WILL BE ENLARGED Addition of Four. Stories to Georgetown College Struc- ture Will Be Built. Work will start soon at Georgetown College on a small four-story addition to the old brick faculty building and infirmary, itself a fine example of early American architecture.- The infirmary, which comprises the original part of the building, was built about 100 years ago and in 1821 the Mulledy Building was added to it. Since that time the various presidents of Georgetown and priests attached to its teaching staff have been making their quarters in the structure. Among the additions and improve- | ser ments to°the university buildings in progress since Rev. Dr. W. Coleman Nevils, 8. came into office as presi- dent last Summer, none is needed more urgently than the changes that have been planned for the faculty building. With the small addition the infirmary quarters will be enlarged and made more comfortable and an elevator installed. Among other features, a roof garden will be provided. which will command a fine view of the Maryland and Vir- ginia hills, | Several years ago the original North Hall, where George Washington, Lafay- ette and other great personages visited, was remodeled to conform to the new gormitory adjoining it. Only its ex- terior, which boasts one of the finest types of Colonial doorways in Wash- ington, remains unchanged. Except for electric lighting and run- ning water, the latter having been in- stalled last Fall, the faculty building and infirmary is still in its original state. Hold Prom Friday.

Dr. Coutinho's lectures, scheduled from July 11 to August 21, will be on the subjects of “Foreign Relations of Latin America” and “Portuguese Litera- ture,” and will be conducted in English.

Six family ensemble groups par- ticipated in the second annual contest and golden hour concert given for “home groups” connected with the D. C. Federation of Music Clubs at the Interior Department Building Audi- torium last night. The winning group was the Potter family, composed of Ruby Potter, soprano; Louis Potter, pianist, and Louis Potter, jr., violon- cellist. The decision of the judges was unanimous to award the large silver cup donated by Isaac Gans, The judges were Mrs. Eugene Byrnes, president of the Priday Morning Music | Club; Miss Amy Leavitt, well known in local music projects, and Dr. Edwin N. C. Barnes, head of the music depart- ment in the public schools of the Dis- trict. Mrs. Joseph M. Stoddard, presi- dent of the District of Columbia Feder- ation of Music Clubs, announced the winner. Mr.' Gans presented the cup to Louis Potter, jr. Although this was the second year of the contest, this was the initial award of the cup. Last year the cup was for- mally presented to the home groups chairman, Mrs. Frank Westbrook, for this purpose. It was won for the first time, therefore, this year by the Potter and, according to the ruling con- its award, is to remain in their for one year, next year being awarded to the best group participating. In making the presentation, Mr. Gans e:Ereued his belief in the need of Wi gton for a symphony orches- tra and his opinion that within the year a Washington symphony orches~ tra is to be established. Mrs. Stoddard spoke of the 50 federated clubs in the Distgict of Columbia and told of the possiBility of this city’s acquiring the $100 prize offered for the city having the greatest number of federated members in pro- portion to the number of resident musicians and the size of the place, which will be awarded at the biennial meeting in June in Boston.

Dr. Charles F. Carusi, president of the Board of Education, will preside. The session will be attended by Dr. Frank W. Ballou, superintendent of schools, and other members of the school board and officials’ staff. Two such meetings are held each year by the school authorities. The Spi conference—that which is to be held Wednesday—is one in which the citi- 2ens present their wants in educational factlities, outlining the school needs of the various communities as they view them. At the Fall meeting the school officials report ‘back to the citizens on the status of their requests. ‘Wednesday's session probably will differ from the preceding meeting of the same character, in that discussion of the division of the District'’s reve- nue among the various departments, which Dr. Carusi instituted last Fall, probably will be continued. At the last | meef Dr. Carusi reviewed the condi- | Floris tion of Washington’s school facilities and the status of new buildings, He submitted two queries to the citizens, inviting them to reply whether they would approve the allocation of one- third of the total District revenue to public schools, and whether they would approve of school appropriation esti- mates being submitted directly to the Budget Bureau, without pruning by the District Commissiofiers, but with such recommendations as to priority of items which the Commissioners might wish to make. g Many of the citizens’ associations and similar groups have not yet replied to | the queries and they have been invited & present their answers at the meet- GIRLS WILL COMPETE IN SINGING CONTEST 800 Competitors Expected to Take Part in Second Annual Event Thutsday. - Twenty-three Girl Reserve the nine junior hl:;:m‘ IN LEAP AT HOSPITAL :"’“ Police Say Earl Rodgers Attempt- ed Third Time in Six Months to End Life.
