At Model AirpIdne Show

jet flights.

cast and went on with the show.

power. The ship disintegrated
from the impact.

adding "I've flown that ship for
five years and this is the first
time I can recall ever seeing any
thing as odd as that"

speed entries. They had sufhci-
ent engine power to fight the
wind and had the advantage of
being nand-controlled.

American j.
Bans Avenue
Hospita|.Entry
Offer Is Intended
To Alloy Feors
Of Homeowners

American University does not
plan to open University avenue
as an entrance to the new Sibley
Hospital, which it wants to put
on the campus, a spokesman said
today. q
E. F. Colladay, attorney for
the university. made the pledge
to meet objections of Wesley
Heights and Spring Valley home
owners who fear a hospital on
the campus will cause heavy
traffic through their residential
area. James c. Wilkes, attorney
for the homeowners, said such
an agreement could not be
binding.
The offer was made by Mr..
Colladay as Judge Alexander
Holtzoff resumed his hearing of
the suit brought by the uni
versity and the hospital in the
U. S. District Court for the Dis
trict of Columbia.
Seek to Overrule ZOning.
American University and Sib-
ley Hospital are seeking to over
turn a ruling of the District Zon-
ing Commission which changed
the classification of the campus
from Residential A to Residen-
t1al A restricted. This ruling.
made on a plea by the home
owners, prevented the planned
construction of the hospital.
Judge Holtzoff brought up the
question of a covenant when he
remarked that he got the i'm
preston that the home-owtlers
were afraid that an entrance to
the hospital would be cut into
University avenue. He asked if
an agreement could not be
reached to prevent this possi-
bility.
Mr.. Colladay explained that
the university was willing to
draw a covenant guaranteeing
for 20 years that the entrance
would not be constructed. He
said the present plan is to have
the entrance on lockwood park
way, which leads to Nebraska
avenue.
Questions Covenant.
Mr.. Wilkes said that, if the
court set aside the zoning COM
mission ruling, there would be
nothing to prevent the university
from putting the entrance wher-
ever it wanted it. He declared:
Frankly I am not certain a
covenant could be drawn that
would be binding"
Mr.. Colladay said if such a
covenant were made in con-
sideration of settlement of the
law suit. 1t would be binding
to all taking part.
MIR. Wilkes then commented
that there would be nothing to
prevent the District government
from deciding that an additional
exit was needed to the hospital
and through the eminent domain
process create another exit. He
said if it was later decided that
the exit was needed, "a way
could and would be found"
Another university witness, AL
vim B. Barber, a traffic CONSUL
tant who lives here, testified
that any additional traffic Gre
ated by the hospital could be
absorbed easily by Nebraska
avenue.
The hearing began last week.
The university and the hospital
still are presenting their case.
