GEORGETOWN TOUR 10 REVEAL BEAUTY Hidden Gardens Will Open April 22 and 23 for An- nual Visit. For two days this month the gates of old gardens, carefully screened from public gaze in secluded sections of Georgetown, where the atmosphere of bygone days still lingers, will open to visitors during the annual Garden Pil- image. ST With few exceptions the gardens of Georgetown are hidden from the pass- erby, says the committee in charge &f this pilgrimage on April 22 and 23, which holds a charm for visitors, as well as Washingtonians, The gardens of old Georgetown have kept the eveh tenor of their way, unmindful of pro- gresive changes about them. Today, the committee Teminds, there is a greater number of formal gardeas hidden from the streets in this oldest | section of Washington than even the| average resident of Georgetown sus- | pects. By “formal” the committee | means an evidence that due regard has been paid to line and proportion. Many Surprises Due. During the forthcoming pilgrimage, the visitors will be able to see large gardens with terraces and vistas—me- dium-sized gardens of beauty where families entertain their friends in ths French manner and also the “kitchen™ type of garden, which even these days have their surprises, tiny as they are. | These gardens are reached in ways unknown to the general public. Some | are accessible by alley approaches so | narrow that two people pass with dif- ficulty. Others lie behind high stone or brick walls, which appear to hide only typical back yards if one takss into account the general character cf the neighborhood. The fact remains that this older part of the National Capital has always had its charm for outsiders, a charm made up of a curious mixture of friendliness and informality, remindful of the days when streets were free of automobiles and only an ocasional horse-drawn ve- hicle disturbed neighbors who stopped in them for gossip. Rich In Traditions. To many of the visitors these little- known gardens, with their air of in- formality and tradition, have a greater lure than the formal gardens of fa- mous estates, well known to the public. . During the two days of the pilgrimage these garden gates will be open to all who wish to enter them upon payment of a nominal fee. Proceeds from the pilgrimage will go towards the sup- port of a nursery school for underpriv- | ileged children maintained by the Children's Committee of Georgetown, | under whose auspices the annual pil- grimages are conducted. Tickets will admit the purchaser to & group of gardens on each of these afternoons from 2 until 7 o'clock, or they may be obtained at the garden gates. A list will be published later.

HITLER HEADS-TO-ROLL THREAT HEARD IN COURT Representative in Libel Suit In- timates What Will Happen in Nazi Appointments. By the Assoclated Press. MUNICH, Bavaria, April 2.—Adolf Hitler's famous threat that “heads will roll” was repeated by Hans Frank, member of the Reichstag and chief of the National Soclalist Juridical Depart- ment, while representing Hitler yester- day in a libel suit against the Muench- ner Post, Social Democratic newspaper. Frank told the court that even Gen. Wilhelm Groener, minister of defense, believed implicity in the legality of Hitler's Nazi (Fascist) movement. “Nevertheless, when Hitler appoints the Supreme Court, heads will roll” said Frank, who added in a nonchalant manner that he himself could not help it Hitler is a candidate for President of Germany in the election to be held on April 10. 12 to 14 Individual Pieces Delivered HOT s 00 Any Hour Till Midnight Call NAtional 8123 WE ARE ONLY HUMAN! —we ask therightto live! —and to love! —and to make merry! &) i p 7, & ) " —life is short! \\‘ («fl':f RS A Promise from METRO- GOLDWYN.

Coupe A Slashing Price Reduction in Pontiac Six Prices Brings the Important New Features of 1932, Pontiac’s Big-Car Rid- ing Comfort, to a New and Low Price Level Thus, as the National Exhibit of General Motors Products opens, effec- tive April 2, Pontiac Six, chief of 1932 values, further established its value- leadership. These reductions—up to $50 per car—represent exceedingly important savings to motorists who desire the refinements and riding comfort usu- ally found in larger cars, but who wish to purchase these qualities at a low price. These prices are the very low- est ever quoted for Pontiac cars and are for the finest and largest six-cylin- der cars Pontiac has ever built. The resulting values are, we believe, the very greatest ever offered the Ameri- can public during the whole of the motor car’s history. They mean, a new basis of motor car values, a new incen- tive to the American people to buy motor cars now.
