regardless of the nature of the sub

to the manner of impressing instruc-

Gus of eliminating individual methods
and instituting a standard method of
a student in each particu-
lar maneuver of an airplane in flight.
Under such a system student is

PLANS TO KEEP AVIATOR
IN COURSE, DESPITE FOG
Development Announced by c.
Francis Jenkins, Washington In
ventor, to Safeguard Pilots.

Development of a device to keep an
aviator on his course in spite of fog
or other adverse weather conditions
has been announced by c. Fran
els Jenkins, Washington inventor. He
said the apparatus would make use
of radio waves broadcast from verti-
cal antennae to be placed at 25-mile
intervals along prospective course.
Vertical antennae, he explained, would
send out waves in but one direction
and this would be the course laid out
for the aviator.
The plane would carry a receiving
apparatus to pick up radio waves
thus broadcast, he added. and these
waves would light small bulb on
the instrument board.
Since the waves travel in but one
direction, he said the light would dim
and go out should the aviator stray
from his course.

The bureau further warns that
there has been a tendency of canoeists

HUNTED MAN DIES
AT FEET OF POSSE
Negro, Chased 48 Hours,
Literally Run to Death,
Physician Declares.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
ROCKY MOUNT, n. c., August B.
A man hunt Of IS hours duration,
through woods and swamps covering
two counties, ended shortly after noon
yesterday, when Tom Bradshaw,
negro. pursued since Sunday by a
sheriff's posse and fox hounds on a
charge of having attacked a 12-year-
old white girl of Bailey, fell dead al
most at the feet of his pursuerS at the
edge of Toisnot Swamp, Is miles south
of Nashville.
The pursued man was literally run
to death, DIR. G. Fletcher Reeves,
county health officer, testified at an in
quest here last night. Though hit in
the body by fine birdshot fired by the
pursuers when they caught sight of
HIM, the wounds were not sufficient
to cause death, the physician said.
Tonight's inquest was continued until
DIR. Reeves could make an autopsy.
Chase Began Sunday.
The chase, which began Sunday
when the handcutfed negro broke away
from the officers taking him to Jail for
the alleged crime. drew to a certainty
of capture this morning, when blood
ed fox hounds picked up his trail near
Stanhope.
The negro, wearing only thin, tat
tered workshirt. followed by the dogs,
covered mile after mile through the
heat of the morning.
Once he came within 20 yards of
Sheriff j. II. Griffin, but when he saw
the sheriff he fled from the spot and
headed into the swamp from which he
was soon to emerge to die. A deep
gully separating the fugitive from his
pursuers made immediate capture inn
possible.
Spotted again at noon in a thick
clump of woods some IS miles south
of Nashville Bradshaw stumbled over
a stump and fell face down to the
ground after three shots had been
fired at him by the posse. He was
surrounded Immediately, but e%ami-
nation revealed that he was dead
Wrists Badly Swollen.
Sheriff Griffin, who was within 200
yards of Bradshaw at the time Of his
death, shouted to the posse not to
shoot, and with the exception of the
three shots fired, there was no at
tempt at violence.
The overalls of the negro were
found in the swamp several hundred
yards from where he died. He was
covered at the time of his death only
by ragged workshirt of blue gray.
The bottom of one foot was lacerated.

Changes in the athletic system at

by Dean George III. Chase of the Col.
iege of Arts and Scepces An effort
is being made, hS ~. to make ath.
letcs truly recreatte:N by removing
the more intensive aspects of training.
The extension of the tutorial system
at the university was credited with
the fact that more students are being
graduated with honors than formerly.
Dean Chase explained, due to some
extent to the opportunities presented
to make a closer study of a chosen
field. Such students, he said are
excused from courses otherwise re-
qured. by reason of having spent ad-
ditional time in field deemed par
ticuiarly interesting. A reading
period Immediately following the
Christmas recess has been established,
he declared, as an experiment, dur.
ing which there is no obligation to
attend classes.
The dean said summary of grad
uate theses is now being published
to indicate various fields being Gov
cred in research.
Dean Chase is representing Harvard
at the meeting of the Association of
American Universities.
Prof. Arthur Kennedy of the School
of Electrical Engineering. a delegate
to the International Radiotelegraph
Conference, said that the rs nations
now attending that parley represent,
perhaps. the greatest number ever
gathered together in the international
world.
