planes will participate in daily
events. Parachute jumping and
stunt flying as we'll as the races

never anticipated.
Col Charles Lindbergh's visit to
Montana and Helena is primarily
responsible for the organization of
the movement to bring together
the aviation enthusiasts and flyers
have taken to the plan with enthu-
siasm. 1t is probable that more

blanks and full details and indicat-
ed an intention to take part.
The program provides for four

planes are from the same factory
that produced the famous Spirit I
of st. LOUIS the first plane to
cross the Atlantic ocean from New I
York to Paris.
A. w. Stephenson and associates
from Dillon will enter three Waco (
planes and it is possible that Earl
Vance, Great Falls flyer, will be on
hand with his Stinson-Detrolter
and another Waco. Mr.. Stephen
son will also have parachute
jumper with him.
Swallow planes will be piloted
by Penn Stohr of Plains, flying for

ANOTHER FAINT CLUE
 ABOUT LOST PLIERS
Sea Captain Reports See ing Plane Off Cape Pine
 on May g

St. Johns Newfoundland, May 25 iPl-The Danish schooner Albert. ar irving at Belleoram, reports that an airplane was sighted so miles off Cape Pine on Monday May 5, the day Captains Nungesser and Coli were reported to have been sighted near Harbor Grace on their attempt cd nonstop flight from Paris to New York. The report is being further investigated by the government.
 Cape Pine is few miles south- west of Cape Grace. the southeast rrn tip of Newfoundland. Belleoram is on the Newfoundland coast near St. Pierre.
 The above report is the first definite statement of the sighting of a plane off Newfoundland on the day the French aviators were expected to pass over and at time when, it has been established. no other plane was in the air in that region.
 A woman resident of Otterbury. west of Harbor Grace. heard a loud noise overhead the morning of May 2, between 9:S0 and 10:00 a. m.. and looking up, saw what she took to be two large birds, flying close together. going toward the south. Later she said she believed 1t was really an airplane.

HALEY, AMERICAN, IS
 VICTOR OVER FOLEY
Brilliant New York Golfer Defeats British Star
 on Last Green

Hoylake. Eng, May c5 [Pl-1n as breathless a finish as was ever seen in championship play on this fam ous old golf course. the young American. Edwin H. Haley of New York. rose to fame today by defeat ing Cyril Tolley. former title holder and one of the favorites for the 1927 British amateur championship which the present tournament, will decide. The match went to the last green.
 Starting sensationally with a birdie three Haley had England's great man of golf struggling all the way. but struggling heroically and magnitlcently. winning holes or get ting halves and staving off the vic- tory which seemed certain for the American at the sixteenth.
 Haley struck bad patch of golf after winning the difficult third with 8 fine par four. He lost the fourth, squared the fifth and then dropped three in succession to become two down at the ninth.
 Then, as the homeward journey started over the great sand dunes sllirting the sea, he set himself for the fight which continued until the very last putt. where the big gallery saw him win and heartily applaud ed him for downing their star.
 Beginning with the ninth. all holes were halved with the excep- tion of the thirteenth, fifteenth and eighteenth, all of which went to the American.
 Another likely championship contender also was eliminated when R. II. Jacobs of the Royal and An cient club defeated C. o. Hezlet of the Royal Portrush club, 5 and 4.
 Roger H. Wethered, the noted British star, kept in the running however, by defeating Ernest Has sail. and after being one down at the turn. Wcthered took six holes in succession.
 A. Jamieson, Jr, eliminated F.. C. Hatton and 3, while the young railway workman, William Sutton. of the West Cheshire Artisans de- feated Samuel Robinson, 5 and 2.

LABOR PLANS FIGHT
 AGAINST INJUNCTION
Green Announces Protec. tion Against Its Abuse
 Is His Aim

New York. May o5 P-Legislation to protect labor against the abuse of the writ of injunction" by federal and state courts will be brought in congress and state legislatures by the American Federation of Labor, it's president, William Green, declared in an address today before the Bankers club of New York.
 Declaring that no nation can suc- ceed in industrial competition unless labor like industry and capital is permitted to organize. Green said labor was unable to reconcile itself to recent court decisions upholding injunctions in labor disputes and added that labor could not abide by these decisions and yet live and function.
 Tn such a dilemma what can la Dor organizations do?" he asked. ITO obey these iniunctions means annihilation, death and destruction. To violate them means persecution and punishment. Labor protests against being placed in such a posi- tion.''
 The Labor Federation president asserted that aside from the de- structive effects which injunctions have upon the activities of organ iZed labor they impose great finan- cial burdens because they entail long and costly court proceedings.
 Tt is the purpose of the Amer ican Federation of Labor to seek a remedy for the injunction evil" he said. We shall draft and propose legislation having this subject in view.
 We have long believed that the sherman antitrust law was bar Tier to industrial. economic and ag- ricultural development. It has not prevented the growth and expansion of big business but in addition to hampering labor it has served to re- strict and circumscribe legitimate business and legitimate business en- terprises. It has served 10 create un- certainty and a feeling Of insecurity among business men as well as among trade unionists."

BURIED IN RUINS OF HOUSE, UNHUR7 Brook St. Dwelling Topples But
 Naples Escapes STRUCTURE IS CONDEMNED Rain Washes Away Weak Founda- ton Causing Floor To Drop-Rc- mainder of Building Razed Today on Ruthcrford's Orders.
STRUCTURE IS CONDEMNED

Patrick Naples of lcO Beaver street was hurled % feet amid fly ing bricks and mortar when the construction at IA Brook street. collapsed yesterday afternoon while he was bracing the building at the second floor. He escaped without injury.
 The collapse came when the foundation sank in soft earth. part of which is believed to be quick sand. The second floor dropped with an ominous creaking and the brick wall pulled away. 4 huge hole broke through the wall under Ma pies weight and he was hurled out ward. falling to the ground with bricks landing all about him and with heavy pieces Of lumber. loosed by the break. whizzing by his head.
 Puts Foot Through Wall
 Neighbors communicated at once with Building Inspector Arthur N. Rutherford and he was at the scene of the collapse within few min- utes. An examination of the prem ises convinced him it was unsafe to allow further work and he ordered out of the building. Police head quarters was notified and a police man detailed to protect bypassers from further breaks. To determine the safety of the foundation. Ruth erford placed foot against the bricking near the base of the build ing with the result that another hole appeared in the wall where upon investigation at close quarters ceased at once.
 Rutherford's theory is that the heavy rains of the past few weeks washed away the new mortar. The foundation work was not of the very best, the inspector also learned.
 Must Start All Over.
 After a conference with Naples this morning, Rutherford gave per mission for removal of the remain ing wall. This was accomplished by attaching ropes about the building and tuggng with heavy rope. A permit to shore the house had been sought earlier in the day but the inspector would agree to nothing but a new start.
 Two other houses in the neigh borhood being erected by Naples were subjected to examination but were found to be safe.

 He opened his address by stating that. regardless of just what their belief was, the restrictions imposed and the control of the individual fostcred by tho early Puritans helped the United States to become the greatest nation in the world.

 Here he divergcd for a moment to say the extension of the power of local option beyond a certain point is dangerous tendency and one that should be watched. He said there are many communities where compulsory education would be voted out if it became matter of local option.
