He will return from sea this eve ning and set out early In tho night by special train for Worcester, Mass., from whence he motors to Groton school to see his youngest son, John, graduate tomorrow. He will remain over a day, spending Sunday at his Hyde Park home and return to Wash ington early Monday.
