NEW YORK, (GlobaD - Young
sters watching the Archie Moore
Joey Maxim bout in Miami last
week were impressed with the lack
of enthusiasm in the crowd for
Moore. They commented on the
wild applause that greeted the
slightest furry on the part of Joey
Maxim, and on the quietude that
prevailed at the end of the fight
when Moore was declared winner.
We old timers could have reminded
them that this was, in fact, quite
a step forward for the deep South.
We've seen the day when such a
fight wouldn't even have been

relative.

Friday night, February ,, the
Carver Monarchs, who scored 20
points to their opponents (Gila
Bend) five in the first quarter,
finished recordbreaking clean
game by a score of 98-32, for their
ninth conference win of the same
amount of attempts. There were
only seventeen fouls called during
the game. Albert Nealy dropped in
twenty-five points to lead Carver
as highpoint man. Charles Chris
topher contributed nineteen points
to the score. Arnulfo Locio led
Gila Bend with eleven points. The
Carver Junior Varsity easily won
their game, by score of 88-44.
This was the Junior Varsity's
eighth win out of nine trials. Their
single loss was to Buckley, 21-13.
Tonight the Carver Monarchs
travel to Parker to engage in
conference game with the Parker
Broncos. Parker will have their
hands full trying to avenge the
66-45 defeat they suffered last
year. This should be an interest
ing game. The Monarchs will be
stepping high in an effort to get
their tenth conference win without
any defeat.
Tomorrow night the Monarchs
play the North High Mustangs at
Carver in a City League basket
ball game. Last year these two
schools played each other twice,
and both games were very exciting.
North High won 53-51, then Carver
won later in the season 1888. The
two coaches aren't strangers either,
since North Highs coach was
coaching Scottsdale, the State Glass
B Champions, at that time. SO
come out and see the Monarchs in
their last game of the-season rope
and tie the Mustangs. The junior
Varsity game starts at GAS pm.
The West Central District Bask-
etball Tournament will begin We'd
nesday, February II, at Peoria
Union High School at PEORIA Ari-
zona. The Monarchs first game
is at 500 am, Wednesday, against
the Peoria Panthers. Carver has
beaten Peoria in season play g.

the tournament.

The Commissioners postponed
action yesterday on plans to set
up fringe parking lots on South
Capitol street and the Carter
Barron Amphitheater.
Col. Giles Evans, Assistant En-
gineer Commissioner, told them
it would cost the District about
100000 to put the entire system
into operation. This amount
would be spent gradually. It is
proposed to open only one lot on
South Capitol street at first and
to develop further areas as the
demand increases.
The money would be spent on
surfacing the lots and providing
lighting, signs, shelter and &C
cess roadways.
The money would come from
the Motor Vehicle Parking Fund.
which is the money collected in
the parking meters throughout
the city.
The plan has been Endorsed by
the National Capital Planning
Commission and the Motor We
hicle Parking Agency. It requires
only the approval of the Com
miSSioners.
Commissioner Samuel Spencer

study the program.

Uniform Gas
Rates.0k' d for
North Virginia
Schedule Approved
For sc, 900 Served
By Washington Firm
By the Associated Press

RICHMOND, Va, April o.
The State Corporation Commits
sion today approved a uniform
schedule Of gas rates for ap-
proximately $4,000 Northern Vir-
ginia customers of the Washing
ton Gas Light Co.
Effective May l, the new
schedule will result in a reduc-
ton of between 4 and 6 per
cent on bills of customers with
out gas furnaces. For those with
gas furnaces, the sec said,
rates will be increased slightly
more than 2 per cent.
Washington Gas Co. requested
a standard rate in Alexandria.
Falls Church and Arlington and
Fairfax Counties. sec ruled
the uniform schedule will apply
to meter readings taken on or
after May /.
Approximately half of the
$4,000 customers have space
heating appliances, according to
the sec.
Overall, the new schedule is
expected to produce $4,000 in
additional annual gross revenue,
or a net of about half that
amount. Last year, gas reve-
nues amounted to $6,310,490 the
accounting division said.
In general, customers with
typical monthly bills of about
$3.50 will get a slight decrease,
those between $3.50 and $60.15
will get a slight increase and
those over $60.15 will get a slight
decrease. according to sec
Counsel Norman S. Elliott.
The company's move for a
uniform schedule was made after
the sec last January approved
the merger of the Washington
Gas Light Co. with the Rosslyn
Gas Co., which had served the
Virginia Metropolitan area of
Washington as a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Washington Gas
Light.
Arlington and Fairfax Coun-
ties opposed the merger and the
new rates, but were overruled
by the sec in both cases.

Will the white cat scare the
Starlings or will she meet the
fate of the aluminium, two-faced,
stuffed and mechanical owls?
The Tree Division of the Dis
trict. always willing to try a
new anti-starling device, isn't
optimistic, but it will give kitty
a chance. The division has been
given two plaster of paris cats
equipped with mirrors to scare
away the pesky birds.
CASTOR M. Crisp. 2112 o street
NV. has presented his anti
starting creation to the District.
He theories that a bird will see
one of his fellow travellers in the
mirror and believe the unfortu-
nate one is about to become cat
food.
John w. BatSon, superintend-
ent of the Tree Division, will try
it out. He and William A..
Aanten, superintendent OF Sani-
tation. are the two District Off
Gals most interested in starlings.
Recall Owls Fate.
But confidentially they expect
the cats to have the same effect
as the many varieties of fake
owls tried. The owls scared the
starlings away for a few days
but were soon exposed by the
canny birds. When they began
taking the same liberties with
the owls as they are accustomed
to taking with pedestrians, the
authorities removed the phony
birds.
Mr.. Batson has had success
