Maryland Out To Win
Next Football Tits

University of Maryland's football
team is definitely and decidedly "out
to win" its next two games, its
Homecoming affair with Washington
and Lee at College Park, Saturday,
and the tilt with Florida at Tampa
on December and it feels that it
has good chance of realizing it's
ambition and winding up the season
with satisfaction. At any rate, it
believes it will play by far the best
football it has shown this fall in
these two battles.
Maryland has been building" this
year and it did not hit on the click
ing background combination until it
upset Johns Hopkins, its oldest foe,
last Saturday, 81 to z. Then it sent
Dick Nelson, quarter; Joe Crecca and
Earl Widmyer, halfbacks, and Alton
(Buckey) Buscher, fullback, into the
fray at the outset. Crecca was
newcomer to the regular quartet and
Buscher was being definitely assigned
a regular job for the first time. Both
he and Crecca have been under
studies to Buddy Yaeger and George
Sachs, too much heavier sophomore
ball toters, whom they supplanted.

For Soccer Title
Team Has First Chance To Cop
Capital League HOnOrs
Since 192S-29

After four lean years, the Rockville
soccer club is again in a position to
gain place in the sun. The Mont
gomery County boys took the Capital
City League championship in the
1928-29 season and although they
have just founded since the title year
they are making great comback.
The Rockville boys are leading the
Capital City League by single point
and have a fighting chance to take
back to Rockville, and to Barney
Welsh, perennial sponsor of Rockville
sports, another title.
Alfred Candy and Mott Helm are
the only remaining players of the
1928-29 championship team and are
still the backbone of the club.
The other players who are making
soccer history for Rockville are Bill
Cleveland, Paul Bennett, Donald Butt,
Horace Hershberger, Doug Jones, Ell
mer Hutchinson, Len Coleman, Shocks
Harris, Izzy Steinberg, John Candy
and Percy Edmonston.

County Women Make Over
Coats For School Children

The reports from the FIVE "Coat
Schools" that have been held in the
county this past year bring out the
fact that homemakers have found it
worth their while to make over coats
for children.
Sixteen coats have been made from
old material at a cost of 1884, the
principle expense being for thread,
new buttons and interlining. The
mothers who made these coats esti-
mated that they saved easily $4,000.
In estimating this amount, they took
into consideration what it would have
cost them had they had to buy new
material, or ready-to-wear coats. So
the estimate is very conservative.
Thirty-one coats made from new
material at cost of S111.00. The es-
timated saving on these thirty-one
coats is based on what it would have
cost the maker if she had bought the
coat or suit ready made, and it is es-
timated that saving of $2871O was
made.
There were 81 women who attended
these coat schools. All through the
winter months, as well as in the
Spring, these Coat Schools will be
held for the making of children's
coats, particularly.
The work was given under the di-
rection of Miss Helen Shelby, Cloth
ing Specialist, and Miss Edythe M.
Turner, County Home Demonstration
Agent.

Judicial Commission Will Recommend
New Laws Curling Race Propaganda
Approves Measures To Provide For Drawing OF Grand
Jury Every Month In The Counties Of Maryland
Trials Would Be Speeded Up Throughout State

In this connection, Mr.. O'Conor said
1T is not going too far to say that
with the above provisions faithfully
administered, that the average time
for the handling of a case from the
time Of arrest until final execution of
Judgment should not be longer than
three months"
For the purpose of protecting
women who are prosecuting witnesses
in cases of criminal assaults, it is
recommended that limitations be plac-
ed upon the rights of the general pub
lie to attend trials involving out
RACES upon women. Such changes in
the law, as are necessary to spare
women the embarrassment of testi-
flying in attack cases before crowd
ed courtroom, are desired.
Having adopted the recommends
tons of the various subcommittee,
the Commission as a whole has pre-
pared reports to Governor Richie,
upon which the Bills will be prepared
and submitted to the General Assemb-
ly for immediate action.

Maryland Crop Estimates
Slightly Lower Than 1892

Favorable weather conditions aided
Maryland farmers in their activities
during October, according to Richard
C. Ross, Federal agricultural statistic
ian for the Maryland Crop Reporting
Service Except in the Western part
of the State, good progress was made
in sowing grain and harvesting the
late crops. Production of field crops,
except buckwheat and soy beans, is
below last year and all fruit crops
show decline from last years esti-
mates.
The 1888 preliminary estimate of
corn is placed at 16,356,00 bushels,
which is only slightly lower than last
year, when 16,44O,OOO bushels we're
harvested. Yield per acre is placed at
20 bushels, which is / bushel below
last years average and bushels be-
low the 10-year average (1921-1930).
Total production of buckwheat is
estimated at 10000 bushels, an aver
age yield of Is bushels to the acre,
Reports indicate that this crop did not
suffer as much from the August storm
as was at first estimated.
Tobacco production is estimated to
be 1S,6SS,00O pounds, which is about
100000 pounds less than last year
and nearly 100000 pounds less than
the five-year average production
(1926-193O).
Potato and sweet potato production
is placed at 2,76O,OOO and 100000
bushels, respectively.

Recommendations for laws to pre-
vent lawyers from injecting them
selves into criminal cases in order to
spread race propaganda, or for other
Interior motives, will be made by the
State Judicial Commission, to the
Special Session of the Legislature
which convenes today, Thursday.
The Commission, at it's last meet
ing, called by States Attorney Her
bert R. O'Conor, of Baltimore, it's
Chairman, also approved measures to
provide for drawing Grand Juries
every month, in the Counties instead
of twice year, and to relieve the
Counties of the cost of maintaining
prisoners after conviction in the State
institutions, where an appeal has been
taken by the DEPENDENT.
The action proposed against lawy-
ers, it is said, is aimed at frustrating
future attempts of attorneys for the
International Labor Defense, a Com
munist affiliate, and similar organiza-
tons, from making courtroom sound
ing boards for their particular brand
of propaganda.
On the proposed bill to change the
method of selecting Grand and petit
jurors, it is planned to speed up
trials of cases in the counties, to
avoid delays and cut down expenses.
Under the new system, it will be pos
sible to have the Grand Jury act i'm
mediately and have petit jurors at
hand to sit in judgment as soon as
indictments are returned to the Court.
This does not mean, however, that
the rights of the accused will be jeop-
as due consideration will be
given the defendant to prepare his de-
tense.
1t will, however make it unneces-
sary to hold person in Jail for
months waiting indictment and trial,
and thus the county will be relieved
Of the burden of providing for his
keep. James Clark, States Attorney
for Howard County was one of the
eleven that composed the commission.
In his report to Governor Richie,
Mr.. O'Conor said earnest considera-
ton was devoted by the various mem
bers to plans, methods and formal
procedure by which district better
ment could be effected, to the end that
criminal justice might be prompt,
efficient and effective.
Elimination of delays on appeals
are intended by recommendations in
Mr.. O'Conor's report, calling for re-
duction in the time within which APP
peals from judgments in criminal
cases must be taken, and also the
period within which records must be
transmitted to the Court of Appeals.
A recommendation that all criminal
cases be given precedence in the
Court of Appeals over other cases, by
the automatic advancement for argu-
ment of such cases, also that the
Court of Appeals render its decision
without waiting for formal opinion
to be written in cases where the
judgments of the lower courts have
been affirmed by. the Appellate Court,
also that the mandate from the Court
of Appeals be sent Immediately to the
particular jurisdiction where the
judgment of the court has been pro-
nounced, in order that the said judg-
ment might be carried out.

Few producers. it is said, can sell
copper for less than cents foIlnd

TIE industry's outlook has changed
markedly during the past few months
as business recovery brought an in

cents a pound in the space Of few

DON after January l the most
precious photographic treasures
of the Library of Congress will
- be moved from their present
place of deposit to a new vault
now approaching completion in an ad-
dition recently constructed on the east
side of the Library building.
The entire collection Of the Rare
Books Division, valued beyond the ran
som of a dozen kings, Is to be housed
in a veritable fortress Of steel and con-
crete cunntngly hidden in the new wing
of the Library structure. There it will
have the best protection which modern
science is competent to afford. The
destructive forces of nature, including
fire, heat, cold, smoke, dust and damp,
as well as human enemies. will be shut
out from contact with the special jewels
of the Library's accumulated hoard.
A complete and distinct unit in it
self, the vault is surrounded by other
rooms, but its walls are as thick and
firm as though they stood alone. Few
banks have storehouses half as strong

Only a single entrance is provided,
and before it hang massive bronze doors
with a specially arranged tumbler lock
combination will be known to only a
selected few of the Library staff. An
ordinary ring-handle conceals the de-
vice, but q would-be intruder, ignorant
of the trick of it, might struggle for
hours with it in vain. It will open only
to those who are familiar with its
mystery.
