The st. Thomas Chamber
of Commerce has written to

opposition to legalized gamb-

THE future of the islands

afford the luxury of legalized

BarnYard Touch Put
Into Music Lessons
AT West School

Pupils at West Elementary
School listened to mooing cows,
chirping crickets and a menag-
erie-full of other country sounds
today.
While it may not have sounded
it, the barnyard concert was
strictly educational. It was part
of a new series of 15-minute
music lessons which District ele-
mentary pupils will begin hear
ing next month by radio.
Station WGMS, which broad
casts children's symphony con-
certs into schoolrooms, has de-
vised the new musical series with
the help of school officials. Start
ing January 3, the station will
broadcast two lessons weekly, in
tended to give young hearers a
grounding in music fundamen-
tails.
Programs Endorsed.
Mrs. Evelyn SWarthout, Wash
ington concert pianist and wife
of Patrick Hayes, concert man
ager here, will conduct the pro-,
grams, which have the indorse-
ment of the Board of Education.
This morning Mrs. Hayes, M.
Robert Rogers, WGMS president,
and two representatives of the
Citizens Committee for Music
in the Public Schools, which is
helping to launch the series,
visited West School for a trial
run. Mr.. Rogers brought along
a tape recorder and recording
of two of the first programs.
The recorder was set up first
in Miss Audrey Bluper's first
grade classroom. 1t was here
that the youngsters heard the
barnyard noises.
Animals initiated.
Mrs. Hayes, speaking from the
recording machine, introduced
a growing rooster, a COW. quack-
ing ducks an deven the comical
grunts from a big-pen. They
got a big laugh.
Then some man-made music
came on-first a Tschaikowsky
orchestral piece initiating the
of cats. then a piece
by Rameau representing a hen,
played by Mrs. Hayes on the
piano.
The children beat time on
their desks to the next piece,
representing a Whistling man
strolling with his dog, and then
came a mosquito dance, very
realistic. 1t was old Mcdonald
and his farm that brought the
house down, however. The chill
dren chimed right in with the
words.
Get Advanced Lesson.
The tape machine then was
moved into Mrs. Lorene N. Muir
phys sixth-grade room across
the hall. Here the children got,
a more advanced lesson, includ-
ing demonstrations of the flute,
piccolo and clarinet, as well as
the basic principles on which
instruments operate.
Mrs. Hayes demonstrated the
latter, in the recording, by
plucking stretched rubber band,
blowing across the mouth of an
empty bottle. and banging a fry
ing pan with a spoon.
All the instruments of the
symphony orchestra will be COW
cred during the course of the
% week upper grade series.
Fourth, fifth and sixth graders
will hear this series and the pri-
mary graders the other.
Each weeks program will be
given twice. Series A, for young
er pupils, will be broadcast at
1880 pm. Wednesdays and IL
am. Thursdays, and series B at
1::30 pm. Mondays and II am.

Oyster War
Flares Anew
One Reported Shot
As Plane Chuses
Boat in Potomac

The ancient Potomac River
oyster war has blazed anew with
shot-punctuated chase Of Vir-
ginia poaching suspects by a
Maryland patrol plane.
One man was reported slightly
injured in the gunfire that cli-
NAKED two-hour pursuit OF a
35-foot Virginia oyster boat by
the Maryland Fisheries sea-
plane yesterday.
However, Maryland officials
said pontoons of the plane were
riddled by rifle and shotgun pei
lets and Virginians angrily de-
clared that pistol bullets hit a
wharf and whizzed over the heads
of a crowd watching the action
from the shore.
Hearing Called Tomorrow.
The latest flareup between
Maryland conservation officials
and the Virginia oystermen will
be reviewed tomorrow in Annap-
oils by the Tidewater Fisheries
Commission.
An oral report was given to
the commission soon after yes
terday'S melee, but tomorrow
inquiry will be full-scale affair.
Conflicting stories came from
the river banks and there was
disagreement between officials of
the two States over which should
impound the boat.
The air, land and water &C
tion began about 8 am. yester-
day when Robert E. Whipp, pilot
of the plane, and his observer,
j. w. Ryland, chief inspector of
the Virginia Fisheries Commits
sion. radioed the Leonardtown,
(Md) emergency control center
that their craft had been fired on.
1t ended two hours later when
the alleged poachers ran their
boat ashore near Tidewells, in
Lower Machodoc Greek on the
Virginia side, and fled on foot.
In the interval. five vessels of
Maryland's oyster navy" at
least one Virginia conservation
vessel and police of both States
were ordered into action.
Warrants Issued.
Later in the day, warrants for
three Virginians were issued by
F. F. Chandler. commemorative
Attorney for Westmoreland
County.
Mr.. Chandler said warrants
issued on complaints filed by In
spector Ryland named Ernest
Harding. jr.. of Coles Point, Va.
Raymond Chatham and his
brother, Richard, both of Chat
hams Village near Tidwells.
Harding was charged with
failing to keep the boats name
and license number in plain
view. Raymond Chatham was
charged with attempting to in
timidate and impede an officer
in discharge of his duties by
displaying firearms. Richard
Chatham was charged with
dredging oysters in the Potomac,
a felony, and Mr.. Chandler said
he also would be charged with
attempting to ram the plane and
with concealing the boats Off
cial number.
Removal of oysters from the
Potomac by any means other
than hand tongs is illegal and
MIR. Chandler said oystering on
Sunday is banned by statute.
Trout Boat Seized.
Ownership of the 35-foot boat
was attributed to Richard
Chatham. It was seized by
Westmoreland County Sheriff
Charles B. English. Robert Lee
Shores. Maryland Fisheries Com
mission chief inspector, who
flew to the scene from his Deal
Island MD home, said he asked
permission to impound the craft
but the sheriff refused.
Mr.. Chandler said the accused
boatmen will be given hearings
at Montross sometime after
Christmas. Mr.. Shores said
Maryland will file charges later.

W.,k. & A. Bid
To oReIocateIt
Terminal Aired
Citizen Spokesman
Support Proposal;
US. Agencies Oppose

The proposed move of the
w. M. & A. Transit Co.'S down.
town terminal to Seventeenth
street and Pennsylvania avenue
today met approval from citi-
zen spokesmen. but apprehen-
sion from adjacent Federal
agencies.
The Public Utilities Commits
sion opened hearing at the
District Building on w. M. 81 A. s
application to move the terminal
from its present site at Eley-
enth street and Pennsylvania
avenue NV.
The company contends the re-
location would serve it's patrons
more conveniently by being
closer to their work in the CEN
tral business district, and en-
courage more people to use pub
lie transportation, cutting down
traffic congestion.
CTC Intervenes.
The Capital Transit Co. has
interviewed. holding the extension
of WM.81A service would be
competitive with established
transit lines, that Capital Transit
now serves the public convent
ence adequately, and that the
proposed move would slow down
Capital Transit vehicles on the
streets involved
Joseph a. Kaufman, chair
man Of the Public Utilities Com
mittee of the Federation of
Citizens Associations, supported
the move, as did Mrs. Edward B.
Norris. representing the Randle
Highlands Citizens Association
and herself.
Mrs. Morris said she believed
the move would help citizens
using the service by permitting
them to get to their downtown
destinations without paying two
fares. She said some Southeast
residents are served only by
w. M and A..
S0usa Bridge Area.
Noting that the move was
proposed to get more. people
onto transit lines and out of
their cars. she said that the
more automobiles that can be
taken off the streets in the Sou
sa Bridge neighborhood, the bet
ter the area is served.
Walter F.. Mulligan, president
of the Prince Georges County
Civic Federation, also favored
the move, stating it would pro-
vide more attractive service for
Prince Georges residents to the
Randle Highlands area.
He said it would be to the
advantage of many Government
employees to have the terminal
located closer to their offices.
He said he felt sure many would
leave their cars at home and
use buses with the added con-
venience.
Victor Purse, deputy chief of
the State Department Division
of Protocol. questioned the loca-
ton of the terminal in the vi
cinity of the Blair Lee House
where the Government houses
distinguished visitors. He said
very Stringent regulations would
be required to insure security
and avoid congestion.
While he did not definitely
oppose the move and expressed
favor of any moves to relieve
traffic congestion, he suggested
that the company make sure to
contact the State Department
and the police to see what fac
tors might be involved with re-
spect to the security and dignity
of visitors.
Judge Don Laramore of the
United States Court of Claims
expressed opposition to any
additional noise and gas fumes
in the vicinity of the court, at
Seventeenth street Just off Penn
