ITO shoot right at somebody
and then say they didn't in

poor argument. Mr.. Muse was
a popular young man and re-
garded as an excellent citizen

were never any charges against

It was the first fatality in
years in the feud that has pro-
voked many incidents and yes
terday impelled the Virginia
Senate to hasten action on an
oyster compact with Maryland.
It would set up a bi-State COM
mission figuring to lessen the
friction between the States.
The measure now must pass
the House of Delegates.
Simmering for Years
The war has simmered for
years. sometimes breaking into
the open as Maryland author
tiles go after oystermen dredg-
ing in the river which is owned
by Maryland. Dredging with
scoops is outlawed because
Maryland contends it ruins the
oyster beds.
In most incidents involving
Maryland VS.. Virginia residents,
the injured State usually tries
to shield its citizens against
the other. This rises chiefly
from the Virginia contention
that dredging is not nearly the
sin Marylanders think it is
probably because the river is
not Virginia's.
Howard Shenton, supervising
inspector for the Southern
Maryland's tidewater fishing
forces, Indicated he would
press for illegal dredging
charges against Mr.. King and
Mr.. Griffith.
II am satisfied that we have
a case against them" said Mr..
Bowling. who would handle
the case.
1t was Mr.. Shenton. who
touched of yesterdays incident
by reporting the Virginians
were dredging.
A fight was sure to develop if
the charges are filed, since Mr..
King and Mr.. Griffith probably
would fight extradition from
Virginia to Maryland. In that
event, the Governor of Virginia
would be asked to turn the men
over for prosecution.
Maryland'S version of the
shooting came out yesterday
afternoon after a meeting at
La Plata conducted by Edward
s. Digges, Maryland assistant
attorney general to the tide
water commission.
Mr.. Digges said complaints
had been received from resi-
dents Of both States the past

ing. Tuesday a real strong"
complaint was heard from the

The House before the Easter

Stadium Offer
Turned Down
BYRedskins
100000 Bosis
For Computing Rent
Asked by Team

The Redskins yesterday
turned down the Armory
Boards terms on the rental u
the proposed Municipal Sta
dunn.
They said they would pay nc
more per season than is pei
cent Of the first 100000 IN
receipts, plus 10 per cent Of
the excess. This reply was for
mally made yesterday in q let
ter from Bernard I. Nordlinger
lawyer for the city's profession
al football team, to Chester H
Gray, Corporation Counsel.
The Armory Board, which
is responsible for building and
operating the stadium, last
week offered a lease based on
the teams paying is per cent
lof the first 100000 plus 10
per cent.
Highest Rental
Mr.. Nordlinger, in his letter
said the sum the team has
offered sis more than the rental
paid by any team in the Ma
tional Football League in a
civic stadium"
II am confident that some
arrangement can be worked out
satisfactory to everybody" Mr.
Nordlinger said today.
Yesterdays action was the
latest skirmish in a running
feud between George P. Mar
shall. the Redskins president
and George F. Shea, chairman
Of the Armory Board.
Mr.. Shea maintains that the
boards terms are indentical to
those Mr.. Marshall now pays
for the use of Griffith Stadium
Temporary Seats
Mr.. Marshall, however, points
out that the Griffith family, by
terms of the lease, bore the
expense of temporary seats and
their installation and removal
every season.
The problem, however, goes
deeper than the disagreement
over money.
Mr.. Marshall las been
chatting at the delay in begin
ming work on the SO million,
50,000-seat stadium. He has
expressed fear that his team
will have no place to play after
their lease for Griffith Stadium
expires after next season.
Mr.. Shea replied today that
the board expects TO purchase
extra seats, and install and re-
move them each season.
1T seems to the Armory
Board that Mr.. Marshall's ar
gument vanishes in mid-air be-
cause we have to do the same
thing, plus provide him with a
modern, multi-million dollar
stadium" Mr.. Shea said.
He said the board is caught
between the need to rent the
stadium and the obligation to
pay off some SO or $40 million
in bonds" required to construct
the stadium.
I'VE cannot justify-in face
Of that obligation "a lesser
rental than Mr.. Marshall is
now paying for a smaller and
more Anticipated stadium" he
said.

1T WAS NOT CROWDED.
There was not only room to
walk beneath the trees, there
was room to stretch out,
which the Rambler promptly
did. There we're little family
picnics about him. Many of
those, who were fortunate
enough to take the time to
see 1.-The cherry hung with
snow" were parents with pre-
Sabotage children.
Almost every adult had a
camera and some had sew
eral. There was a time when
a man with more than $500
worth of Photographic equip
ment around his neck was
a professional working for
National Geographic or Life.
Now they're all amateurs.
The ones with several cam
eras are a minority. Most of
the amateurs carried small,
simple, inexpensive cameras.
And they make the same
mistakes.
The Rambler had chosen
a beautiful tree to watch.
Just as in the fall, a maple
at the roadside will have each
leaf turned to the same bril-
liant copper hue, this tree
was perfect. Every blossom
was open.
When one of the light
clouds overhead shielded the
sun, the tree was pure white.
When the sun was out, it was
lightly tinted with pink.
This viewer found he was
not alone in his admiration
for this tree. A husband
wearing a white sport shirt,
out at the belt, stood under
1t and directed his wife to
take his picture at so feet.
Oh, we'll. In that picture
the human figure will be too
small to detract from the
beauty Of the tree.
A young wife stood under
the tree and pulled down a
branch while her husband
snapped her at Is feet. He'll
be able to recognize her. No
one else will.
A professional photogra-
pher would have posed his
model about 10 feet in front of
the camera with the tree well
in the background, or if she
is to be reaching for a branch
of blossoms, he would be sat-
isfied with picturing the
branch, not the whole tree.

find your hay and pasture fields

William Mitchell, extension
agronomist at the University of

falfa yields up to five tons per

Broiler Growers
Say Soybeans Key
To Reduced Costs

How to cut production costs
is always an important subject
among broiler producers. One
of the "hot" subjects currently
is the possibility of processing
raw soybeans locally to cut
costs of shipped-in soybean oil
meal and feed grade fat.
The University OF Delaware,
in cooperation with the indus
try, is looking for a method of
processing soybeans To- cally,
without great investment in
equipment, so that full food val
ue will be available to the broil-
er. Raw soybeans do not mea-
sure up in broiler diets unless
they are heat-treated. The prob
lem is to find methods of pro-
cessing that will be both econ
omical and effective.
Professor Tom D. Runnels of
the department of animal and
poultry industry is in charge of
nutrition tests. MIR. Howard c.
Hoyt of the agricultural engi-
neering staff is the process engi-
neer on the project One feed
ing experiment has just been
completed at the School of Ag-
riculture's Substation Division
at Georgetown.
Comparisons were made with
unextracted soybeans processed
in a meat scrap cooker and in
a commercial, continuousflow
type cooker.
The commercial cooker nor
mally handles extracted soybean
oil meal at high moisture un-
der a slight vacuum, but the
unextracted ground soybeans
would not flow properly and
had to be dried to about five
percent moisture in order for
them to move through the cook
er without clogging the machin-
cry.
Feed tests with this material
in the broiler ration, resulted in
poor growth and feed utiliza-
ton. Research has shown that
protein may be damaged when
heated at low moisture level.
These results indicate that ex-
periments in low moisture-cOok-
ing can be eliminated as pos
sibility for practical soybean
processing.
The batch processed consist
ed of cooking the ground soy
beans in a meat scrap cooker
with the steam jet connected to
the cooking chamber. To avoid
possible protein damage due to
cooking in a low moisture at
mosphere, enough water was
added to the ground beans to
increase their moisture content
to 81 percent. The beans were
cooked and agitated for 35 min
utes at maximum temperature
of about 2l2' F. at which time
the steam was cut off but the
agitation continued for another
five minutes to permit cooling.
