WORLDS ALTITUDE
RECORD BEAT AGAIN

Dayton, Sept. 29.-Lieus. John A.
MacReady, test pilot at McCook Field
near here, today broke the worlds al
titude record by rising 40,S00 feet.
MacReady was in the air an hour
and At minutes, most Of which was
consumed in reaching the mark at
which his engine coughed and died
and he glided to earth. At $4,000
feet ice formed on the oxygen tank,
but he suffered none of the hardships
of Major R. C. Schroeder, former
chief test pilot here, whose previous
record of $3.50 feet resulted in his
eyeballs freezing and dilation of the
heart, keeping him in the hospital for
two weeks.
Lieut.. MacReady used the same
La. Pere biplane that Major Schroe-
der used and the flight was made pri-
marily to test improvements on it.

out Today for Fray Tomorrow
Columbia, Sept. 29.-In a inaI
light workout consisting of signal
drill, some work at passing and punt
ing and a final session with the tack
ling dummy, the Carolina football
squad wound up its final week of
preparation, for its first game of the
season here Saturday with Erskine
College, contest that will be start
ed at $3.50 P. NJ. There was a good
deal of snap and pep to the final
days practice and all hands were
reported in good shape. The coaches
made frequent changes in the line up
in order to drill every man thorough
ly in the various plays to be used a.
gainst Erskine, for they hope to be
able to use fully two teams in the
opening battle In that way practic-
ally all Of the new candidates will
have a chance to show their class
early in the season: -! q > = :.
No definite line up has been an
nounced by Carolina but the follow
ing men are those most likely to
play the first game: Brockington,
Meyers and Wheeler, ends; Waite,
Bartelle and Edwards, tackles; Nc
MILAN, Dickert and Chapelle, guards;
Lightsey, Edmunds and Kelly, cen
ters; Holland, Jeffords, Baker and
Green, quarterbacks; Belk
Sizemore, Gressette, 'snipes, Wingard
John Dukes, Turner, Marion Gres-
settle and Pursley, backs. In addi-
tion, other men will be thrown ints
the fray should occasion arise.
Unquestionably the Gamecocks are
striving to prevent Captain Phillips
from crossing their goal-line, and
she interest in the game will center
chiefly on this point. To be sure Car
olina wants to get a goodly margin
If points in their favor but the hot
weather. of the week and the ,newness
# so many of the players will miti-
,ate against team play to such an
extent that the Gamecocks will be
satisfied to win by few scores and
Keep their goal-line uncrossed. ,
Already alumni are pouring in
rom various parts of the state to
watch the final practices and to be
lere when the kickoff takes place
Never before has interest
'een at such high point in Carolina
ootball and the opening day crowd
S bound to smash all records in the l
ntire state. AS an indication of the !!
interest forty automobile loads of
ans are coming from Orangeburg on
morning. The entire foot
all section Of Columbia will be on
and, as they have been at practic-
lily every open practice this season.
'onight mass meeting was held at
ollege and from the "pep" display
