MEET YOUR NEIGHBOR:
Two new families purchased homes
in Wade Park and moved in on the
same day last week. Mr.. and Mrs
Reaves Warren DeCrow (call him
Doc) and two children, Sue aged 7
and Warren 81; are cozily settled
in the cottage on Grove Avenue
formerly owned by the Snioers. Mr..
wCCrow is a Chief Hospital Corps
man at the National Naval Medical
Center in the Research Institute.
The DeCrows have had duty here
before but never knew about the
Grove. They are in love with it
and hope to be able to stay long
time.
Mr.. and Mrs. Harold Dean are
oackdoor neighbors of the DeCrows
and face Wade Park. Mr.. Dean
warks for the Navy Department in
Arlington and there are three small
Deans, Judy aged II, Jimmy 9

are not strangers to these parts

area all their lives but they moved

Your youngest neighbor is An.
gela Mary Merrington, born Apri
8. The Merringtons are delighted
with their new little daughter VIII
has the cufiest eyelashes ever, and
they are also delighted with then
new neighbors the DeCrows and
the Deans and can probably give
Athem some good remodeling tips
as Mr.. Warrington is another OF
our pioneers in BODYBUILDING. He
has rebuilt the cottage from top
to bottom, inside and out, put in
partitions, beautiful hardwood
floors, title floors, a fireplace,
furnace and even a concrets patio.
Mr.. Warrington admits to some
help from Mr.. Wilkerson but did
very large portion of the work
himself. The Merringtons came to
this country in 1947 from England
where he was in the Royal Artillery
for five and a half years and Mrs.
Merrington was Red Cross Nurse.
They hope to apply for citizenship
papers in December.
