PRIZE SPEAKING RULE
CHANGES ANNOUNCED

Changes in the rules governing Sc
lection of entries for the state cham
pionship in public speaking contests,
held in May of each year, have been
announced by the Inter-Scholastic
League. Under the new rule those
cities having one or more high schools
will be permitted 10 enter their con-
testants after qualifying from the
high school contestants, direct in the
contest.
District elimination among those
schools in the district will be held as
heretofore, except that the high
schools will not enter the district elm
ination test. Under the former rules
both high schools and other schools
in a district were compelled to hold
elimination contest to select district
representative to the state contest,
with the result that often the high
schools were eliminated by an entrant
from one of the elementary schools
of the district, which gave the high
schools no representation.
Both Breckenridge and Main Ave-
nue. high schools will have representa-
tives under the new ruling.

Thrilled by remarkable escapes from
death, spectators who saw the con-
Guiding program OF the national air
races are convinced that either the
number IS is lucky or that aviation is
getting safer.
After 10 planes had taken the air
on the thirteenth day of October Cap
tain Early L. Duncan, amazed his fell
low-airmen by making a safe landing
with the left half of his landing gear
gone.
Airmcn on the ground thought it i'm
possible TO land the plane safely, so
ambulances were rushed to the spot
where the crash was expected. Spec
tators waited breathlessly.
LANDS SAFELY.
The gear was ripped away when
the plane, caught in the propeller
wash of a rival racer, sank so low il
struck a telephone pole. Captain Dun
can had as his one passenger, Ser
geant William 3. Morehead, who was
carried in accordance with the rules
of this race. to the extreme rear of the
fuselage. The plane TAXED down and
moved along on one wheel until the
left wing crunched against the ground
and swung the machine into a semi
circle. The plane then halted without
nosing over. Captain Duncan had ac-
complished the impossible; be and his
passenger were uninjured and the
plane only slightly damaged.
ACCIDENT TO CHUTE.
As Private Carl Gunthcr jumped
with double parachute from Lieuten-
ant Walter c. Whites De Haviland at
1000 feet. his breast parachute pack
caught in the control wires of the
plane, failed TO open and left him
suspended in mid-air. He was climb
ing up the parachute rope hand over
hand when a buckle broke and he
dropped 800 feet. The large second
parachute at first failed to function
but he pulled the release cord and the
parachute opened, carrying him safe
ly to the ground.
Two other planes had no trouble
descending when engines were in trou-
Bile.
PLANE CATCHES FIRE.
From Washington came word that
one Of a score Of army planes that
flew from Mitchell Field to Washing
ton caught fire in the air but descend
cd and turned turtle at Boiling Field,
without injurying its occupant, Lieu
tenant +. W. Meredith of Sclfridge

The lieutenant was discharged only
