MILTON S. KRONHEINI
has been pitching hard ball
baseball on every clement
Sunday in this field for more
than 40 years.
As he threw down his glove
in disgust and slipped into
q sweater held for him. he
said:
Last week they played
perfect ball-not an error. I
don't know what's happened
to them. Maybe it's the chill
in the air"
Could he go the entire
game?
"Of course I can" he said.
"You know we play in Grit
nth Stadium once a year, to
let the boys have the thrill
Of their spikes biting into
big league turf. It's our little
world series.
I'VE played there three
weeks ago, and I had TO 60
10 innings. We lost in the
10th. : to 5. Ny arm was all
right. ] can last as long as
my legs hold out"
The Rambler is tempted
to indulge IN ALTERATION and
call him the millionaire
moundsman." But nothing
snnoys Milton Kronheim
more than the suggestion
that he might be wealthy.
His company has the dis
tribution Of National Distil-
lers products and other lines
OF liquors and wines in
Washington and Baltimore.
I'VE ally have two
games going out here" he
said, but the cold and
threat Of rain have kept US
down TO one today. We don't
stop after the Worlds Series,
One year the Sundays were
good right through the fall
and we played baseball until
January"

Council Praises
Bridge Decision
Urges Foes TO Stop
Impeding Project

The District Commissioners
were strongly commended by
the Federal City Council today
for their decision to push ahead
with immediate construction OF
the six-lane Constitution ave-
niue bridge over the Potomac.
The commentator was voted
unanimously by the executive
committee Of the organization
of civic and business leaders at
a Mayflower Hotel meeting.
The council also commended
Federal planners for their re-
cent approval Of bridge plans,
and called on any officials who
still oppose the bridge to drop
any further efforts to impede
the project in view Of the eriti-
cal need for new bridge lanes
over the river.
Cites TraiIie Studies
Following Is q text Of the
councils resolution:
Whereas. oficial trafiic
studies has shown conclu-
sively that Washington has
urgent need for q new cross
ing over the Potomac River
in the vicinity Of Constitution
avenue: and. whereas. con-
struction OF this crossing has
been delayed far too LONG by
controversy over whegt. er il
should take the form Of a
bridge or a tunnel. and
Whereas. impartial and
Thorough investigation by the
Federal City Council has dem
lonstrated beyond any doubt
that a six-lane bridge across
the Potomac would be superior
in terms Of traffic capacity,
construction cost and operat-
ing economy. to a four-lane
crossing Of any type; and
Approaches Adequate"
Whereas. studies by the De-
partment OF Highways have
proved that street systems or
both sides Of the river. either
now existing or as planned
have adequate capacity to &C.
commodate traffic volumes oil
Ia six-lane bridge.
Now, therefore be it resolved
that members of the Federal
City Council ofiicially commend
the District Commissioners and
oficials Of the Department oil
Highways and the National
Capital Planning Commission
for their decision to press aheaC
with this badly needed project
and to clear all existing OBJ.
stacles to its completion.
1T is our sincere hope that
in the overall interests Of oui
community. any person WHIT
may still oppose construction Of
Q six-lane bridge across thu
Potomac. win cease forthwith
any further efforts to impede
or delay this project.
