Plane Refued Quickly
 By Special Tank on Car

SAN ANTONIO, Tex, Aug. 16.- Just how closely the automobile may be associated with the air plane is demonstrated by a refuel- ing truck designed by Wayne Parks, manager of Winburn field.
 It accommodates 300 gallons of gasoline, 75 gallons of oil and 25 of water. Special pumps and an air compressor are driven by a power take-off from the truck s transmission.
 By dispensing all fuels at the same time, it takes about three minutes to refucl an airplane com pletely as compared with 30 to 40 minutes by ordinary methods of pumping. Parks pump shoots about 20 gallons of gasoline a minute into planes tank.

TERRITORY IS
 BUILDING TWO
 NEW AIRP0RTS
Anchorage and Seward to Have Landing Fields,
 Sommers Announces

Two new airports are now being constructed by the Territory and numerous improvements made to established fields. said R. J. Som mers, Territorial Highway Engineer, who returned home yesterday after a seven-weeks' stay in interior and western Alaska. He spent most of the time in the Fairbanks dis trict and in addition covered the railroad belt and visited Seldovia and other lower Cook Inlet points.
 Airports are being built at An chorage and Seward, both towns cooperating in financing the pro- jects. The field at Anchorage is practically completed and will even tually be one of the finest in Alaska MT. Sommers said
 It will have two runways, each 400 feet wide by 2,000 feet long. It is ideally situated for land planes. It will cost approximately S6,00o, NlllCli Will DC DulllC CHuai1J py OAAS town and Territory.
 The Seward field will cost about $20,000 when complete. The town is furnishing the land and bearing 25 per cent of the cost, the Terri tory furnishing the remainder of the funds. It will also have two runways, one 200 by 2,o00 feet and the other 200 by l,400 feet Work was delayed in starting by a tie-up over title to the land, but this has been solved and construction will be pushed.
 The interior has experienced one of its wettest summers, MT. Som- mers said. This has hampered road work to some extent, but it has been of much value to the min ing industry, particularly beneficial to small operators.
 The Fairbanks Exploration Com pany is apparently well satisfied with the results of it's dredging op erations in the Fairbanks field.
 It is operating three big dredges and has two additional ones under construction. These will be com pleted this fall and put into active operation at the beginning of the season of 1880.

 The party left Seattle June IT., on the schooner Dorothy, Capt. Fl. Hvatum, and sailed directly for Nome. From there it worked north and west, doing most of it's hunt ing off the Siberian coast.

It had some freight aboard ship for the Russian Government to be landed at North Cape, but ice prevented it from reaching that point It landed the freight at Nome.
 The hunt, MT. Jonas said, was en- tirely successful from every stand point. Messrs. Thorne and Graves are now after group of caribou to be placed in the Field Museum.

ICELAND PIONEER
 IN POPULAR RULE
Had Assembly in 930, When
 DeSpOts Ruled Europe

Washington, Aug. 23,P)-Ten cen turies ago. with civilized Europe lying inert in the intellectual stupor of the dark ages, Iceland establish ed a popular assembly.
 Then, it's founding went unheed- ed; now, the entire world will join hands with the homeland of sag and Viking heroes to commemorate an event which time has revealed as 'the most instructive and interest ing phenomenon in the history of the middle ages"
 At holy Thingvalla, site of the es tablishment in 930 of the parlia- ment, or Althing, the one thou sandth birthday of the oldest of all existing national assemblies in the civilized world will be celebrated next June.
 The spot was selected by odd Vik- irg chieftains and is known as "the plain of the parliament to some and to historians as the cradle of political freedom of the world and of the government of all na- tions."
 Steep walls of basalt hem in the plain, which is three miles broad and six miles long, and the fourth side opens on the greatest lake Of Iceland, Thingvalla-vatn
 In the vast, natural amphitheater a popular assembly was held each year. all the heather priests and a1 the sessions, unless exempted.
 Europe, when the Althing was es- tablished, was in state of feudal- ism, Christianity was spreading out its arms to convert the world. Americas shores had not felt the foot of the white man.
 Yet, for it's antiquity and the startling handicap It had on the world, Iceland, as it will be host to the commemorators, will still reveal the charm of old Viking days.
 The Althing was fathered by Ulfljot, a venerable Viking chieftain and godi, or pagan priest. It stretches continuously in history for 10 centuries and for nearly 900 years 1t met every year.
 The parliament languished as a popular gathering under Danish rule and in June 6, 1900 it was abolished by royal edict. Under King Chris NNan VIII it was established as consultative body to meet in 1S45.
 Since becoming an independent kingdom in union with Denmark in 1918, the Icelanders today boast a full-fledged parliamentary system still called by the old name, Althing.
 The festival in June will be partly held in the historic surroundings of the old meeting place and in Rey- kjavik, the capital city.
 President Herbert Hoover has been authorized to accept the in vitation rendered the United States to join in the celebration.
 Five official representatives will be appointed to participate and memorial to Jeff Ericsson, ventur- ing son of Eric the Red, will be presented.

WOMEN AS DETECTIVES
 IN FAVOR IN LONDON
Are More Effective Than Strong Arm Men in Guarding Gems
 at Society Affairs

London, Aug. 23 LI9-The lady detective ills coming into her own in London society, whose season is an- nually growing more elaborate. More costly plate is used, more jewels are in evidence, and there are more gate -crashers.
 London hostesses have found that the best safeguard to their functions is not a large flat-footed man, but a svelte, chicly-gowned woman who can mingle with the guests and arouse no undue suspicion.
 Most of the women detectives have their own business and their own clientele. They are well ac- quainted with the outstanding mem- bers of the petty thieving tribe and can readily spot them on a crowded ballroom floor around a closely packed dinner table or at a we'd ding where costly gifts are within easy reach of itching fingers.

 FOR EVERY SCORE
One to Every 20 Persons, Auto
 to Every Seven

Pullman, Wash. Dec. NP)- Although tho United States boasts of one automobile to every seven persons, there is only on" lathtub 10 every 2".' Stanley A. Smith. head of the Washington State college depart mcnt of architectural engineering. said in a lecture here.
 'This fact seems surprising 10 the younger generation" he declared, but most of the older people re- member the days of the old oaken bucket and the fact is that our present-day bathtubs, lavatories, shower baths and kitchen sinks were unknown in America until the mid dle of the last century.
 Tt Is true that the ancient peo- pies believed in frequent bathing. If that ancient Egyptian Pharaohs S daughter had not been believer in the bath it is quite possible that Moses would not have been rescued from his watery cradle. The Greeks. too. were great believers in personal cleanliness. but the habit of bathing practically ceased during the dark ages.
 'As one writer has expressed if, A thousand years without a bath surely those were dark agcs--dark with dirt. Not until the beginning of the 10th century did the world re- member that native demands q clean skin, and then Henry " of England organized the Knights Of the Bath. Candidates were selected by the king and were not initiated until they had taken a bath" smith declared.
 Co-cds, Smith said, did less bath ing in olden times.
 X copy Of q college c&talOg pub lished about 900 years ago at one of tho schools for daughters of nobility at St. Cyr. France. sets forth: Pupils arc entitled to have one set of un- derclothing, one pair Of stockings and two handlierchiefs per month. Towels: pupils. one every We-a; nuns. one every two weeks. Foot baths: pupils, one month; nuns. only by special authorization Of the superior. Complete baths: three q year (Niay, June. July).'

 Turning to the coach's position, he said that this was the most diff cult of any. II team doesn't win the majority of it's games, he loses his job. This is unfair because the coach cant be held responsible and many colleges are getting away from it. He says that in some quarters it is urged to make the coach q mem Der of the faculty, this being oduca- tional camouflagc.

 The little three" of Amherst, Williams and Wesleyan is the finest typo of combination, according to the report. he said.
 Recruiting is all right, he said, be cause every college should try 10 get the highest type of men as students. SubsidizinG. however, is all wrong because it is offering money for ath- lctic ability. An athlete who does this is not playing sport for the Eakc of sport This has become q regular business in colleges, he said
 Athletic scholarships are all right also but athletes are entitled to no more than any other students. This system has been abused.
 iGh II the newspapers hand out about pub licity of the athletes. He said that it wasn't a good thing for a young man of 20 or more years Of age to have the newspapers tell what color suspenders he wore or what he ate for breakfast. He cited picture of Albie Booth with his mother in the paper the other day. He said that Booth was probably a fine fellow and a really good football player but why bring in the old lady?"
 He said that Dr. Pritchard, pre&l- dent of the Carnegie Foundation had given eight cures but he disagreed with most of .hem. He did not be- lieve in abolishinG the paid coach. or the gate receipts.
