Capitol Architect Pushes Plans
To Modernize LIGHTING System

Adjournment of Congress means
no vacation for David Lynn. archi-'
tect of the Capitol, and his as
sistants.
II anything, it means more
work. Projects under way must
be pushed even more vigorously
and new ones started.
Among the new projects con-
fronting Mr.. Lynn is a long range
'$16. 100000 program of replacing
and undermining the lighting sys-
tenn of all buildings on Capitol
Hill now supplied by the Capitol's
own power system.
Before adjourning, Congress au-
thorized the project and appro-
priated $950,000 for it's initial
planning.
The undertaking means even
tual abandonment of the system
and the purchase of power from
the Potomac Electric Power Co.
The change-over will give the
Capitol a more efficient and eco
nomical lighting system than the
one from which power is now OBJ
tanned by old generators. Two of
the generators were installed 40
years ago. and two others about
20 years ago. The old wiring sys-
tenn will be replaced by facilities
that will allow the use of all mod
ern lighting developments.
Will Require About 4 Years.
Mr.. Lynn estimated the pro-
gram will require about four years
for completion. The first step, he
explained, will be to employ con-
sulting engineers to make a de-
tailed survey Of the lighting sys-
tenn and draw specifications for
the modernization program.
After that, bids will be let and
the work carried on gradually in

Far Exceed Liabilities,
Mrs. Hairless Asserts

The United Nations Club. beset
with money difficulties, has "far
more assets than liabilities" &C
cording to Mrs. Richard F. Hairless,
the former Meredith Howard.
Mrs. Hairless told the Associated
Press in Phoenix, Ariz., where she
now lives. that she was surprised
by statements about the financial
condition of the club she helped
found in 1912.
Il can only say that some one
''* has a personal ak to grind
and hopes to throw the club into
,receivership to profit from attor-
neys' fees" the Associated Press
quoted her as saying.
Resignation Was Accepted.
Mrs. Hairless resignation as
president of the club, which is. at
1701 Nineteenth street NV, was
accepted at a membership meeting
Tuesday night when the clubs
financial plight was revealed. In
her resignation she said she is now
making her home in Phoenix since
her marriage to the former Repre-
sentative from Arizona.
Mrs. Hairless, one-time Follies
show girl. said an investigation
would show the club had more
assets than liabilities.
She claimed the organizations

Industrial Firm Plans
Research Laboratory
Al Md. IT,, Byrd Says

The University of Maryland is
negotiating with large industry
to establish a $2,500,000 re-
search laboratory on the campus
at College Park, President Harry
C. Byrd disclosed yesterday.
= DR.. Byrd made the announce
ment during an address at the
university's fall convocation,. at
Ritchie Coliseum: He refrained
however, from discussing details
OF the project. Later he told re-
porters the negotiations should be
completed within two weeks but
declined to elaborate further.
This laboratory, DR.. Byrd said
will help give the University o1
Maryland "one of the. greatest
chronological institutions any.
where In America"
1t will comprise one phase Of 8
large building program which in.
cludes a new chemistry building
with one unit for research ano
another for classrooms and lab
oratories; a physics building
mathematics building, a girls
field house, a new stadium, q
chapel and physical education
and auditorium building, with 9
seating capacity of 10000.
I'VE will have flne buildings y
said DR.. Byrd, "but buildings, in
themselves, do not make a great
university. We've got to add con-
tinually to what we're doing in an
educational way"
In this connection, DR.. Byrd
said the university is doing well
in many fields. He mentioned
health, agriculture and the gradu-
ate schools. but he emphasized the
Importance Of courses in the Col
lege of Arts and Sciences.
The address was the first DR..
Byrd ever had given at a conyoca-
ton. He said he was urged to do
so by several deans, who felt there
was need for better UNDERSTANDING.
both by faculty and students, of
the far-fung activities of the
university. The president observed
that these activities are carried
on not only in College Park and
Baltimore, but throughout Nary
land. In other States and even in
foreign lands.

(Sirth of q Series.)

The gradual shifting of the Co.
lumbia Heights and Mount Pleas
ant area from white to colored
residents has left all the white
schools in that area with enroll
ments we'll under the capacity of
the buildings.
The section being considered to-
day is the locale of Griffith
Stadium, Howard University, the
huge Mcmillan Reservoir, Garfield
Hospital and Meridian Hill Park.
1t is bounded by the Baltimore
& Ohio Railroad tracks on the
east, Sixteenth street on the west,
Florida avenue on the south and
Spring road, Park place and
Michigan avenue on the north.
DR.. George D. Strayer of Co.
lumbia University, who conducted
a study of school needs in WASH
ington last year, said the white
school population has decreased
more than so per cent in this
area since 1889. 1t is unlikely
that additional white school facil-
tiles will be needed, he added
To meet the need of colored
elementary pupils, the Board of
Education last year transferred
the Park View Elementary School
from white to colored pupils.
Future Plans Listed.
And future plans call for a new
building to replace the present
Cardozo High School, which is To-
Gated south of this area and
serves colored pupils. The new
school will be constructed in the
vicinity Of Barry place and Geor-
gia avenue NV. The school
boards. 1951 budget estimates
asked for money to purchase the
site.
Considerable controversy has
arisen over demands of the COL
ored citizens that Central High
School be transferred to colored
students to relieve the admittedly
bad overcrowding at Cardozo High
School. This matter still is
pending before the Board of Edu-
cation, although hearings were
held before school opened in Sep
tember.
Central now serves 822 high
school students and 513 junior
