MRS. RAY LYMAN WILBUR is SEEN
AS MRS. ffOOVER'S BEST FRIEND
First Lady and interior Sec
retary'S Wife Goods at
Same Time.
Old Injury May Prevent Par
tiCipation in Society
of Capital.

BY the Associated Press.
Mrs. Ray Lyman Wilbur, wife of the
new Secretary of the Interior, probably
will be Mrs. Herbert Hoovers closest
friend in the Capital.
Their association began when they
were goods together in Leland STAN
ford University, and Mrs. Wilbur feels
her chief Joy in coming to Washington
is the renewal of this friendship of
many years standing. 1t has never
been disrupted, but the span of con-
tinent has separated them from each
other during more than a decade except
for infrequent visits.
A misfortune of Mrs. Wilbur'S. how
ever, will bring them closer together
than they would be otherwise in the
swirl of official social life. Ill health
which she has suffered since she fell
from horse and broke two yertebrae
of her neck seven years ago, probably
will keep Mrs. Wilbur from most of her
social duties. But it is expected to make
more intimate the First Lady's attentions
to her friend.
Sees Zest In Stay Here.
Because of these circumstances, Mrs.
Wilbur said today, she looks OH the
four-year period with Zest. She will
remain. at least for time, in the hotel
suite to which she came last week end.
and she will attempt to participate in
some of the official ceremonies, although
it will be impossible for her to be as
active as will be most of the other
cabinet ladies.
During the first five years after the
accident. she explained, she continued
really strenuous" duties of her role as
the wife of the university president.
my friends said my New England
conscience made 1t possible she added,
but found it comparatively easy"
The injury suffered in the fall was a
fracture of the spinal bones. Mrs. Will
bur's survival of it has been marveled
at by physicians. For five years after
it occurred she felt comparatively we'll
except for an occasional lamenesS.
Then she was totally incapacitated.
Several months ago her physicians
operated cutting away the spinal bones
and cutting the covering of the cord
Five years ago this, an unusually deli
cate operation, physicians say, would
have been impossible.
Improvement Forecast.
"In nine months or a year." Mrs
Wilbur said. II hope to be much
stronger" For the present, though, she
will spend most of her time resting.
Mrs. Wilbur's own, as we'll as her
husbands family. have been prominent
in medicine and in other professions
Her interest in science was one Of the
things which gave her a ground OF
common interest on which to meet the
former Lou Henry.
Mrs. Wilbur was Miss Marguerite
May Blake. One of her three sons Is
physician of the Mayo Clinic al
Rochester, Mimi: another recently
began the practice of surgery in Cali
fornia, and the third and youngest is
studying to enter the profession. The

American made goods in competition
with foreign-made goods OF the same
quality.

Threatened by Federals.

NoGALES,- Ariz., March 9 R).-A
threatened aerial bombardment of
Nogales, Sonora. the revolutionary
stronghold of Northern Mexico, by * al
federals under Gen. Abelardo Rodrigurz,
was looked upon today as an indication
that the international border may wit
ness another battle.
Rodriguez who has been concentrat-
ing fighting planes and loyal soldiers al
Mexicali. border town and capital OF
Baia California, was reported TO have
prepared a landing field for Is or 20
planes at San Luis on the Sonora aJa
California horder. Bulletins were said
TO have been posted by federal leaders
offering jobs to American avlatorS at
$3.50 q day
The federals were said to have ten
planes at MeXicali, but two of these
were destroyed by a fire at the nlu-
nicipal airport there late last night
The blaze started when mechanics were
tuning up a plane and short circuit
developed.
Blaze Spreads to Bombs.
The blaze spread to box OF bombs
in a hangar and they exploded, causing
great excitement and giving rise 10
report that revolutioniStS had attacked
the town. Mrs r. FuenteS, wife OF
mechanic, was injured. The loss was
placed at $4,000.
The fire was not expected to greatly
impede the plans Of the federals, as
Rodriguez has announced that more
planes would arrive shortly.
Rodriguez began his activities yes
terday when he sent plane to drop
thousands of handbills on Nogales. The
federal plane caused great excitement,
the rebels believing they were being at
tackled. Revolutionary soldiers ran to
cover and did not fire on the plane.
The handbills, appealing to the rev.
olutionaries to return to the federal Size,
said:
Your army officers have led you into
rebellion by spreading falsehoods among
you They are merely using you as the
tools for the personal ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
of selfish and merciless politicians. Turn
again to the path of duty. Be patriotic
and do not bequeath to your sons leg
acy of shame and treason"
Gen. Rodriguez said he expected nine
bombing planes to be delivered to him
next week and that the next time he
sent aviators to Nogales they would
carry something more deadly than cir
culars." He declared he had 600 fed
erals at San Luis.
San Luis Attack Intimated.
At the same time, Gen. FauSto To-
pete, Governor of Sonora and reVolu-
fionary leader, intimated that he might
attack the federals at San Luis.
Meanwhile, a battle appeared immi-
nent at Mazatlan, Sinaloa, where Gen.

In the opinion of Umpire Cecil
