RICHMOND, Va, September 6— Descendants of those who came to America on the Mayflower are on the increase, says a report of the trien- nial congress of the Society of the Mayflower. The society figures there are 5,077 members of the organization today. But State Librarian H. R. Mell- ! waine says he can’t find a single descendant of the people who came to Virginia on the first three ships land- ing on the shore at Jamestown. In all his genealogical research, he says, he has ever heard of any one who claimed to be a descendant of the Jamestown colony's families. Disease killed off most of the first Virginia settlers, he said, and others went back to England, after finding no riches on these shores. It was the people who came over in succeed- ing voyages that populated Virginia, ‘e hojda, was formerly known as “Old Morgan Chapel,” will offer a prayer Plans practically are complete for the transfer of the one-acre site of the monument, bought under a $5,000 appropriation from the State Legis- lature 'to the States Road Commis- sion. The tract abuts the main high- way betwen Martinsburg and-"Win- chester, Va., and the monument com- mission feels that it would be better maintained by the road authorities which have the equipment. The site would be converted into a free tourist place, the first of its kind to be es- tablished in this State. The plans for the unveiling are in the hands of Haze Morgan of Clarks- burg, chairman; Mrs. A. A. Pickering of Rowlesburg, W. and_ State Senator Harry I’. Henshaw of Bunker Hill. A reunion of the Morgan family will be held in connection with the exercises. JANY FRESHVEN FOR U OF . TERW Grand Rush Begun by Appli- .cants for Admission at College Park. By a Staft Correspondent.

In many cases it takes a great deal of tim and work to straighten out little matters that have been occasioned by neglect in filling out the blanks. Exceed Previous Records.

Competitive examinations also will be held that day for the scholarships awarded each year 1o two members of the Maryland National Guard.
