African Balloon Sails
 OUer the Banquet Table

Africa will be represented in the international balloon race to start at the sloss-Sheffield products plant field this afternoon. That is, it may be represented and Palestine, too. if the contestant who arrived last night dur ing the banquet can qualify before starting time today.
 One hundred and seventy-five of Bir- mingham's distinguished citizens were peacefully eating" their dinner at the banquet around o'clock last night in the Tutwilerl hotel when suddenly a large balloon appeared over the table.
 The balloon was quite unique in every respect and the basket and equipment bordered on the peculiar, their state, in fact, was one which defies description.
 The individuals who disentangled themselves from the equipment and fi- nally stood up, gave their names as Rastus and Rufus, or something simi- lar. Everybody. especially the for eIgn contingent, who have become fla uiliar with camouflage through many encounters during the recent war, sus- pected them of double dealing as the u.ap of Palestine was but poorly con cealed under the thick layer of inky grease paint on the face of one of them.
 Under pressure later in the evening he admitted that his name was Percy Roeenberger and his co-worker, who posed as a bona fide African, was Tom Jones. e.
 They hoped by thus disguising them selves and taking the company by surprise to be able to enter his ball loon in the race.
 Their "blimp'' had many unique points of difference from the equipment of the other contestants, so he was ruled out of the contest on this score by the toast rnaser, J. Frank Rushton. All the same they have not given up the ship the air. ship and may prove their qualifications yet
 They were finally prevailed upon to re- tire and the duly planned programme for the festfvity was taken up. It in- carded solo by Miss Evelyn Going, music by good orchestra, An ad- dress by Allen R. Hawley of the Aero Clubs of America, a song by O. G. Erickson, and address of welcome by

UNIQUE PLAN
State Distributors Given New Plan
 For Sale of Tractors

Launching new plan for ><he sale of tractors in the state of Alabama was the feature of the convention of state distributors of the Hart Par which was .>held here yes terday. This plan, which was recently iraugurated by the company has been with great success in the states where it has been tried.
 The company plans to relieve the present money stringency. insofar as the farmer is concerned, by making a local bank in each dealers town a de- pository for Hart Parr- funds to be used only in financing the sales of their tractors. This plan is said to be l. nic re in the tractor world.
 A banquet was held at the Hotel Tut wiler last night, at which Dr. Frank N. Barnett-and MT. Pate were among the speakers. Aaron Keith, who re- gently came to Birmingham to accept the place of state representative, was among those present.
