98-FOOT SPEEJACKS ENDS
ADVENTUROUS WORLD CRUISE

the Mediterranean, the party passed
the Suez canal and chugged into
Cairo and Alexandria.
Next visited were Athens, Naples,
Rome, Genoa, Monte Carlo, Nice
Marseilles, Barcelona and Gibralta.
Then came the trip along the coast
of Africa to the Canary islands and
to Cape Verde, and finally to San
JUAN Porto Rico and down and
across to Miami.
Three times the Speejacks was re-
ported lost but each time turned
out to be only delayed by storms.
eff we had taken the advice of
tried mariners, we would never
have got round" said Mr.. Gowan.
"God must have been right behind
us all the way. Again and again
we We're told to wait because we
were striking places in the hurri-
cane season. But I always went
straight on and we always hap
pened-just happened-to skip
away to safety just in time"
At various points on the trip, the
Speejacks lost members of her crew,
who becoming even more adven'
turous, struck out to see certain
parts of the world by themselves. In
stead of the seven Americans she
shipped with, the little craft is bring
ing back two Americans, one Chi
nese, a Frenchman. a Russian, a
Scotchman and one without a coun-
try"
Radio Enjoyed All Way
All through the journey Mr..
Gowan kept in touch with America
by means of radio, once picking up
message six thousand miles away
and always hearing the large broad
casting stations.
Seventy-three thousand gallons Of
gasoline were consumed during the
trip, and 100000 feet Of ttlm were
taken.
The most interesting incident of
the whole trip. Mr.. Gowan said, was
seasick wedding aboard near Ia
hiti. An American at Tahiti asked
Mr.. Gowan to do him a favor, which
| turned out to be marriage outside
the three-mile limit. because it was
necessary to live a year on the is
land before being granted a license
there.
1.-THE groom asked when the sea
was calmest. I told him between 5
and in the morning. The ceremo-
ny was arranged for 6 o'clock. A
crowd accompanied the prospective
bride and groom, and we sailed away
to the three-mile mark. Before we
had reached it, the happy party had
| become so seasiCk that the captain
had to rush through the ceremony
without waiting for answers or the
ring to be placed on the brides fin
ger. When we returned it took an
hour and half to get them off the
boat"
One of the first to greet Mr..
Gowan when he stepped off the Spec
jacks here was e. r. Thomas, the
man who sent the first automobile
around the world.
Mr.. Gowan said that data, film,
and other facts obtained on the trip
would be turned over to scientific
institutions.

American Legion Notes

Hey, Buddie, Got your kit bag
packed?"
This-is the question that eX-seryice
men all over Idaho are asking of
one another this week.

Idaho Department is turning his eyes
toward Nampa, where the opening

the city.
Advance reports received at state
headquarters in Boise indicate that
the roundup of eX-doughboys,
gyrenes, and gobs will be the biggest
assemblage of World War veterans
that has yet been held in Idaho.
The call of old army friendships
is so strong in the average soldier
that it just can't be resisted. when
soldiers reunion is in prospect.
Hence, Legion officers say, every Le-
gionaire in Idaho who can possibly
do so will be in Nampa for the 9th,
2Sth, and 29th of July.
And Nampa realizes the challenge
to it's reputation for hospitality in
entertaining the host of ex-service
men who are expected. Committees
have been busy for weeks lining up a
round of entertainments that will
keep the delegates and visitors on the
go most of their spare time.
