Search Of Two Weeks
For Missing Girl, Is,
Ended by Phone Call

The telephone rang at the
Thomas F. Carey home yesterday,
ending on a happy note a two
week search for the Garey's
daughter, Lucille, 13.
On one end of the line was Mr..
Carey. who flew home from his
engineering job at Gen. Mac
Arthur's Tokyo headquarters last
week to look for Lucille.
On the other end of the line
was Lucille, calling from Phila-
delphia. Her exact words were
lost in the confusion of an ecstatic
moNent, but they were the right
words to send Mr.. and Mrs. Carey
running out to their automobile,
bound for Philadelphia. Later
they telephoned back to Wash
ington that they had their daugh-
ter with them and were going to
return here at once. .
The call at 1:15 pm. ended a
search that began when the Deal
Junior High School pupil left
home two weeks ago, telling her
mother she was going to drug
store near the Carey home at 1925
Park road NV.
When Lucille failed to return,
Mrs. Carey remembered the girls
interest in western movies and
speculated that she had headed
for a dude ranch.
Mr.. Gary, a civil engineer, i'm
mediately left Tokyo and on ar
irving here, offered $1,000 reward
for information about Lucille.
Mrs. Garey's mother, Mrs. Ed
ward Halback, who lives at the
Carey home, did not know where
Lucille had called from or where
she had been.
"We only know that she is q
good girl and that it is wonder
full she is alive" the grandmother
said

Freeway Traffic
Congestion Fails
To Meet Fears
Only Tieups at Circle
Occur on Rainy Nights
Gen. Young Reports

Traffic at Washington Circle
since the opening of the new
Whitehurst Freeway isn't living ur
to his apprehensions about it. En-
gineer Commissioner Gordon r
Young reported yesterday.
THE problem at Washington
Circle" he said, "is not what I hac
expected it would be.
When you build a fast traffic
way gathering in a lot Of traffic
and shoot it into the central part
of town, there is point where II
must slow up and disperse. You're
extremely likely to get some con-
gestion at that point.
when We finished the freeway
I was expecting the congestion tc
develop in the incoming traffic in
the morning at Washington
Circle"
Only Delays on Rainy Nights.
Gen. Young said, however, that
none has been reported to him;
nor has there been any material
block in the evening westbound
traffic except on rainy nights.
Highway engineers still are
studying the traffic movement at
the circle to see how the "odd
periodic jams" can be eliminated.
Their reports indicate so far that
the normal delay at the circle
ranges from less than a minute
to a little over a minute.
Gen. Young said he thought the
ultimate solution would be an
underpass at the circle. He con-
siders a new bridge across the
Anacostia River the next major
highway need, however.
IT don't see how we are going
to find money to build the Ana
costa bridge and concurrentiy
find money to undertake major
improvement at Washington Cir
cle," he said.
Likely to Exhaust Funds.
The 15-year highway plan fol
the city, which is now five years
old, called for an underpass al
the circle in line with K street as
the next major project after COM
pletion of the Dupont Circle un-
derpaSs. But the Anacostia bridge
is likely to exhaust the Highway
Departments major construction
funds for the next two years.
AS for suggestions that Pennsyl-
vania avenue be cut through
Washington Circle, Gen. Young
said the question must be consid-
cred whether you wouldn't bring
more congestion Of traffic seeking
the freeway than you~ get rid of
at the circle" He pointed out
there would be just as many
crossings. but instead Of being at
one point, they would spread out.
In addition, he said, while he
did not think ''esthetic consider
atoms should override public ne
cessity." appearance is factor in
highway planning.

As New Chairman,
Luuds Predecessor

Gen. George C. Marshall Off
cially joined the Red Cross staff

Statler.
The tribute to Mr.. O'Connor,
head of the national organization
for five years and founder of the
blood donor program, was spon-
sored by the Board of Governors
and the national staff.
One of Mr.. O'Connor's hardest
jobs, Gen. Marshall said, was the
rapid demobilization of the Red
Cross.
Praises Teamwork.
Mr.. O'Connor praised the team
work among the Red Cross chap
tiers in the last five years.
"The things that were good
were due to teamwork. The
things that were bad were due to
the leadership" he said.
There is no justification for
cutting any program Of the Red
Cross on the grounds that the
money for it can't be raised, Mr..
O'Connor emphasized.
Remember one thing" he said,
"The volunteer is the life blood of
the chapters. I leave you Off
cially and reluctantly"
Gets Parchment Volume.
Mr.. O'Connor was presented a
morocco bound volume of hand

corded his achievements as head

Parking Ticket
Report Ordered
By Kronheinn
Motorist Complains
District lond Isn't
Clearly Marked

Municipal Court Judge Milton
8. Kronheim yesterday directed
Pvt. p L. FOSTERING of the Ninth
Precinct to make a report to the
Police Departments Traffic Divi-
sion concerning a strip Of Dis
trict-owned land at Seventeenth
street and Maryland avenue NE.
where an average of so parking
tickets a week have been handed
out since August.
Judge Kronheim remarked that
"the place ought to be marked
more clearly" after George J.
Kane. 5513 Parkland court Sc.
told the judge he was guilty Of
parking on the area "but that
the place is just trap. Motorists
don't know they can't park there.
and when they come back to their
cars, they find tickets" Mr..
Kane's So collateral was returned.
The land in question is adja-
cent to large store and custo-
mers have been using it when
the stores parking lot was filled.
Parking Law Cited.
Several months ago. however.
Capt. Irwin limbaugh of the Ninth
Precinct said it was necessary to
cite cars parked there because an
act of Congress prohibits parking
beyond the building line.
He said also that the constant
movement of cars on the 55-foot
wide space was creating a serious
erosion problem, and much con-
gestion.
After many tickets had been
issued, the Commissioners directed
the Department of Vehicles and
Traffic last August Is to erect q
no parking sign at the site.
No sign had been posted, how
ever, Judge Kronheim was told.
George E. Keneipp, director of the
department said yesterday he was
out of town at the time and the
matter had not come to his atten-
ton. He added that "the sign shop
isn't that far behind, and If such
an order was received, I should
think the sign would have been
uoSfed nv this time"
Curb is Suggested.
Mr.. Keneipp said he thought a
curb along the entrance to the
unimproved lot would be the So
luton to the problem. He said it
had not been his practice to erect
mo parking signs on public spaces
because "if you do it on one place
you have to do it on all of them"
Capt. limbaugh said he had
hoped the ticketing of cars would
soon convince drivers they
couldn't park there, but that it
apparently hasn't.
The police captain said the Dis
trict Highway Department had
accepted his suggestion that
Maryland avenue be widened at
that point to make use of the
site, but that he didn't know when
work would begin.
Capt. limbaugh said the store
had erected make-shift signs some
time ago which said. in effect,
Don't park here or police will
give you a ticket" Weather or
children have destroyed these
signs, he said.
