later, upon reaching high school age, an

was replaced by photos and newspaper

BY the time Breen entered upon his

by taking a course in radio engineering.

activities that were allied with the

been replaced by radio and Tom cut

an engineer on the construction work

Flying Colonel and Wife Plan
to Take Off Tomorrow
From Fukuoka.

BY the Associated Press.
FUKUOKA, Japan, September IT.
Col and Mrs. Charles A. Lindbergh
arrived here at 4:01 pm. (2:01 am,
Eastern standard time) today after a
300-mile fight from Osaka. From
here they will proceed to China in
continuation of their aerial vacation
tour of the Orient
The Lindberghs took of from Osaka,
Japanese industrial city at 1858 p. m,
today 10:58 Wednesday Eastern
standard time).
They were escorted along the Inland
Sea by a Japan Air Transport Co.
plane, the services of which were re-
quested by the colonel to avoid the
possibility of crossing fortified areas,
an offense for which Clyde Pangborn
and Hugh Herndon, jr., American ny
ers now awaiting permission OF the
Japanese government to start trans
pacific flight, recently were fined.
Fly Over Inland Sea.
The Lindberghs will spend the night
here. They expect to take of on the
more than 600-mile flight to Marking,
capital of China. early tomorrow.
The flyers enjoyed a privilege not
often granted foreigners-that of flying
over the Inland Sea, whose scenery is
the Inland Sea from commercial yes
sells, which are permitted to ply the
riverlike body of water splitting Japan
in half, but few are permitted to fly
over it.
Col and Mrs. Lindbergh had another
unusual experience before their take
off from Osaka in the form of a stow
away. The colonel and American
Consul Dickover of Kobe found the
stowaway In the luggage space of the
big monoplane. Police took him in
hand.
Stowaway Is Student.
The stowaway was Matsuji Shimizl,
II, student. He said he hid himself
in the plane before dawn, hoping to
make q flight with the famous couple"
ShimizI pleaded he was q great adj
mirer OF Lindbergh. He said he long
had wanted to see America and thought
it would have been a great stunt II he
could have done so via whatever route
the Lindberghs might choose for their
return flight.

foremost swan owners in Great Britain.
All the swans on the river Thames, be1
tween Southwark Bridge, London, and
Reading are jointly owned by the SOW
ereipn and the Dyers' and WINNERS
companies. The increase in the swan
population of the Thames this year
was $50, bringing the total up TO 900.
For generations Swan upping" has
been a regular and exciting feature OF
river life. Under the supervision OF
three swan masters all the young birds
are marked. Nicks are made In their
peaks so that their ownership would
be identifiable If they were to fly away.
If there is threat of severe Winter
weather the jointly owned birds are
taken from the river and housed ashore.
