INCINERATOR SITE | WILL BE SELECTED Park and Planning Commis- sion to Meet on Several Matters Next Friday. ‘The location of two incinerators, au- j thorized for the District, will be taken up by the National Capital Park and Planning Commission at its meeting to be held on Friday of next week. the District, will appear before the com- mission and give further details of the plans and arrangements for the new municipal center, to be constructed near the Capitol. ‘The commission expects to get a re- port from the Advisory Board of Arch! | tects with relation to the transporta- jtlon questions in the triangle, which will house some 20,000 additional em- ployes when the public buildings pro- gram has been completed. The possible development of Conduit road as a commercial street will be con- sidered by the commission. It is pro- posed to have this highway set apart | for commercial traffic, as the proposed park boulevard will likely be nearer the river. Provision for the boulevard is made in the Cramton park purchase bill, now pending in the Senate, after its recent passage by the House. The program calls for a park driveway on both sides of the Potomac River be- tween Great Falls and Mount Vernon on the Virginia side and from Great Falls to Fort Washington on the Mary- land side. The commission will take up the question of major street widths, Lieut. Col. U. S. Grant, 3d, the commission’s executive officer, announced. An effort will be made to standardize street widths and ascertain, if possible, if definite widths for pavements can be set. Col. Grant made it clear that there is no thought of wholesale tear- Ing up of streets under this program. The best width, Col. Grant said, will be considered with relation to traffic lanes for automobiles. TODAY'S AMUSEMENTS.

MOUNT VERNON, Wash,, February 11.—An argument over the twist in a bulldog's tail here Sunday resulted in the fatal shooting of Miss Dorothy McMurtrie, 24, Bellingham telephone operator, and the critical wounding of her brother Harold. J. P. Pickett, Anacortes, Wash., barber, whom witnesses said did the shooting, was arrested after he had taken the girl to a hospital in his car. The argument took place during an alleged beer-drinking party at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Roy Norton, who was knitting a blanket for a buildog. An argument over a slight twist in the tail of the dog followed. Miss McMur- trie_and Pickett’s wife took opposite sides. McMurtrie and Pickett quar- reled. Witnesses said Pickett fired on the McMurtries. WOMAN 1S INJURED INLEAP TOLIFE NET Two Men, Who Jumped From Eighth Floor Also, Escape With Bruises. | By the Associated Press. CHICAGO, February 11.—Leaps for life from eighth-story windows into nets and precarious descents on scaling lad- ders were thrillers that thousands saw |last night when fire swept two floors |of the Gunther Building, just south of the “Loop.” Miss Margaret Paine, one of the three who sought escape from the flames by leaping into a net, was in- | jured so seriously she may die. She struck the net feet first and her body rebounded several feet into the air. A fiying heel cut a deep gash in the cheek of one of the men holding the net. On the rebound she struck an- other net holder, Ralph De Butch, a cab dri-er, and his shoulder was broken. Second of Three Who Jumped. The young womah's leg was broken and her skull fractured. Miss Paine was the second of three persons to leap from the eighth floor. The first jumper was Joseph Sandman. of the five nets spread below and suf- fered only a slight wrench to his left shoulder. Cecil McDonough, 32, who weighs 195 pounds, jumped last and came from the the net, as he put it, “without a bruise or scratch.” Three Hundred Escape on Elevators. The blowing of a fuse on an electric pilloy-stuffing machine in the factory of the Thompson-Thorne Co. on the seventh floor started the fire, a spark igniting a bin of cotton and silk shreds. Three hundred girls employed by the ‘Thompson-Thorne Co. escaped by means of elevators, which were kept running even until flames were leaping across the shafts. . Light Eater Hopes to fie 100.
