WONDERS ABOUND
IN YELLOWSTONE
Three Big Talking Points Of
Scenic SpectacIes Have
Many Rivals.

YELLOWSTONE NATIONAL PARK,
July 23-Little more than . thirtieth
Of the area Of Wyoming. in which 1t Is
largely located, Yellowstone National
Park crowds within its boundaries
enough natural wonders for an entire
continent.
Old Faithful Geyser, the Falls and
the Grand Canyon Of the Yellowstone
have come to symbolic the park, but
these are only three Of . myriad Of
great natural attractions within the
area.
Thousands Of Others.
Old Faithful competes with no
less than 5000 other geysers and hot
springs for the interest of travellers
in the park. One Of the most beau-
tiful and regular of them all, Old
Faithful has several worthy rivals, in
cluding Giant Geyser. which shoots
almost twice as high and for an hour
at time. but erupts only once in =

is spectacular. for it throws a great
stream OF water 200 feet in the air
for half to three-quarters of an hour
at time and erupts every Is to 20
hours. Imperial Geyser used to hold
the record for long eruptions-it con-
tinued to spout for four to five hours,
but has become inactive, apparently
wornout by such violent activity.
At the other end OF the scale from
the grandiose in Yellowstone is Apol-
linaris Spring. near Mammoth Hot
Springs. Travellers do not see the
spring at all. but it is piped to the
roadside 50 that one can easily sample
its charged waters. Every one, Of

occasionally mother bear, accom-
panied by one black and one brown
cub, will amble about the grounds Of
the hotel. Different In coloring, the
cubs are nevertheless twins blond
and brunette members Of the same
family.
Best known and largest in the area,
the Falls Of the Yellowstone are not
the only ones in the park: Tower
Falls. 20 miles to the north, is higher
than the upper falls OF the Yellow
stone and has q setting which Is per-
haps even lovelier. Great needle like
formations rise on each side of the
falls to form striking contrast with
the deep green of nearby trees. The
drive from Tower Falls to Mammoth
Hot Springs Is also rich In scenery,

ARMORY PLANS
TO Be MODIFIED

A National Guard armory for
washington, with an auditorium
of 5000 capacity is nov being con-
sidered by champions of q new
armory for the District, it was
learned today.
1t is understood architectural
plans for this type of armory will
be drafted by the Treasury De-
partment's procurement division
before January.
This type is a modified form Of
the auditorium proposals of Presi-
dent Roosevelt, who has favored
an auditorium to seat $4,000 per-
sons, for such events as inaugurals.
Because of the great expense of
such a project, it is felt that Con-
greSS would not sanction funds for
it, and NATIONAL Guard armory
friends are now hoping to obtain
an appropriation for the modified
structure out of Federal funds.
No money was provided for an
armory in the PWA allotments for
the District, and District Commis-
sioners have failed to include such
an item in the new budget.

Changes Are Forecast
In Procedure Rules
By Justice Luhring
Cummings Listens In
On Lecture Before
bor Groups

With Attorney General Homer S.
Cummings an interested listener,
Justice Oscar r. Luhring of District
Court last night delivered a lecture
on the new Rules of Civil Procedure
before the District of Columbia Bar
Association and interested groups at
the Mayf1ower Hotel, foreshadoWing
further changes, as experience die
tates, in these court guides.
Justice Luhring invited every law
yer to send in suggestions on the
new rules. declaring this is not a
closed corporation" and saying that
he desires the District of Columbia
to stand up ahead of all the other
Federal colIts. He added that I'VE
must get down to the spirit of the
Federal rules promulgated by the
Supreme Court and sanctioned by
Congress.
THE new rules will likely be re-
vised and amended" said Justice
Luhring. perhaps we do have too
many. Perhaps some of the rules
can be eliminated. We accepted
them from this Special Committee,
until we can have more time and
experience with them
The Grievance Committee, said
the jurist must have authority
to have subpoenas and put witnesses
under oath to get the truth, in
pointing out that it is to the interest
Of The lawyers to keep the bar clean.
1,1O0 Attend Lecture.
Justices of the United States Court
of Appeals and of the District Court
were present and altogether some
100 persons filled the ballroom in
which the lecture was given. The
gathering was representative of the
District of Columbia Bar Associa-
ton, under whose auspices it was
given; the Women's Bar Association
the Federal Bar Association, the
American Patent Bar Association
which was represented by its presi-
dent, William B. Kerkam, and the
Washington Bar Association.
H. Winship Wheatley, chairman
Of the special committee named by
the District Court to revise the rules
and his colleagues on that body
occupied seats on the platform.
Attorney General Cummings, re-
marking that he would soon be one
of the lawyers again, referring to
his forthcoming retirement from
official life, paid tribute to Justice
Luhring as a jurist, remarking that
he was a former Assistant Attorney
General of the United States and

this type always makes good Judges.
Presiding was the president of the
Bar Association of the District of
Columbia, Godfrey L. Munter, who
introduced the cabinet officer.
Seen as Aid to Justice.
Justice Luhring took up the rules
individually and illustrated them
with cases from the law books and
said that they represent the cream
of the best in the various States
that have code procedure, which is
new to the District. Even if lawyers
misconcieve the clients rights, the
new rules enable the court to see
that justice is done, said the justice.
The new rules provide that master
and servant can be sued in the same
case now and this is particularly
valuable, said Justice Luhring, in
cases of automobile collisions. He
dwelt at length on the projected pre-
trial procedure, under which the
case would be stripped to its essen
tials, declaring that this method
permits the truth to be ascertained
more readily, the likelihood of per-
jury being lessened, with honest and
spontaneous testimony forthcoming,
A record of testimony of persons who
die before trial would be available.
said he, and this would be used at
the trial itself.
The rule for summary judgment.
said Justice Luhring, is not being
used as much here as he had eX-
pected. In Detroit. where the pre-
trial procedure has been marked
with signal success, he said, many
settlements are made before the
cases reach trial, thus clearing a
congested docket The average pre-
trial procedure, he said, takes about

Not Adopted Here.

procedure has not yet been officially
adopted here. Justice Luhring said
