New Fall and
Winter Styles

We get NEW styles but can
not get new WORDS to de-
scribe them and the old over
worked words have lost their
pristine vigor.
Our new suits for young men
this Fall deserve high quality
adjectives, but we will simply
say the suits are GOOD. (If
there were better suits you'd
see en- here.
In cloth and make superior to
what you've seen in recent
years; in patterns and colors,
richer effects; in models unus-
ual variety.

ONLY AMERICAN SURVIVOR
TELLS OF TRAGIC MISHAp

Hpwden. August Norman
Walker. sole American survivor of the
wrecked airship ZR-2 today gave The
Associated Press the first circumstan-
tial account Of the disaster which late
yesterday destroyed the great super
dirfgible and every American member
Of the crew on board except himself.
Walker was seen at the Howden air.
droue. near Hull. where he has just
been brought after the terrible ex-
perience through which he passed un-
scathed. He comes from Commerce,
Texas, and was a rigger on the ill
farrd airship. He is of boyish appear
ancc. 20 years OF age, and Of a wiry
build.
I'VE were all in the highest spirits
when we left Howden on the trial
flight" he said. We sailed over the
North Sea first and then started down
the north coast to Pulham.
"A thick fog developed so II was
found impossible 20 land at Pulham.
IN fact, the fog was so dense we were
more or less lost, although we knew
the general locality.
We were flying at height of
about $500 feet. with the wireless
keeping in touch with both Howden
and Pulham. The ship was behaving
finely and there was not sign OF
weakness anywhere.
We drove out over the sea again
and as the fog continued bad we flew
along the coast until Wednesday af-
ternoon when we sighted land at Hull.
We then flew across TO Howden where
it was decided to land at $50 p. m.
SO we sailed over Hull again. We en-
circled Hull twice. and the speed trial
was completed without a hitch.
a test of the ships control then
began. 1 was at the lower rudder, pro-
ceeding back to the tail. and had just
reached the cockpit when there was
tremendous crash. The girders amid
ships broke and the ship split in
halves.
Both the tail and the nose i'm
mediately pointed downward and the
halves started TO descend toward the
Humber.
Il certainly cannot escribe my SEN
sations. but 1 thought my time had
come"

SHIP BUCkLED AND BROKE
BEFORE THE EXPLOSION

Howden. Aug. 25.-The cause Of the
disaster TO the ZR-2. according to best
information obtainable here, the base
OF the destroyed dirigibie. was the
breaking of a longitudinal girder
amidship, made of an aluminium alloy,
cutting the airship in halves.
An explosion of either hydrogen or
petrol occurred Immediately after the
girder gave way. and flames burst
through the structure. but the ex-
plosion, il is declared. was not the
cause of the breaking up OF the air
ship.
The break occurred in the part of
the airship where a girder was strain
ed when she was first brought to
Howden. The girder had been rein
forced, however. and the ship found
to be perfectly airworthy, it is said.
None of the authorities here would
venture any opinion regarding the
cause of the break.
