Slot Machine
CHARGE
Gets Support
3 Delegates Say
Mitchell Had Told
Them About Offer
By PAUL HOPE
Star staff writer

ANNAPOLIS, Mar. i6.-Three
Prince George County delegates
revealed today that Clarence
M. Mitchell III, told them
about a bribe offer from slot
machine interests the day be-
fore he disclosed 1t on the
floor Of the House of Delegates.
The delegates, said Mr..
Mitchell told them about it
Wednesday night during a chat
after the Governors bill to
abolish slot machines failed by
two votes in the House.
The director Of the Maryland
} criminal Justice commission
meanwhile said he has asked
Attorney General Robert F.
Kennedy to help investigate the
reported attempted bribe.
"Who's Getting Pald?"
The director, John j. Har-
baugh. said he wants Federal
investigators to determined
where the money Is coming
from. who's getting paid and
why we in Maryland are per-
mitting this kind Of thing"
A State Police investigation
began Friday. Police Capt.
Thomas Smith said he had
Talked with Delegates Marvin
Mandel, acting speaker of the |
House, and w. Dale Hess, Dem
ocratic majority leader, but
that neither delegate had more
information on the matter. Mr..
Smith said he also planned to
talk with Delegate j. Glenn
Beall, jr.. Republican minority
leader.
Mr.. Mitchell declared on the
House floor Thursday that he
had been offered $500 Monday
night to vote against the bill.
There has been considerable
skepticism among lawmakers
about the alleged bribe.
One Of the Prince Georges
delegates. who said the con-
versation with Nj. Mitchell too
place in the Shaw House which
contains the offices of several
delegations. said he asked Mr..
Mitchell why he didn't discose
the bribe offer on the floor Of
the House. The next day Mr..
Mitchell did.
Feared For Family
Mr.. Mitchell said he hadn't
done 1t earlier because he was
afraid Of the effect It might
have on his family. He said
his wife Is pregnant.
Two Prince Georges delegates
also said they were approached
recently in an Annapolis bar
by q man who asked them to
'go into the back" and talk
about slot machines. They said
the man, whose name neither
of them knew, wanted them to
vote against the slot machine
bill.
One interpreted the CONVEX
sation as leading toward an Of
fer of money. The other one,
who said the man was ''half /
drunk" said there was never
any indication that any money
would be offered. Both dele
gates said they left when they
found out what the man
wanted.
Another Prince Georges dele
gate said he received two phone
calls several weeks ago from
someone who offered $4,000
"split any way you want 1t"
II the Prince Georges delega-
ton would not legislate pin
ball machines out of the county.
He said it was a woman's voice
and one that sounded fam
liar. Anti-pinball legislation.

Georges County. has passed

fashions, your figure. One
shouldn't wait until the last
moment before any special oc-
casion to find out if a new make
up is becoming, or if a new
dress fits to perfection.
Make sure in advance that
the new makeup goes on
smoothly; that the dress fits;
that you have the proper foun-
dations to shape a fine figure.
This seasons daytime fash
ions are casual, but for evening
they're elegant. If your party IS
to be an elaborate one at which
you'll wear a figure-following
crepe or sheer wool hostess
gown. consider a corselet as
your shapemaker. The one-piece
foundation is ideal underline
for any dress = long or short =
that fits close to the figure, for
it absolutely bans bulges!
For a dress with a full skirt,
bra-lette is a good choice, for
it contours the bustline, mini
mizes the midriff, smooths just
the upper curve of the hipline.
For shift styles, and the nu-
merous new dresses that drape
gracefully from an Empire
waistline, wear a softly shaping
brassiere and a pantie girdle or
girdle with firm hip control.
Shifts and Empire styles, even
though not closely fitted, appear
smartest over controlled curves.
Naturally it's wise to select
foundations along with outer
fashions to insure perfect fit.
This is particularly true of spe-
cial-occasion clothes in which
you want to look your very best!

SWAMPOODLE

tically every man, woman and child living
there was an habitual pipe smoker Though
long forgotten as a neighbOrhOOd, this section
gained Immortality in the world of music. John
Philip S0usa, the March King" who was born
and reared on its outskirts, put it into song
titled "Pipetown Sandy"
COwtown was another welInamed section.
In the latter part of the 18th century, it lay
in the northwest, north of what is now Florida
avenue (what was then the boundary of the
central city)near old Seventh street road, now
Georgia avenue. The livestock Of SwampOodle
and Pipetown were nothing compared to the
animal world Of Cowtown. An old Washington
Star story reports of that district:
Here every home owner had one or more
cows and as many pigs and geese as they could
afford to keep, and as for dOgs and goats it
would have taken some one with tabulating
machine to have arrived at correct number"
The people of Cowtown are remembered
as law-abiding citizens. But in the 1870s when
officials decided animals couldn't run at large
anywhere in the city, the residents Of CowtOwn
couldn't abide by the law. It is noted in reports
Evening star., 1963-12-29

of the day that more than once the pound
master out to capture strays was hit in the
head by flying brick or bottle
Now dominating the area that was Cow
town are a variety of landmarks, including
old Griffith Stadium, Howard University.
Freedmen's Hospital and its new annex, and
Mcmillan reservoir.
The really tough sections of Washington in
the old days can easily be recognized by their
descriptive names: Murder Bay, HeIls Bottom,
and BloodfieId
All of south Washington was at one time
known as The Island. The name derived from
the area having been cut off from the mainland
of the District by the old Tiber canal
BlO0dfield was situated partly on the bor-
derlineS of the southwest and southeast Sec
tions of the city. It was considered one of the
most dangerous spots in the city. One historian
notes I'm Bloodfield, the less genteel segment
of Washingtons population vented its high
spirits and criminal tendencies on one
another's heads. Much blood iOGs shed there"
The neighbOrhood today is in a state of
change. Mainly a commercial area, its dominat

ing structure is the Washington Star building
Private low income housing scattered in what
was BlOOdfield is expected to give way to the
Capitol Hill restoration now sweeping into the
area.
HelfS Bottom was as rough as Bloodfield.
1t sat south Of COwtown, roughly bounded by
Q and streets on the south and north and
running from Ninth to Twelfth streets NV.
The area became stepped in vice and
lawlessness through an act Of Congress. So
that Civil War veterans at the Soldiers Home
wouldn't be such easy marks for gin mills and
sharpies, Congress in 1891 passed what was
known as the mile limit" law. It prohibited
the sale of intoxicants within a mile of the
Home Thus the southern boundary of HelIs
Bottom became the northern limit for bar
rooms and the area became sort of boom
town.
Residents of the area today see new boom
in the form of redevelOpment. The bulldOzers
are now at work in this stlyresidential area
which long ago forgot it was the home Of, as
one writer recalls, bad men, police fighters,
gamblers, crooks and descendants of Cain, of
both sexes, who were generally inclined to
regard 81 as high valuation to put on human
life"
Bloodfield and Hell's Bottom were tough,
but there was one place tougher. That was the
aptly named area Murder Bay.
Murder Bay came into existence in the
mid-10OOs and flourished during the Civil War.
1t covered the area now occupied by the Com
merce Department, the Ellipse and the Wash
ington Monument
The camp followers, thieves and killers
that tagged behind the troops into Washington
during the Civil War drifted into the notorious
locality. It consisted mainly of shanties, novels
and saloons, with its one row oftw0-StOry brick
buildings standing where the Commerce De-
partment now stands) being houses ofpr0stitu-
tiOn. There were no pavements in Murder Bay
The area lived up to its name, as q news
paper account of 1888 indicates:
Zone of the first murders about this time
Civil War; that brought attention to Murder
Bay was the killing of Negro named Rideout
No one knew how it occurred nor did the
efforts of the police result in finding a single
clue to his murderer. Then began a series of
crimes which continued for the next four or
five years. Men were known to 60 into Murder
Bay and were not heard of again until their
bodies were discovered in the canal or found
buried in ash dumps Robberies Of the most
daring nature occurred in rapid succession.
Men were carried from the streets into this
locality and stripped of whatever they pos
sessed. lucky, indeed, if they escaped with
their lives"

as GAINESVILLE, Fla, having been
told of the camp by a resident
of the county.
The boys were put through
the PAGES by Consoli and Thrift
and were rated in every facet of
play. Running speed was timed,
throwing speed was clicked,
accuracy was judged and of
course complete batting records
were jotted down for future
Pirate use.
To illustrate the meaning of
such camps to major league
aspirants, the fellow from
Florida, Gary Lawrence, paid
to fly up here and participated
with Is stitches in his leg, the
victim of a football accident in
a previous week.
