A-12 THANGE OPPOSED IN D, HEAD LAW Georgetown Citizens’ Meet- ing Votes to Make Protest to President. Opposition to any law changing the qualifications of candidates for commis- sioner of the District of Columbia was voiced in the form of a resolution by the Georgetown Citizens’ Association, meeting last night in St. John's Parish Hall, Potomac avenue and O street. Copies of the resolution were ordered sent to the President and chairmen of the Senate and House District com- mittees, Another resolution urged a congres- rional appropriation for the transfor- mation of Thirty-fifth street between M street and Prospect avenue into a terraced parkway, with a view to cre ing a more pleasing presentation. ‘Thirty-fifth street is a deeply graded one and very little used by traffic. The resolution contemplated the develop- ment of a narrow roadway on one side for the convenience of proj ‘owners should the necessity for such an artery arise. Tentative plans for the placing of the two brass cannon dug up some months ago in Georgetown, and be- lieved to have belonged to Braddock's army, at some conspicuous point in the community were discussed, and action on the matter was referred to com- mittee for further investigation. It was suggested that the cannon be suit- 13 Days as Dean, Then Dr. Velarde Ends His Service By the Associated Press.

The club was under the direction of the guest con- ductor, Mrs. Apolline Blair of Boston. Guest soloists of the evening were Alma Kitchell, contralto, of New York, and Richard Lorleberg, cellist, of this city. Rendering its selections under the leadership and dynamic personality of Mrs. Blair, the club seemed imbibed with the spirit of the music and was remarkable in its co-ordination both in technical interpretation and expression of feeling. The program was opened with three selections, “Salutation” Gaines), * " (Rasbach-Harris) and “The Night” (Schubert). the last was outstanding, both from the standpoint of beauty and presenta- | & tion. ‘This number had cello accom- paniment. Mrs. Kitchell, making her initial ap- pearance in Washington, was an in- stantaneous success with the audience. She is a popular radio star over the N. B. C. network, and one whose voice is famillar to many Washingtonians. In the aria, “O Mio Fernando,” from “La Favorita,” the singer showed art- @ istry with a well trained voice. Clarity of colorful tone, feeling in_interpreta- tion and cultured preparation charac- terized all of Mrs. Kitchell's numbers. |, Perhaps the best number offered by | @ ‘the club was that which followed, | & Bueno's “Nightfall in Granada.” SYNO A Handkerchief Inhalant for HEAD COLDS A few drops on your handkerchief, inhale frequently and your cold Will pass away.
