MacCracken Says Five Years
 Will See Big Change

Washington. May 1T (UP)-with- in five years, father, mother and the children will take to airplanes for their recreational trips and eve ming rides, William P. MacCracken. assistant secretary of commerce in charge of commercial aviation. pre- dicted today in an exclusive inter view with United Press.
 Aviation by that time, MacCrack- en believes. will be looked upon by the average citizen as just as safe as the automobile, street car, rail- road train or steamship.
 "I foresee the time" he said. when all Of our airways will be lighted and many father will take his family out for a night ride in the clouds just as he now takes them over the dusty country roads in his automobile.
 From now on we are going to see a marked increase in the will ingness. of people to fly. People will go up not for the thrill but for business. Several large corpora tions have purchased planes for the use of their executives so their time

NEW YORK NOW IS
 LINDbERGh HACKER
Young FiG Has Taken Popular Fancy by Storm

New York, May IT (UP)-With the coming Of the first signs of summer New York. which last year took Gertrude Ederle to its heart. has reached out and drawn to itself . new hero-Charles Lindbergh.
 He is . tall. slender. blushing youth of 25 who sailed into the city in his silver gray monoplane from San Diego, California. some 5000 miles away. announcing he would ny to Paris.
 Commander Richard Byrd Is ad- mired for his skill. his courage and his never-failing efficiency. Bert Acosta. Lloyd Bertaud and Clarence Chamberlin are honored for their accomplishments and their deter imitation.
 But the sheer audacity of Lind bergh. plus his boyish smile, his bashful blushes and his outstanding good looks. has placed him close to where Gertrude Ederle stood when she came back from her tri- umphant channel swim 8 year ago.
 Not Visibly Impressed
 Lindbergh. on the other hand, Is only courteously interested by New York. He came to town today from Curtiss field for the first time since he sailed into the city. Friends said 1t was his first visit to New York.
 He live at the Garden City hotel. at Garden City. near the flying

Tuck" that attaches to . four-leaf clover or . rabbits foot. When he passes through . crowd. according l ly. here and there men and women are seen to press forward and touch his clothing or rub their hands across his back. Not even this irritates the blushing young man from the west. but police in- tervened once yesterday afternoon and quietly made bodyguard around him.
 He has attracted the nappers in a way comparable to Valentino. Letters are coming to him by the scores. They wish him luck. ask for his picture. offer to ride with him give him telephone numbers. pro- test undying affection and give him sage advice.
 When he appears in public girls scramble for . sight of him. But Lindbergh only blushes and smiles. No one has yet seen him with his face or clothing dirty. He al- ways is immaculate and as clea nly shaved as if he had just stepped from . barber's chair. He always wears his flying clothes. but he must have an intending supply. for they always have the appearance of being fresh from the cleaners. What will you do if you get to Paris?" he was asked as he chat ted with newspapermen. Wants to Circle Tower l I'd like to fly once around Eff fel tower before I land just to show them I'm there" he answered l quickly. It was recalled that before he landed at Curtiss field after fly ing from St. Louis. he circled over New York city. Ito show New York I'm here.'
 What's the first thing you'll do when you land?" was another question.
 i've only got about 200 things I want to do first" he said. 50 prob ably I'll go to sleep"

field. Groups and even crowds wait in the lobby for . glimpse of him when he comes from an elevator to go to the flying neld.
 It Is 76 feet from tho elevator to the door. Last night on one trip over that 75 foot path Lindberg was stopped 14 times by utter strangers who wanted to speak to him.
 T want to shake your hand. MT. Lindbergh." Is the usual formula.
 Lindbergh blushes, shakes hands. smiles and bows.
 Are you afraid I think your flight Is terribly daring" Is . para phrase of the usual comment that follows end Lindbergh's invartable answer is
 Sure of Success
 "I haven't the least doubt but what'll I'll mako It."
 He turns. takes . step or two. and is accosted again. He passes from group to group and finally makes tho door and usually does a leap or at least . quickstep for the automobile waiting for him outside. Each group causes him to blush little more and by the time he goes through the door. this man whose daring is SO amazing. is blushing a blazing red.
 At the flying field another crowd, which varies from a couple of hun dred in the early morning to thou sands who were there yesterday afternoon. waits for Lindbergh.
 He spends much of his time in- side the hangar with police hold ing back the crowd.
 When he emerges the crowd ap- plauds by clapping hands, and never by cheering. It acts much as q golf gallery when Bobby Jones makes birdie three.
 Is Regarded as Lucky
 The word has gone among the superstitious that Lindbergh is blessed with the same sort of

may be conserved in moving from one place to another.
 Commercial aviation has just finished the first round and it is go- ing a-humming from now on. We will get better planes, better facili- ties and the entire confidence of the public in the safety of the airplane.' '
 MacCracken also visualized trans oceanic air service but said he was not sure whether heavier-than-a air or lighter-than- carriers would be employed. He Is inclined to the belief that airships instead Of planes will be used in such commerce be- cause they could compete with
New Britain herald., 1927-05-17

steamships and remain in the air if the engines went dead. Floating service stations would be needed if planes were used in air commerce over the ocean, he believes.
 The outlook for commercial avi- ation." he said, 'is exceedingly bright We are handicapped as were the railroads and steamship lines when they started business. They had trouble getting passengers and we are having the same. But they soon convinced the public they were safe and it won't be long be- fore we do the same.
 We are confident that while
New Britain herald., 1927-05-17

there will always be some accidents in connection with air transporta- ton, the airplane today offers a safe means Of travel and will ulti- mately be the safest"
 Commercial aviation in this coun- try, MacCracken said. was founded on the air mail service. There are now r routes. In two years, he be- lieves, many feeder lines will be con- nected with the established routes and the north and south routes will be extended for American commerce with Canada and Latin America.

after all. To get at the explanation
of left-handedness and some of the
phenomena, such as the so-called
mirror" or reversed handwriting,
connected with it, it is necessary to
go back to the earliest day of the
genus homo. In the day of the cave
man neither right nor left hand had
preferred usage and modern eXcava
lions have brought to light just as
many implements fashioned for left
hand use as for right-hand. When
the cave man desired to set down his
thoughts in picture writing, it was
done with either hand.
More than that, the writing was
from right to left quite as often as
it was from left to right And this
survived to a much later day for
form of writing, called "boustrophe-
don," used in early Greek and Latin in
scriptions, often showed every other
line written right to left in mirror
fashion, that is, it would resemble
left-to-right writing if reflected in a
mirror.
The increasing usage of the right
hand in preference to the left came
about as primitive methods of war
fare developed. The left hand and
arm were used to hold the shield
over the heart to guard it from
fatal thrust and the sword or spear
was welded in the right. Since the
nerve fibers which govern the right
arm and right leg (you remember
from the study of physiology in
school, of course, about this "cross-
ing over" in the nervous SYSTEM
are located in the left side of the
brain, that side of the brain, be-
ing more active, became highly de-
veloped and the right side of the
brain, controlling the left side of the
body, accordingly became less highly
developed. So as time went on men
became not only right-handed and
right-legged and right-footed but
right-eyed as well Chat is to say, the
vision in the right eye became keener
than in the left). The skin also be-
came more sensitive on the right side
and the senses of touch, taste and
smell became more acute on that sec
ton.
Along with this greater develop
ment on the right side there began
to grow up certain amount of super
stition. 1t included the old paganistic
Roman custom of putting the right
foot forward at the beginning. From
this custom originated the saying,
which persists to this day, about put
ting your best foot forward" the
best foot being, of course, the right.
This superstition is responsible also
for the fear which many people have
of entering a room with the left foot
forward.
Despite the fact that most people
are right-handed, approximately one
out of ever twenty-five Is a throw
back" to the primitive days when all
were ambidextrous and these four
per cent persist in being left-handed.
lust WHY they are left-handed science
has never yet been able to explain
satisfactorily. One of the curious
evidences of this "thrOwback" Is the
The Ely miner. [volume] (Ely, Minn.) 1895-1986, 1927-11-25


something over which you can be just
a bit proud. Here's one reason: away
back in ancient times a left-handed
man was considered "the darling of
the gods" and he was frequently hon.
ored with high office for no other
reason than that he was one of these
'darlings of the GODS" the evidence
of which being the fact that he was
left-handed. So, although you may
not believe In gods, as did the an
clients, if you have any faith in Lady
Luck, or any of the other members
Of the modern pantheon which we
know by variety of names, all hav-
ing to do with luck or chance, you
might we'll allow yourself to believe
that these modern gods will smile
upon you because you're a south
paw even as the ancient deities did
in the olden days.
And you can tell your friends, too,
that you have illustrious company in
your left-handedness. The Pharaohs
are said to have been left-handed, as
were the greater Caesars-and they
were rather important people in their
times. Alexander the Great, who con-
quered the world, did it with his
good-nOt right but-left arm, for his
tory records that he grasped his
trusty sword with his left hand. Then
there was Charlemagne, the patron
Of scholars, who, when he did any
writing 1T all, grasped his pen in
his left hand. Surely these are no

ship!
But to get down to more modern
times-which would you rather be,
one Of the host of right-hand pitchers
in TIE major leagues or one of that
more exclusive group of diamond
stars, such 'port-wheelers' as Willie
Sherdel of the st. Louis Cardinals,
one of the heroes of the 1926 worlds
series, or Herb Pennock, the hero of
the 1927 championship battle, or Babe
Ruth, who was q left-handed pitcher
before he deserted the slab to become
the "Sultan of Swat? OF course, one
of the earliest of the great south
paws, "Rube" Waddell, is still re-
membered as one of the "queerest"
players in baseball history. But the
fact remains that he was one of the
truly great slab artists of all time,
so it doesn't matter whether he was
queer" because he was left-handed
or left-handed because he was queer"
AS matter of fact a lot of this
belief about the "queerness" of left
handed people Is mere superstition,
