HALLS SEEMED LOVING
PAIR AT MAINE RESORT
Rector Probably Got Mail Un-
der Another Name.

Special Dispatch to THE NEW YORK HERALD
BAR HARBoR, Me-. Oct. 20.--The Rev.
Edward w. Hall and Mrs. Hall were at
the little woodlawn Inn at Ielesford
from August 1 20 23 this year, the sixth
consecutive season that they had passed
at the-little island resort a mile off the
shore of Mount Desert Island. The Halls
lived quietly and like the other visitors
spent much of their time on all dag out
ings. All reports OF their life there
agree that they appeared to hs more
than ordinarily congenial couple. passing
large part of their time together.
James II. Dwelley, village postmaster
at Islesford and also proprietor of the
modest woodlawn Inn in which the
Halls had passed their summers. was
asked whether the murdered rector had
displayed any particular interest in the
arrival of the daily mail boat He re-
piled that he was not even as much
Interested as the average guest.
Mrs Arthur CIemen' postmistress at
Seal Harbor. did not know the Halls
and had no recollection of their having
received mail at her office. Her assist
ant. Mrs Roger Haynes, had been in
charge of ne general delivery mail all
season and was equally certain that she
had not delivered any mail 60 a Rev.
Mr.. Hall. The Seal Harbor office is
small and IL Is improbable that any
clergyman would call for mail more
than once without being noticed. The
inference Is that II Hall received mail
at the Seal Harbor office he received It
in a name other than his own.

WEDGEWOOD PREDICTS
LABOR PARTY'TRIUMPH
Finds American Class Lines
Flinlsy.

An opportunity for the British Labor
marty to emerge from the coming general
election second only TO the Conservatives

these two parties in a Labor Govern
ment was the Interpretation placed on
the resignation of Lloyd George by Col
Josiah c. wedgewood. NJ. p, and vice.
president Of the British Labor party.
who arrived in New York yesterday.
Col. 'Wedgewood said the most impor-
tant immediate question was whether
Bonar Law would dissolve Parliament to
test the, strength of his party with the
electorate or whether he would rely on
the present Parliament. He went on:
"If Bonar Law should dissolve Par
lament and new elections should take
place | expect the new Parliament to be
made up as follows: SO Liberals, 20
Coalition members and 160 Laborites.
This will give the Conservatives ma
jority Of thirty members, and with such
a majority they will be able to accom-
plish little"
Col Wedgewood reviewed the achieve
ments and aims Of the British Labor
party at night meeting in Cooper
Union under the auspices of the Ameri-
can Labor party. The English Labor
party has an advantage over such a
party in America, Col. Wedgewood
thought, because in Great Britain the
people are homogeneous and class dis
tinctions are permanent.
In the United States the various
groups of peoples are jealous of each
other and here each man looks forward
to being boss later on or to seeing ''hi
son a university professor"

VIII Advise Dissolution.

LONDON, Oct. 20 (Associated Press) -
Andrew Bonar Law In message to an
evening newspaper confirmed his ihten-
ton to advise King George to imme-
diately dissolve Parliament, and added
that this fact would give ample time to
deal with the Irish legislation. He did
not Indicate. however. whether the pres
ent Parliament would reassesnble ac-
cordlng TO schedule on November IA to
deal with the Irish question. or whether
general elections would be held imme-
diateiy and the Irish legislation left to
the new Parliament.
Eth, plan will be practicable, the
only point being that ratihca ion of the
IRISH treaty must be effected before
December 8. Whic ever course is
adopted Irish legislation is quite safe
from any attempt to Illustrate an Irish
settlement.
Mr.. Lloyd George, In a message sent

against Lloyd George, and therefore will
be purely personal contest. There is
no great question now before the coun-
try for the electorate to decide, and
from the slight indication already at
forded, the ex-Premier. who Is in a
great fighting mood. seems to turn the
whole contest on the personal equation.
Political circles consider 1t win be
interesting to watch and see how far
the conservative electorate will follow
the Bonar Law Ministry in throwing
off allegiance to Lloyd George and
whether his powerful lieutenants. Lord
Balfour. Lord Birkenhead. Austen Cham
berlain, Sir Robert Horne and others
who followed their chief into the will
derness will be able to maintain the
somewhat anomalous position as con-
servative adherents of nominally lib
eral chief, or whether they. gradually
will drift back into the regular Unionist
fold
The press was very busy to-day in
forming a new Cabinet for Bonar Law.
The speculatlons of the newspapers
showed there was no lack OF able men
for a new administration. There was
general agreement that Stanley Baldwin
would be the new Chancellor of the
Exchcuuer and Lord Curzon the For
eign Secretary, but In other respects
there was agreement only on the names
of leading men--Charles Amory, the
Earl Of Derby, the Marquis Of Salisbury
Lord Selbourne, Sir Arthur Griffith-Bos'
cawcn. Sir George Younger. and others
but not on the posts they would fill.
The most interesting suggestion, which
has been advanced with considerable
air of authority, is that Lord Carson
the former Ulster leader, Will be the
new Lord Chancellor. This would prove
a very interesting appointment by reason
of the fact that Lord Carson. strong
anti-Free State man. would replace Wis.,
count Birkenhead, who has been an ar
dent supporter of the Irish treaty. Pi-
quancy would be added to the situation
because of the fact that the former close
friendship between the two men was
cooled because of their divergent views
on Ireland.

PAISH ASCRfBES BLAME
TO COALITION CABINET

Course Is Uncertain.

Sir George Paish, British economic
expert, editor Of the statist. and, In
wartime. adviser to the Chancellor of the
Exchequer. arrived yesterday by the
Cunarder Aquitania. from Southampton,
with some reflections on the fall of the
Lloyd George regime.
All the blame should not fall on the
little Welsh Premier, said Sir George.
but should be borne by all the members
of his Cabinet. He went on:
What will be done next no one knows
definitely. Whether the Conservatives
will go before the people for general
election. as I believe trey will. may no.
be decided for time. II is better an
absolute Conservative OF an absolute
Liberal Government rather than an at

If these two tendencies persist. gen.
eral election Is sure to see bitter fight
between the two old comrades.
Bitter Fight Forecast.
II Lloyd George makes good the
threats of fight contained in his utter
ances to-day, It will mean he will be
found leading bitter opposition across
the floor when the house converfes. In
that event he may attach enough of his
former Coalition support and enough
grudging assent by Labor and Liberal
members to make the Governments ma
jority uncertain.
In the city to-day. among the Bonar
Law supporters and elsewhere. the
change was welcomed enthusiastically.
A suggested slogan for the new Gov
ernmenu is Peace. prosperity and no
damned REFORM" the pacific part of
which means the cultivation of good
relations with America and France.
Most persons say the Prime Minister
designate will agree to that In the
first place, he wants to be friends with
France but II France proves obstruc-
tive to the other plank of the platform
prosperity to be attained through the
restoration Of normal European trade
Mr. Bonar Law will prove less reluctant
than was Mr.. Lloyd George TO break
definitely with the old ally.
He probably will go even further than
Mr.. Lloyd George In pursuit OF friend
ship with America. His last threat to
France was that Great Britain would.
in fact. initiate America in isolation
from European affairs. All his sup
porters insist that this former Canadian
as a good business man is committed
firmly to a policy OF debt repayment
and the cultivation OF American con-
fidencc. 1t was insisted to-day that the
policy toward the British debt TO the

Walter Camp Discusses Shift
 Plays and Their Development
tBy Pacific & AtlAntiof

so prominent that there is a report that Texas football players have sent a man to South Bend to study these and that Rockene, the Metre Dame coach, is elaborating still further his style and will produce even more startling formations this season. Meantime, the rules committee has gone long way toward helping the officials and also putting more of burden upon shift plays by legisla- tion that clearly defines when and where men may be in motion. The right of one man to be in motion toward his own goal line is per- mitted.
 Value of Shift Plays.
 Altogether, no play has come up for greater discussion than this shift. There have been schools which un- reservedly denied the value of shift plays and contended that as soon as the opponents shifted to meet the play, the situation was equalized. But those who have developed and have coached shift plays, no not be- lieve this and have paid very lit tie attention to such criticism. They declare that shifts do bother an opposing team considerably. It is true that an experienced and veteran eleven. with years of defensive work behind it, does not have great trouble in analyzing and meeting shift plays unless the plays are of very high quality. and involve considerable de- ception. A shift play poorly devised and executed in a slovenly manner is worse than no shift at all, because 1t is not effective, and moreover, is likely to unduly exhaust the team making the shifts.
 But the principle is sound and based really upon Lorin Deland' $ flying wedge" theory for suddenly transferring superior power and weight against a point which cannot be quickly protected.
 The quick backfield shifts of Penn State last year depended largely upon their beautiful execution, but they were as effective as some of the more numbering line shifts of other teams. There are many expert coaches who would like to see the shift plays entirely abandoned There is another school of coaches; like Rockne, of Notre Dame, who carried the shifts to a point where by special timing tlfey have blended not only the sudden movement of men in running attack but also with the forward passing game, and these men believe thoroughly that the shift is proper development of the art of attack.
 The new rules will undoubtedly slow down the shift plays, especially when made by big linemen, for 1t takes such men longer to come to stop and then start again than 1t does light, shifty backfield men.

Special Correspondent of The Age -Hcra Copyright. 1929, by Tho Agc-HeraldI


 Copyright. 1929. by The Age-Herald,
 New York, August 1s.-By far the most interesting feature of the foot ball rules for 1922. which have just come to hand, are the careful provi- sions laid down as to tho legality of shift plays. This style of attack resulted in such heated controversy last fall that for a time It seemed liable to bring the eastern and west ern schools of football into sharp conflict. However any trouble of this scrt seems to have been a"erted and it is likely that the rules as now set down will bring satisfaction in all quarters.
 Before discussing these stipula-
 tions it might be well to see where these shift plays began, how far they are likely to go even under restric- tioEs. Technically. then, the first shift play came into existence when team endeavored to get off a sur prise kick" The eleven lined up in
 running formation, and then the full back suddenly took two or three steps backward, received the ball and kicked 1t. When, therefore, the rules were made good again, man in motion, it was necessary to pro- vide for this play, and the rule was made to read that before the ball was put into play one man of the team might be in motion toward his own goal.
 This led to the development by Glenn Warner of the so-called In dians flying interference" which. by the way he had used before there were any rules to prevent, it but after these rdules, he developed by having one man on the end of the line start In wide sweeping swing. This was also the play which was used considerably in the last few seasons by Princeton.
 Development of Shift Plays. But the shift plays, as generally known, came into notice through George Woodruff's guards back" at Pennsylvania university. The tackles back" at Yale, which was successful. was developed on a diff ferent plan. but also involved the shifting of linemen to the back field. The broadest development of shift plays, however, came through Harry Williams at Minnesota and John Heisman at Georgia Tech. Both these plays consisted of chang ing one formation into another sud- denly and particularly through the use of heavy linemen in the shift. Later on. double and triple shifts were developed on the Pacific coast, much to the confusion of opponents, and it must be confessed, sometimes to the confusion of the officials. Then came more recently, the Notre Dame shifts, and these have become
