ROME, Aug. (By The Associated

Venice to Milan to-day with fourteen
persons on board fell to the ground
from height of 1000 metres (about
$500 feet) near Verona. All on board
were killed
The giant Caproni arplanes were
specially designed and built to estab-
lish passenger service between the
principal Ita ian cities, which was to be
further extended to French and British
cities as the business developed. The
service between Venice and Milan was
to be inaugurated this summer, and
yesterdays disastrous fight may have
been the first trip of the ill-fated ma
chine.

AUDUBON AGAIN VICTORIOUS

II is becoming common OF late
when reporting the basket ball games
played between other teams and Au-
dubon to read, Audubon wins. The
Carroll-Audubon game played here
last Friday night proved no exception
to the rule and Audubon was winner
by the score of 80 to 8. The game
was battle royal from start to fin
ish and there was enough action for
all in the contest. Audubon excelled
in basket shooting, being led by Hart
and Fullerton who had and bas-
kets to their credit. Audubon. as
usual. played a clean game, but Car
roll, from reports given us, pulled a
few raw stunts. which does not go to
the credit of clean basket ball The
officiating was poor, allowing a mum
Der of fouls by the Carroll team to be
overlooked, much to che detriment
of Audubon. Friday nights win
makes them four straight victories
Audubon has an open date for to-
morrow night so far as we are able
to learn at the time of going to press
On February 2Sth. both the boy and
girl teams of Audubon will contest
with the Manning teams. Friday
March 7th, Avoca will send its boy
team to Audubon for game and on
Friday, March 18th, the boys team
of Anita will play on the local floor
These games should be more than in
teresting. as Avoca or Anita have not
lost game this season. But, we
are of the opinion that one or the
other is in for trimming when they
meet the Audubon team.
