Honor from President Coolidge at a
ceremony to be held at the White
House proba@sy tomorrow noon.
Lieut.. Schilt was awarded the high
est decoration of this Government for
successfully accomplishing what was re-
garded at the outset as an impossible
task. Hemmed in at all sides by the
Sandino forces, little band of Ma
rines had lost 18 wounded, nine Of
whom we're in a serious condition.
The only available landing place was
the main street, about 10 feet wide and
300 feet long, with a hill at one end
and trees and a big ditch at the other.
Lieut.. Schilt, using all the flying skill
at his command, virtually fell into the
field" bounced, careened and all but
"cracked-up" He placed an officer in
the rear cockpit. and while two Ma
rines held the wings opened the engine
wide.
On a signal from him they let go
and he shot up out of the main street
like a helicopter Nine times more he
went back into the town and nine times
more he skillfully flew out, all the while
subject to deadly fire from the sur
rounding Sandinists. The less seriously
wounded were taken out two at time
by crowding the rear cockpit.
On eacn trip Lieut.. oCnllC ran tIle
great risk of a serious crash He paid
great tribute to the plane and Wasp
engine, which held up under the terrible
strain. After few minor repairs the
plane was in service the following day
Following the presentation of the
Medal of Honor, Lieut.. Schilt will go to
Olney, H.. and visit. his mother for
week or two and then, under present
plans. will return to Washington and
make preparations for flying Fokker
three -engined transport back to

As part OF the governors cam
paign parapheFnalia. the brown
derby has become an essential part
OF his every appearance and cries
from outraged spectators II every
stopping place greet the candidate II
he appears without the headgear
that has been SO long associated
with him. Since the early days, -
years ago. when he first arrived In
Albany as a debonair young legis-
lator.
On the first trip the governor pro-
vtded himself with two extra hats,
explaining that 1t was always well
to be prepared. He returned to the
executive mansion In Albany with
only one. the one he waved 1T his
home town weicomers.
He has kept the fact of the num-
her of reserves on this trip as dead
secret, fearful lest some logical I'D :
mirer should demand one as q SOU
venir.
Alfred, Jr.. the governors Oldest
son. who is a member of the travel
ing party, has assumed the role OF
guardian of the brown derby, and
until the Louisville speech had car
ried out his task successfully.
But nlishap Saturday night when
young Al attempted to hand the
derby 10 Bill Roy. the governors
personal bodyguard. over the heads
of the crowd and an unidentified
person intercepted it. has caused
some speculation among members
of the party as to the length OF Ais

And now the boss has 10 wear

serve held out by William F. Ken

Asks Fur Hat
Not 4 stop does the nominee make
that ne does not have at least one
serious request for the hat. AT
Hodgenville. where he visited the
Lincoln memorial, one of the crowd
that awaited his departure ut the
station asked that he be allowed to
rub the smooth brown crown. The
governor seemed = little surprised at
first but passed the hat over. keeping
his eye on 1t every moment it was
out of his hand.
