THE EVENING STAR., WASHINGTON, O BODYCALS FORAVENE MORK Montgomery Federation Urges Paving Be for Full Width of Wisconsin. BY JACK ALLEN, Staft Correspondent of The Star. BETHESDA, Md, May 14.—Brand- ing the ditch in the center of Wis- eonsin avenue as a menace to life and property, as well as an eyesore, the | Montgomery County Civic Federation passed a resolution last night asking | that the entire thoruoghfare be paved | to conform with original plans of the | State Roads Commission. The measure implores the highway body to grade and pave the right of way now used by the Capital Transit Co. and remove the trolley poles when the traction firm carries out its an- nounced intentions to abandon the | Rockville-Washington electric car line and substitute bus service. Hails Abandonment. Tt further appeals to the commis- | sion to institute legal proceedings and endeavor to force the railroad to pave the dangerous and unsightly ditch formed by the right of way if for any reason the company fails to abandon | the trolley line. In another emergency resolution passed on the recommendation of the Public Utilities Committee, the federa- | tion hailed with “satisfaction and ap- preciation” the company’s abandon- ment announcement, published excl sively in The Star last Saturday. ‘The second resolution asks that offi- cials of the Capital Transit Co. draft their new bus schedule in such a manner that the inauguration of local bus service for the communities south of Rockville will not unfavorably af- fect the continued operation of express busses between Rockville and Wash- | ington. Asks Co-operation. It further requests permission from the officials to have the Public Util- ities Committee of the federation co- operate with the traction firm with a view to the adoption of schedules and routes that will adequately serve the needs of all the communities lying in the affected area. Coples of both resolutions will be sent immediately to the Capital Tran- sit Co. and the State Roads Commis- sion, which is carrying on paving work along Wisconsin avenue that is leav- ing the railroad's right of way in a ditch between the District line and old Georgetown road. It is now proposed to have the State Roads Commission pave the entire surface of the avenue to a width of 75 feet after the road is abandoned. Original plans of the | commission called for the work to be done in this manner, but they were abandoned when the traction firm expressed its inability to pave be- tween its tracks.

Demas explained he has had two years of work at the New York Uni- versity School of Aeronautics, estab- ished by the Guggenheim fund, and one year at Massachusetts Institute of Technology. “I need only one year more to complete the course I had originally planned,” Demas said. “In view of changes in the aeronautical industry during the years I have been away, however,” he explained, “I have de- cided to change my course and to take two years more of university training. I have not decided whether I will go back to New York Univer- sity or to M. I. T. I want to spec- jalize in the airline management type of training.” Demas after visiting in Washington with relatives, from whom he has been separated nearly 8 years out of the last 10, ‘while with Byrd, re- joined the expedition at Quantico, Va., to go on with the group to Boston and New York. He will re- main with the expedition until it is finally disbanded some time during the Summer and then will return to D. C. TUESDAY, Washington to be with his people here until time to go back to school. Demas was born in Corinth, Greece, May 31, 1905, coming to Washington in early childhood with his father, Dr. N, Demas, 1906 Irving street north- east. He was reared as a Protestant, recelving grammar school and high school education here. He worked in Canada for a time in exploration work for minerals before joining Byrd for the first time in 1926. Haines, a native of Reinersville, Ohlo, where he was born February 1, 1887, served in the Army Signal Corps during the World War, attaining the rank of sergeant, first class, He at- tended schools in Ohio, coming here to George Washington University to complete his education. Haines, & veteran meteorologist with the Weather Bureau, accom- panied Byrd into the Arctic in 1926 on his North Pole expedition and has been with him during both ex- peditions to Little America. Haines also has served in Weather Bureau stations in Texas, Florida, Haiti and ‘Washington. He has been in Wash- ington since 1922, except for time spent with the Byrd expeditions. He established the Washington Airport airways weather station and was its first chief. Student at G. W. U, Grimminger, now 29 years old, was born and reared in St. Louis and was in_the employ of the Weather Bureau nine years before leaving with Byrd in 1933. He came to Washington six A PREMIUM THE NEW MAY 14, 1935. years ago from Kansas City, and while on duty here was a student at George ‘Washington University, which award- ed him his A. B. degree. He was working for a master's degree when he left. The first questions asked by both Haines and Grimminger when they landed here had to do with personnel changes in the Weather Bureau dur- ing their two-years’ absence. Both men expected last night to return soon to their regular Weather Bureau duties. They have brought back tens of thousands of detailed weather ob- servations from Little America and the various outpost camps, including the observations made by Byrd at his advanced base. It is believed the cor- relation and analysis of these records will require nearly six months and will provide the finest picture of Ant- arctic weather conditions yet obtained. This information is expected to shed important light on vagaries of weather throughout the southern hemisphere. e Hand Periscopes Popular.
