Woolaroc Appears None

HONOLULU, August IL tB-Arthur

ming plane Woolaroc, declared today
that his flight to Honolulu demon
strated unusual opportunities for the
early development of commercial
aviation between Hawaii and the
mainland.
'@rhe army radio beacon is a Won
derful thing, Z, said Goebel, "and in
my opinion it is the most important
feature of aerial navigation We had
absolutely no trouble with it.
"It is quite true we lost it for about
two hours at SundoWn but we know
we were exactly ON our course ana
sure enough we picked it up again and
rode right along on it with signals
coming in beautifully clear"
The Woolaroc appeared today to De
none the worse for it's adventure. !Cs

is spick and span.
Martin Jensen's plane, the Aloha
shows the effects of the trip. The
fuselage and underpart of the wings
are covered with Oil thrown from the
motor while flying,
Field mechanics said Goebel's motor
also was in much better condition
upon arrival than Jensen's, saying the
Woolaroc's motor was hitting perfect
ly on each cylinder, but that Jensen'S
motor was pretty well shot" They
said that Jensen must have driven his
motor .for all it was worth" during
the flight.
Mute evidence that Jensen and his
pilot, Paul Schluter, were on the verge
of disaster and expected to land in the
sea, was found when mechanics clean
ed the airplane. Scrawled on piece
of faded pink paper with a smudgJ
pencil were these words:

HONOLULU, Aug. 18 PD-Supple-
menting the huge mobilization of
naval vessels and army and navy
airplanes in the search for two miss
ing planes of the Dole flight race
from the mainland to Hawaii, James
D. Dole tonight offered a reward of
$4,000 for discovery of the occupants
of either of the lost machines, or
$4,000 for the discovery Of both Of
the crews. ~
The president OF the Hawaiian
Pineapple company, who put up prizes
of $S5,OO0 for the first and second
planes to arrive in the 24O0 miles
race through the air, put the addi-
iional Thousands at the disposal of
those attempting the rescue of the
fou men and one woman whoSs
planes failed to reach land at the
end of the race course.
Somewhere in the 2,4OO miles of
ocean rolling between the California
coast and the hawaiian islands
friends were hoping some praying
that the two land planes would be
found, their courageous personnel
awaiting rescue. The most optimistic
asserted that in fair weather the
planes might float for days, citing

had been taken aboard before the
fliers took flight from Oakland Tues

PITTSBURGH, Penn, Aug. 18, H9
Two convicted murderers, one a no
toriouS gangster and payroll bandit,
shot their way to freedom this after
noon in one of the boldest oashes for
liberty in the history of the Allegn-
eny county jail.
In their wake, as they dashed from
the prison in the downtown section
of Pittsburgh, their guns roaring,
they left two wounded guards and
endangered many pedestrians. They
were aided in their bid for freedom
by a two-gun man who supplied the
convicts with pistols. The three eS-
capped were Paul JawarSki, we'll
known figure in the "Flathead mob
notorious payroll hoIdup gang and
John VaSbinder, convicted Of hav-
ing murdered man when his re-
quest for quarter was refused. Both
were awaiting execution in the cleo
trio chair.
Early in the afternoon an unidenti-
fled visitor called on Jawarski AS
they talked, separated by an iron
grill, Vasbinder stood nearby. Sud-
denly the visitor, two-gun man,
drew pistols and covered the prison
office force and guards.
He tossed guns to Vasbinder and
Jawarski the latter Immediately open
ed fire, wounding John Hanlon and
Harry BIGGER, guards. Each was shot
in the arm.
Then began a sensational dash for
the main door leading to Ross street,
facing the Allegheny courthouse.
Their guns barked as they advanced
to the last barrier
Coming to the main gate they met
woman visitor She was brushed
aside and as the convicts' guns
roared in the direction of the door
guard, the woman tainted. Other
guards attracted by the shooting
rushed for the gate. BY the time
they arrived JawarsH had opened the
iron barred door with keys taken from
bookkeeper and was outside. AS they
reached the street their co-conspira-
tor, gun in each hand, continued
firing to cover the retreat.
The shooting continued until the
convicts and their companion round
ed corner, boarded the automobile
and disappeared.

wanted in Detroit for the Staying OF

the Atlantic ocean and back. Or
it would send all the automobiles
in the country from Chicago to
New York and return.
"This energy, suddenly released,
drives from the stars the encircl-
ing gaseous shells which reach the
planets in the wake of shriveling
heat. The stars are not destroyed
by expansions. The nucleus re-
mains and in time acquires an
other gaseous SHE'LL" the professor
said.
"The heat from an explosion of
the sun would reach the earth in
about eight minutes and would be
followed by the deadly gases in
1873 hours. Should the explosion be
1000 times the suns present size,
the heat would make life on the
earth impossible anywhere but at
the poles, and not long there.
Should the expansion be 10000
times it's size, as was NOVO Acquila
of 1918, destruction of life would
be but a matter of few minutes
over the entire earth, which would
be shriveled up"

CHICAGO, Aug. Is 4PJ-An ex-
plosiOn of the sun, similar to that
which occurred recently on the
star NOca Acquila of 1927, as it
is designated, would bring death
and destruction to the earth,
Professor e. b. Frost of Yerkes
observatory, said today.
The expansion or explosion of
the star, similar in type to the
sun, was announced yesterday by
DIR. Max Wolff of Heidelberg uni
versity and confirmed by photo
graphs taken at Harvard univer-
Sity.
"These actions" Prof. Frost said,
"are believed to be due to sudden
trigger-Iike releases of inter-
atomic energy, due very likely to
the unbelievable heat of the suns
interiors. Temperatures inside
the stars vary from 5OO,OOO,OOO to
100, ,OOO,OO degrees, fahrenheit"

atoms, and what could be accom-
plished if it could be released and
utilized, the professor said a glass

Walter Guerin next Monday.
AT that time the quintet of the
comedians attorneys and the trio
of Mrs. ChapIin's counsel, headed
by her uncle, Edwin T. McMurray,
are expected to inform the court
that a settlement has been ef-
fected if such an announcement is
not made before that time. Then
the trial will start as scheduled
but it would be on charges far re-

From sources closely connected
with the case it was learned that
Mrs. Chaplin would not receive the

would receive a considerable part
of it and the remainder in pay

LEAD SHELTER
IS BLOWN IN
WITH SUCCESS
First Successful Venture Of
Its Kind in State Is
Launched.

Another milestone in the develop
rnent of Arizona's resources was re-
corded Thursday when the new lead
smelter of the Phelps Dodge corpora
ton was blown in. The mining of
lead ores received great impetus from
the starting of the new plant, an i'm
petuS that will bring Arizona from a
production of 2 per cent of the lead
now produced in the United States
to real factor in the lead world.
The charge in the blast furnace at
the new Smelter was lighted at $3.50
p M, the blast being turned in short
ly afterward, and matte was tapped
within two hours after the fires were
on. The charge consisted of wood,
coke and the more easily smelter ores
and flux, the first regular charge be-
ing introduced to the furnace several
hours afterWard.
The new lead plant is the first lead
smelter in Arizona, although attempt
was made many years ago to operate
a lead smelter at Benson. 1t consists
of modern automatic sampling and
crushing plant with accompanying
bucking room and ample storage bins,
sintering machine, nine hearth roaster,
blast furnace, lead kettles, casting ma
chine, bag house and stack. Every
Improvement in modern smelling prac-
tice has been utilized.
The sampling plant in charge of

HOT SPRINGS, S. D., Aug. 18 Up
President Coolidge came here to visit
the soldiers of American wars at Bat
tie Mountain sanitarium today and
upset the whole schedule of his tour
when he found an old Shriveled war
veteran, who was born near Plymouth,
Vermont.
He was so we'll pleased at running
into some one from his native state
that he changed the carefully laid out
program to spend Is minutes with the
cid man discussing Vermont doings.
The veteran was H. F. Day, father
of Admiral George Day. He is 81
years old and bent but his eyes lighted
up with pleasure as the president call
ed him aside to talk alone with him.
st know your father well, Mr.. Presi-
dent old man Day declared. II Wis
tied him few years ago and had a
fine time with him. I also know your
grandfather
Mr.. Coolidge took off his hat and
extending his hand asked the veteran
where he was born.
Fright rear your birthplace" Mr.,
Day said with show of pride. "It
was at Kingdom Church.
That was all the opportunity for
conversation, as the president was
passing Though the sanitarium on in
spection but when this duty had been
fulfilled, AID he was on his way out
of the sanitarium grounds, Mr.. Cool
.dee disturbed his whole program and
ordered the chauffeur to take him back
to Mr.. Day.
AS the president entered the corri-
dor, where the old man was standing
