District legislation and civic improve- ments were considered by the Takoma Park Citizens' Association at a meeting |held in the Takoma Park branch of | the Washington Public Library, Fifth and Cedar streets, last night. The association adopted a resolution | favoring the upholding of the present | bers feeling that the child welfare legis- lation passed in 1928 should not be im- paired. It was pointed out that bills | now in Congress would abolish restric- tions of the present statute by allowing children of any aze to appear in trav- eling theatrical productions up to 11 pm. and that the permit provision in the bills would be of little protection to the child. The District of Columbia and 17 States have laws, it was said, | imposing_penalties where violated. Burt W. Andrews, chairman of the Street, Lights and Walks Committee, reported on various improvements. The widening of Aspen street from Blair road to Laurel avenue, beneath the tracks of the Baltimore & Ohio Rail- road, will be urged before District au- thorities. The widening of the present undes at Aspen street, it was re- ported, would provide a gateway for that section of the park east of the | railroad tracks. Dr. W. A. Hooker, accompanied by members of the Boy Scout troops | {in Takoma Park and members of the associatin, will conduct | brief memorial services next Sun- day afternoon at the grave of Benjamin | F. Gilbert, founder of Takoma Park.‘ |in Cedar Hill Cemetery. A wreath will | be placed on his grave and “Taps” sounded by a bugler from one of the Scout, troops. T New Rail President Announced.

Compass, Carried 20 Years in Vain, Saves Three Lives By the Associated Press. OCONTO. Wis.,, March 9 —For 20 years William Burkhardt fu- tilely carried a compass in the expectation he might need it some time. Yesterday it saved his life and the lives of two companions, Ned and Willys Lesperance. The trio set out to lift their nets and were two miles from shore on Green Bay when a shift in the wind caused the ice to break up. Unable to get back to Oconto, they started a 10-mile trek to East Shore in a blinding storm and zero weather. Able to see only a few feet, Burkhardt pulled out the long- disused compass. By its guid- ance the three reached the shore and safety. PATROLMAN CRUEL, WIFE CHARGES IN SUIT Asks Limited Divorce From Abra- ham Buckingham—aAlso Alleges Threats. Charging cruelty and threats against her life, Mrs. Amelia Buckingham, 507 Longfellow street, yesterday filed suit in District Supreme Court for limited divorce from Abraham Buckingham, & | Metropolitan police officer. They were married at Barnesville, Md., November 1, 1913, and have no children. ‘Through Attorneys Raymond Neu- decker and Jean M. Boardman, the wife sets forth that for some time past Buckingham pursued a course of cruelty toward her to force her from his home, and she states she was compelled to | leave February 26. The wife charged that on Pebruary 9 Buckingham said: “From now on you are going to live a life of hell unless you get out of this house.” For five nights before she left Buckingham, the wife charges, he slept with a gun under his pillow. e Airmen Time Auto Race.
