after the ground crew had picked
up message from the fliers saying
Everything is going fine"
Preparations for making another
refuelling contact were under way
by the ground crew before the
ship went into a spin.
Crichton was instantly killed and
Haugland was rushed to a hospital.
The plane had been in the air
154 hours, 40 minutes.
The ground crew was unable to
aScr1be any reason for the crash.
Some witnesses believed that the
filters sacrificed too much flying
speed to drop what was their last
message. They we're up only 200
feet when the plane went into a
spin.
Sixth Attempt
It was Haugland's sixth attempt
to set an endurance record. and
Crichton's first. At 1912 a. m. to-
day the Minnesota had passed the
previous mark of 149 hours achieved
by Haugland and Thorwald johnson
last June. On that flight Haugland
and Johnson were forced down by
motor trouble.
Previously, Haugland ard Gene
Shank had attempted four times
TO set an endurance record.
Haugland was taken to TT. Shell
ing hospital. Doctors after a hur-
ried examination said he apparently
had skull fracture and possibly a
fractured jaw. His condition was
critical.
The refueling ship, Ace High, sis
ter ship Of the Minnesota, was pre-
pairing to take off with 100 gallons
Of gas for the flierS when the en-
durance plane was seen to side slip.
Captain Crichton tried to gain alti-
ture and increase his speed but was
unsuccessful, the plane crashing as
1t SWooped over the race track. OBJ
servers said it fell like a pancake" :"
Captain Crichton's body was badly
mangled by the big motor, and
there was some difficulty in extri-
eating it from the wreckage.
Had Flown 1000 Miles
Captain Crichton was a world war
veteran and captain in the arnv
air corps reserves. He was EMPLOYED
at the United States veterans hos
pital at Fort Smelling. His age was
given as IS. Pilot Haugland. 36,
owned and operated an airport and
flying school at Buffalo, MINI. his
home.
Walter Bullock, pilot at the air
port, said he was watching the Min
nesota as it swooped over the field.
He said at about $50 feet the plane
seemed to get out of control, the
motor apparently stalling. The
crash came instantly.
In the six days of flying, Pilots
Hugland and Crichton had covered
upward of 1000 miles on 1875 gall
Ions of gasoline. They had made
l8 successful refueling contacts.
Haugland Critical
Doctors later said Haugland suf-
fered compound fracture of the
skull and possible internal injuries.
They expressed doubt he would re-
cover.
Haugland conceived the idea of
attempting to establish new en-
durance mark soon after the army
plane Question Mark set its record
He tied up all his property, mort
gaging everything he could, to pur-
chase two cabin planes, one for the
endurance attempt and the other
for the refIelinp shin.
In addition to his aviation inter-
eSts, Haugland owned a gasoline
filling stetion. He is veteran of
the World war, having served in the
artillery. He began flying in 1927.
After completing his course, he
started flying by taking Mrs. Haug-
land to a Marion, S. D., hospital
each wek for treatment. She is
paralyZed.

Greeks Got Alphabet
From the Phoenicians

The Phoenlcians are generally be-
lieved TO have produced the first al
phabet and from their group CT sound
symbols have grown all of the alpha
bets In existence today. The Greeks,
1t is known. composed their alphabet
from the Phoenician as result of
their trade with the fst sailors. The
Romans took their alphabet from the
Greek and the English alphabet
comes directly from the Latin.
Only minor changes have come down
In the English alphabet from that of
the Romans. The English added the
letter j" for which II" was used In
the Latin and added IVY" to the Latin
"uv."
Probably the best explanation OF
the Phoenloian alphabet's origin lies
In the rowing disposition of TINT peo-
pie. Stopping at various ports along
the Mediterranean they adopted GER
tain characters of the cuneiform lang
uages of all the countries and adapt

AS one studies this lovely gown
comes the conviction Of changing sill
heuette-which Is true. The newest
lines stress a nodded princess basque
effect, which takes on extreme fullness
at point much lower on the hlpline
than heretofore. Also, skirts grow
longer and longer for the evening
mode. However, their lines are so ex-
quisitely modulated with sheerness
and unevenness one feels In no sense
that they are too long.
The evening taffetas, for which
youth shows such fondness, revel In
delicious" colorings. The gown In
which Dorothy CULVER. rising Holly

picture is an exquisite nile green.
1t seems that green is an outstand-
ing favorite this season among the
fashionable pastel shades. By the
way, pal delicate green Is as becom.
ing to brunettes as blondes, which
may account for its popularity.

OLD.FOLkS SAY
DIR. CALDWELL
WAS RIGHT

/ The basis of treating sickness has not
changed since DR.. Caldwell left Medical
College in 1876, nor since he placed on
the market the laxative prescription he
had used in his practice.
He treated constipation, biliousness,
headaches, mental depression, indigestion,
sour stomach and other indispositions
entirely by means of simple vegetable
laxntives, herbs and roots. These are
still the basis of DR.. Caldwells Syrup
Pepsin, combination OF SIENNA and
other mild herbs, with pepsin.
The simpler the remedy for constipa-
ton, the safer for the child and for you.
And as you can get results in q mild
and safe way by using DR.. Caldwells
Syrup Pepsin, why take chances with
strong drugs'
A bottle will last several months, and
al can use it. 1t is pleasant to the
taste, gentle in action, and free from
narcotics. Elderly people find it ideal.
All drug stores have the generous bottles,
