A tall. mustached man and his
blond woman companion robbed
a Rhode Island avenue liquor
store of an estimated $4,000 last
night.
The woman handled til e
money,
Abraham Danzig, owner of the
liquor store at 914 Rhode Island
avenue NE, told police the
straw HATED. tall man asked for
bottle of whisky when he
walked into the store alone.
Mr.. Danzig turned back to the
customer with bottle in hand
and faced a gun. He was ordered
to &c to the back room and lie
down.
The woman came in, took the
money from a safe and a cash
register and both drove away in
a car which had been parked
at the curbing. She wore a
bandana handkerchief on her
head and a transparent plastic
raincoat, the victim said.
Police saw a close link between
the Danzig robbery and that of

Declared the non-Chinese
Cherry Hill people:
Prior to our self assumed slum
clearance and CITY, -beautifying
project. this piece of land was a
big mound of dirt, oyster shells,
tin cans, empty whisky and wine
bottles. The gateway does no
harm to any one or anything
We feel that to remove it would
destroy an item of beauty to the
great detriment of the Cherry
Hill section"
The city heads ruled that the
gateway may stay if the affected
property owners file a petition
with them.
An expert in the Chinese sec
ton of the Library of Congress
added the footnote that the
moon gate has no cultural sig
nificance with the Chinese. 1T

monotony of walls" The con-

Chinese Moon Gate Allowed
To Block Georgetown Alley

BY virtue of their love for Old
Georgetown culture, a handful
of Old Georgetown residents to-
day were granted leave to retain
a Chinese moon gate now block
ing a public alley.
The District Commissioners
were acting on the pleas of
home-oWners abutting an alley
in the rear of 1039-41 Cecil place
NV.
The strip is only eight feet
wide and deadends after zig gag
ging for half a block, just west
of Wisconsin avenue and south
of the old Chesapeake and Ohio
Canal. Even without the moon
gate, it is strictly non-vehicular.
The gate itself is nearly round
and is f1anked by brick lattice
