blue and gold and the glittering veil
ing thus formed is particularly beau
tiful over the pale blue satin.
a dainty neglige is of pastel blue
brocaded silk with long angel sleeves
of self-colored georgette. The upper
edge of the silk brocade is cut
straight across like the bodice of an
evening gown, and it is supported by
double shoulder straps made of mar
row sequin banding, to which the
flowing sleeves are attached. Long
sequin tassels dangle from each of
these to correspond with the shoulder
straps.
An afternoon dress uses a combina-
ton of black satin and coffee-colored
crepe de chine, which is very sue
cessful in effect. The satin bodice has
short kimono sleeves, lined with pale
pink satin with changeable saffron
lights. A corner of the lining is turn
ed up and appliqued to the outside of
each sleeve in place of a cuff. The
slightly rounded neck has a dainty
collar of white net, cut in irregular
scallops at the outer edge. The bodice
is open at the front. but the top
part laces together with a black silk
cord. Below this the edges are folded
back to show the pale pink change
able lining.
The wide tunic skirt is a continual
ton of the bodice. it's edges also
folding back to expose the contrasting
silk On each side of the opening are
large satin appliqued rosettes, with
trailing stems and leaves which climb
upward almost to the waist line. This
is defined by narrow satin girdle
lined with pink which is twisted
around so that both sides are seen,
and a bouquet of small, brightly
tinted flowers is placed at the front
of it. The foundation, which is visi-

GRID RULES TO STAND,
DR.. LAMBETH BELIEVES

There will be no radical change in
tie present foot ball rules for next
season, in the opinion 70 DR.. William
A. Lambeth, n member of the national
rules committee and who guides the
athletic policy of the University Of
Virginia
DR. Lambeth said in all probability
there would be an attempt to further
restrict the forward pass by permit
ting it's use only on the first down
and by not allowing any running with
the ball after the catch. Abolition
of the goal after touchdown also will
be advocated.
He is opposed to these changes and
does not believe that they will meet
with the approval OF the rules COM
mittee.
DR.. Lambeth will make an effort to
change the present rules in regard to
safeties and touchbacks. 1t is his
contention that the spectators never
are able to tell which has been
scored. He would make a distinction
by bringing the ball out of the 40
yard line following a safety.

Mary Louise's Learning"

eleven in all. The ranch was a collec-
ton of sun-baked sod huts AS the
family had increased additions had been

struggled across the purple sagebrush

She Sends for the Doctor.
One sultry August when the creek was

Louise, putting away her books and ty-

rope so that he should not wander away,
sent for the doctor. who lived in the
little town on the edge of the bench

The doctor made a list of treatments
and left medicines with written direc-

send a nurse as soon as he could. He
was glad in his heart because Mary
ouise had read so much and could
understand without asking unnecessary
questions.

Ice Traps Flying Boat in Bay;
Z Aboard Marooned for Hours

The flying boat Ponce de Leon, which
was to have started yesterday for
Florida, lay helpless last night in
Raritan Bay, at Keyport, N. j., frozen
fast in ice.
The steamer Hartford, bound for
New York, was in a similar plight in
the Connecticut River at South Glas-
tonbury. Indications were last night
that she might not be released until
spring.
Passengers on the ice-locked steamer
walked ashore without difficulty, but
the seven men inside the fourteen
passenger cabin of the flying boat were
not rescued until after they had suf-
fercd for hours from hunger and ex-
pcsurc.
The 104-foot flying boat was wedged
all day yesterday in the frozen waters
500 yards from shore, coated and
shcathed with ice from tip to tip, with
eighteen inches of icicles protruding
from her nose. One wing, badly dam
aged was tilted in npologetic fashion.
All day yesterday and up until late
hour last night efforts were being
made to save her from destruction.
On Monday morning the plane was
taken up for test flight and came
down just before noon. 1t was driven
by c. j. Zimmerman, with r. Sanborn
MS relief pilot. Adjustments were made
until O'Clock. 1t was then found
that the wind had freshened and had
New-York tribune., 1921-01-26

blown quantities of broken ice between
the boat and the shore. The plane
was held firmly and her pilot could not
bulge her.
A motor boat was rushed to the res
cue. One hundred yards from the
plane it broke rudder and the crew
with great difficulty fought their way
back to shore. The velocity of the
wind increased and swept the flying
boatswith a fine spray, and it soon be-
came ice-coatcd. The motor boat again
went to the rescue, but before reach
lng the plane the motor went dead.
When it got to working. some time
later it was decided to take the boat
back to shore without proceeding furth-
cr toward the helpless plane.
At l a. m. yesterday morning a third
attempt was made to rescue the seven
men, and then at a. m. the motor
boat started out on its fourth trip.
This time it succeeded in reaching the
plane, and piled the seven aboard The
revenue cutter Guide worked without
success for hours yesterday to set the
Ponce de Leon free
The steamer Hartford, at the time
it became ice-locked, had five passen-
gers. aboard. The vessel left Hartford
for New York Monday afternoon, but
was unable to proceed further than
South Glastonbury. She has on board
freight for South America, which was
to be loaded into vessel leaving for
South American port to-day.

Loan of Stokes
Alleged Blackmailer Writes
Hotel Owner He'll Call at
His Office After Failure

He Does and Meets Police
Signed Notes, Our Reformed
Burglars and Decorat-
ed Them With Bombs

Miles Gustaf Rehnstrom, seventeen
year old, who came here several years
ago from his native Sweden, found
himself dead broke the other day. In
restaurant, he says, he overheard two
men-themselves dead broke-quietly
confiding to each other that money
could sometimes be had by writing let
ters to somebody and demanding it,
Rehnstrom thought he'd try his luck
He picked w. E. D. Stokes, hotel
owner and railway official as his VIC
tim, having heard that Mr.. Stokes was
worth million or thereabouts. In
clumsy fashion he sketched bomb
with lighted fuse on the top of a
dirty sheet Of paper, scrawled several
lines across and signed it "Our Re-
formed Burglars" In this message he
suggested that Mr.. Stokes meet him in
"back of the big monument in Central
Park at Fifty-ninth Street" Monday,
January "a, and bring along ten $50
bills. "unless you do" he wrote,
something will happen to your Office
and your home"
Mr.. Stokes didn't follow directions.
Yesterday morning he received Sec
ond letter, written in the same scrawl,
couched in practically the same Ian
guage and bearing the same sinister
design at the top of the sheet. The
writer assured Mr.. Stokes that he
and told him that he needn't bother
about coming around to that monu-
ment, because he was going to call in
person at the Office of the railway off,
cial, at 262 West Seventysecond Street,
at o'clock that evening.
Mr.. Stokes took his letters to the
West sixty eighth Street station,
showed them to Detectives Leonard
and Golding, and at p. m. Detectives
Leonard and Golding were concealed in
Mr.. Stokes's office. And exactly on the
stroke of Miles Gustaf Rehnstrom,
blue-eyed and seventeen, put in his ap-
pearance.
He was sorry to have to put Mr..
Stokes out, but he really needed the
money, and if the hotel owner would
be a good fellow and come through with
that loan he would see that no harm
came to him or to his home or his
office. Mr.. Stokes pressed a marked
$40 bill into the hands of his caller
and apologized for not having more.
Detectives Leonard and Golding then
stepped out and took both Rehnstrom
and the $40 bill in hand. The boy
was locked up at Police Headquarters
charged with extortion.
