Nepfics Convinced
As TONES Take Lead
By Beating St. John S
Catholic League STANDING
By Bill Fuchs

st. Anthony's has convinced the
skeptics that it is more than just
a token threat in the Metropolitan
Catholic High School Basketball
League. The TONES are alone in
first place today. thanks to a So
55 victory over st. Johns last
night at Priory.
This marks the first time in his
tory that the TONES have sole pos
session of first place but, Coach Ed
Moyle'S team still has q long way
to go.
1t must play both st. Johns
again and Gonzaga, And despite
their showing to date-Seven VIC
tories in as many games-the
TONES have a thin floor beneath.
An injury to one of his five start
ers or the election of one of them
via the personal foul route in a
crucial game could bring the roof
down. Bob Hall, Tom Cassidy.
Jack Sullivan, Phil Tore and
George Shugars played the entire
game last night.
Hall Gets 20 Points.
Hall was terrific last night.
Before an overflow crowd of some
600 fans in the small Priory gym,
Hall put on a demonstration of
shooting and competitive spirit
that kept his team fired up
throughout. He wound up with %
points, most of them collected on
dazzling hook shots. Cassidy
scored %.
HE was doing something wrong
with that hook shot before, ;"
Moyle said. HE was spinning it
the wrong way and his timing
was of. Well, we worked on it all
week and he finally came through"
Halls work under the boards
was also outstanding. The john
nies, with their superior height.
were expected to dominate. but
Hall, with Cassidy and Sullivan
pitching in, wouldn't let them.
Win at Foul Line.
The TONES won, in the final
analysis, at the foul line, with II
points in 81 tries. The Johnnies
made only S in is attempts.
Bob Reese threw in 18 points
and Roscoe Sweeney. 16. to lead
st. Johns, which got off to a
quick 6-3 command. Two hooks
by Hall and layups by Cassidy
and Sullivan put the TONES in
front, where they stayed until
the third period. Reese got a hot
hand in the third, made four
straight baskets and Frank Hard
ing added another to give the
Johnnies q one-point lead. They
trailed, 20-16. after the first period
and 1881 at halftime. The third
period ended with the TONES in
front, 47-45.
The Johnnies led again, $3.50,
in the final, but Cassidy, Shugars
and Hall led the TONES to a $3.50
command with three minutes re-
naming. That did it.
In the second game Of the
ouble-header, Priory got of to
an early lead and held it to beat
DeMatha. 55-44. Jerry Eckholm
led Prior with q points. while
Bill Borowski scored II. Russ
Eddy, a set-shot artist, scored
10 for DeMatha. Priory held |
period leads of 15-11, 1928 and
1892.

creeping congestion that tempts
impatient drivers to take dangerous
chances.
Those are deficiencies directly
connected with safety. They must
be taken into consideration in de-
Gliding the value Of what we have
in the way of roads.
The condition of the surfacing on
those roads that make up the 4,73G
mile total has to be considered.
too. Obviously it isn't all of the
same age on quality, so it can't all
be in the same condition. There
are good miles and bad miles, and
there are in-between miles where
the surface is all right for the
present but will have to be replaced
in the not-too-distant future.
State Roads Commission engin-
GERS know where those miles are,
and how good or bad each is. The
totals, however, aren't significant
in the overall analysis, because in
only a few isolated cases would the
condition of the surface be the de-
termining factor. If a road has to
be widened, OF Strengthened or lev
eled-because of one or another of
the factors we've already learned
about will have to be resurfaced
anyway.
There's one more factor to think
about in evaluating what we have
in the way of a State roads system.
What does it represent in money?
You'll have to take your choice of
several answers for that, for there
are several ways to figure it. For
instance, from the beginning of
the State road system up to now.
and including what will be com
mitted before the end of this fiscal
year, Maryland has spent $44O,-
100000 building and rebuilding its
system of State roads. Is that its
present value?
Another way would be to figure
what it would cost to replace the
whole State system, inadequate as
it may be, at today's prices. When
you think of the engineering costs,

10000. Some are jammed on Sun
day, deserted during the rest of
the week. Some are crowded every
weekday morning and evening. al
most empty during the rest Of the
day.
That complexities matters. Width
is constant, but volume is variable.
Highway engineers make a con-
slant out of it by taking actual
traffic checks over a period suffi-
cient to cover the high ,and lows on
a given section of road, then strik-
ing an average and assigning that
average as the volume factor.
BY the standards they have
evolved from these factors-width
in relation to volume-many. many
miles OF Maryland roads are in
adequate. For instance, the stand
ards prescribe a divided highway
when the traffic load reaches 5000
vehicles a day. Yet. i'm Maryland
hundreds Of miles Of undivided
highways are carrying vehicular
volumes far in excess of that, As Il
matter of fact, some of those less
than-20-foOt roads are carving up
to 5000 vehicles a day. Specifically,
$40 miles of two-way, undivided
highways are carrying vehicular
volumes in excess of 5000 a day,
and 1870 miles Of that total is repre-
scented by roads less than "a feet
wide That's worth remembering.
It's an important consideration in
deciding what we have today in
the way Of roads.
There are other factors, too.
There's the factor highway engin-
GERS call alignment" That has to
do with how straight the road is,
how frequent and sharp the curves
are. Then there's the factor they
call profile" That's another way
of saying how level the road is,
how often and how much it climbs
and dips. Both factors are tied in
to the overall evaluation Of any
road. A too-narrow road is bad
enough, even if it's straight and
level, but too-narrow road that
twists and turns is worst of all.
Maryland has lot Of road mile
age like that. A recent survey
shows:
G.700 curves too sharp for nor
nal driving speed.
1880 places where hills, hol-
lows. curves on distractions limit
the view Of the road ahead to less
than-safe distances at normal driv-
ing speed.

Understanding Our
Highway System

Following is the second in Il
series of five articles on the Mary
land highway system and the -
year plan for Improvement of that
system prepared by the State
Roads Commission and the High
way Advisory Council. This plan
will be submitted to the 1858 Gen
eral Assembly. These articles COM

booklet entitled The Road Ahead"
copies of which may be obtained by
writing to the Public Relations Di-
vision, Maryland State Roads
Commission. los East Lexington
Street. Baltimore 3, Maryland.
Taking inventory of road sys-
tenn isn't SO easy as taking stock
in store The storekeeper wants
to know primarily how much stock
he has on hand. The highway en-
ginccr already know that What
concerns him is how good it is.
1t isn't enough, therefore. simply
to say that Maryland has 4,73G
miles of roads in It's State highway
system and let it go at that. The
question is; How good are those
miles?
Width is one measure Of quality.
The automobiles. trucks and busses
that use our roads today are wider,
longer, faster than they used To be.
They need more room. \ narrow
road may be better than no road,
but a wide road is certainly safer
than narrow one. How wide?
Well, experienced engineers say
the minimum safe width for a two
way road-that means an undivided
highway with nothing but a painted
line to separate the traffic streams
lis "a feet. Now lets see what
Maryland has in its 4.73G miles.
First, lets subtract the l67 miles
of divided highways that are al
ready in use. So far as width goes,
they meet the minimum require
ments. That leaves 1869 miles of
undivided, two-way roads. And
here's what we have:
Roads from 9 to y feet
wide ......... 20 miles
Roads from > to 20 feet
wide 1880 miles
Roads from 20 TO % feet
wide ..........1,2 PSI miles
Roads - feet or more in
width .......... S28 miles
That's the picture so far as
width is concerned, But width is
only one measure of how good
road is. 1t has to be considered
in relation to other factors. Vol
ume Of traffic, for instance. Some
Maryland roads carry 80 vehicles
a day, some carry 500, some carry
5000 and few carry more than

public an answer last night, in

miles from Japan and not over So

Reiterating a protest against
this unprovoked and unjustifiable
attack" the American note again
demanded appropriate compen-

and the lives of the crew members
who have periShed."

earlier request that the Russians
supply information about crew
members who might have been
saved. The Soviet note insisted It'll
