To Begin June 10th
GENE SHANK TO TRY
FOR FLIGHT RECORD

Gene Shank, of Robbinsdale, form
erly of Morgan who has long since
established a record as on the coun-
try's premier aviators, will soon at
tempt to set new worlds record
for sustained fight for a single mo-
ttored plane or for any type of plane.
One Sunday at the Robbinsdae
airport Jean du Rand of Minneapolis
10 year old parachute jumper, made
leap of over 1900 feet and estab-
lished what is claimed to be the
worlds record for women Chute
jumpers.
She was at a height of more than
1900 feet when she leaped from the
speeding plane and began to drop
three and half miles to the earth.
1t took the plane an hour to reach the
altitude from which the jump was
made and it took Miss du Rand more
than Is minutes to reach the earth.
The exact height at which she made
her leap will be ascertained through
inspection of government baro-
graph which was placed on the plane
by representative of the National
Aeronautical association, Shank said.
Miss du Rand made her jump at a
point about five miles east of the
field and landed within three blocks
of it. Though wearing a flying suit,
and army sweater and a woodsman's
| jacket.
Miss du Rand said she was cold
when she landed. She was taken
Immediately to her home.
, Sunday evening Gene Shank left
for Wichita, Kansas, to bring to
Minneapolis a single motored mono
plane which will be used in an attempt
to establish a sustain flight record.
The present record for single mo-
tored ships is 81 hours, established
five years ago, while the record fol
any type is Isl hours, set by the tri-
motored army plane, the Question
Mark" several months ago.
A second ship will be used to re.
fuel the first plane.-Morgan Messen.

"A Year Old Patrolmal' Held for Manslaughter Says virkkula Drove Past Him.

International Falls, Minn.. June II R-While Emmet J. White. 2< year old border patrolman of the customs service is being held in jail following arraignment on . second degree manslaughter charge. county and federal authorities to- day continued efforts to determine if the killing of Henry Virkkula Saturday night was justified.
 Virkkula, a Big Falls confection. CT, was killed by slugs from a saw- d-or shotgun fired by White. Mrs Virkkula, who was riding home with her husband and two children. asleep in the rear seat, escaped in- jury. ',' es
 Backs Agents Action Easing his abatement on report of the affair made by White, N, A. Linderberger, assistant United States customs collector at, Duluth said White was in ,the right when he fired at ,Virkkula when he failed to stop his machine at the com mand of E.. A. Servine, Whites companion. The chief duty of the border patrolmen is to intercept liquor runners.
 In contradiction to Whites re- port, however, was testimony offer ed by Mrs. Virkkula at the inquest yesterday. The hind wheels of the car had barely passed Servine, who carried a sign which reads: "U. 8. Customs. Stop" when slugs swept the car and hsr ahukband slumped dead in her lap. No command to halt was heard. she said. i White was arraigned on the sec- ond degree manslaughter charge immediately after the coroner's jury found that he was responsible for the killing. His request for a lcontinuance for one week was granted.
 According to Whites report. he was about 100 feet behind Servine when the latter got out on the highway and held up his sign. Both men were obliged to jump to avoid being run down and he did not fire until the car had passed them. White said. His intentions were to puncture the tires, thereby bringing the car to halt, he asserted. add ing that the car travelled nearly 70 1 feet after he fired.
 Didn't Think Man Dead Even when he saw the driver, his face covered with blood, slump ed over against his wife. he did not think the. man was dead, White said. Virkkula was taken to an In- ternattonal Falls hospital by White and Servine in the official car. There he was pronounced dead.
