We the Women
BY RUTH L

In a desperate scramble to find
a place to live, house hunters are
outdoing each other in ~parading
their needs on the want-ad pages
of the newspapers.
Humor, pathoe, desperation -
they're all there, wrapped up like
neat little short stories, each one
a hopeful try at gaining the in
terest of anybody with an apart
ment or house to let.
Take this one, tor instance, writ
ten in a lighter vein: LUCKY
ME-Oh Happy Day! Joy of joys!
My mother-in-law and two broth
ers-in-law are moving into my
apartment if they don't find a
house or apartment. Lucky me! II
there is a kill-joy in town who de-
sires to deprive me of the pleasure
(by renting them something) he
can phone Bill Wills at 2-0404."
Or this one, which combines
dignity with modern frankness:
veteran student and expectant
wife need apartment or house.
Or this one by a cynic who OBJ
viously has concluded that money
talks: "Seventy-five dollars for the
key to an apartment..."
And this one, which definitely
aims to be charming: II like your
city and want to stay here-but
must have a place to live"
All those are copied from the
Sunday edition OF n newspaper
And there were, of course, dozen,
more-each trying a different me
thod of appeal.
For short, short stories that
paint a true picture of life in 1947
you can't beat the want-ad section
of your daily paper.

Plans for a headquarters building
in the Bethesda Chevy Chase area
were announced today by the Mont
gomery County YMCA. The build

as well as youths of the community.
County Commissioner Wesley Sau-
ter, chairman of the Building Com

Mr.. Sauter said.
Frederic M. Hettleship, chairman
of the, Montgomery Y Board of

Oddly enough, it was the economy

The Mayhower was used by Ad-
miral Dewey, hero Of Manila Bay,
as his flagship after she aided in the
blockade of Havana during the Span
American War.
The Mayfower seemed to have
more lives than cat.
In 1881 she burned while at
anchor in Philadelphia and sold
for scrap seven years later for
$4,000. But the national emergency
gave the vessel another lease on life.
The Coast Guard put her back into
service again at cost of 81 ,000, 900
and some time later she was used
for training on Chesapeake Bay and
for occasional patrol and escort mis-
sions.

lands Senate Roads and Highways
Committee today is considering a
resolution asking an investigation
of traffic conditions at the intersec-
ton of Grain highway and Port

La Plata High School is on the

Sacred Heart parochial school on
the west.
F. Bernard Gwynn, county school

Drilling 10 End Next Week
In Gasoline Seepage Hunt

Experts from the United States
Geological Survey who are super
vising drilling operations in Airing
tons gasoline soaked area at Fifth
and North Pollard streets said to-
day they expect to complete the
testing sometime next week.
The boring is being done with
special Army Engineer equipment
in an attempt to locate the source
and the extent of the seepage, which
has plagued residents for many
months.
About half of the test holes have
been made but the source has not
yet been determined. The seepage
first was brought to public attention
early in January and since then
more than 1900 gallons of gasoline
has been pumped from three water
wells. Since March approximately
TOO gallons has been taken out.
Extensive tests by the Bureau of
Standards and the Bureau of Mines
failed to disclose the source but
narrowed the possibilities to two
sources.
