Amherst to Debate With
Women for First Time

AMHERST, Mass, April 14.-It has
taken the undergraduates of Amherst
College just 101 years to summon up
courage enough to take chance in q
talking contest with a group of girls
of their own age, but they're going to
do it tomorrow night. The girls who
are coming to uphold the feminine rep
utaton of getting in the first word and
the last word will be from Vassar.
1t ill be a decision contest. The
judges will be Leo Wolman and Hor-
ace Kallan, Of the new School for So
cial Research in New York City, and
a third one yet to be announced The
question to be debated will be: Re
solved, That it is in accord with public
interest to abridge the right to strike
and the right to lockout through the
settlement of industrial disputes by
compulsory tribunals.' Vassar has de
cided to stake its reputation on prov
ing the affirmative.

South Pole Discoverer De-
scribes Drop of Machine
OH Flight From N. Y. to
Seattle: Praises His Pilot

Captain RoaId Amundsen discov-
erer of the South Pole, who crashed
down from height of 1000 feet with
five companions in storm driven air
plane during the first stage Of his at
tempted flight from New York to Seat
tie few days ago, told yesterday how
it felt. He gave credit to the pilot Of
the wrecked machine for skillful han
ding in desperate situation,
Captain Amundsen said he was
amazed after the crash to find himself
and companions comparatively unin-
jured, the inclosed tonneau of the air
plane being upside down and the i've
persons within hanging to whatever in
terror fixture came handiest. The ex-
plorer said that when the machine
turned over he and his associates were
ratified about like dice in q box He
added:
when we started the weather
seemed perfect, but we found the air
full of pockets after travelling a short
distance. Half way to Cleveland we
encountered a strong wind. Heading
into this was slow work, and at 2:30
in the afternoon we were still $50
miles from our destination
"There we're indications that the mo-
tor was heating under its load of 1000
pounds of baggage and five passengers.
Then one of the cylinders went dead
and 1t became necessary to volplane in
search of landing. From 1000 feet
we came down to about 1000, and then
the motor suddenly stopped the plane
descending rapidly in narrowing cir
ces.
ut was bad country for landing,
with few spots wide enough. We no
tced a narrow clearing between a for
est and house, and toward this the
pilot directed his machine AS the
motor was out of action it required
clever maneuvering to clear tree tops
and hit the open space. We barely
made it. The plane cut off tree top
and carried it away on one wing
"The storm was tearing in behind US,
and as we struck the ground we
bounded up thirty feet. Ahead was
hill covered with stumps. We cleared
two of these in our wild run and struck
third which turned us over. | shout
ed to Horace GUIDE, my companion, that
we must get clear before the gasoline
caught fire. He managed to open the
tonneau door and we crawled out A
moment later the pilot appeared. He
also was unhurt. Then we learned that
while volplaning the pilot had shut Off
his gas so that we had been in no dam
ger of fire. / think the fact that we
got out safely is due to the machines
metal construction and elasticity. Had
it been Of wood the plane would have
been shattered. We have placed an or
der for a new plane of the same type
to be used in our expedition"

Gerrymandering Denied

Samuel 5. Koenig. president Of the
New York Republican County Com
mittee last night made light of the
criticism coming largely from Tam
many sources concerning the redis.
tricting of four Manhattan Congress
districts by the bill signed by the
Governor
"If the trainers of the bin contain
ing the new districts had been SC
minded they could have cut out one
district, naturally Democratic, below
Fourteenth Street, and created new
district on the upper West Side that
would be naturally Republican. The
law gives base of 228,0O0 of popua-
tion as general guide, but there are
many districts containing many more
people than that, and contrariwise, there
are many that contain less. There is
nothing in the gerrymanderng charge
The bill passed the Legislature unani-
mously, so am informed"

Planes to Hare Radio

WASHINGTON, April ID
One of the transcontinental air
mail planes was placed in shop
here to-day to be equipped with
radio sending and receiving tee-
phones. 1t will be the first of the
machines in the cross-continenta
service to use the wireless tele-
phone, but all are to be similarly
fitted soon. The apparatus will
have radius of two hundred
miles, and will give the pilot con-
stant contact with the station
ahead of him.
Range finders also will be in
stalled to enable the pilot to find
stations in foggy weather.
