r UNIVERSITY OF MARYLAND
is due to vary its foot ball
" practice Of the next three
days with scrimmages
against the Quantico Marines
Lieut.. Joe Berger, former Mary
land tackle, is to bring about IS
members of the Quantico squad
here this afternoon to remain
until Saturday night.
Practice of this kind is what the
Maryland squad needs. In fact. If the
players could stand up under it, such
practice would be very beneficial II 1t
could be held every day for the hrst
month of the season. No small part OF
the problem in regard to the Maryland
squad is to teach the players how to
carry out the mechanical part of Of
fensive foot ball. Many Of the men
now making up the squad never played
the game until they came to the uni
versity, while the foot tall that most OF
the others know would not fill a very
big book.
MARYLAND has a typical sophomoric
1v1 team only with considerable less
experience than the average sec
ond year collegiate group. To such q
group there Is just one hope, which is
to develop through almost constant
scrimmage the various mechanical
methods of elementary foot ball. And
there is no medium through which such
development can be attained more
rapidly than through workouts with q
group that does not have the same kind
of plays and that is strange in the sense
that different foot Eall IS played.
The Marines apparently do not have
as greatA team as some Of the eleVens
that have worn their colors. However,
several men are in the lineup VINO are
exceptional players. amcng them Bauer,
former star halIback at Navy.
Maryland has been lining up tenta-
tive f1rst-string team this week with
Vincent and Benner on ends, Rouzer
and keenan, at tackles, Farrell and
Mcdonald, guards; Webb, center, and
Woods, Poppleman, Kiernan and Mel
son in the backfield. OF these, Woods,
Poppleman and Herman are all that
are left of last years team. Kiernan
played second string to Berger year
ago, while Benner was q second-str1ng
end. Vincent has never played foot
ball, while. Nelson, Webb, Mcdonald.

HOOVER PREPARES
TO WORK At CAMP
viii Correct Proofs of Ac-
ceptance Speech While at
the Rapidan.

President Hoover made preparations
today for a motor trip to his Rapidar
camp, where he intends 10 spend the
week end with Mrs Hoover and Smai
group of guests. At the camp he hopes
to complete the task of correcting TIE
proof Of his acceptance speech, to be
delivered here next Thursday.
Mr. Hoover has been giving an in
creasing amount Of time to his accept
ance speech Although one proof oi
the address has been printed, he expects
to revise it and White House officials
have estimated it might not be finally
completed before next Wednesday.
The President altered his daily rou-
tine this morning by not going to his
desk in the Executive Office until nearly
10 o'clock. After breakfast with Roy
w. Howard, newspaper publisher, he
went to the Lincoln study instead OF
going to his Office and there gave his
undivided attention to his acceptance
speech proofs.
1t was indicated Mr. Hoover expected
to return to Washington Monday morn
ing. but this is not definite. In the
event the President finds it convenient
to remain in the mountains until Tues
day. he will do so, it was said
Van Valkenberg, former Philadelphia
newspaper publisher. and Mrs. van
Valkenberg, Col. Hanford MacNider
Minister to Canada, and Charles Hib-
bard Spokane industrialist.
Mr. Hoover made only one engage
ment today and that was for confer
ence at II o'clock with Senator Howell
of Nebraska. However, soon after he
arrived in his office, Secretary of State
Stimson arrived for half-hour confer
ence, the second in "a hours.
Arrangements for the lawn party at
the White House Thursday afternoon
incident to the official notification cere-
monies. are understood to have been
virtually completed. In the meantime
officials Of the national committee are
engaged in making preparations for the
ceremonies that night at Constitution
Hall.
The Presidents 58th birthday ami
versary Wednesday, one day in advance
of his notification, will be observed
quietly. Neither the President nor
Mrs. Hoover take a great Geal of notice
of birthday anniversaries, and it Is
unlikely the Presidents customary daily
routine will be altered.
Mrs Hoover is planning an attrac-
lively iced birthday cake, with candles,
to grace the table during the evening
meal on that day.
When the White House today was
asked for comment upon published re-
ports that President Hoover recently
has received what was described as a
final plea from dry interests to COM
pose his acceptance speech SO as to
not ALLEVIATE dry Republican votes, es-
pecially in New York State, no CON-

WINSTON-S SALEM N. c., August
6.-Judge A. M. Stack announced to-
day he would grant bond to Alb Walker
Winston Salem youth, indicted with
Mrs Libby Holman Reynolds in the
death of the latters husband, Smith
Reynolds, Winston Salem millionaire.
Judge Stack, at hearing soon after
ward, fixed Walkers bail at $2500O. 1t
was not Immediately arranged.
Although Higgins told the court the
evidence now before him does not con-
stitute a non-bailable offense, he made
it plain he reserved the right to try
Walker on a first degree charge in the
event additional evidence is uncovered
before the trial begins.
Two Separate Cases.
Asked if his action today indicates
that he will adopt similar attitude
toward Mrs. Reynolds when her petit
ton for bail is submitted, Higgins said:
'Emphatically, No They are two
separate cases. 1 will not cross that
bridge until I come to it,"
Bailey Liipfert and Oscar Efird at
torneys for Walker, argued for light
bond
They said they had no one to look
to for the money except the youths

large owner of real estate, but with
little ready cash.
Libby Holman will come to Winston
Salem in considerably less than a
week" Benet Polikoff, one of her at
torneys, said. Meantime, he said, her
father Alfred Holman, will make no
further moves to arrange bail.
Libby will return voluntarily" &C
cording to her father. to answer the
charge Of husband murder.
This assurance did not deter officers
in Ohio, Delaware and New York today
from pushing the search for the actress.
Her Presence Necessary.
Solicitor Carlisle Higgins had said he
believed bond could not be obtained
without the physical presence here of
the defendant.
Miss Holmans illness, which has
been given as the reason for her failure
to surrender, was ascribed by her ia
ther, a Cincinnati lawyer, to shock and
to the fact that she is an expectant
mother.
A formal statement by counsel for
the former actress said:
Mr.. Alfred Holman, father OF Mrs
Smith Reynolds, came to Wlnston-Sa- =
lem in the hope that he might be able
to arrange bond for his daughters ap-
pearance here at such time as the court
might direct and thereby spare his
daughter the discomfort of an arduous
journey in her present condition. Sne

OTTAWA, Ontario, August 6.-T'he
plans Of the dominionS for trade agree
ments with Great Britain were all in
the hands of British delegates today.
The British were expected to begin
making their decisions next week.
The two exceptions were the Irish
Free State and India, whose delegates
indicated they did not come to the
conference to treat with Great Britain.
In each of the other instances the
dominions asked the mother country
for a protected British market for their
products, chiefly agricultural.
There was a tacit promise that the
British answers would be transmitted,
beginning Monday, but there was no
indication that these would be made
public.
Ancient Policy Involved.
1t was made quite plain that to grant
their requests Great Britain would have
to forsake her time-honored policy of
her decision would be based on wheth-
er the inducements were SUFFICIENT.
Those close to the British said the
delegation undoubtedly would seek ma
terial compromises. AS it stands, they
are asked to break virtual monopolies
for Denmark and Argentina on bacon
and chilled beef, practically to exclude
Russian lumber and to raise trade bar
tho TTnitod
States and other foreign countries.
The British prefer Danish bacon, it
was pointed out. Huge English flnan-
cial interests would be at stake in the
exclusion of Argentine beef. Russia
pays of her commercial obligations to
the United Kingdom with lumber.
amounting to $150,000,000 last year.
Besides, Great Britain depends on for
eign markets. including the United
States. to take more than half her
annual exports.
Revenue Question Enters
The question of revenue also entered
into the consideration. The British
expect to collect about $l00,000,000 a
year from their present tariff law. To
increase it's duties too high, they have
pointed out, would keep out imports
and defeat it's revenue object.
1t was expected she would present
counter-proposals. Most important Of
these, from the standpoint of the
United States, is likely TO be on the
question of empire content" that pro-
portion of home labor and materials
which must go into products made in
foreign branch plants IN empire terri
tory to make them eligible to trade
preferences.
1t was understood British textile in
terests, the chief value of whose prod
ucts is in cotton imported from the
United States, would oppose Canada S
