w DR.. Joel T. Boone, personal
physician to President Calvin
Coolidge and now the President

problem with his new charge is
getting something to replace the
famous electric horse used by the
last chief executive.
President Hoover has no favor
tie form of exercise. He does not
play golf, does not ride horseback
and is not a devotee Of walking.
He fishes, but that is out Of the
question as a daily matter.
II am open to suggestions"
Boone said.
He must find some exercise that
the President will enjoy, and pre-
scribe it regularly.
Boone explained the President
is in fine physical shape, and is
man of tremendous energy.
HE has a wonderful physique,
is a powerfully built man, and
has huge muscles on his back and
shoulders" the White House ply
Sician said.
The President takes setting up
exercises in the mornings, as he
has done for years.
Boone will attend the Presi-
dent daily, visiting him at s
o'clock in the morning for a re-
port on his general health. A
presidents health is very care

idge used has left the White
House. He took it away with him.
He also took away the electric

NOGALES, Ariz., March g..
Rebel forces in the latest of
Mexican revolutions are plan
ming to strike at the very heart
of the republic, according to an
announcement today from Gen.
Francisco Borquez, commander
of the Nogales garrison.
He declared that rebel troops
will be concentrated in states
surrounding Mexico City and in
dicated that they would seek to
take the national capital.
Governor Fausto Topete OF
Sonora, Mex, declared that from
the north, troops under Generals
Iturbe and Topete are driving on
Mazatlan. They expect to meet
some opposition from federals at
that point. Then they will advance
on to Guadalajara and thence into
Mexico City, he said.
Battle Expected Today
Armies of the opposing factions
are expected to clash today in
Nayarit, possibly at Topic, capital
of thate state A report from
Guadalajara said 10000 federal
soldiers are massed there in prepara-
ton for drive against the rebels to
the north.
Nearly 5000 soldiers had been
concentrated at Nogales, Sonora,
during the last thirty-six hours, and
then a general exodus of troops
started to the south.
The soldiers who left Nogales were
said to be among the finest in the
Mexican army. All were veterans Of
many campaigns, 1t was said.
Killed Across Border
Tie revolution along the nofth-
western border assumed some inter-
national aspects Friday, following
the flight of federal airplane over
the two Nogales and after a declara-
ton that Floyd Thompson, CleYe-
land engineer, had been killed by
rebels.
jim Hathaway, criminal investi-
gator, reported that Thompson had
been killed by three rebels across
the international boundary line.
Thompson's body was found last
Thursday in Nogales, Sonora.
American military authorities
said they believed the airplane had
violated international law. The
plane was dispatched by Governor
Abelardo Rodriguez Of Lower Cali
fornia to drop notes of warning 10
rebel soldiers in Sonora, Mex.
Plane Terrifies Towns
A great deal of confusion was
caused when the plane swooped over
the two towns, many persons On
both sides of the border fearing #
was going to attack. Resident of
both towns fed.
The reyolutionists claim Nayarit,
and Jalisco are controlled
by their forces A bulletin said the
entire state Of Sonora is under COM
troll of Francisco Manzo, commando
er of the army of the northwest.
The bulletin said General Com
zalo Escobar, military chief Of the
revolt, has his outpost near Vane-
gas, close to San Luis Potosi which
Is occupied by federals. It also
claimed that Culiacon, capital OF
had been captured.

obstacles" placed in their way by
jealous Law enforcement agencies,
as well as dangers encountered
from activities of hijackers on the
Washington Baltimore roads.
The suggestion that hijackers
easily might tap the international
pipe line was met by the smiling
diplomat with the proposal that
the international pipe line might
be pohced with military and naval
attaches attached to the embas-
sies.
VXTHAT to do with military
w and naval attaches has al
ways been a problem about en-
bassies," the envoy said.

when he heard arguments on the plea
for the release from custody of former

Wilson was found serving as a pri-
