KANSAS SCHOOLS
 STUDY AVIATION
Miniature Planes Made by
 Students

Kansas City. Jan Fl R1The buzzing propellprs of 5000 minia- ture airplanes have introduced a new note into the manual training classes of the Kansas. City grade schools.
 That many boys are learning to make tiny airplanes from bamboo. silk thread. tissue paper. glue, steel wire, and rubber bands, because Robert W. Gees, of the Kansas City Rotary club saw the miniature Air craft fliers perform during the Boys Week Conference in Chicago.
 Gees brought the idea to Kansas City and his club sponsored an afr plane building contest. The school board heard of the work and liked it so much that 1t retained terence Vincent. director of the, Miniature Aircraft Pliers. as an instructor in the Kansas City schools.
 Ninety-nine per cent, of the boys say they want and expect to fly. Vincent says.
 The record flight for an indoor airplane is 16S seconds, and if a beginners airplane flies five sec onds it is considered successful. The total weight of the indoor planes Is about a quarter of an ounce .

ORIGINAL LITIGANTS
 IN LAWSUIT ALL DEAD
But Question of Mass. Cranberry Bog, Pending IA Years, Is
 to Be Settled

Barnstable, Mass, Jan. q R-A lawsuit that has outlived all the litigants. the judge, and the lawyers originally concerned in it and has very nearly outlived the issue in volved, ia to be concluded at the next session of superior court here.
 The question raised by the plain tiff when the suit was brought IA years ago was whether the owner of a certain cranberry bog in Brewster was taking water out of Cages pond to the detriment of the plain tiff's adjoining cranberry bog. Since then the owners of both bogs have died, one of the bogs has fallen into disuse, and the steam engines set up to pump water into them from the pond have crumbled into rust. Judge Raymond A. Hopkins, who was first named as master in the case, died; and so did Albert Rol- lins, Brockton, and H. H. Baker, Hyannis, attorneys for Robert Cliff ford, plaintiff, and Jeremiah Wixon, chief defendant.
 The second attorney for the de- fense, Joseph Walsh, dropped out of the case to go to congress, and the matter rested for six or seven years. The heirs revived 1t in 1925. then a stenographer mislaid his notes and required year to find them. Now Judge Frederick c. Swift, second master in the case, has decided that the defendant did not lower the pond to the detrlment of the other bog owner. The finding will be pre- sented at the next superior court session and the case will be ended.

GOLF PLAYERS ABROAD
 ARE MORE SKILLFUL
At Least This Is the Opinion Put Forth By Jess Swectaer,
 Himself a Champ

New York, Jan. 21 R>-Golf skill in Great Britain scales higher on an average than in this country, despite the notable triumphs scored abroad by, American stars in, recent years, Jess Sweetser believes.
 They have more match players" :" says the first native born American to carry off the British amateur crown. T am not saying they have better ones, but the typical Ameri- can duffer did not appear. Scores at an English or Scotch club would average better. than here in Amer ica. They have longer acquain- tance with the game"
 Sweetser's comments, quoted by the Brooklyn Eagle, dispel other impressions left behind by other conquering American links heroes. Answering the criticism that British players take the game too lightly, Sweetser believes the average Amer ican golfer doesn't take the game any more seriously than does the Briton.'
 Discussing his overseas triumph for the first time, Sweetser attri- butes his success partly to the fact that he was aided by favorable weather.
 'The wind Is a big factor, and l probably wouldn't have done half so we'll If the weather had not been moderate" he says. They are bet ter run-up players than we, princi- pally ecause they have had more practice. I did not have to change mY style much. I hadn't used an exceptionally high pitch shot for years. except when it was warrant ed. When playing into the wind at Muirfeld, I would use a club longer than necessary and hit bit easier That, l learned, keeps the ball down
 "The British can pitch as we'll as we can, but Americans are little more accurate"

SEA LEGS FAIL 0N LAND;
 SAILORS MOURN "B0z0"

When the coast guard cutter Un- alga, in port yesterday, sailed from Seattle for her annual patrol of the Boring seas and Alaskan coast. her complement was without it's famous mascot Bozo.
 A cur, coming from nowhere in particular and boasting of ancestral distinction, Bozo lived to occupy a unique place in Pacific naval tradi- tion-he had served, perhaps, on more vessels Of Uncle Sans fleet than any other mascot.
 Bozo enlisted in his "teens," and as a true sailor, shipped over,' hav- ing trotted the decks of the Pennsyl- vania, Relief, Tennesse, Haida, Sno- homish, Bear, Algonquin and Una lga. He had heard the big guns at target practice in the Caribbean; he saw the great fleet that assembled on that friendly visit in Australian waters; had taken rides in the little jinrikshas of Japan, and had listened to the soft summery purr of Hawaiian beaches He learned early, as Lu all goEs, the position of the galley, and it's favors were his. And when it was rough, he knew the warl spots Lcai the center of the ship, where he could curl up until nj. stomach consented to stay tween decks.
 As mascot of the Upaiga, Bozo had gone into the north seas, where ! saw the doctors and dentists mini j., ter to the Indians of the jar Aleu- charges of Uncle Sam. who see no other humaEs from the Outside; he had stuck IL. nose into the whitening blasts Of the "Taku" wind that blows from the glaciers up Gastineau channel, and his bark, while the cutter glided thru the wat cry canyons of the inside passage had reverberated thru the hills as his play with shipmates furnished welcome respite from the monotony of the patrol.
 While on shore leave recently Bozo's sea legs, which had served him so we'll aboard ship, failed on land, when he tried to escape the wheels of a truck, and taps" were sounded for the Unalga's mascot
 A mongrel, that perhaps ashore would have been relegated to the alleys and dumps, he had found haven where the wag of his tail was a salute that won for him pats on the head from host of friends who wear the blue and need no coat-of- arms fetish to incite their benevol- ence.

By way of celebrating one hundred
years of public service and progress,
he Baltimore and Ohio Railroad is
planning a transportation show that
will exceed in scope and detail any
spectacle of its kind ever placed be-
,ore the public. 1t is called the Fair
If the Iron Horse" Centenary EXhi-
,ition and Pageant of the historic rail-
,oad, to be held at Halethorpe, Balti-
more, Maryland, from September "a
% October s.
The Baltimore and Ohio has the
distinction of being the first railroad
N the United States operated for the
public handling Of passengers and
freight. In all the century of its
.ventful career, it mas changed neither
is corporate name, its charter r. its
fundamental organization.
Completeness in every 4 rice and
associated service known to railroad
ng is the primary goal of the Fair
If the Iron Horse" But along with
his. and INST as interesting. is the
fact that the exhibition will go to
elaborate lengths to present the many
hidden features of re reading, not
only in pictures and print. but in a
huge succession of actual physical OBJ
jects, arranged in an unlnrs .andable
way. so that the fascinating romance
inherent in the story Of =" vin-track
trail may be made striEingly real and
potent to every visitor who comes tc
Baltimore.
Most people take the railroad fol
granted but at this exhibition tbs
fact will be driven home once more
that in the historv of nations the rail
road. opening up new territory, bring
ing in populations, creating centers Of
industry and developing natural re
sources, has proven to be one of thu
largest single factors in the world con
tributing to the welfare and happiness
Of people.
EXHIBITION
The "Fair of the Iron Horse" cal
be conveniently divided into two com
prehensive parts. One is a vast as
sembly of stationary historic display
housed in great buildings on tn
grounds; the other is a mammoth
moving Pageant designed to portra
in colorful and elaborate succession
the chief steps in the unfolding of tn
drama of inland transport in Americs
First, consider the static portion o
the exhibition. Preparations at tn
fair grounds, now nearly completed
give mute evidence of the giganti
solid scale on which this part has bee
planned.
