72More DriversL Listed
For Pleasure Ridinq;
Notices Mailed Out
Three Boards to Hold
Hearings Today on
Alleged Violations

The names Of 70 new alleged vio-
lators Of the pleasure driving ban.
representing the largest addition in
any one day since January II, were
turned in by OPA Investigators and
by local police today.
Only two Of the number were sub
mltted by police. and both of these
we're from precincts. Park police,
reporting that auto drivers have de-
serted the parks since the ban first
went into effect, had no new in
stances of violations.
Putting into operation its new
plan, under which accused drivers
are given a chance to clear them
selves before they are summoned
before ration boards, the OPA re-
ported that it had sent out 40 more
letters notifying operators of cars
that their names had been turned
in as possible violators and urging
them TO get in touch with the OPA
Office either in person or by letter
within three days.
No Replies Received.
This was the second batch of let
ters to be mailed out so far this
week. Twenty-six we're sent Sunday
night.
No reply to any of the letters had
been received so far, but officials
pointed out that this doubtless was
because enough time had not elapsed
for the accused to have received the
letters and prepared answers. Reply
by telephone is not permitted.
Eight drivers called before two
boards yesterday established proof
that they were justified in operating
their vehicles.
Other Decisions Postponed.
Five of these eight appeared be-
fore Board No. 40, Seventh and D
streets Sc, and the other three be-
fore Board No. IL, l740 Massachu-
Twentieth and Evarts streets NE,
had seven cases on its docket and
accepted testimony in all, but with
held decisions until another meeting
set for tonight. A spokesman for
the board said there appeared to be
some definite violations.

uled by the OPA for today. These
will be conducted by Board No, 33
at Brookland School, Tenth and
Monroe streets NE, at 2:30 pm:
