HELEN WILLS, TENNIS QUEEN,
WE'D FREDERICK MOODY, JR.
Engagement Rumored Since
1926 Is Announced by
Her Parents.
BetrOthed Pair Met While She
Played for Crown on
French Riviera.
BY the Associated Press,

BY the Associated Press.
BERKELEY, Calf. January 16.-Miss
Helen Wills, queen of the tennis courts,
is to marry Frederick S. Moody, jr., son
of a San Francisco capitalist.
The engagement. which was an
nounced here yesterday by her parents,
DR.. and Mrs. Clarence A. Wills, has
been rumored since 1926. when Miss
Wills was fighting her way toward the
woman's amateur net championship on
the French Riviera. Young Moody and
his father visited the Riviera while on
tour of Europe, and Miss Wills and
young Moody often were seen together.
Reports of the engagement were de-
MED. however, and only last week Miss
Wills confirmed such a rumor, saying
announcement of her engagement would
come from her parents and not from
the newspapers. The announcement did
come from her parents in brief note
mailed to her friends.
Moody, who is employed by a stock
brokerage company in San Francisco,
attended a private school near here
after which he took to the sea. He
served an apprenticeship aboard the
sailing ship Falls of Clyde, winning his
officers papers. He served as third,
second and finally first officer on some
Oh the MdCSOn Navigation 20. 5 vessels.
His family has been prominent in San
Francisco for, several years and his
father is member of the State High
way Commission.
Miss Wills tennis career began when
she was IA. AS a pupil Of her father
she won notice on the local courts. In
1921 she won the national junior tennis
championship in Forest Hills. When
she was II she defeated Molla Mallory
for the woman's American singles
championship. Mile. Suzanne Lenglen
defeated Miss Wills in France in Feb

new BRIDGE IN USE
!: BY 1881 FORESEEN
Grant Tells Appropriations
Subcommittee of Progress
Being Made on Span.

Arlington Memorial Bridge proper
will be completed next year, and it is
expected the approaches will be far
enough constructed to make some use OF
the bridge practicable in 1881, Lieut..
Col. U. S. Grant, Sd, executive officer
of the Arlington Memorial Bridge Com
mission, told the subcommittee con-
sidering the independent Offices appro-
priation bill for the fiscal year 1890.
The subcommittee was advised by Col.
Grant that sin some ways we are a
little ahead of the schedule" Every
thing so far has remained within the
estimates, except the water gate and
the Washington side connections with
the Lincoln Memorial, he said, explain
ing that placing the estimated eXpendi-
lures for the year 1890 at $780, 900
makes total SO far of $9,798,000.
Need Virginia Connection.
eff there is no road for us to connect
with on the Virginia side of the bridge, /
should not be inclined to spend any
money on temporary arrangements for
traffic, but would rather go ahead with
the more permanent work." Col. Grant
asserted. I'VE want a connection there
Con the Virginia side) with the Virginia
road system. If We do not have that
connection in sight it would be better
for us to use our money as soon as
possible on finishing up the Washington
side. The Washington side has rather
complicated system of approaches, con-
meeting with B street, with the Rock
Creek and Potomac Parkway and the
Lincoln Memorial Plaza. as well as
directly with the bridge. That is all a
very expensive and very fine architect
Ural composition"
Col. Grant made it clear that there
is no friction between the Federal Gov
eminent and Virginia highway COM
tnissioners.
There has been a change in the
plans which partly entailed that in
crease by including at the Washington
end of the bridge an underpass for
the park road" Col Grant said, in ex-
planning changes from original plans.
The original plans did not include this
separation OF grades. The estimates
did not include the cost of an arch
there for the park road to go by on
the lower level to avoid a crossing of
traffic at the end of the bridge. That
entails additional expense. But there
are other features unessential and the
commission thoucht that feature was
very essential as practical thing"
Additional Cost Placed at $4,000.
The additional cost of the underpass,
Col. Grant said, will be approximately
100000.
Explaining that there are small tenn
Piles proposed for Columbia Island in
cluded in the original estimates which
can be eliminated to keep within the
authorized amount, Col. Grant said
there is large amount of statuary
on the bridge ITSELF
Those features can be run up into
tremendous costs If in the future you
decide to add them, but they also can
be kept down and limited to some ex-
tent" he declared.

ENGINEER CALLING
WILL Be ANALYzED
Group From Profession to
Seek Fresh Detectives
in Study.

American engineers are planning to
apply the yardstick to the engineer as
a professional man, in an effort to set
up fresh detectives for the profession,
it Is announced by the American En-
gineering Council from national head
quarters. 26 Jackson place
The study will be conferred in WASH
ington by a committee headed by H. G.
Morris, retired mining engineer, OF 1858
Columbia road Other members OF the
committee are A. B. McDaniels of
Washington, representing the American
Society of Civil Engineers; Conrad N.
Lauer of Philadelphia, representing the
American Society of Mechanical Engi-
neers: H. A. Kidder of New York, rep
resenting the American Institute OF
Electrical Engineers, and L. w. Wal
lace of 26 jackson place, executive Sec
rotary of the council
Earnings to Be Analysed.
Committees from each of the en-
eineering groups will also work with
the council committee to furnish data
for the study.
Earnings will be analysed, the trends
of engineering thought will be explored
and machinery will be set up to adjust
the relationships of engineers wherever
difficulties arise locally or nationally.
Arthur w. Berresford Of New York,
president of the council, inaugurated
the study of the profession in the belief
that. as analyzers and planners for
other lines, they could be performing
themselves a constructive service by
Analysing their own calling.
Comparisons to Be Made.
In the study, comparisons will be
made between the engineering and
other professions particularly as to the
earnings of the individuals. The status
of the profession as measured by ap-
propriate standards will be ascertained
and the major trends of the profession
determined
The classifications planned as re-
suit of the study are expected to be Of
great service to the Government serv-
ices. The committee also will study
registration laws in States which have
them.

drawn means, signal equipment, combat
equipment, organiZational property and
baggage. supplies, certain personnel for
merly mounted on animals and for
nuclei of personnel to arm the heavy

RESERVE BOARD
MAY DOCTOR
MARKET

With the stock market find
Ing continued difficulty in get
ting onto an even keel after the
dramatic crash of the last few
weeks, therapeutic remedies may
be discussed next week when the
Federal Advisory Council holds
its quarterly meeting with the
Federal Reserve Board.
The council, composed Of bust
ness men from each Of the IL
reserve districts, will meet No
vember 19, in the first session
since prices Of stocks did their
unprecedented nose dive.
Easier Money
Officials said today that I'M
doubtedly the stock market stu
alton. and it's relationship to the
Federal reserve banking struc-
ture will be the principal topic
before the council. They saw the
possibility of recommendations
for general reduction of the
reserve bank rediscount rates to
4 or AZ per cent. The present
level is 5 per cent.
Reports were expected to go
before the advisory council in
dicating easier money conditions
through the country as a result
Of the market crash, which
brought out decrease Of more
than $500, 100000 in brokers
loans. With this tremendous
volume of credit diverted from
the market and available for the
uses of productive business and
agriculture, there has been gen
eral easing of money conditions
which would justify reductions
in the rediscount rates, in the
opinion of many officials.
Urging Increase
For a year prior to the stock
market break the advisory council
had been urging increases in the
rediscount rates to curb specula-
tive activity and to divert credit
from the market. At several
meetings resolutions were made
public through the reserve BOARD.
At the time of the last gathering
the New York bank had been
permitted to increa se to a per
cent level and the council sug-
gested no further changes at
that time.
It was understood that the
board was making a general sur
vey Of the financial situation in
advance of the meeting OF the
council. Gov. George L. Harrison.
of the New York bank, conferred
with Secretary Mellon and toe
board and was said to have laid
a complete picture Of New York
conditions before them. Harrison,
it was understood, expressed the
opinion to the board that bank
ing and business conditions were
fundamentally sound.
