NORWEGIANS
 START SEARCH
 FOR AMUNDSEN
ADMIRALTY FLYERS WILL START ON PERiLOUS SEARCH
 OF ICE PACK

OSLO, Norway, June (P)-Lieu- tenant Lutzow Holm announced today hat he will be control officer in the search for the Amundsen expedition. With him will be Lieutenants Harold Styhr and Bernt Balchen.
 The Norwegian admiralty shipped skis, tents, sledges, and other SUD- plies on the transport Norten
 Holm is 5 years of age and was flying in California a few months ago. He said he had been ordered to re- connoiter the edge of the ice field without flying over the ice to the Pole. He declared he could see 100 miles on clear day but that it would be difficult to distinguish human be- ings from the air. He said he hoped to locate Amundsen by smoke bombs with which Amundsen was provided. The planes are to be transferred to Amundsen's ships Farm and Ingertre which will resume their regular coal carrying service
 The statement by Capt. Hagerup of the Farm that he opposed the use of planes in the search has engender- ed perturbation. He declared that the planes risk the lives of the ayiators without the likelihood of aiding the lost explorers. Hagerup is reported to object to the use of the Farm in patrolling the ice edge any more as the vessel is built of iron which is less suitable than wood.

pIsclpIln!na story.

At military academy not far from
New York hazing is practically pro-
hibited, but the boys have their own
methods of disciplining one another
on occasions, and sometimes, if the
awful facts have become known to
the authorities, those superior beings
have been known to cover the trans
actions with the charity of wink,
depending on the nature of the ac-
tivities. Last fall one of the new boys
who arrived did not make himself ex-
tremely popular, bur as he was more
foppish than aggressive his career
did not seem to call for any special
disciplinary attentions from his school
mates. He passed his first few months
in the school In comparative peace.
One day, however, his mother came to
visit him, as parents are free to do
at that institution. The railway sta
tionis a mile from the school, and as
the walk is attractive visitors usually
take in Instead of driving to the
academy. The new student and his
mother were no exception. They
walked; but alas for the youth! His
mother had brought with her suit
case, and he let her carry it from the
station to the school. During her visit
no attention was paid to this frightful
violation Of a gentleman's code. but
as soon as she had departed Justice
began to be meted out to the young
man. All the students who had been
in the institution longer than he had
were free to hand out some of this
discipline to him, and it took the form
Of compelling him to carry their suit
cases. Whenever 3 senior or a junior,
or even pale and callow sophomore,
went to the station, Sonny was order

tentative was ducking In the lake. in
