TO name MOUNTAIN
FOR BEN E|ELS0N
Peak in Mt. Mckinley National
Park to Bear Name Of
North Dakota Hero

Washington, June 11.-(R-Copper
mountain, in the Mount Mckinley
National park, Alaska, would be nam
ed Mount Eielson In honor of Carl
Ben Eielson and his pioneer work In
arctic aviation under a senate reso-
luton adopted Tuesday by the house
and sent to the president.
Lieutenant Eielson lost his life
while doing rescue work by plane in
Siberia last fall.
The house territories committee, In
approving the resolution, reported that
to him should go chief credit for the
development of aviation in the arctic
and subartic regions"
Recalling that he was chiefly
known for his flight from Point Bar
row, Alaska, to Spitzbergen over the
top of the word, the report said: l..
This vas not his only achieve
ment. On many occasions he piloted
his airplane to remote regions Of
Alaska, carrying supplies to sick and
injured. It is eminently fitting that
Copper mountain upon the slopes OF
which Eielson landed on a number
OF occasions should bear his name In
everlasting memory Of his intrepid
acts of valor and mercy and in some
measure Of recognition Of his con-
tribution to the science of aviation"

Dies Like a Hero
True to Tradition

Boston, June 1~1.-(P}-Rolling
waves, fog, fire, screams, and out
Of it all a man who died true to
United States navy tradition.
Such is the story Of Seaman j.
B.. Walker Of Kittery, Me-, who
sank beneath a fire-coated sea
clinging to a woman he had hop
ed to save.
This tale of heroism was told
by Seaman Fred Jam of the U. s.
S. Concord, q passenger on the
Fairfax. The crash, the explosion
like that of a monstrous fire
cracker bursting before ones
eyes, stunned those on board the
Fairfax, Jam said. A woman was
hurled into the air and landed
across a deck rail, hanging limp
and unconscious.
Slowly her body sagged toward
the burning oil that covered the
sea. Heat and flames played
about her. Just as her weight
drew her downward, Walker ran
to her. He threw hts arms about
her legs in a football tackle. Her
weight was too much and slowly
the two slid over the rail.

Four in Jail for
Musical Racket

Chicago, June 11.-(R-A new reck-
ct, consisting Of two guitars. a flute
and a concertina, has been SEMI
squelched in A La Grange park.
-Four men, playing these instru-
ments, have been put in jail. The
chief Of police. E. j. Mitchell, today
issued a statement.
These prisoners will be prosecuted
vigorously. I need hardly say they
are not residents Of A La Grange
park, but hail from a place called
Eyerton, Ark. Of which I never heard.
It is my understanding that the group
originally included a saxophone play
er. I fear he may be at large In this
community. II he is, we'll get him"
The prisoners kept right on playing
when arrested. This lead to circula-
ton OF petitions for their release.
The petitions were signed by other
prisoners.

SHERIFF AND POLICE
Chief ARE INJURED
IN auto ACCIDENT
Machine Goes Oft Road in South
Dakota While Returning
With Byrne Car

Bruised, cut and battered as VIC
tins of an automobile overturn. Chief
Chris j. Martineson and Sheriff Rol-
lin WEIGH returned from Salina. Kan,
Tuesday evening. with the three SOL
diers from Fort Lincoln who made
away with the al of Robert Byrne,
secretary Of state, the night Of
May 81.
The prisoners were brought back in
the stolen car. They are Edward
Shallmo, Jack Endicott and John
Howard. They r in Jail here.
The car accident which bruised and
cut up the two officers and also dis
tributed q few bruises and cuts to
the prisoners, occurred 40 miles south
Of Mitchell, s. D., Saturday evening.
The Bismarck party was following
another car over the brow Of a hill
and was so developed in dust that
when an ascending a got too close
for comfort, the Byrne Car went over
the edge of the road as Sheriff WEIGH
turned out. It rolled over three times
before coming to q rest.
The car was put back on the roac
and was found to be in running or
der, so the officers and prisoners pro-
ceeded to Mitchell and had their
wounds dressed. They rested up
there to make sure there were no in
ternal injuries and then continued
their trip.
The sheriff, being at the wheel, Is
the worst hurt. He has a severe cut
across the right shin, a laceration on
the right side of the forehead and a
slightly discolored right eye. His left
shoulder is severely bruised. Chief
Martineson suffered severe bruises.
The stolen car was recovered solely
through the fact that the three SOL
diers we're in uniform. A motorcycle
officer, making the rounds early one
night at Salina, noticed the party.
But they had obtained a Nebraska
license, which did not coincide with
the description wired from here.
Nevertheless the officer hailed them
off to the police station, where they
confessed that they had stolen the
car here.
The trio was on the way to Texas
when apprehended at Salina. The
Byrne car was still In good shape. but
owing to blowouts on the return,
Sheriff WEIGH put on two new tires.
