¢ l N A—4 ; PLAN INAUGURAL TROLLEY SERVICE Capital Traction and W. R. _ E. Co. to Expand Operations ¥ to Limit Saturday. " To take care of the extra heavy gtreet car and bus traffic expected on Inaugural day, both street car com- panies have de preparations to ex- pand their service to the limit Satur- day The Capital Traction Co. plans must get around the difficulty of having all street car traffic barred off Pennsyl- vania avenue during the parade and while the President is going from the White House to the Capitol, but im- mediately after the parade every avail- able bus and strest car will be swung into service to help in taking the crowds of spectators home. The Washington Railway & Electric Co. will also be handicapped by not being able to cross the Avenue with its cars at Fourteenth and Ninth streets, but this company, too, will make special efforts to hold the incon- venience to a minimum, and to get its service flowing in the regular chan- Tels as soon as the parade has passed. ‘The detailed plans of the two com- panies are given below. Capital Traction Co. Double the amount of ordinary serv- ice will be given, beginning about 9 am. and lasting until parade time on the company's Chevy Chase, Four- teenth street, including Takoma, Flor- ida avenue, Seventh street, Seven- teenth and Pennsylvania avenue south- east and Eighth and F streets north- east lines. Omethe New Jersey avenue (Rock Creek to Navy Yard), line the service in the morning will be trebled. There will be a one-and-one-half minute service from the Union Station over Pennsylvania avenue to take care of visitors coming in by railroad the morning of March 4. After the parade is over every avail- able car and bus will be put into service on the Capital Traction lines to help carry homeward the crowds from the Avenue. Under present plans cars will be moved westward over Penn- sylvania avenue on both tracks right back of the parade. Twenty-five street cars will be parked on the eastbound track east of the Capitol and will be moved west until the first one reaches Fifteentn and F streets, when they will stop and be operated in their normal directions, to Union Station, Eighth and F streets northeast, and Seven- teenth and Pennsylvanai avenue south- east. South of Pennsylvania avenue on Seventh street there will be 17 street cars parked. When the parade has passed, they will be dispatched north and west; out of the total six being routed over Pennsylvania avenue to Fifteenth street and then to Chevy Chase via. Fourteenth street, U street and Connecticut avenue. Special Bus Line. While the Avenue is closed, & special bus line with 12 busses operating 5 minutes apart will furnish service be- tween Rossyln and the Union Station by way of M street, Pennsylvania avenue, K street (at Washington Circle), Thir- teenth street and E street. Return will beover the same route, except that busses will turn north on Twelfth street. Free transfers will be issued to car lines at intersecting points, Fourteenth street, Seventh street and at the station to cars operating over New Jersey ave- nue and to points east of that station, the Navy Yard, Eighth and F streets northeast or Seventeenth and Pennsyl- vania avenue southeast. Cars operated over Fourteenth street or from Chevy Chase will be turned back at Fifteenth street and New York avenue. There will be a shuttle service south of Pennsylvania avenue on Seventh street and cars running on that street north of the Avenue will turn around the G. A. R. Monument. The New Jersey avenue and Florida avenue lines will be operated as usual. The west end bus line will be operated between Seven- teenth and G and Twenty-sixth and F streets. On the Chevy Chase coach line from the circle there will be a 10-minute service from 8 am. to 11:40 aum. After the parade every available bus will be used on this line. Additional car and bus service will be given on the Fourteenth street and Rosslyn-Pennsylvania avenue lines on Saturday night for the accommodation of those who wish to witness the fire- works display. ‘Washington Railway & Electric Co. ‘When car service will not be permitted to cross Pennsylvania avenue, the south- bound service along Ninth and Eleventh streets will operate via. G, Eleventh, E and Ninth streets, while cars south- bound along Eleventh street will ter- minate at Ninth and E streets. Cars from wharves via Four and a Half street as well as cars from Congress Heights and Anacostia will terminate at Seventh and B streets. On the North Capitol line the south- bound service terminates at the Treas- ury and the northbound service from wharves via Eleventh street and Vir- ginia avenue southeast and from the Bureau of Engraving will terminate at Fourteenth and E streets. Special service will also be provided to the Monument via Fourteenth street for the display of fireworks. A special 10- minute service will be operated between Union Station and the Bureau of En- graving and in addition to the regular service along lower Fourteenth street by the North Capitol street line, cars of the Maryland line will also be divert- ed at Fourteenth and G to Fourteenth and B streets southwest. Other special services to be offered by this company will result in the fol- lowing schedules on the various di- wvisions: North Capitol street, wharves line, from 9 to 11 a.m, 4 minutes headway from Catholic University to Fourteenth and B streets. 8 minutes headway to and from Brookland, Bureau and wharves.

There still remained considerable un- certainty about the sort of weather that will attend the inaugural. The long-distance weekly forecast of the Weather Bureau, issued last Saturday, predicted rain and cold weather for Friday and Saturday. Charles L. Mitchell, chief forecaster of the Weather Bureau, today stuck to his plan of not giving a definite forecast of inaugural weather until tomorrow. ‘The Inaugural Committee, however, prepared for inclement weather by hav- ing most of the inaugural grandstands covered this year, while there has been prepared for the presidential reviewing stand a glass-inclosed section which | can be fitted to the front of the repro- duction of old Federal Hall of New York, from which the new President can ;l:".ch the parade in warmth and com- ort.

In response to criticlsm directed againsi the choice of plays selected by the judges in the Community Center's preliminary One-Act Play Tournament, the Committee in Charge, at a meeting yesterday, formally approved the plays chosen, “The system of scoring the plays was adopted on the principal of averages,” the commitee stated, “and the judges were instructed to score each play on certain points—choice of play, acting, voice, directing and stage craft. The committee has no control over the marks given to the individual plays. “It was necessary for the final com- putation to be made on the basis of the |10 scores recorded. The selection of four plays for the finals was not affected by this method, for which there was no practicable alternative. “The committee, hax submitted the decision to the five carefully selected judges, who gave their services faith- Tully at great sacrifice of time, must in any case accept their verdict.” ‘The finals of the play tournament will be held tonight at the McKinley High School Auditortum. At the com- | W' pletion of the performances the judges will announce the winning and second place. The judges are Andrew R. Kelley of the Washington Times, chair- man; Nelson B. Bell, Washington Post. Mabelle R. Jennings, Washington Herald; Edward de S. Melcher, The Washington Evening Star, and Eleanor ‘Wilson, Dally News. Individual actors excelling in acting, voice and diction also will be selected from the entire contest and announced by the preliminary judges. The four plays to be presented to- night will be “The Love Pirate,” by the St. James’ Players; “The Girl,” by the Southeast Community Players; ““The ‘Walf at the Door,” by the Troupers of East Washington Community Center, and “Betrayal,” by the Religious Drama Committee of the Washington Federa- tion of Churches.
