A. Portuguese explorers in

people TO sniff snuff.
@. Didn't people use to
carry around snuff boxes?
= A. Oh, yes. This was be-
sse storekeepers once re-

Using snuff spoons, they
scooped out the stuff and
placed 1t in the purchasers
personal snuff box. Now you
can't do that anymore.

CARELESS Of any mass transit
system as now proposed"
Stymies Planning
Until the question Of the
bridge has been settled, Virginia
cannot plan major portions of
Interstate Route 66 because
we have no way of knowing thu
number of lanes that will be
required" Mr.. Davis said.
The letter explained that
Virginia planned on having six
lanes on Route Sc north of the
Capital Beltway to a junction
with the Dulles access road,
which is a four-lane freewaH
The Virginia plan called for an
eight-lane freeway between this
junction to the point where
Route 266 would turn off to
the Three Sisters island site.
Then Route 66 would be-
come sixlanes to the Theodore
Roosevelt bridge, which by
law" is only six lanes, Mr..
Davis said.
If the Three Sisters bridge Is
not built. the cost Of carrying
eight lanes on to a large inter-
change at the Rosslyn side of
the Key bridge will be tre-
mendous," Mr.. Davis said.
The Virginia officials agreed
to the connection with the
Dulles road on the assumption
that the Three Sisters bridge
would be available for some Of
this traffic, Mr.. Davis said.
