- CTZENS CONDEHN SHALLLOMN BIL American University Park Association to Present Its Objections. American University Park Citizens’ Association adopted ~ resolutions last night condemning the pending Bowman small-loan bill, citing it as the “most iniquitous, infamous and hyprocritical” piece of legislation ever drawn for ap- plication to District affairs. The meeting, held in Hurst Hall of American University, directed the presi- dent of the association, Thomas E Lodge, to present the association's pro- test at a hearing on the bill next Mon- day. Plans for the third annual lawn, flower and garden_contest were an- nounced by D. S. Burch, chairman of the beautification and sanitation com- mittee, in charge of the contest, which will run until October. There wiil be no individual first, second or third prizes, groups of 10 in two different classifica- tions being chosen and certificates of master gardeners being given to each one in the group. The judges will be three prominent Jocal horticulturists, who will make known their choice of winners at the October meeting of the association. The committee in charge besides Mr. Burch includes Z. O. Law, Ora G. Visel, V. B Smith and E. Reese Thompson. There are about 250 homes in the community, nearly all of which, it was said, will be in competition. Action was taken supporting the movement fostered by the Petworth Cit- jzens’ Association to have members of [of the cast included Lucille Cohan, the Fire Department give instructions in the proper manner of turning in an alarm of fire. Informal discussion of the obscure method of numbering suburban houses was had and it was agreed by the members to make an ef- fort to place numbers in a position more easily read by postmen and deliverymen. The owners of the bus line operating in the community will be urged to place a bench and shelter for bus patrons at Forty-ninth street and Massachusetts avenue, The meeting was presided over by President Lodge. e o LS Crown Princess Expects Heir.

Under the direction of Robert A | Halsted, who assumed the leading role as well, this comedy not only was acted with skill, but staged with great taste, the draperies and costumes being espe- cially pleasing. The story, & prophetic account of a | young man’s troubles to find just the right wife for himself, assumed amus- ing proportions, particularly through | the efforts of Ann Crockett as the for- tune-telling Mammy. Others who dis- | tinguished themselves were Manoma Hudson, who substituted for the bride at the lats moment; Anne de Pricst, a | most appealing figure in her bridal Tobes, and Edna Lee Britt, who tried hard to “get her man’ The remainder Winnie Wengerd, Ruth Rush, Charlotte Steedman, Benjamin Williford, Michael J.
