PROTECT SHIPPING

i RADIO COMPASS S-STATIONS TO

Quered by radio, according to advices
received here telling progress of nav
al communication service investiga
tion into plans for establishing radio
compass stations
Floyd E. Dunklee, radio electrician
of the service, is now in Juneau, AL.
Investigating sites for stations, having
recently completed the work of install

San Francisco Bay.
Dangers to navigation are removed
by the same means which guarded
London from Zeppelin attacks, sec

most interesting developments in rad

ed their attacks upon, London, the
foremost of the allied experts applied
their efford to provide some means
of defense. The prime necessity for
defense was determination of the lOca-
tion of invading Zeppelins.
Discovery of radio direction find
er resulted from their efforts. Yep
pelins used wireless in reporting de-
parture from German bases, and
frequently while enroute sent wireless
messages back to the base. The al

Direction finders established at diff
ferent points upon hearing a Zeppelin
wireless would report to the head
quarters the direction from each sta
tiOn of the Zeppelin. Charting these
directions the headquarters accurate
ly determined the location of the Yep
pelin and it could be engaged in COM
bat before it crossed the British bOrd-
ers.
Success of the direction finders re-
suited in extension of their use to
aid shipping. Radio-compass stations
established on the Atlantic seabord
provide highly efficient service, and
establishment of stations around San
Francisco bay followed Other allied
countries are also using the system.
This means of informing a vessel
of its precise location is regarded as
one of the most valued aids to nav

Tentative plans contemplate estab-
lishment of six radio-compass stations

TIDAL WAVE STOPS
DIVING FOR PEARLS
HUGE WALL OF WATER SWEPT
OVER ENTIRE ATOLL, WRECK
ING MANY HOUSES

PAPEETE, Tahiti, (By A. PAN
nual pearl diving at Hikuero, Paum-
otu coral atolls, has been temporar-
lily discontinued due to a disastrous
tidal wave and typhoon which recently
syept over greater part of the arch
ipelago, according to information
brought here by one of the island trad
! ing Schooners. ,
The tidal wave swept over the en-
tire atoll of Hikuero, according to the
report, wrecking houses and in many
cases sweeping them into the lagoon
Serious damage was also done to the
water tanks, from which the inhab-
itants Of Hikuero depend almost en-
tirely for their water supply The
loss of number of the tanks forced
a majority of the people to depend
upon cocanuts and a few poor wells
for the water. A supply boat has
left Papeete, and by this time should
be at the island
Due to the people of Hikuero TAX
ing refuge on platforms, built near
the tops of cocoanut palms, as ref
uge during the tidal waves, no lives
were lost. Tidal waves are common
occurrences in these islands, but they
seldom cause as much damage as this
recent one.
Several Papeete trading companies
claim to have lost trading schooners
during the five days of typhoon They
base their statements on the fact that
the boats should have returned to
Papeete some days ago, but no word
has been received from them. Many
boats are lost each year in Ehe Paum-
Otu. In fact the islands are known
as the dangerous archipelago due to
this. Local captains claim that the
currents and wind are constantly
and that it is very diff
ficult to navigate.
Pearl diving had been very success
full up to the time of the disaster
One Of the most prosperous years in
the history of the island was expected.
When the natives will be able to re-
new their work is, at present, un-
known. A great many of their can
noes have been broken, or washed to
sea, and practically all the trade goods
On the island were destroyed. Without
an incentive in way of merchandise
for which to trade their shell or gems,
he Paumotuans will not dive. 1t is
hoped. however, that before the seas
)n set for diving by the French gov
srnor has expired that work will be
'enewed.

The Hume stunt was. originated
by and named in honor of Dean Ed
ward M. Hume, who is exceptionally
popular with students and takes a
keen interest in their activities. 1t
has been of great popularity at the
college since it was introduced owing
to the fact that it provides all the
"roughness" and physical encounter
necessary to make class contest a
good one and yet makes impossible
any danger of injury.
Although the Hulme fight is the
events, all between freshmen and
sophomores, will be held to make up
an interesting program of an hour
and half or more.
A tug-of-war following this event
will see losers dragged through the
stream from fire hose playing over
the center line. Good wrestling events
in all divisions between embryo un-
derclassmen mat experts is being
framed by A. P. Priest, student man
ager of athletics. This will be fol-
lowed by the "pick-a-back" race
which furnishes all the thrills and

HOME COMING DAY
FOR IDAHO ALUMNI
DAY OF GAME WITH WASHING
TON STATE COLLEGE TO BE
MADE MEMORABLE.

October Is, date of the annual foot
ball classic between the University
of Idaho and Washington State col
/ lege, has been set as homecoming
day of Idaho alumni and former stu,
dents. Particular interest and signi-
ficance is being attached to this con-
test because of the fact that it will
give Coach Thomas Kelley his first
opportunity to display his gridiron
wares
eve do not expect Coach Kelley
to accomplish the miraculous in his
first year on the campus" said one
Moscow alumnus of the university
this afternoon, because we know
that his present material is by no
means exceptional. We do think,
however, that the improvement over
performances of past seasons will
prove so substantial as to be very
encouraging.
Practices of the last several days
have been featured by the merry en-
broglio between Ralph 'Bunt" Bre-
shears, varsity captain in 1919, and
his younger brother Howard for the
regular job at quarterback. "Bunt"
has an edge in the matter of collie
giate football experience, but Howard
is decidedly the faster of the two.
Each has directed the varsity capably
both in scrimmage and in signal drill
J. A. "Babe" Brown of Boise, the
Marin Plestino of the Idaho campus
and Arnold, another member of the
Breshears tribe, are the more promis-
ing of the several candidates for the
position of fullback Brown, who is
built close to the ground, hits the
line hard and handles the ball we'll
Breshears is probably his superior
at running interference and skirting
the ends. Neither is likely to win
his job definitely until late in the
season.
Coach Kelley has been devoting
attention to the develop
ment of a punter Neil Irving of Ru-
pert, veteran halfback and Leroy
Thompson of Moscow, a rangy can
lidate for one of the guard positions,
are considered good possibilities.
Each gets his kicks off quickly and (
each has been attaining quite sub !
,tantial distance.
The tackling dummy continues to
,e abused consistently. Every man +
N the squad has been required to
rash into the padded swinging fig i
ire a definite number of times each I

Commoner Is Directing Drive for
Bone Dry Universe-State
Department Helps.

William Jennings Bryan has in
augurated a worldwide survey for
the dry" forces, II developed today,
and has successfully enlisted the ma
chinery of the state Department In
a concerted drive to mass facts and
figures OF conditions In wet" coun-
tries. preparatory to planned cam
paigns TO make the whole world arid
as the well-known Sahara.
The full strength of the govern
ment's diplomatic forces have been
placed at Mr.. Bryan's disposal 10
prosecute the canvass, which will not
be complete for many months
Make Minute study.
High plenipotentiaries and consuls
general have been instructed to make
minute studies OF prohibition and
temperance conditions along many
varied lines. These reports are to be
assembled and forwarded to Wash
ington with all possible expedition,
the order recites.
State Department officials. beyond
admitting that Mr.. Bryan on his
latest visit to washington, had re-
quested Secretary OF State Lansing
to cooperate in the ascertainment or
certain facts bearing upon liquor ex-
port arrangements, were loath to go
into the subject.
Returns Coming In.
Already diplomats are beginning to
make their returns under the dry"
survey. The earliest reports have
come from South American capitals. :
These reports are elaborate re-
views of wet. conditions in some of
the gay capitals to the south. They
contain reviews at great length OF
the prohibition trend. and of the prob
abilities that the "drys" may hope
for on their contemplated drive to
dry up that part of the globe.
In connection with Mr.. Bryan's
latest exploit 1t developed that Mr..
Bryan. in conference with leading
dry" leaders here at a recent jol-
lfication over the national amend
ment- becoming effective, initiated
plans to throw the bulk of the dry"
campaign fund into South America,
and to follow this up by spirited
drive in other parts Of the world.
Mr.. Bryan Is in constant touch
with the State Department in the can
vass now being made. AS soon as
cabled or mail reports are received
they are quickly deciphered, copied
and sent to Mr.. Bryan wherever he
may be on his speaking tours.
