Brien to Chestnut street AUDI
torium Monday night is being
swamped with requests for tick
cts. The Royal Flying Corps
lieutenant is the only American
aviator to escape from the Ger

as the escape itself was daring.
Tickets have been issued by
the committee to care for all of
the hundreds of workers who
will participate in the Liberty
Loan drive on the industrial es-
adjustments of the city and dis
.trict. 1t is Very likely that the

thrown wide open TO the general
public at o'clock Monday night
