KENNEDY ASKS 35 BILLION FOR DEFENSE
TAKES STRONG STAND ON BERLIN NEW TAKE
Evening star., 1961-07-15

In Georgetown antiquity is
revered. 1t admittedly is the
oldest part of town. Further
more. it is a prestige address.
One of the things that
make it desirable is its ex-
clusiveness. There is just so
much of the area to go
around. Recently that area
has shrunk to nothing with
a consequent set Of real es-
tate values that borders on
the fantastic.
This demand by incom-
ing residents, well-heeled Of
course, is going to be met If
it Is at all possible. It just
takes a little ingenuity. Jay
F. Harris and Lloyd P. Salyer
are two builders who have
met the challenge.
This weekend they are
ready to unveil their answer
to the old lament that the
gravy train was great while
the run lasted but now the
old steam engine has ground
to a halt merely because it
ran out Of building. space.
Bought Church
Mr.. Salyer and Mr.. Harris
licked the problem by buy
ing the old Calvary Gospel
Church, just east Of Wiscon-
sin avenue and Q street NV.
With the church went q
sizable piece Of land.
They hired architect Wal
ter Marlowe and created their
own street.-The first George
town has had in many a year.
They called it Suffers lane.
Oddly enough there was
not too much opposition from
Georgetown citizens or the
District Building. They took
a look at the plans and ad-
mitted they would fit in per-
fectly with the, rest Of the
neighborhood.
Much research went into
duplicating authentic colonial
town houses that would blend

probably think the houses
were the work of Old World
craftsmen.
Old rose colored brick has
been used. Attention has been
given to doorways and shut
ters and the interioS appoint
ments reflect a bygone era.
The living, or drawing room,
Is located on the second floor
and has a fireplace.
The first floor which in the
usual type of English base
ment type of home is devoted
to a bare entrance, has q fin
ished recreation room with
bar and fireplace.
In the rear Of each Of the
houses Is q walled garden
with flagstone patio. For pri-
vacy a double stockade fence
surmounts a brick wall and q
small balcony lets off the
drawing room for a view Of
the garden.
Crystal chandeliers are
used in most formal rooms
and all the stairways are
equipped with solid brass
hand rails. The floors are
done in an antique wood ef-
feet and the walls in some Of
the rooms are wood-paneled.
Modern Devices
Tucked out Of sight to keep
UP the appearances Of an
tiquity are the usual modern
devices that are found in the
most contemporary homes.
Both builders reached back
into the past when it came to
selecting a name for their
new street. They chose Suffers
lane because as far as
they could determine in read
ing the history of George
town that was the oldest
hostelry in the area.
Mr.. Salyer says no one can
locate Suffers Tavern exactly
other than that it was located
on Wisconsin avenue below
M street, probably on the
old port city'S water front.

built from the ground up and
would embody the latest in
modern devices.
Door cGmoufI0sed
Even the garage doors that
serve for the compulsory off
street parking are camou-
flaged to make them look like
colonial windows in an 18th
century home.
Nearly q years delay in the
building, which has just been
completed, came from resi-
dents in the area whose back
yard fences had been erected
on q loose rule Of thumb
basis.
When the two builders had
a survey made Of the church
property they found that
most of the fences extended
well onto land they had pur-
chased. They Immediately
served notice that they in
tended to build and wanted
the uSurped space.
The suits fell like the au-
tumn leaves. However. the
partners prevailed and finally
got going on their project.
Mr.. Salyer called on his
knowledge Of former remodel
ing jobs in Georgetown. New
ertheleSS, he was not satisfied
with what he had done in
adapting Georgetown houses
that had been revamped half
a dozen times into habitable
quarters.
Studied williamsburg
To remedy the situation he
went to Williamsburg, Va, to
study the material and handi-
work that went into that pro-
ject before attempting Suffers
lane.
He apparently learned his
lesson well. No doubt, q visi-

Opening lead: Jack Of clubs.
West leads the jack Of clubs,
and declarer may win either
in his own hand or in the
dummy. He has no particular
reason to do one rather than
the other. r
If South happens to win the
first trick in his hand, things
win work out very well for
him. He will lead . trump to
dummy's queen, dropping
East's ten. Then q low trump
back to the king will capture
the Jack and force out Vests
ace at the same time.
II declarer wins the first
club trick in dummy, he win
then lead Q low trump toward
his hand. East plays the ten,
South puts up the king, and
West has the chance to show
what ne Is made OF.
Must Act Naturally
West must refuse the trick.
but he must act naturally.
West must play the seven Of
spades as though he never
heard Of such Q thing as the
ace Of trumps.
II West can make this play
IcOnvincingly, South win think
that East has the ace Of
trumps. South win. be induced
to lead q low trump and
finesse diImmy's nine. AS 1t
turns out. this play VIII give
East . trump trick. and the
defenders win eventually win
the ace Of trumps and both

tract.
Now so back to the first
trump trick and see what hap

trumps Immediately. South
may very wen decide to play
dummy's queen Of spades on
the next round Of trumps In

he does so. he viii make the

Maj. Will Overgaard winds
up a brilliant three years as
coach of the Quantico Marines
Saturday as his team goes after
its third straight National Serv-
ice championship against Fort
Eustis in the Missile Bowl game

Overgaard has compiled a
29-5 record since taking over
as coach at the Virginia Marine
base in 1859. He will attend
classes at the Marine Corps
schools at Quantico in the near
future and then probably will
be shipped overseas, possibly to
Okinawa.
Quantico had a 9-3 record

Carroll High School, a power
IN the Catholic League for

expected to field its most potent
basketball team this season,
both have found the early
going rugged.
The two Catholic League
teams lost their opening games

The Lions bowed before Phelps,

Mackin jumped in front, 80,

Shinq|er's Pressure Shot
Wins for Riders in Opener

Aaron Shingler of Roosevelt
High School has provided the
first last-second heroics of the
young scholastic basketball sea-
son, and he accomplished the
feat under just about the great
est pressure imaginable.
Shingler sank a free throw
with l second left yesterday
to give Roosevelt a 47-46 VIC
tory over Chamberlain at
Roosevelt. The 6-foot-3 actu-
ally had a two-shot foul, but
had the first one taken away
because he took longer than the
allotted 10 seconds to take the
shot.
In other games yesterday
involving Interhigh League
teams, Spingarn made it two
straight with an 84-53 past

garn; CardozO also won its
second by beating Hoffman
Boston, 1912, at the Arling-

Substitute Freddie Paytor

throws to pull Roosevelt into a

winning foul shot. His free
throws came with Sc seconds
