NO CLUE ON SEA-;
 SEARCH NEAR END
Little Hope Left for Finding of
 Missing Pliers THURSDAY IS LAST DAY
First Prize Winner and Companions to Return Home After Week Of Triumph In Honolulu.

San Francisco, Aug 24 (Fl-A wo- man and four men-seven days lost at sea-one more day of search.
 Hope for the missing Dole race fliers, Miss Mildred poran, John "Auggy" Pedlar, Lieut.. V. R. Knope, Jack Frost and Gordon Scott. who left the Oakland municipal airport for Hawaii week ago today, glim- nered wanly on the seventh day of silence.
 Chances were as faint for the re- covery of Captain William P. Erwin and A. H. Eichwaldt, who flew out Of the airport Friday in search of their missing companions and were believed to have crashed into the sea after sending out a frantic sos. on their radio.
 In the face of discouraging re- ports from the 42 submarines. des- troyers, airplane carriers and their searching ''eyes,' ever flashing the colorless, laconic mil nil-nil" peri odically by radio, came word that l5 additional destroyers and one light cruiser under command of Rear Ad- miral Luke McNamee, were ordered to join the search.
 Pacific Fleet Searching
 Rear Admiral Richard H. Jackson, commander of the Pacific fleet. or dered these boats into action with the idea of scrutinizing uncovered sea area before falling of the zero hour" Thursday.
 Seven destroyers, deployed, across 2 mile front, are continuing the well nigh hopeless search along the great circle steamer lane between San Francisco and Honolulu, land and sea planes dispatched from the the decks of the airplane carrier Langley and the aircraft tender Aroostook are scouting an so mile patch of sea and every effort is be- ing made to trace down recurrent reports iron, land or ocean. The latest of these. a story that a green flare was seen to rise and die down about 5000 feet up the rugged slopes of Mauna kea, in the island of Ha- waii, Sunday night, has thus far fail ed to result in definite word that any of the fliers has been found.
 With the approach Of the zero hour" set for Thursday night by the navy department, when all Its ves- sels shall abandon the hunt, doubt was expressed by mariners and ex- perienced navy f7iers that any of the Dole flight planes could have re- mained af1oat this long. even though favored with week Of mild weather

PROTEST POWER HERS,
 EDNA M|LLAY CLAIMS
Traces Ancestry Back to First Settlers of
 New England

Boston. Aug. 24 LP-six persons, four women and two men, who ap- pealed from convictions of saunter- ing and lettering in connection with their picket line in behalf of Sacco and Eanzetti in front of the state house, were at liberty today pend ing further hearing of their cases.
 Miss Edna St. V. Millay, Miss Katharine Huntington, and Miss Ellen Hayes told the court they be- lieved they had perfect right to protest as they did particularly as each was descended from early settlers in New England. Miss Mil lay said she was born in Rockland, Me, and was a graduate of Vassar. Miss Hayes, a former professor of astronomy and mathematics at Vel lesley, is now engaged in writing.
 The other three who fought the charges against them were John H. Lawton. New York playwright; Mother" Ella Reeves Bloor of San Francisco, and William L. Patterson, president of the American Negro Labor congress. Arthur G. Hays Of the American Civil Liberties union defended them.
 Another demonstrator who was free today was Powers Hapgood, a Harvard graduate. His attorneys, not knowing that he had already been released from the psychopathic hospital where he was sent for ob- servation, yesterday said they would attempt to eXtricate him by court proceedings. Hapgood had been ar rested four times for melting riot and lesser offenses and was facing Q six months sentence from which he had appealed when he was again taken by the police on Monday and sent to the hospital
 He had no comment to make after his release.

PROTECTION PAYMENT
 FOR FIVE BUILDINGS
Investigator Advances Claim Econo- mics Have Been Effected Else where By Communities Setting Aside Fund Annually to Pay For Damage to, Or Destruction of School Houses By Fire.

School Houses By Fire.
 Only five school buildings in this city would be protected by fire in- surance if the recommendation today of School Committeeman William H. Day to a special committee of the school board is passed. He proposes that the insurance money be put into q sinking fund which would be cared for by the school department itself.
 According to Mir. Day, who since the June meeting Of the board. has made an exhaustive study of insur- ance systems in other cities he will bring the matter before the special committee of the board which was appointed to act on the proposition, but if q meeting is not held he will bring his recomm endations directly to the board. He proposes to dis continue insurance on all the school buildings except the academic build ing of the Senior High school plant, the older Of the two buildings in the Central Junior High school unit. the old Burritt school the Smith school and the Bartlett school.
 The other buildings are built Of freproof material and the dangers of fire loss are not so great, he claims. He favors having the rest of the appropriation put into a fund which would take care of its own fire losses in years to come.
 Until this year the Consolidated School district has been paying si2,- i 900 year at the rate of 3T cents per s1,000. This according to MT. Day, is too high a rate of insurance and after a study of several months he brought the matter to the atten- tion Of the school board in June He had figures to show that the rate New Britain should pay was 25 cents per s1.000. The board voted to leave the matter in the hands Of the finance committee acting with MT. Day as a special committee.
 NIr. Day has been working alone on the proposition. No meeting of the committee, of which George w. Traut is chairman, has been called, it is said.
 Mr. Day has communicated with J. L. Sherard or the state legisla- ture of South Carolina and found that that state has g system where by the cities contribute to fund which takes care of their own fire losses. This has been 8 great saving. 1t is claimed.
 If the school board fails to ap- prove the possibilities Of the plan. MT. Day is planning compromise plan by which the school buildingc would be insured on a mutual basis as is the case with l54 school dis tricts in Pennsylvania. He has com municated with several authorities or the matter and will probably have all the necessary data with him before the next meeting Of the board. In this plan the buildings are said to have as much protection at four -ftths of the cost.

Intrepid Woman Plans to Join Captain Leslie Hamilton in
 Flight to Canada Thursday

American Forces in Philippines
 Holds a Air License.
 London, Aug. 24 R-A dispatch to the Evening Star from Bristol says that it has been learned that a princess will go as passenger with Captain Leslie Hamilton and Col onel F. F. Minchin on their project cd transatlantic flight which is now scheduled to start tomorrow.
 This intrepid woman is the Prin- cess Lowenstein- -Wertheim, herself almost a pioneer in aviation, for she made long distance flights before the war; the dispatch said. For near ly 5000 miles she will keep her lookout from a cane chair that has been fitted into the fuselage of the plane.
 Princess Lowenstein, who is sis ter of the Earl of Marlborough, usually dies under her maiden name, Lady Anne Saville. In 1897 she was married to Prince Ludwig Lowen- stein-Wertheim, who, the Evening Star says, was killed in 1899 in the Philippines while fighting against American forces there.
 The princess, who has held a fly ing license for 13 years, has flown with Captain Hamilton a number of times. She was a passenger in his entry in the 1923 kings cup race.
 Two years ago she and Captain Hamilton attempted London to Paris flight. Their plane was not seen after it passed Folkestone. A channel search was begun. After an all night search, craft participat- ing in the hunt found the plane near Fontoise, France. It had been forced down by engine trouble.
 The princess was born in 1866. In 1898 she became German subject, but regained her British nationality in 1915.
 For some time there have been runaors that a woman would accom- pany Hamilton, but her identity was a mystery.

Secretary of State Kellogg to
Give Him Silver Service,
Check; American League Is
to Present distinguished
Service Medal

Washington, Aug. 2.--(H1-Waltcr
Johnson, famous pitcher Of the
Washington Senators, and an idol of
Americas national sport, today COM
pletes his goth year Of major league
baseball.
Before host Of the nations cap
ital fans who were expected at the
Griffith Stadium to full capacity,
the old master, as johnson is known
among major league players, pre-
pared to celebrate the anniversary by
pitching against the Detroit Tigers,
the first opponents Of his career.
Fandom Marks Day
Washington's baseball fandom and
the leading officials of the American
League, too. planned to mark John
sons record with celebration and
tribute such as has been rarely ac-
corded player. Today was John
son Day" at the Griffith Stadium and
the tall veteran mOundsman alone
was to be the recipient Of the fans
plaudits.
Before the game started lengthy
program Of honors for johnson was
arranged.
The ranking member of the cabi-
net, Secretary Of State Kellogg in
the absence of President Coolidge,
was designated to present johnson
with two gifts from Washington's
fandom-a silver service and check.
As the tribute of the American
League, President B. B. Johnson Of
the circuit then was assigned to
award the veteran hurler the first
distinguished service medal of majo
league baseball, a decoration created
for the occasion.
The medal is in the shape Of a
maltese cross, studded with 20 dia-
monds, one for each year Of John
sons service.
Later, u shaft of bronze and marble
in the shape of sun dial, it is
planned, will be erected and inscribed
with Johnson's record just within the
gates of the ball park, the funds for
the monument being raised among
the ctiy's baseball fans.
Is 7S5th Game
The game was to mark the 795th
contest of Johnson's career and II
he wins it will be his 415th victory.
None of the Detroit team who faced
him in his league debut in 1907 re-
mains on the club today, although Ty
Cobb, one of his opposing batsmen 20
years ago. is still in baseball with
the Philadelphia Athletics.
However, johnson expected to see
one familiar face on his first game
on the diamond in Billy Evans, vet
Gran umpire, who, despite a wrenched
knee, planned to handle the indicator
during part of today's game. A
group of fans who saw Johnson s
first game also were to be seated in
places Of honor near the diamond.

rowed and partly gifts, Goodman
"rctircd" as caddy in 1925, at the
age of sixteen. That year he entered
the Omaha city tournament and won
; the title. The next year he was
medalist of the tourney, medalist in
the Nebraska state tourney the same
year and semi-finalist in the trans
Mississippi tournament also.
At the beginning of this season,
shortly before his graduation from
the South Omaha high school, Good
man won the high school champion
ship honors and also was a member
Of the high school championship
golfing team Of Omaha, climaxing his
season with the winning of the
trans Mississippi championship 1t
the BrOadmoor course.
Progresses Rapidly
Goodman has made marked pro-
gress since his first championship in
Omaha two years ago. He stands to-
day as one Of the leading players IN
the middle west. His stcadiness is
the remarkable part of his game, as
his medal play record in the recent
tournament showed. His card varied
only n few strokes throughout the
championship play this year. He
never was above the seventies and on
three occasions was under par.
A feature Of his remarkable win
this year was his battle against the
combination Of an opponent and a
caddy. The bewildering Broadmoor
course on the slopes of Cheyenne
mountain caused great deal Of
trouble to the players. Goodman
was the only player who did not con-
suit his caddy before shooting.
Played Caddy For Self
1t was on the deceptive greens that
most of the contestants marrcd
otherwise enviable cards. Goodman
played caddy for himself in the way
Of advice and achieved double vic
tory, since his play on the greens was
largely responsible for his success.
Goodman's triumph over James
Mainion, St. Louis city champion and
former trans-Mississippi tile holder,
stamped him as link performer Of
first rank and a worthy successor to
Eddie Held, also Of St. Louis, who
was dethroncd early in the champion
ship play.
The. Omaha champion is as bril-
liant with his books as with his golf
sticks. Just before entering the
Broadmoor tournament, Goodman
won a 5000 cash prize for scholastic
excellence in his high school studies.
