News OF
City Hall

Mayor Mills called a special meet
ing of the Council for 1880 p. m.
Tuesday night, for the purpose of
giving the five members of the Coun-
Gil ample time to present the needs
and requirements of their consti-
tuents, it being felt that, due to the
business already on the agenda for
the regular meeting tonight, they
probably would not have time to
take action on the needs of the five
wards.
But what was expected to be
purely routine meeting, took an
unexpected turn, when Councilman
Luther w Broom requested that
his opposition to the retirement on
pension of Police Chief Max Richard,
be placed in the minutes.
This brought on quite discus
sion and at the request of the coun-
cilmen the entire correspondence on
the police chiefs retirement, in
Guiding the reports of the three doc
tors, was read by the City Clerk, and
it was quite evident that had the
matter been in the hands of the
Council, the retirement would not
have been granted.
1t was brought out, however, that
under the new City Charter the mat
ter of the retirement of a police of
ficer for disability, rested solely in
the hands of the Mayor, and so the
discussion ended with an entry in
the minutes, that "Councilmen Lu-
Their Broom and Roy Knight( the
former Police Commissioner who
under the Sweeney administration
moved that Police Chief Peters be
denoted to detective and Rickarc
appointed chief opposed the re.
tirement of Police Chief Richard
and as an alternative would have
had him recalled to duty on the
force"
1t was also brought out at the
meeting, that the 1949 budget made
no allowance for new alleys in the
city, and so all the Councilmen can

EVER THOUGHT OF A CLAM
BAKE for your back yard or
the beach? Certainly, it's an
old New England custom, but
there's no reason why you
can't enjoy it here in Wash
ingtOn.
OF course, there are all kinds
of arguments about how to 60
about a clam bake. New Eng
landers of the "old school, say
that only hot rocks and sea-
weed and the New England
air can make REAL clam
bake. But more and more
people are trying them on
Chesapeake beaches and in
their back yards.
For a back yard clam bake,
we recommend the purchase
of a commercial steamer" but
on the beach you might try the
"pure" New England version.
A food authority recently
entertained on her Connecticut
farm with a clam bake and
here's her version, cooked in a
commercial steamer" Scrub
bed clans were placed on the
bottom. Then a cheeseclOth bag
with little pearl onions came
next; then .cOrn-On- the-cob,
and corn husks over that. On
top were potatoes with dill.
The clam broth permeated the
whole for a delicious meal.
CLANS are plentiful at Gen.
ter Market City stands, and
come from both New England
and Virginia. So why not have
a clam bake one of these days?
Potatoes with dill reminds us
that you can buy fresh dill and
sage at Frank. Caruso's stand,
