She has failed to fly during the last
few days because her hull has been
weighted down with considerable wa

clear. The machine is now hauled I'D

PROBATION OF THE GREAT
WORK BEING DONE.

Adam SchantZ, of Daytona, Ohio,
warm friend of Daytona and with
many friends in the city and vicin-
ity. fully appreciates the great work
which Commodore c. G. Burgoyne is
doing for Daytona and as token of
his appreciation has forwarded a do
nation of SIS for the chair fund of the
Burgoyne band casino. Mr.. Shantz
since the disposal of his business in
terests here has made a practice of
spending at least two weeks each
season in the city and his friends
will be glad to know that he expects
to come to Daytona, as usual He
is prince of good fellows and his
example with regard to the chair fund

ed through Geo. H Ludwig and was
accompanied by the following note:

Mr.. George H Ludwig,
"Daytona, Fla
My dear Mr. Ludwig:
Enclosed herewith find check for
s25. which kindly get to the Bur
goyne chair fund.
i am in hopes of getting away to
spend some time at Daytona. Up our
way we have had some hurdles to
clear the past year or so. Having
cleared them, we find business, gen.
orally, headed in the right direction,
going good and strong. This seems
so general, that l am of the opinion
Florida will experience fat season
following several more or less lean
ones.
Get another Burgoyne or two down
your way, and you viii have to put
on several extra policemen to keep
the crowds a-moving.
with best OF good wishes, am,
Sincerely,
ADAM SCHANTZ."

CObuRN MAKES new
RECORD AT SANFORD

F. NJ. Rowe received telegram
this morning from ]. A. Coburn, San
ford. stating that Coburn's Ministries
had played to a record-breaking house
in Orlando with an absolute sell-out
and 116 standing room for the first
time in the history of the house. This
always popular minstrel troupe is en-
joying a phenomenal run of business
the present season and as Daytona
always gives the troupe a full house
it is a question if there will be even
standing room at the performance at
the New Daytona theater the last OF
the month.

Asserting the car shortage is the
worst it has been this year, Santa Fe
officials today renewed their requests
for shippers, at destinations, to be

quicker the cars are returned to the
company the less trouble shippers will
have in obtaining cars.
The shortage includes practically all

Makes New Building Necessary.


Scott City, Kan, Oct. 5.-The atten-
dance in the schools of Scott City has
increased more than % per cent over
what it was last year. During the
summer, a five-room addition was
built to the high school, and one
teacher was added to the faculty. In

SETTLE *. 0. SORORITY ROW.
Fair Cold. Sought by Two Orders
Breaks Pledge and Is Penalized.

Lawrence, Kan, Oct 5-Miss
Helen Cook, University of Kansas
freshmen, from Coffeyville, rushed by
two popular sororities, pledged by
both of them, was today member of
Lena G. Baldwin, president of the Ma
tional Pan-Hellenic.
Miss Baldwin, whose home is in
New York, Strengthened out the tan
gle that threatened to take all the
gaiety out of K. U. sorority life and
inject a goodly share of gloom into it,
by declaring that Miss Cook, the bone
of contention, is neither a pledge of
Chi Omega nor of Kappa Kappa
Gamma, nor can she become a pledge
for "one calendar year"
Can't Join for Year.
Helen Cook, pledged to Chi Omega
with the reorganized pledge ribbon,
has broken her pledge with Chi Omega
and therefore cannot pledge to any
other sorority for one calendar year.
That, l think, should be clear Miss
Baldwin wrote Miss Elfrieda Fischer
president of the local Pan-Hellenic of
Sororities at K. U.
1t is common knowledge on the hill
and in the Latin quarters at Law
renee that Miss Cook first pledged Chi
Omega, broke her pledge to pledge
Kappa Kappa Gamma. Chi Omega
declared this was contrary to Pan
Hellenic rules and took the question
up with the national association with
the above results.
Miss Baldwin's decision that Miss
Cook cannot become a sorority girl for
one year closes the biggest row in K
U. fraternity circles that the school
has ever known.

she thought the hose was torn by
