ing of the Detroit Times balloon entry
piloted by Arthur Schlosser and Edward
j. Hill, in the Adirondack wilds yester-
day forenoon. After being without food
for SO hours, Schlosser and Hill reached
the settlements today.
The balloon, the pilots said, de-
scended about 7:15 am. yesterday in
the forest near Moose Pond. All day
yesterday they wandered through the
woods seeking some sign OF civilization.
During the night they reached Rich
Lake, near Newcomb, and crossed 1t In
a collapSible boat.
While at work on the State highway
near here shortly before noon today
Howard Anderson heard shouts. A
moment later the aeronauts, nearly
exhausted. emerged from the woods.
What State is this?" was their first
question.
I'VE have had nothing to eat since
we left our wrecked balloon" Schlosser
said, as they were breaking their long
fast at Anderson's home. I'm an effort
to remain in the air as We dritted
toward the forest We were compelled
to throw away much valuable parapher-

camera"
Schlosser said that IL or IL men
would be needed to restore the balloon.
The attempt will be made after the
aeronautS have had sufficient rest.

Lieut.. Settle said he and Bushnell
had an enjoyable trip. There was some
trouble at times with low clouds, puC
there were sufficient openings 10 enapIe
them to keep check on their position at
all times. The landing was deliberate,
due the exhaustion of ballast and the
fact that gas was low. They had no
difficulty in preventing their bag from
being carried out to sea.

flight was 10000 feet, although occa-

ident Dawes, found the concluding
hours of his four years service as
presiding officer of the senate only
a little less hectic than that OPEN
ing session in 1925, when he under

Those who came to WASHINGTON
in continuous procession through

ture almost complete, except for the
man and the hour. On the capitol
plaza a great, white pillared portico
ross high above the pavement, rea-
dy for the coming of Hoover, and
about it stretched a vast expanse of
bright-timbered benches from which
thousands will see the chosen lead

fetal obligation and hear him an
nounce his policies to the world in
his inaugural address. Over the
mile-stretch of Pennsylvania ave-
nue., where the inaugural parade will
follow the phantom lead of many
historic pageants which have gone
before, temporary bleachers were
ready for thousands more. Direct
ly in front of the White House, in a
court Of honor bright with new
bunting, stood the resplendent re-
viewing stand from which the new
president will watch the passage of
the multitude come to honor him.
Everywhere throughout the city the
Stars and Stripes flutered on the
March breeze.

HOOVER CALM
BEFORE FETE
Former Missouri Governor
Named to Cabinet; Last
Member Is Mystery
BY JAMES l.. WEST

t~kASSOCldIcQ TTGSS Quail WTlLSIJ
WASHINGTON, March 2.-P)-
The climax of a crowded career
only f~orty-eight hours away, Presi-
dent-elect Hoover today awaited his
Inauguration with a serenity sharp
ly in contrast with the frenzied eff
forts of the political guessers to hit
upon the name of the tenth nan in
his cabinet, the commerce secretary.
The identity of the other one of
the two men around whom had
been thrown a veil of mystery was
uncovered overnight. He is Arthur
M. Hyde, former governor of Mis-
souri,, who has accepted the agri-
culture portfolio.
In making this appointment, the
next chief executive went into the
camp Of the most formidable of his
foes in the pre-convention cam
paign-former Governor Frank o.
Lowden of Illinois.
The other man of mystery" is
known to be a big business man Of
Cook county, Ill. but after the trial
had been carried that far it was
lost.
AS he awaits Monday. MI. Hoover
is enjoying the peace of the big red
brick mansion on S street which
has been his home for years. He is
surrounded there by al of the mem
bers Of his immediate family, the
circle having been completed with
the arrival last night Of Allan, a
student at Stanford University,
California.
MI. Hoover's only sister, Mrs.
Mary Leavitt, of Long Beach, Cali
is on the way here for the
Inauguration, but the only brother
of the president-elect. Theodore
Hoover, dean of the school of en-
cheering at Stanford, who had such
a large hand in the arrangements
for the notification ceremonies at
Stanford On August IL, last, will be
unable to attend due to illness.
