RICHIE, Cascade, Md., August 19.—VYesterday -was vet- erans’ day for the District National Guard undergoing training here and more than a thousand persons visited the camp, including members of various service organizations and friends and relatives of the men and officers. ‘The weather was clear and warmer than for several days previous, giving an impetus to sightseeing trips for the visitors and swimming by the troops in Lake Oehmann adjoining the camp site, The lake was named for Col. John ‘W. Oehmann, camp commander. ‘Those who came here for the day messed with the companies to which their friends or relatives belonged or in case of those who made the trip from Washington without coming to see a particular person a ticket was issued at regimental headquarters assigning them to one of the various messes. A number of the visitors arrived after the midday meal and departed before supper. Col Landis Guest at Lunch. Among the fathers visiting sons was Col. Howard L. Landis of the historical research department of the Army War College, whose son is a private in Com~ pany C. After greeting his son, Col. Landis lunched with the officers of the Tegimental staff, when he extended to all the officers an invitation to ac- company him at the termination of the present training period on a tour of the scene of the wilderness campaign of the Civili War and the Seven Days’ Battle. He explained that he is engaged in writing histories of Civil ‘War battles and must make the trip to procure the necessary data. The invi- tation was accepted and the trip will be arranged in all probability for the sec- ond week after departure from the camp. ‘Among others visiting Camp Ritchie ‘were Capt. Watson Miller, national re- habilitation officer of the American Le- glon and J. Maynard Magruder, vice president of the Smith Co, who is a former first lieutenant and battalion adjutant of the 121st Engineers. Regiment on Parade. A formal guard mount and full regi- mental parade were put on yesterday afternoon. Col. Oehwmann was the re- viewing officer. Yesterday morning the officers of the 29th Division staff motored to Martins- burg, W. Va., where they witnessed an aerial circus staged by the air service of a division encamped there. For most of the men the morning was spent in attendance at religious services. Protestant services were held in eamp for the Engineers, when music was furnished by the Engineers’ Band, led by Warrant Officer Meyer Goldman. The majority of those of the Catholic faith were sent in trucks to Waynes- boro, Pa., where mass was held in St. Andrew’s Catholic Church and an organist from the band played during the service. Training Schedule Resumed. This morning the regular training schedule, interrupted during the week end, was resumed, with Companies C and D going on the rifle range for rec- ord firing, Companies A and F continu- ing their preliminary instruction in rifle marksmanship, and Companies B and E working on the trench system being constructed as a model for Mary- land infantry, which will camp here next year.

Good' Job -and Not Parental Objections Cause Change f “in Wedding Dates. Wedding bells and the welcome call of opportunity are echoing simultaneously today in the ears of Albert Gwynn King, 24, well known Washington ten- nis star. Young King, who is the son of Maj. and Mrs, William A. King, United States Army, now stationed in the Capital, was married at midnight last night to Miss Margaret Martin, 24, niece of Mr. and ‘Mrs. Wellington Stopp of Huntington, W. Va. The ceremony was performed at the home of the Rev. Frank Tyler of Rockville, Md., whither the young couple had eloped, accompanied by Mr. and Mrs. Henry Christiana of Lyon Village, Va., sister and brother-in-law of the bridegroom, and by two family friends, Dr. and Mrs. Clarence R. Cook, also of Lyon Village. ‘The elopement was not the result of parental objections, but rather of pres- sure of time. Miss Martin and King had planned to be married in the near future at her aunt’s home, where she ents.. But opportunity, in the shape of an unusual appointment offered by U]nele Sam, changed the young people’s plans, Goes {o Ellis Tsland, King received word last week that he had been appointed chief of the di- vision of certificates of arrival at Elis Island, a post cf unusual responsibility for a young man. A hasty wire brought his flancee to Lyon Village for a week end visit at the invitation of Mrs, Christiani. The impromptu ceremony followed and the happy couple are spending an abbreviated honeymoon in the Virginia_suburb preparatery to de- p?rtmg for New York Wednesday eve- ning. Both King and his bride are well known figures on the tennis court. The former has held several titles in this section, among them the Western Mary- land singles championship, which he won for three successive seasons, and that of District doubles champion of 1927, won with Dooly Mitchell. He is ranked No. 13 in the Middle Atlantic States. Mrs. King is one of the most pop- ular young racketers of West Virginia. It was on the courts of the Edgewood Club at Charleston last Summer that the lanky blond ace was first pre- sented to her, who has since won her heart. Mr. and Mrs. King expect to make their home in Brooklyn, N. Y. Maj. King. the bridegroom's father, is on active duty with the Signal Cnrps with station at the War Department headquarters at the present time. —_— “Black Magic” Awes Africans.
