House
last night and went to the Senate,
where no opposition was expected.
Must Dispose of Stock.
The measure prohibits hauling of
garbage from outside the county to
any point within the county not
designated by the county health de-
partment, which already has indi-
Gated it would not approve hauling
to any hog farms. Owners of farms
now feeding hogs garbage hauled
from the District will be open until
April l, 1912, to get rid of their
stock, under the bill.
A bill introduced yesterday by the
county delegation under a suspen-
sion of the rules would modify the
present street remaining program of
the Maryland National Capital Park
and Planning Commission by pro-
hibiting change in name of streets
when go per cent of the residents or
more opposed the change.

Patuxent Dam
Work May Start
Next Summer
Proposal Studied by
Maryland Water
Resources Body

Construction work on a project to
harness the Patuxent River as
source of water supply will begin
some time next summer If the plan
is approved by the Maryland Water
Resources Commission.
This was revealed by Harry r.
Hall, chief engineer of the Washing
ton Suburban Sanitary Commission,
during public hearing yesterday
before the water commission at the
County Service Building in Hyatts-
vile. The project as planned by
the Sanitary Commission would in
clude construction of an impounding
dam and reservoir in Montgomery
and Howard Counties near Brighton,
an intake pumping station and filter
plant near Laurel and pipelines
connecting to the water system OF
the commission in Prince Georges
County.
At the same time G. Bowie Nc
Ceney, town attorney for Laurel, ex-
pressed concern as to whether the
project will allow an adequate flow
of the Patuxent River to provide for
proper operation of the towns sew
age disposal plant. The commission
assured Mr. McCeney that this mat
ter would be taken into conSidera-
ton.
Facilities Overtaxed.
After outlining details of the prof.
ect, Mr.. Hall declared the population
in the sanitary district has reached
a point where his commissions
facilities are overtaxed. He said
that at present the commission is
providing 7,500, 900 gallons of water
daily to a population of about 105,-
900 people in the district. With the
population expected to grow to 150,-
900 within the next 10 years, devel-
opment of the project must get
under way as soon as possible.
Mr.. Hall admitted that even the
proposed project will probably have
to be enlarged ultimately though it
Is designed to provide adequate
water supply until about 1860, when
the population should be nearly
257,G60. However, in view of de-
velopments. such as the recently
announced Federal City project at
Suitland, the project may ultimately
be enlarged to connect the main
Patuxent and little Patuxent Rivers
and Seneca Creek, which combined
would provide about 100000 gall
Ions of water per day to a popula-
tion of 500 600
Restrictions Forecast.
During the hearing, p G. Ligon,
owner of property site on the reser-
voir, asked the resources commits
sion II the proposed reservoir would
be available for fishing, boating and
swimming and If the surrounding
land would be developed for residen-
tial purposes. He was told the use
of the reservoir and land would
proba bly, be subject to restrictions.
w. F. Wilson of Brookville told
the commission he has property just
above the dam site and house on
a nearby hill. He declared he did
not wish to move and would fight
any move to force him to do so. He
was told that the sanitary COM
mission would probably have to
acquire his property.
Frank L. BentZ of the Maryland
State Game and Fish Commission
told the commission the law requires
that fish ladder be provided on the
dam in order to allow fish to move
upstream.

Warning Called Into Court
For Habeas Corpus Hearing

Justice James w. Morris has di-
rected that Emmitt R. Warning,
former large numbers operator here,
now serving time in the Lorton,
Va0 Reformatory, be brought into
District Court on Tuesday for a
habeas corpus hearing.
The jurist signed the papers yes
terday afternoon after Attorney My
ron G. Ehrlich told him that because
of recent Supreme Court decision,
Warnings sentence, based on alleged
jury tampering and contempt OF
court. is invalid. Mr.. Ehrlich argues
that on April IA the Supreme Court
laid down the rule that contempt
of court must take place in close
physical proximity to the tribunal
but the charge against Warning said
that the jury tampering took place
at A local hotel where the jury,
considering an income tax indict-
ment against him, was locked up
for the night.
Recently. Warning unsuccessfully
sought freedom on habeas corpus
writ, contending that when Justice
Bolitha J. Laws of District Court
sentenced him on the contempt
charge. he overlooked the maximum
and minimum provisions of the In
determinate Sentence Act.
