Committee Will Report On Use of Market Lot A committee appointed by, the Commissioners to study the ad- visability of allowing third precinct police to park impounded automo- biles on a lot between the station house and the market at Twenty- first and K streets N.W. is expected to report this week. Farmers and merchants who use the market have protested that the lot, which is part of the market property, must be kept open for their use or their business will be affected. Police say that they need a space | to park automobiles and contend | that there is room on the lot for | these cars without interfering with the market’s business. The Commissioners have rejectetfl the police request on previous occa- sions, but in answer to a new plea from the police they appointed early this month a committee of three to study the question. The committee consists of Walter L. Fowler, assistant corporation counsel; A. R. Pilkerton, assistant District auditor, and E. P. Brooke, superintendent of District buildings.

Approximately 4 Miles. The Potomac Appalachian Trail Club, in its program of encouraging use of its trails in the Blue Ridge Mountains, invites attention of local hikers to Marys Rock, a peak in the Shenandoah National Park that has been a favorite of mountain en- thusiasts for over 200 years. From its spectacular and interesting rocky summit are views unsurpassed in the Virginia Blue Ridge. When one approaches the Blue Ridge from Washington on the Lee highway, Marys Rock creates a defi- nite impression at a great distance. On the horizon is the sinuous curved crest of the mountain range, indis- tinct and marked by the hazy at- mosphere which has given rise to its name. Ahead on the highway is a | prominent gap, which, in the early days, was known as the “Great Pass.” Today this pass across the mountain is known as Thornton Gap or Pan- orama. The elevation at this point is 1,200 feet. In 1733 Francis Thornton built & THE SUNDAY STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C, JUNE 2, 1940— PART ONE.

The trail is marked by dia- mond shaped Appalachian Trail markers at frequent intervals. It climbs steadily but gradually and is well graded. The laurel and fragrant pink azalea when in bloom along this trail is an added attraction. Just befofe reaching the top of the mountain below the rock-crest, turn right.
