New Crosstown Bus
Route Recommended
By Takoma Park Unit
Military Rood Line
To Huwoii Avenue
Urged by Association

Establishment Of northern
crosstown bus line between Wis
consin avenue on the west and
Hawaii avenue on the east was
recommended last night by the Ia
koma Park Citizens Association.
The route suggested is via Military
road, through the northern part Of
Rock Creek Park. to Concord ave-
hue, crossing Georgia avenue at
Brightwood and thence along Con-
cord avenue, connecting with Hawaii
avenue at the north end of the Sol
diers' Home grounds. Speakers
pointed out that with the rationing
of gasoline and tires many motor
lists would be compelled to use buses,
and this new route would provide
connections with other bus and
streetcar lines in various sections.
The association also favored con-
struction of a shelter for bus pa
irons at the District line, in the vi
cinity of Laurel and Eastern ave-
nues, which is the terminus OF sew
eral lines of the Capital Transit Co.

afraid warden for Takoma Park.

conditions on the west side Of the
Hnderpass at Third and Aspen
streets NV. District officials will
be urged to prohibit parking on

operate through the underpass on
the westbound trips.

 There Is an informal eareiree mood among Breadwayites, differ ent from tho intent, purposeful manner of other streets, Soldiers and sailors arc plentiful.

 The number of young girls, in groups of twos and threes, without escorts, iS noticeable. They are well dressed and have come for the evening from oil tho boroughs and nearby Jersey, to take In q first. run movie and the excitement Of the mideity crowd.
 Broadway has adapted itself to the d!meut in its own way, One outdoor advertising sign to sur. vive the darkness extels cigarettes and puffs giant smoke.rings over the north end of Times Square, A new sign, about four stories high, and just as wide, has partially solved the problem Of diminished illumination, It adVeftiSes soft drink and is made Of what looks like great panes Of eolored glass which cast ghestlike reflections Of tho few stray rays of light
 Buttons of the Times
 For those who must Do decorated, even in Q dimout, there arc arti. fieial flowers on sale, treated to make them glow like fire.fiies.
 Souvenirs have c carnival q,al. ity. There arc tiny turtles an inch or 70 in circumference, their shells painted with flower designs, You can buy one and ship it to c friend, Also, there arc enormous buttons to be worn on the lapel bearing such legends as, "Ki&s Me Before I'm Drafted" I'm Ready, Are You2" "Allergie to Love-" No 100 Times No" and others,
