WASHINGTON, July 9. (AP
Having fixed August 11 as the
date for receiving notification of
bis nomination for president, Her
bert Hoover, apparently is plan
ning a late campaign.
Definite plans for the notifica
tion were arranged today by Mr.
Hoover. He will receive formal
notification at Leland Stanford
university in Palo Alto, Cal., his
residence, August 11, leaving
Washington for California next
Saturday night.
The republican nominee will go
first to the summer residence of
President Coolidge on the Brule
river in northern Wisconsin,
reaching there next Monday
morning. A day will be spent with
Mr. Cooiidge and then he will
proceed to the Pacific coast,
reaching Sah Francisco about Fri
day. A celebration has been plan
ned in that city.
Date Slightly Late
The August date is a little lat
er than originally planned for the
notification exercises, which us
ually are regarded as the formal
opening of the campaign, the
nominee then setting forth his
views In a speech of acceptance.
President Coolidge was not noti
fied until the middle of August
four yeara ago but then the date
was delayed because of the death
of his son. Calvin, in July.
Meanwhile organization plans
for the republicans went forward
here today under the direction of
Chairman Work of the national
committee. He called another con
fcrence of committeemen for next
Monday in New York. Mr. Work
said he would attend the confer
ence, Indicating that he intended

The 1928 Chautauqua season is

event of the whole brlmmlna

The century's comedy-drama,
"A Message From Mars," is on
the schedule for tonight. The
thunder, lightning and scenic ef
fects which accompany thi Chau
tauqua offering are said to be
seldom outdone on the legitimate
stage. The play conveys an in
spirational message and story.
"A Message From Mars' was
first produced in London, meet
ing success there and later being
enthusiastically received in the
principal American dramatic cen
ter. At the head of the Chautau
qua cast Is Arthur MacMurray na
tionally known artist and pro
ducer, and every memtcr of the
cast was carefully selected to por
try his or her part with the ut
most suitability. Of course there
is a love theme; but the message
from Mars, is said to be potent.
This afternoon Mr. MacMurray
will give his famous "Cogitations
of a Lunkhead"; a comedy pro
gram will be given by the Mac
Murray cast, and by do means
least, the junior Chautauqua pa
