Mid-CiN Group Asks
Police Probe Of
Slot Machine Joints
Association Acts on
Charges Thot Youth
Frequents Places

Existence of penny" slot-machine
establishments, many of which have
sprung up here in recent months, was
protested last night by members of
the Mid-City Citizens Association,
which asked an immediate police
investigation of the legality of such
places, with view to early prose-
cution.
In a move to fight existence OF
these Joints" it was charged boys
between the ages of 9 and 18-or
older-remain until 1 and 2 am
pouring pennies into slot machines.
In recent months, many such places
particularly on Ninth street NV.
have opened up, doing a thriving
trade among the young and men IN
uniform.
Notice of the associations action
will be transmitted to the Metro
politan Police Department, asking a
complete investigation. Under the
law, the contrivances themselves are
said to be legal If no cash pay offs
are offered.
In a move to combat the large
number of traffic deaths in WASH
ington this year the association
asked Maj. Edward J. Kelly, super
intendent of police, to allocate the
100 new policemen, authorized for
the District. to traffic duty.
Legislation forbidding children
under the age of IA to appear on
the professional stage was approved
In principle.
The association voted to join IN
the Federation of Citizens Assocla-
tions membership drive, scheduled
for early next year, stipulating that
participation in the drive, and pay
nent of the required Is cents per
recruit. would apply only to new
members.
Robert C. Hendon. special agent
of the Federal Bureau of Investiga-
ton, spoke on the problems and
operations of the G-men.
Mr.. Hendon said, I'VE are de-
termined not to be victims OF spies,
subverters and saboteurs. There has
been only a small amount of sabotage
in the United States, in comparison
with the amount perpetrated during
the last war. We need the complete
cooperation of American citizens in
combating the efforts of foreign
agents. We have the situation well
in hand"

Utility Gets Right
To Purchase Lines
Potomac Edison Authorized TO
Acquire Franchises in This
County

The Potomac Edison Power Com
pany received authorization of the
Public Service Commission to pur-
chase lines and franchises CT the As
ISOLATED Maryland Electric Power
Company, operating in a section of
Garrett county.
The authorization followed hear
ing on the proposed transfer in Balti-
more last week At the hearing repre-
sentatives of both firms said they be-
lieved Potomac Edison could operate
in this county more economically than
Associated Maryland, which they said
has been operating at a loss.
The transfer affects approximately
forty miles of distribution lines in this
county. R. E. Town, secretary-treas-
urer of the Potomac-Edison company,
told the commission that after the
transfer was affected, approximately
fifty-two percent of the 900 domestic
consumers being served by the Asso-
ciated Maryland would receive the
benefit Of rate reductions. Town told
the P. S. C. that Associated Maryland
consumers whose rates already were
lower than the existing rates of the
Potomac Edison rates would not be
affected by the transfer.
Associated Maryland's distribution
lines in this county are now almost
entirely surrounded by lines of the
Potomac Edison Power Company.

Turning Over An
Old Leaf
By Phillip A. Gladheim

There were faces to remember in the
Valley of the Shadow;
There We're faces unregarded, there
We're faces to forget;
There were fires of grief and fear
that are few forgotten ashes;
There were sparks of recognition that
are not forgotten yet"
Early Saturday morning this July
5 an expedition of mountain climbers,
naturalists and historians, de locale,
will ascend Roaring Plains in West
Virginia. On these plains where Ran
dolph and Tucker counties join, they
will raise flag and dedicate with Ell
quette due such an event, mountain
peak AGO feet in elevation in honor
of Porte Crayon. This peak has never
been given a name. 1t is next to the
highest peak in West Virginia. Spruce
Knob is one hundred feet higher and
is located in Pendleton county.
Porte Crayon, meaning carrying
pencil" was the nom deplume Of Gen
eral George Hunter Strother, of Mar
tinsburg, West Va. He was a general
in the Civil War. Both before and
after the Civil War, Porte Crayon
busted himself with expeditions into
the wild mountain regions of what is
now Northern West Virginia. He took
careful notes and later wrote articles
as we'll as books describing in brilliant
narrative the landscape, people and
incidents, amusing and otherwise, as
sociated with the expeditions.
Interest has of late been reawakened
in this pioneer explorer of the Allie
gheny Mountains and it is fitting that
a mountain should be dedicated in his
honor. If you happen to have a bound
volume of Harper's Magazine Of 1872
hold on to it, for the book collector
will come in your door some day and
offer you tidy sum. Perhaps the best
private collection Of Porte Crayon in
the State of Maryland is in the Amer
icana owned by Frank Lee Carl, vet
eran news editor of Cumberland. Mr.
Carl is planning to ascend the mount
July and take part in its dedication
to Porte Crayon.
l should say it is general knowl-
edge that the highest elevation in the
State Of Maryland is in Garrett county
but neither in Garrett nor any other
county of the State can you find per-
son that could tell you or show you
the highest elevation. You will find
the spot indicated on a United States
Geodetic Survey map, but the spot has
never been given name.
One would think that Maryland, be-
ing an older State, with many more
historic markers, would long ago
have set up marker indicating the
point that is highest. Its elevation is
somewhere between 3,340 and 1850
feet. It's location is on the crest of
Backbone Mountain, about one and
one-half miles southwest of Table
Rock
One would not require an Alpine
technic to scale its heights, and per-
haps that is one reason why so little
interest has been accorded the place.
Nevertheless we Marylanders should
no longer be denied the thrill of know
ing what is the highest elevation,
where it is located and how to reach it.
l would suggest that the Maryland
Mountain Club, located in Baltimore,
be responsible for the naming of this
point and organize a mountain party,
perhaps yet this summer, and dedi-
cate it with a degree of solemnity and
pomposity appropriate for such an
occasion.
