KELLOGG PAVES
WAY TO SIGNING
OF PEACE PACT
Final Note Is Expected to
Accept Invitation for
Paris Ceremonies.

BW United Press
WASHINGTON, July 20.-Twelve
nations having accepted the Amer
lean draft of the projected renunci-
alton of war treaty, with two others
still to report, Secretary of State
Kellogg today began drafting the
final note in the negotiations.
1t is understood this note will be
an acceptance of the anticipated in
vitation from France to sign the
treaty in Paris.
Provisional arrangements now are
being made for the Paris ceremony,
which probably will be held Aug. 20.
Should no further obstacles arise,
Kellogg will sail for France about
Aug. 20 or 81. Foreign ministers
from all other interested govern
ments, except Japan, likewise are
expected to attend.
Czecho-Slovakia is still to reply to
KellOgg's June % note. Favorable
answers of Great Britain, Australia,
Canada, India, New Zealand and the
Union OF South Aria were published
today. Japans unconditional &C
ceptance, announced in Toxic today.
will be published later.
The British and Dominion
answers found Kellogg's interpreta-
ton of the provisions of the pro-
posed treaty satisfactory. Foreign
Minister Chamberlin, however,
noted one exception on behalf Of
the Imperial Government, pointing
out that "as regards the passage Of
my note of the 10Th If May, relat-
ing to regions of which the welfare
and integrity constitute a special
and vital interest for our peace and
safety, need only repeat that His
Majesty's government accept the
new treaty upon the understanding
that it does not prejudice their
freedom of action in This respect
Since publication of the May l9
note the State Department stead
tasty has refused 70 comment on
this declaration of British

Canal, Egypt and other British
spheres of influence.

CHICAGO, Sept 19.-Champions in football, as in other sports, do not always repeat, but Illinois ap- pears to have good chance of duplicating it's 1927 title per formance in the Western Confer ence race The Urbana warriors took the crown on a percentage basis.
 With 15 letter men back, Coach Bob Zuppke's charges have until October 20 to prepare for their conference games. That is three weeks after the regular conference season opens. Just a break in the schedule but apparently a good break for the Illini.
 So, as September 25, the date of the conference practice season hears, the battle cry booming in the Big Ten camps is "Stop Hi nois!"

Two complete backfields, led by "Chuck" Ben nett, all-conference back, and "Pooch" Harrell, who topped the conference in average yards gained from scrimmage, makes the Hoo sier offensive one of the most formidable in the Big Ten.
 Jimmy Phelan at Purdue like wise has wealth of veterans, but his supply of reserves is scant. In the backfield will be "Pest" Welch, who carried consternation into the Harvard stadium last year. In the line will be the rock-like Capt. Harvey s. Olson at center.
