NEW YORK.-This is the story Of
a coed and a carpenter, and the
kind Of luck that watches over in
FAINT mariners. All that Eric john
son and Florence Smith knew when
they set out from Bermuda on their
l5-foot sailboat was that New York
City lay about 700 miles due north
west by north. Their craft, with its
slender mast and tiny cabin, was
untried in the open sea. And neither
Of the couple had any knowledge
or navigation, beyond the ability tc
read a pocket compass.
But not until they were safely
locked at a Brooklyn pier sixteen
DAYS later-although they almost
lost their lives at the last minute in
a collision with a brick barge-was
their confidence shaken. When Oh
salts had called the voyage a Eslr-
acle, no less. and had maTveled at
the diminutive egg-shell which had
ridden out four days of storms,
Florence and Eric decided that may
be they had done something re-
markable after all.
They landed without food, waite,
baggage. money or clearance papers
from the immigration authorities.
II also should be noted that each
emphatically disclaimed any roman
tic attachment for the other. Just

year-old Johnson in wind-blown ac-
cents. "Ah don't take much truck
with wimmin. No subj But Miss
Smith, now-she's brave an able
Ike a regular fella."
Girl n College Graduate
Miss Smith, bronzed and buxom,
is "a, a graduate Of the University
Of Maine. and born Of a sea-going
family on a tiny island-in the Bay
Of Fundy. She majored in biology
at the university, worked for a year
in a laboratory. got sick Of the
profession" and went to Bermuda
on a pleasure trip. So well did she
like the island that she remained
for a year. working as a waitress.

quite marvellous ship models. I love
to sail. Of course, and We got to be
friends. Once we sailed around the
island together.
When I decided to go back to
my home in Grand Manan, New
Brunswick, Eric suggested that he
sail me across. 1t sounded easy. but
1 guess we didn't know what an ad-
venture it would be-"
The boat, one of those built by
Johnson, was fitted with water
tight deck and a cabin about the
size Of a packing case. They christ
ened it the Florence and provisioned
it with dried beef, hard tack, can
ned vegetables and a tank Of fresh
water.
-Four Days Of Storms
Johnson was seasick for several
days. a handicap which Miss Smith
almost g~leefully recalled. For four
days they rode to a sea anchor In
a furious squat, the waves dashing
high over their craft. Another time,
the wind whipped a blanket from
the deck and the young woman,
snatching at it. went overheard
She could not swim. but grabbed
the line Johnson threw her and was
dragged aboard again-still clutch

Not until the last morning did
they sight any other boat. Off Sandy

course for New York. AS ignorant

IOWA BOARD APPROVES
 THIRTEEN SUSPENSIONS
Official, in Control of Athletics Re- ports to Investigating Com
 mittcC on Players

Iowa City. la. Jan. II (P)-Tho Iowa board in control of athletics announced early today. after meet ing with the big nme Investigating committee. that after consultation with the western conference cligi- bility Investigating committee it was convinced it's recent action in declaring thirteen athletes ineligible was "correct."
 The conference committee will report it's investigation to the Big Nine controlling body for action.
 The Investigating committee head cd by Prof Thomas E. French of this university concluded it's hearing late last night Prof French said the faculty control committee of the western conference, has power to act.
 The hearing had been asked by Iowa officials on behalf of the 13 ineligible athletes. Hawkeye author itics in requesting it said they wish = cd to know if Essential justice does not warrant reinstatement of these athletes"
 Their statement early todayk was taken as indicating they had aban- doned their previous attitude.
 Neither Iowa officials nor mem- bers of the conference committee would conjecture what would be the effect on lowa's suspended athletic relations with Big Nine schools in titude. It has been considered that lowa's failure to declare them in. eligible prior to lowas hearing ;r Chicago in December was the foca point in it's failure to obtain rein statement in the conference.

 The committee, however, barred the Pole from appearing in the Brooklyn Evening High school and Pastime A. C. meets, sponsors of which have advertised his appear ance. The original action of the committee barring him from compc- tton was taken on the grounds that there were Suspicious circum- stanccs' with regard 10 his visit here which the A. A. T.. body said. at that time, was made at the in Nitation of certain resident of New York.
 At hearing yesterday which nctkicwicz attended it was brought out that the Pole was here as a diplomatic courier of the Polish state department and that his ex- penses are being paid by the Polish | government The A. X, |. commit tee then decided there was no req son why he should not be permitted to run.
