Proposed _Revision. Vigorous protest will be voiced against the proposed rezoning of Connecticut avenue between Connecticut Avenue Bridge and_Woodley road from resi- dential to first commercial by mem- bers of the Connecticut Avenue Citi- zens’ Assoclation, according to resolu- tions unanimously adopted at a meeting last night in All Souls’ Parish Hall. The resolution, presented by Sidney Roche, opposes any change of the pres- ent zoning, stating there is no need for additional business structures on these blocks, and with their establish- ment the entrance to Washington over the Million-dollar Bridge would be ad- versely affected. It was said at the meeting that 100 per cent of the property owners of { the blocks affected had petitioned for | the_commercial zoning, claiming that traffic is so great on this avenue as to make home life there undesirable, but members of the association declared they would not sanction the change without a hard fight. Miss Paulina Block, Mr. Reed and Guy H. Johnson were appointed as a special commit- tee to Tepresent the association at a hearing beforc the Zoning Commission next week. Informal discussion of the pending Blaine bill in Congress to revise regu- lations covering mortgage foreclosures in the District developed opposition to the bill as creating hardships on those contemplating property purchase. No formal action was taken. Appreciation was expressed by _the association over a communication from the Public Utilities Commission which stated that a loading platform would within a few days be built at Connec- ticut avenue and Woodley road for northbound street car traffic. The as- soclation will endeavor later to have a platform erected at the same corner for southbound traffic. A report of the committee on by-laws | - revision was presented and adopted, in- cluding the changing of the associa- tion’s boundary lines, some of which, it was said, had been absorbed by other associations newly established. The new boundaries now are from Ord- way street on the north to Calvert street on the south and from Thirty-fourth A public demonstration of work by students in community classes of piano and orchestral instrument study will be given Saturday night at 7:30 o'clock at McKinley High School. ‘The local schools offer instruction on | piano, violin, cello, cornet, French horn, trombone, ~ clarinet, saxophone, xylo- phone and drums. ‘The program Satur- day will include numbers for all these instruments. - The enrollment of piano pupils this year has exceeded that of former. sea- sons. Each member of the piano class faculty will present a group of students. Dr. Edwin N. C. Barnes is director of the music in the public schools and has the co-operation of the community center department for these classes. Mrs. Laura F. Ward is supervisor of classes in _orchestral instrumentation Mrs. Mary Garrett Lewls is su- rvisor of piano classes. FORD EXECUTIVE TO SPEAK Head of Aircraft Division to Ad- dress Aero Club.

Stout, president of the aircraft division of the Ford Motor Co., and designer of the all-metal Ford tri-motored transport plane, will be the guest speaker at a luncheon meeting of the Aero Club of Washington at 12:30 p.m. tomorrow in the New Willard Hotel.
