ITALIAN FORCES
 OPEN CAMP AICN
Activities on Three Fronts Indicate Early Start
 of War
By EDWARD W. BEATTTE

By EDWARD w. BEATTTE United Press Stan CorrespondentD (Copyright 1SsB By United Prcss)
 Addis Ababa, Sept. s0-(UP)-- Italian military forces in East Af- rica have begun activities on three fronts which are believed to signal early invasion of Ethiopia, 1t was learned officially today.
 The preparations indicate q three-part drive from the north, from the Great Eritrean base of Asmara; westward, from the base at Assab, at the southern tip of Eritrea, and westward and north- westward from the Ualual region of Ethiopia near the Italian Som aliland frontier.
 Emperor Halle Selassie I, 1t was said officially, had in mind the Italian activities when he tele- graphed the League of Nations Saturday describing sharpening preparations despite our pacific at- titude" and announcing that Ethi- opia must issue a general mobili- zation order.
 He definitely referred, 1t was said, to movement of Italian troops from the Assab region, flights of Italian military observation planes over Ethiopian territory and daily firing from Italian machine guns and artillery designed to "frighten or provoke Ethiopian outposts."
 These activities, after two weeks relative quiet, were believed by Ethiopians to indicate the immin- ence of hostilities.
 Tension resulting from the long period of waiting has been relaxed by intenslfication of military &c- tivity and the prospect of general mobilization.
 The winding. narrow streets are filled with armed regulars and IT, regulars and chieftains accom- panied by their warriors here to receive last minute. instructions.

SKEET CLUB WINS
UNIQUE STRUGGLE
Beats Izaak Walton Leaguers in
Combination Contest of
Shooting and Casting.

BECAUSE the National Capital Skeet
Club members proved better
casters than the Izaak Walton Cast
ing Club devotees were skeet shooters,
the former won a cast-skeet match
yesterday in a novel competition over
the Skeet Clubs course. The skeet
shooters outscored the casters, 1877
728, with each club far surprising
the other in its particular brand OF
shooting. 1t was thought to be the
first time that casting and skeet
shooting ever had competed in t.
gether.
The rivals showed about eqyy,a in
ability to handle the strange E<apons
while both rang up identical scores
in their speciality. But the skeeters
scored 32s points as casters. while
the casters could tally but 800 as skeet
shooters, and the nine points differ
ence was the margin Of victory, both
ringing up 40s when shooting in their
familiar roles.

individual honors for the day when

Of 174, six more than Houghton OF

NATIONAL Dog week this year oc-
ours from September % to %.
The motto for the week is Every
home needs a dog" The reasons why
every home needs dog are as varied
as the homes. Among the commonest
reasons given by dog purchasers are
as pets, the overwhelming need Of the
world to love; as guards and watch
dogs. one dog often being worth sew
eral men in this capacity; as workers
on farms; as teachers of unselhshness
and various other desirable traits to
youngsters.
One Of the most pathetic reasons
given for the acquisition of a dog,
and one Of the reasons most frequent
ly given, Is the need of a substitute
for lost or unattainable baby. But
If cne cannot have a baby, q dog
does make very satisfactory sub
stitute.
