Word was sent to all supervising principals of the- pbblic schools to dav by Robert L. Haycock, assistant superintendent In charge of grade schools, to instruct teachers to lighten the school work as much as possible because of the extreme heat. The following instruction was sent by Mr. Haycock: "It is deemed advisable to in struck principals and teachers to adapt the school work, in so far as it is possible, to the condition of extreme heat which prevails at this time. Arrangements should be made to give pupils frequent changes of work and every use should be made of the cooler places In and around the school buildings. The work in the afternoon should be less arduous than that In the morning on very hot days.” There was no wholesale dismissals of pupils at any schools up .to noon. At several elementary school buildings, pupils In classrooms more exposed to heat than others were, taken out on the lawn for class' work. Classes on the third floor of the Wallach School were removed to the grounds or to other rooms as they became available. Moye to Main Building Permlseflon was given to the Park View School to take classes into the Soldiers Home grounds, but It was not found necessary to .carry out this plan this morning as pupils in the portable buildings ’were accomodated in th? auditorium of the main building.

Willie MacFarlane, the Scotch-bred professional, and Bobby Jones, the brilliant young Atlanta amateur, ran a dead heat for eighteen holes today In their playoff match for the open golf championship of the United States. The playoff today was made necessary by their tie of yesterday at 72 holes. Jones went into the seventh hole one down to his older opponent, but got the stroke back on the seventeenth with a par four against MacFarlane’s five, and the eighteen was halved, leaving them even again. Both played the eighteen holes in seventy-five strokes. They will play off the eighteenth holes this afternoon. MacFarlane’s failure to sink a three-foot putt on the eighteenth hole beat him out of victory. This would have given him a birdie three for the hole. Both made the first hole. 875 yards, in four, which Is par. Both Jones and MacFarlane drove fine balls. MacFarlane pushed his second into a trap at the right of the green, but recovered well and holed a good putt for his birdie but missed. Jones, 4; MacFarlane, 4. Second hole. 570 yards, par 5. Both drove well and MacFarlane put his second into a trap, 40 yards rhort of the green. His out was over and nearly in a stone wall. He played a good shot from high grass to get his fourth on and took two puts for a six. Jones played a good par five, his second being just short of the green and he got down in three more for a par five. Jones, 5; MacFarlane. 6. McFarlane Takes Third. Third h01e—375 pards; par 4.

With The Alibi Artists Center Lighting System Is Urged as Way Out of Traffic Problem Light Where Needed By DONALD MeDOUGAL. Maybe that idea of putting traf fic lights on Sixteenth street won’t turn out a total loss after all. It’s got people to thinking about street lighting, and now we’re all ready for the next step, which is to do something. Washington is up against it good in the matter of lighting, because of wide streets. You may have heard that statement before, and if you stick around awhile you’ll probably hear it again. We’ve either got to have bright er lights than most cities have, or we’ve got to have dimmer streets. On the average, our lifchts have got to be about twice as bright as other cities need. Up at the Bureau of Standards they say that light doesn’t play fair with the taxpayers. It gives out too quick. It hasn't got any stamina. A light that will produce a cer tain brightness at five feet will only produce a trifle over 10 per cent as much at fifteen feet. To Increase the range of your light by 50 per tent you-ve got to double the brightness. When street lighting was first started seventy-five or a hundred years ago, the idea was more to'- light the footways—they didn’t have much In the \way of side —than to light the streets. They figured that a horse had sense enough to get along with out breaking his neck, even if the road was dark. So the lamp postal were put on the side of the road where the people /-were and the hordes In the middle of the street got along the best way they could. Horses have given way to auto mobile drivers now, and we’ve simply got to have more light in the roadway. We put our lights in the same place where they were in the whale-oil burning. days, although we need most of our light in the roadway and comparatively little for the sidewalk. Pedestrians are not as likely to collide with each other as ma chines are, and they don’t damage each other as much. Why should the sidewalk be lighted brighter than the street? With lights placed where they are now, a thirteen-foot sidewalk is lighted about ten times as strong as a thirteen-foot stip in the middle of a forty-foot road way. And when a driver looks toward -the sidewalk to see if a pedes trian is coming, what little light there is gets him in the eye. Lights suspended by cable over the center of the street would throw the most light where the most light is needed; the drlverfs eyes would not be blinded when he looked toward the sidewalk, and 30 or 40 per cent of the light would not be cut off by trees as it is now, and about half the brilliancy now required would be enough. The middle of the street needs more illumination than the side walk does. Then it looks as though the sensible thing' is to put it there. Center lighting wolld make night-driving easier; would reduce the number of collisions; and would save the tax payers quite a piece of change. If you have any qualms about the esthetic qualities of the arrangement, run over to Alex andria some evening and see it in operation on Washington street. It looks like Pennsylvania avenue when the Shriners were here, only more subdued like. Society Notes (Continued from Page 4.) City, has been, joined by Miss Sarah Gammill. 4 Mrs. James F.

Walcott is considering the terms submitted by Orville Wright for formally turn. Ing over the historic relic to the National Museum for\ permar.lnt display with indications it may be several days before a decision will be reached. The recent controversy in Amer ica over the announced intention of Wright to donate the plane to a British museum where “it would re ceive the credit*due” has been par tially solved by Wright’s agreement to reconsider and give it to the National Museum, if it is properly lebelled.

Wright claims that the Langley plane that actual ly flew was entirely rebuilt and in cluded little if any of the original material.
