Architects Recruit Foes
To Capitol B oondoqqIe'

New York architects Lorimel
Rich and Ralph Walker are
kicking up a considerable fuss
about the plan approved by Con.
gress for the extension of the
east front of the Capitol.
They have started a drive tc
interest members of the Ameri-
can Institute of Architects ovel
the country to oppose what they
call a 1915 million boondoggle. ;
The renovation project, they say
would "desecrate" the Capitol
Their views were carried in the
current issue of the Architec-
tural Forum.
Since the magazines April is
sue went to press with its edi-
torial. the New York chapter oil
the ALA has adopted a resolu-
ton opposing the project and is
writing to members of the House
and Senate.
Studied for Years
The project has been under
study for many years. The COM
plant has been that, while many
changes have been made in the
structure of the Capitol, both be-
fore and since its burning by the
British, the plan never has beer
completed. 1t is proposed tc
move the east front some dis
lance outward from the present
line of the outside wall, but il
would still be within the line OF
the eastern extremity of the
House and Senate wings.
One of the purposes is prac.
tical. Advocates say this woulc
afford considerable additional
amount of space within the
building for committee and con.
ference rooms.

BALTIMORE, April 20.-Mil-
lard E. Tydings, fresh from a
successful invasion of an enemy
stronghold in Anne Arundel
County, today takes his cam
paign into his home county

Mr. Tydings wound up a two
day foot campaign in Anne

optimism.
From my reception in the
lower part of Anne Arundel to
Brooklyn Park. I am convinced
I have an excellent chance OF
carrying the county," Mr.. Tyd-

The former Senator also re-

Mr.. Tydings said that since
Senator Phipps had released hi,
Organization from being bounC
by his personal Endorsement
many of his most powerful lead
erS had swung away from Mr.
Mahoney. He declined to nam,
them, but said they ARE working
very hard for me-"
Mr.. Tydings made no bones
about depending on much of hi
support in the county on al
anti-Lowman campaign that i

Lewis, Real Estate Editor
OF Stor, Wins New Award

Robert J. Lewis, real estate
editor of The Star, today was
named by the Home Builders
Association of Metropolitan
Washington as winner of its an
Inual award for journalistic
excellence for the third success
Isive year.
Mr.. Lewis is president of the
National Association of Real
Estate Editors.
Over All Local Papers
His work was named best of
entries made by real estate edi-
tors of all local papers. The con-
test was judged by an associa-
ton committee headed by Hor-
ace .. Crawford, professor of
journalism at American Univer-
sity. Charles Keehler, an editor
with the Building Research In
stitute of the National Academy
of Sciences, and Howard Mich
nick. member of the associa-
tons board of directors, were
the other judges.
! Mr.. Lewis, winner of many
similar awards during the past
few years. was cited for merito-
rious service to the community
in real estate reporting.
1.-THE award was based on the
reporters conception and inter-
probation of sound ideas in the
field of home building and fol-
his presentation and selection oil
subjects in the best interests Of
. every living soul in the COM
munity," an association official
said.

to develop two-level under
ground garage under the paved
plaza Immediately east of the
Capitol. Also on the practical
side are plans for the develop
ment underground of a big new
restaurant to serve members and
employees of the House and SEN
ate.
On the aesthetic side, advo-
Gates of the plan say the project
not only would complete the de-
sign of the Capitol but would
also enhance its beauty. With
the extension of the east front,
they point out. the huge dome
no longer would seem to be lean
ing over the east wall.
Actually, the dome itself does
not overhang the east wall but
the big skirt beneath it does.
Another consideration is the fact
that the central portion of the
structure is based on limestone
so soft that it must be painted
from time to time to prevent the
wear of weather.
None of these arguments, how
ever, has satisfied the opposi-
ton. An editorial in the Archi-
tectural Forum. signed by Doug
las Haskell, editor, declared:
Nothing Forum has recently
advocated has drawn wider IA
vorable response than the re-
newed push to preserve the Cap
itol in Washington"
Petition to Rayburn
The society of Architectural
Historians, joining in the pro-
test move. some time ago sent a
petition to House Speaker Ray
burn. The Architectural Forum
said Mr.. Rayburn's reply, to
Francis P. Douglas. a reporter
for The Washington Star, was
that the work would proceed
The magazine added that Mr.
Rayburn hoped to remove the
parked cars from the plaza. The
magazine went on to say Mr.
Rayburn could do this without
remodeling the east front of the
Capitol.
The Architectural Forum ar
ticle went on to say:
ut is hard to believe that
Speaker Rayburn can long re-
main in his present position OF
backing a sic million boondoggle
"a monumental folly against
the manifest wishes of a great
majority of his fellow country
men.
Lets repeat what the situa-
ton is. The proposal to move
the east front Of the Capitol
some SO feet forward is officially
intended to secure a few hearing
rooms and lunchrooms for Con-
greSsmen. plus a needed corridor
across the building bypassing the
public lobbys.
Move Held Unnecessary
ITO achieve these official aims,
1t is not necessary at all to push
forward a whole monumental
wall. We note the offer of the
ALAS board of directors to find
IA solution for these official aims
within the present envelope. Just
to make doubly sure, both Forum
and the Historians have sug-
gested an amendment to the act
so the first step can be a dis
passionate report by a 'front.'

CAMBRIDGE, Md, April 90
George P. Mahoney turned his
political hat around today as he
moved down the Eastern Shore
from Kent County, where he is
an differentiation candidate,
to Dorchester County. where he
has organization blessing.
AS he pulled out of Cambridge
this morning with Is carloads OF
local supporters in a campaign
caravan. Mr.. Mahoney re-
marked. Man. this is a lot diff
ferent than Kent"
Here in Dorchester, Mr.. Ma
honey's candidacy for the DEM
ocratic senatorial nomination in
Maryland's May Z primary has
the backing of the two local
major party factions headed by
Emerson c. Harrington and w.
Grason Winterbottom.
Mr., Mahoney planned to tromp
his way through Dorchester to-
day in much the same manner
he has in four other Eastern
Shore counties this week.
Mr.. Mahoney paused for a
moment in the community of
Secretary to say that the most
important contribution any Fed
eral farm policy can make to the
national welfare lis in the pres
ervation of the farm which is
not just a commercial enter
prise but a family home"
Mr.. Mahoney. who previously
has taken a stand against the
Democratic farm bill vetoed last
week by President Eisenhower,
said. I'VE continue to draft
farm bills which give all the
breaks to the big commercial
operator while the little fellow
does not get the consideration
he deserves"
He said about 100000 family
type farms have been aban-
doned in the United States since
1910.
In Kent County. where he
campaigned yesterday, the domi-
nant Democratic organization led
for many years by Arthur Brice,
70, former Maryland Tidewater
Fisheries Commission chairman,
is working for Willard E. Tyd-
lngs, Mr. Mahoney's principal
opponent.
Mr.. Mahoney took time out
from his Eastern Shore tour last
night to fly to Cumberland for
a rally in his behalf. He re-
turned here by chartered plane
this morning after taking of
from Cumberland in a snow
storm.
At the rally. he criticized
Democrats who believe that
Democratic policies are for ex-
port only"
They are strictly foreign pol
icy Democrats" he said. who
will support a Democratic Point
-Four program for the people of
Alleganv as the rankest kind
works project for the people of
Allegheny as the rankest kind
of socialism"
Some observers felt his re-
marks were aimed at Mr.. Tyd-
ings. who has emphasized for
eign policy and world affairs in
many Of his campaign talks.
Il am a foreign policy Demo-
crat and a domestic policy Dem
ocrat, and l am not ashamed
OF it," Mr.. Mahoney told his
Cumberland supporters.
He said that, for a long time,
Democrats have been losing "a
sort of cold war to the Repub-
licans who have cried so
loudly and 50 long about these
terrible. socialistic Democratic
and policies.
I'VE Democrats have nothing
to apologize for" he added. "If

AS the two musicians talked
about music, naturally
Barnee mentioned that he
does his own orchestrationS.
Whoever heard of a band
leader doing his own arrang-
ing?" Mr.. Myers scoffed.
You got a tune in your
head?" Barnee asked, picking
up a menu and rapidly draw
ing some lines on the back.
Mr.. Myers always has a tune
in his head.
Whistle it," said Barnee.
Mr.. Myers did. AS he whis-
tied, the band leader rapidly
took down the notes. A half an
hour later, the band was play
ing it, complete with trick
solos for piano, clarinet and
trumpet.
The band played it four
times during the evening,
each time to increasing APP
plause from the patrons, al
though nobody but Barnee
and those at Mr.. Myers table
knew its source.

Why do they call it Ten

Originally this nebuIOus

That was corrupted later
into Tenley Town, and fin

Tenley Town was listed in
the city directory as a "pOst

all. What he wants to do is

to places like Fredericksburg

I've been seeing more of
the country around Washing

purchased where extra room was
needed. Hills were bulldozed and
gulleys filled to make for easy
walking. The flow Of the land. "
according to Jones, is excellent.
The course will be $500 yards
from the back tees, possibly the
longest nine in the District. and
1929 yards from the regular
tees. The par is SO. The greens
average 65 per cent larger than
the other green's at Congress
sional.
No Similar Holes
Scenic feature of the new nine
is the 150-yard finishing hole,
with the tee and green separated
by a huge lake which supplies
the watering system for the en-
tire course. Most Of the fairways
are bordered by pine trees, but
are not too tight.
The outstanding feature of the
course in Cox opinion is that
no two holes are similar, and that
all have character. There are
just 81 sand traps at present,
and only a few additional fair
way traps will be added.
From the tournament tees it
appears to be an extremely diff
ficult course. and it will be tough
enough to maintain Interest
from the regular tees. WHIT
