e. E. Lawler, jr., supervisor OF
ABC stores for the Northern :Vir-
ginia area, said the opening of the
center is the result of complaints
about irregular hours of registra-
ton in the stores and the fact that
no books were issued after 5 pm.
Heavy registration is expected to
continue, due to the influx of new
comers, scarcity and rising prices
OF liquor in Washington and the

Alexandria Refuses
To Drop Health Tests
Food Handlers, Borbers
Must Meet Standards

The Alexandria Board of Health
was on record today as opposing
any relaxation of the ordinance re-
quiring health examination for
food handlers, BARRIERS and beau
ticians.
DR.. w. A. Browne. city health
officer and eX-officio member of the
board, was advised of the boards
unanimous decision at meeting
Monday night to enforce the ordi-
nance.
The move followed a letter writ
ten by the Alexandria Medical So
ciety to Mayor William T. wilkins.
also member of the Board of
Health. approving continued en-
forcement of the ordinance.
There have been many complaints
from restaurant and store owners
that the turnover in personnel and
the difficulty of getting help made
it impossible to require health cards.
Rumors also were circulated to the
effect that the Health Department
had been instructed to overlook the
ordinance.
DR.. Browne said Alexandria has
received national recognition for its
foresight in including such an ordi-
nance in its code. and that during
the last 10 months only six cases
have been brought to court.
The system of grading restaurants
and requiring the conspicuous post
ing of the A. B or C card has proven
effective, DR.. Browne said, and esti-
mated that go per cent of the estab-
lishments have A cards, with only 10
per cent rating c.
The recent employment of an ad-
ditional sanitary inspector has made
it possible to introduce this system
in cases of food stores. barber and
beauty shops. and preliminary in
spections have begun.
A motion to amend the city code
to prohibit the sale of raw milk and
cream was tabled until DR.. Browne
can report on the rulings in nearby
localities.
The health officer said he would
favor such an ordinance. especially
in view of reported cases of undulant
fever in this locality in the last year.

Darden Will Address
Virginia Teachers on
Plan for Pay Increase
Education Association,
In Session at Richmond,
Takes Up Many Issues

b. the Associated Press.
RICHMOND, Nov. l7.-Members
of the Virginia Education Associa-
tion awaited eagerly today a dis
cussion by Gov. Darden of the mat
ter uppermost now in the minds of
most teachers-higher pay.
The Governor was called to dis
cuss before the initial business ses-
sion of the YEAS l943 meeting the
program he expects to recommend
to the General Assembly on in
creases in teacher pay. He has pro-
posed that the State increase its
minimum contribution per teacher
unit to $3.50 for the first year of the
Fbiennium and $50 for the second
year.
Before hearing from the Governor.
the $50 delegates were to hear a re-
port from their association presi-
dent, Miss Ethel Spilman, Harrison
burg. and talk by Mrs Edith B.
Joynes. president of the National
Education Association.
Other Issues Discussed.
Preliminary sessions of various
departments of the association were
occupied yesterday with discussion
of school bus transportation, the
distribution of State funds for
schools. and juvenile delinquency.
The Executive Board Of the Vir-
ginia Business Education Associa-
ton took cognizance of a recent
survey by the Virginia Chamber OF
Commerce of the whole education
setup in Virginia, and asked that
special study be given to the sur
vey so that "the present difficulties
confronting the businessmen of the
State may be helped to solution"
The chambers report on its sur
vey said check of employers
showed that high school graduates
were deficient in some fields, in
Guiding American history
The same board also recon-
mended that a State director of
business education should be ap-
pointed.
Urges State Bus Control.
L. Preston Collins. Marion,
member of the Virginia House of
Delegates and a member of the Vir-
ginia Advisory Council, urged in
talk before the superintendents yes
terday that the school bus system be
placed under State control. Each
county now operates its own.
Delegate Collins attacked what he
said was the present system of
farming out to private individuals
the operation of the school buses
and said a unified State control
would save 100000 annually.
The superintendents themselves
raised a question as to whether the
present plan of allocating State
funds to schools on the basis of
average daily attendance of pupils
was the best one Supt. Joseph
Saunders, Newport News, said it
would be better to make distribu-
ton of the funds on the basis of
school enrolment rather than on
attendance.

Third of Vehicles
To Turn Back
At 18th Street

About one-third of the Arnold
operated buses entering the District
from Virginia over Key Bridge are
expected to end their runs at Fiji
teenth and K streets NV tomor-
row, following approval by the Com
missioners today Of an order estab-
fishing the bus terminal.
E. j. Milligan, executive secretary
of the Public Utilities Commission,
said 1t is expected that arrange
ments will be completed in time to
permit the buses to begin using the
new terminal in the morning.
An Offlce of Defense Transporta-
ton order, issued several weeks ago,
provided that one-third of the
Arnold buses entering the District
over this route would be turned
around at Fifteenth and K streets.
Mr.. Milligan, however, said it was
expected that fewer would be
stopped there until a complete
schedule could be arranged
H. H. England, secretary-treasurer
Of the Arnold-operated lines, said
that until the schedule is worked out
only dead heads or buses coming
empty from the garage, will operate
from the new terminal.
1T will take few days of operat-
ing under the new system before we
can work out schedule" Mr.. Eng
land said
ODT officials said the order would
conserve rubber and gasoline in ad-
dition to relieving downtown traffic
congestion. The turn-around plan
will be effective daily with the ex-
ception of Sundays, when all Arnold
buses will proceed to the terminal at
Eleventh and E streets.
Mr.. Milligan said the Fifteenth
and K street terminal will provide
space for four buses in the south. K
street roadway west of the Fifteenth
street intersection, in front of the
Southern Railroad Building.
Buses leaving the terminal for
Virginia will be routed south on
Fifteenth street to I street. west on
l street to Seventeenth street and
then north to K street where they
will make left turn at K street.
Mr.. Milligan said Traffic Director
Van Duzer considered the Seven
teenth and K streets intersection
the safest point for left turn.

U.
Plans S800,o00
In Construction
Stadium Seating
SO, 900 Part Of
Postwar Project
BY the Associated Press,

DR.. H. G. Byrd, president Of the
University of Maryland, announced
today that plans had been drawn for
postwar construction program in
excess of 100000, including a foot
ball stadium seating $4,000 persons.
Although the program Is expected
to cost considerably more, DR.. Byrd's
request, at least for the present, was
only 100000.
A new fieldhouse, seating $4,000,
for basket ball games and boxing
matches, an indoor swimming pool
and an addition to the girls GYM
nasium also was planned.
DR.. Byrd said he hoped to start
work "as soon as we can get the
materials after the war is ended.
Stadium Site Undetermined.
This program is in addition to the
huge new armory just completed at
a cost Of around 100000 for the
Army specialized training program
at the institution and the Reserve
Of1cers' Training Corps.

been determined, DR.. Byrd said, and
may even be located on the west
side Of Washington boulevard where
the main campus buildings are sit
uated. He said the cost would be
$3.50 900 to s400 900, and it will be
planned so that it could be enlarged
to seat from 10000 to go 900 persons.
The present Byrd Stadium will seat
about 10000 persons.
I'VE won't ask the State for a
nickel for the stadium, since we
plan to raise the money from
alumni, students. perhaps by bor-
rowing some, and may even get a
part of it by Federal Government
grant"
Has No Pool Now.
DR.. Byrd said Maryland was the
only school of its size that he knew
about that didn't have a swimming
pool, and that plans called for an
indoor pool in a separate building
at cost of around SIPS 900.
Since 1t would be used for both
girls and boys, DR.. Byrd said a
separate building apart from a gym
nasium or field house would be
necessary. The pool will be 120
feet long, 60 feet wide. complete with
dressing rooms and other facilities.
I'VE expect to ask the State for
some of the money for the pool,
since this is part of the physical
education program for all Students
Coliseum Unsuited.
DR.. Byrd said plans for the field
house raised the question of either
enlarging the present Ritchie Coli
scum, or building a new field house
and turning the coliseum over to
freshman athletics.
If we attempt to lengthen the
coliseum, it would be too long and
narrow, so it was thought best to
build a new field house. with seat
ing for $4,000 or 1850 persons.
Ritchie Stadium seats only 5000.
| When the war began we had a
potential audience of 5000. mostly
students and faculty without selling
any seats. On all-university nights
We had to try and keep people from
coming, because of the limited seat
ing of the coliseum.
I'VE are faced with the problem
OF excluding the general public and
many OF the alumni from indoor
athletics, and if we are to invite
them, We must have seats for 1000
to 5000 more persons"
Cost Of new field house would ba
$500, 900 to s350,000 he said.
