He had achieved a mark of 90 in

Though lie headed a group of 40
lads-selected as the brightest

went through the brain test with
flying colors, young Huston took his
honors modestly and disappeared
into the seclusion of Edison S home
soon after the award.
Huston's hobby is marine biology,
but he faced the vast range of Edl-
son queries with remarkable success.
His answers, however, will not be
made known to a waiting world, for
Charles Edison, the inventors son,

YELLOW Bird

Continued from page onel
Atlantic monoplane Yellow Bird was
1arlng well on its air road from the
United States to France.
The French line steamer Niagara
reported that s a. m. New York
time. 1t ~as in communication with
the plane and that all was well.
Three hours later the Cunarder Ia
coma picked up the plane by radio
and received the same encouraging
report.
The Niagara was between 300 and
400 miles northeast Of the Azores
when she spoke to the Yellow Bird
and the Lec0nia was 700 northeast
OF the islands when she raised the
plane.
In neither instance did the Yellow
Bird give her position. and as it has
a radio range Of 600 miles. its posi-
ton could not be accurately plotted
from the positions Of the steamers.
But an earlier report from the
French liner Rochambeau had said
the plane had decided to take the
southern route by way Of the Azores
and Portugal. so il was supposed she
was somewhere between the Azores
and the mainland when she COM
mJnicated with the Niagara and the
Laconia.
The Yellow Bird told the Roch-
ambeau it was taking the southern
course because OF an unexpected
high rate Of gasoline consumption.
From the fact that ii made no men
ton OF its fuel supply in its later
communications. ii was believed a
recheck Of the tanks had been re-
assuring.
AVlators we're al a loss to explain
the UNEXPECTEDLY high consumption
Of fuel reported by the Rochambeau.
The Yellow Bird had been flown re-
peatedly in test flights and the rate
OF consumption was supposed to
have been definitely determined.
Weather reports indicated a fav-
orabie wind had been encountered.
SO strong head winds could not be
blamed.
One possibility considered in some
quarters was that the added weight
OF a Stowaway rumored to be on
board the plane had been enough to
upset the calculations on fuel con
sumption and cause the engine to
burn more than the expected
amount.
