KING GEORGE y.
|NSPECTS PLANES
(By Associated Press)

Lincoln, England, April IA (By
maiD-king Georges first inspection
of American airmen in training was
made this week alta British aero
drome near here, where a squadron
of American aviators is working with
British pilots. One of the young
British officers at this camp is Prince
Albert, and the king and Queen Mary
had run down from London to see how
, their airman son was getting on.
During the inspection on the parade
groound the king spoke with several
of the American officers. The aero
drome is a finishing school fcr pilots
of both airplanes and balloons. Pilots
go ther after passing through their
preliminary course, and are taught
to loop, roll and dive, and to become
expert in the many other varieties of
acrobatics which are the mark of the
expert flying man.
Later they complete their educa
llOll WIFI courses OH HlelOIOlOSy anu
the theory of flight, and finally pass
on to gunnery school and qualify
for the rank of lieutenant. In sum-
mer, if the weather is favorable, the
recruit can go through the full pro-
gram in about ten weeks.
The king and queen, in the course
of about an hour, saw machines and
buildings and apparatus none Of which
was dreamed of three years ago. Spe-
cial attention was given to giant
Handley-Page machine which rested
on tarmac at the edge of the aero
drome.
i The king, after donnlng a Inen
.duster. climbed into the pilots seat
and the mechanism was explained tc
him by British and American Off

COTTON POOR

r. G. Goree is home from a trip to
the San Joaquin valley and reports
cotton up there as backward. 1t seems
! climatic conditions are not as ia
vorable there as here and, besides, the
farmers have not learned how to grow
cotton successfully there. In addition
to this, they have the Egyptian cot
ton fever, and Force says, and he
pretty nearly knows what he is talk
( ing about, that thus far Egyptian
cotton is not success here finan-
cially.
He believes that in time we will
learn how to grow it successfully and
that it will be all right, but there
must be special gins and special
handling, and all that.
"We made our money this year on
short staple" he said yesterday even
ling, "and that's the thing to stick to
right along. The Durango we had is
still in New Orleans unsold, while all
our short staple is sold and we have
the money for it in the bank. Per-
haps later we will raise the other cot
ton successfully, but now | consider
the short staple the best crop to

though not so exceptional an event
as the capture, some time ago, by cav
alrymen of a German submarine which
had run ashore, the taking Ger

warriors were limited to taking care

AS night fell that day, a German
plane landed gently in a meadow near
Fismes, out of sight of any house or
apparently any human being. The pi-
lot, who had lost his bearings, re-
mained at his post, keeping his en-
gine running and his hand on one of
the two machine guns on the ma
chine, while the observer consulted
his maps.
They were about to resume their
flight when the four territorials
rsuhed out of a little wood close by
and gave the word:
"Hands up"
Seeing that resistance was useless,
the officer ordered the pilot to get
out and surrender. The victors were
armed with a rifle and three hunting
guns. Their spoils were one unin-
jured German airplane, two mitrail-
leuses and two men.

Set of Matches to Which American

Into the British Method of Boxing,
Wherein Little Gore Flows.


Aldershot, England, April 13.-
! Correspondence of the Associated

in this district had an object lesson in
the conduct of big boxing match
here few days ago when they were

! soldiers at program of fourteen con-
tests between representatives of the
! Aldershot command and the Southern
Command of the British army.
The headlines of the tournament in
cluded about half of the best boxers
in England, now all in khaki. Among
them were Sergeant Jimmy Wilde,
Sergeant Rolfe of the Canadians, Sid
Burns, Corporal Billy Fullerton, and
several others whose names were we'll

being simple silver and bronze medals

ma, the program would qhave been
worth about $4,000 to the promoters.
J But the public was not admitted, and
the price of admission to the soldier
spectatirs ranged from 12c to 81 90.
The latter amount corresponded to
the $50 seats in the old days of the
National Sporting Club in Lonoon.
There was an enormous attendance
Of officers and men, together with a

Despite the keenness of the fight

any blood flowed. The majority OF
the men taking part were so physical
ly fit, owing to their military train

IN the ring and give and receive pun
ishment with degree of fortitude
seldom seen in professional boxing
meetings.
An impressive feature of the en-
tire competition, from the standpoint
of the American spectatirs, was the
scrupulously strict and fair referee

stopped Immediately, one warning on

up and engaged in shadow boxing also

There were fourteen contests alto
