 VACATION PLANS
Week-End in Mountains Devoted
 to Final Problems

Orange, Va. July 2S tPt-Presi- dent Hoover's definite plans for his western vacation trip and the prob able date of his departure from Washington are to be announced early this week.
 With his mind cleared of weight fer matters, Mir. Hoover was able 10 give the coming vacation thought while on his restful weekend in the mountains. Its end today found him with more definite views on the sub- ject.
 Several itineraries prepared by White House aides were considered by the president at his lodge on the Rapidan river. His selection, 1t was indicated, soon would be known. It has been expected generally that his departure from the capital will occur shortly after the meeting Aug ust of the republican national ex- ecutive committee which is to re- ceive the resignation of Claudius Huston as chairman of the republi- can national committee.
 Another major prospect he wished to place under way before leaving the preparation of a definite legis- lative program for the District of Colum bia-has been turned over to the district commissioners The president outlined his views to them during the weekend.
 Following his custom of last sum- mer when often he remained at his lodge until Monday the executive decided to depart for Washington with Mrs. Hoover after an early breakfast so that he-could be at his desk shortly after 2 o'clock. This was the first time this year he has been able to come to the lodge on Friday and remain until Monday.

 From a blood typing standpoint therefore, both children are identi- cal and may belong to either of the parents.
 The help to be derived from eye studies of the children is even more limited, owing to the fact that only in cases where both parents have pure blue eyes does the child inherit that enviable title of "a blue eyed baby"
