SPARROW LOST
 IN INITIAL RACE
Squan UpSets Graft and Aged
 Designer Is Near Death

Marblehead. Mass, July 2S R- The "queerest' craft seen in this harbor in many year was nothing but a shattered water-logged wreck
 today after her maiden race had nearly ended in disaster for her owner and designer, 70 year old Isaac B. Mills.
 The Sparrow, a centerboard 20 rater. with double ends had sides which flared inward to the deck so that her beam at waterline was con- siderably greater than at the rail. Her spars were very light and she had running and standing rigging.
 That was before a heavy thunder squall struck the craft which was trailing a fleet of class R yachts in the first full fledged race it had ever entered.
 The blast caught the Sparrow with unshortened sail, and literally yank- ed the mast out. With it went the rigging and Mr. Mills and two youths who were the crew. The craft cap- sized.
 A launch which the yachting com- mittee had ordered out when the squall appeared imminent threw life preserver to Mills but before the aged man, who was clinging to

HIGHWAY MEN
VISIT VALLEY

Possibility that the border high
way. connecting Brownsville and La
redo, may secure immediate atten-
tion in the matter Of improvement
was voiced here Saturday following
a hurry visit to Brownsville and
other parts Of the border Of r. s.
Sterling, chairman, and W. r. Ely.
member Of the Texas Highway COM
mission.
Sterling Is from Houston, and Ely
from Abilene.
After making a hurried inspection
OF Brownsville and vicinity Satur-
day the party started on up the VAL
ley by automobile and will 20 to La
redo. over the highway which II is
expected their visit may improve.
"All Texas is proud Of the Lower
Rio Grande Valley, and what IL is
accomplishing" was the comment Of
Commissioner Ely upon his arrival
here.
THE Valley should have another
connecting highway through Kennedy
county said Sterling, and express
ed interest in the movement which
has been inaugurated to construct m
highway through Willaey and Ken
dy counties to connect with the Kle-
berg county highway at Riviera.
The two commissioners were much
interested in the military highway
along the Rio Crande. This was
Commissioner Ely's first trip to the
Lower Rio Grande Valley, and he was
enthusiastic over the development
that has been achieved in this Sec
tion. He complimented Cameron
county on the highway program now
under way, and predicted that il
would be followed By an era Of un-
paralleled development throughout
the entire Valley. Mr.. Sterling has
been in the Valley before.
