Repairs Expert Gives
Answers 10 Queries
OF Home Owners
By Roger c. Whitmon

Question: We live In q 50-year-
old house. Several years ago i'll
developed some leaks. A new roof
failed to correct the condition and
then we discovered the roof gut
tiers were very rusted and fun of
holes. No amount Of patching has
helped. Cutters are shallow and
lined with metal which extends
several feet under the roof. With
the scarcity and high cost Of
metal. replacement is out of the
question. Could you advise a COM
position material to go over the
old metal?
Answer: If the cutters are full
OF holes. repair at best will only
be temporary. You may be able to-
get some service by spreading roof
cement and then placing heavy
asphalt saturated felt over this
and applying another coat of
roofing cement on top. This ma
terial is very thick and should be-
applied with a small trowel. You
might consider replacing the gut
ters with ones made Of wood which
your local lumber dealer might
carry in stock.
Wood Grained WallbOard.
Question: The bathroom andl
kitchen walls are covered with al
wood-grain gypsum wallboard. It'll
has been in use about q year andI
has proved quite unsatisfactory,
especially in the bathroom. We
have given the surfaces five thin
coats Of shellac. Nails are begin
ming to rust and the wood-grainI
paper shows wrinkles in little
bulges around sink and tub. The
wallboard was very expensive and
we cannot afford to replace it.
Would It be possible to paint the
surfaces? Would such shellac
surfaces take linoleum or plastic
tile?
Answer: After dulling the gloss
OF the shellac. by rubbing lightly
with No. steel wool and wip-
ing OF the dust, the walls can be
covered with plastic tile. linoleum.
or metal tile. These walls can also
be painted with good quality
gloss or semi-gloss enamel. I would
suggest that a coat Of aluminium
paint be put on first before finish
ing with enamel. The kitchen
walls should be washed down with
one Of the detergent powders tol
remove all traces of grease. Rims
ing with clear water should fol-
low and time should be allowed
for thorough drying before pro-
eeeding with the rubbing and
painting.
Black Mold On Windows.
Question: moved into my new
home just before winter and not
being able TO obtain storm windows
soon enough. I found that con-
densation, running of the glass.
has soaked into the wood and left
some black mold spots under the
varnish. Is there any way to re-
move this mold?
Answer: The varnish will have
10 be removed down to the bare
wood. and 1t might be possible to
remove the mold with sandpaper.
II not, you can bleach out the dis
coloration by applying q saturated
solution Of oxa1ic acid tpoison)
and denatured alcohol. Leave this
on overnight. then rinse well with
clear water. When thoroughly dry
smooth the surface of the wood

Spruced Up
For Season

Summer visitors to Ocean City,
Maryland's largest resort, will find
changes in the town, in the docks
and on the boardwalk, but the
eternal sea, reason for the whole
thing. will be just the. same.
The waves still roll along the
sand spit on which the town is
built. vacationers still swim, play
ball on the beach. fish and lie
about on the sand.
But they don't play the one
armed bandit anymore. Sheriff
Edwin c. Lynch is seeing to that.
He, under the direction of new
States Attorney John L. Sanford,
is pushing cleanup campaign
designed to attract a higher type"
clientele by removing the slot ma
chimes. dice tables and the Sunday
bootlegger. City officials say they
expect the drive to increase the
number of summer visitors.
The town is expanding, as much
as the National Production Au-
thority will permit. There's a
new hotel-Harrison Hall-on the
boardwalk, and Mayor Daniel
Trimper has brought an old
Coast Guard station from about
six miles up the beach and sliced
1t up into cottages.
The biggest change has come
to the dock areas. The Ocean
City Yacht Basin, now owned by
Capt. Tablet Bunting, has its
walks and runways rebuilt. Capt.
Josh Bunting has received al
Federal permit to dredge and
construct a basin on recently
acquired land next to his Dor
chester street dock. The new
project will replace his 5O-year-
old wharf, storm damaged last
fall.
Other dock areas, including the
Lagoon Basin, the Elliot fish dock
and the Davis & Lynch CONNER
cial dock have also been improved.
And its now easier to get toI
the spruced-up resort. A new
dual highway has been built from
Berlin, Md, to the bridge across
the Sinepautent Bay.

WILLIAMSBURG, Va. Many
persons familiar with historic Will

houses or taverns operated through
Williamsburg Inn and Lodge, when
writing for hotel accommodations
in the city.
Of these. the Market Square
Tavern was run as tavern from
well before the Revolutionary War
almost to the War Between the
States. Restored now to it's orig
inal 18th century appearance, it
is welcoming again the traveller
who is looking for lodging for the
night"
The bedrooms are furnished in
period pieces and in several of
them are canopy beds. A big liv-
ing room is both spacious and
cozy, with a big open fireplace,
American primitives on the wall
and wing chairs and highboys.
The Brick House Tavern lis
another hostelry of the period re-
constructed on the site of the
original tavern kept by Richard
Hunt Singleton, who advertised in
the Virginia Gazette that he was
determined to keep the best
liquors, and in every respect en-
deavor to give satisfaction"
Several smaller houses which
were private homes in their orig
inal existence, are also part of the
hotel system. The Orrell house,
the Moody house and the Quarter
needed only to be restored. The
Lewis house was reconstructed.
