NOTED STUNTER KILLED

OMAHA.

Twenty thousand spectators saw him fall.
 He volunteered during lull in the program to go aloft in stif wind. For fifteen minutes he de- lighted the crowd and then fell. The plane bounced once and then rolled, blowing up the dirt for more than two hundred feet before it stopped. The body was thrown out and it is believed the safety belt must have broken.
 Dorothy Hestor. aged l9. of Pore- land, Oregon, broke the woman's world record for outside loops dur ing a single flight. She made six ty-two of them before coming down.
 So great was the strain on the nervous system that she had to be lifted from the plane and placed on stretcher for an hour fol- lowing her flight.

BIZ THOMAS h. HENRY.

Mother Earth refuses to tell her age,
She Is at least 500 900 900 years old.
and she may have reached the ripe old
age of 3 600 900 600, but she cannot be
trlcked into admitting the number OF
birthdays she has known.
Such Is the conclusion from the most
exhaustive application ever made OF all
known methods for estimating the age
of the earth, the reults of which have
lust been published by the National Re-
search Council. The above estimates
were reached from a worldwide SURVEY
of radioactive disintegTation, which all
the experts agreed was the best meas
uring stick. conducted for the council
by the British geologist, Arthur Holmes.
The method is based on the fact that
certain rare elements, especially ura-
MUM and thorium, disintegTate spon-
taneously at constant, determlnaole
rates and changed into lead. If 1t could
be assumed that they were present at
the beginning of time the amount OF
lead associated with them would reveal
accurately the age Of the earth.
Rocks Are Studied.
The oldest uranium bearing rocks
Holmes could find were some from the
Back Hills of South Dakota and from
the Province of Carelia in Russia. The
former showed total age OF ,460 OUO :
0CO years. The lead associated with
the latter indicated l,852 ,00O,O 600 years
but the results were not quite so re-
liable. But there is evidence that IN
both cases these rocks have intruded
into still older rocks which are NOT
subject to measurable atomic dislntegra-
tion
1--WE can still hnd,' Holmes says, mo
trace of a beginning. We can be sure
that the earth is older than the Oldest
known rocks and, therefore, consider
ably older than the oldest granite in
trllsions. Before the oldest GRANTEES
were intruded into the earth's crust
there was at least one cycle OF denuoa :
ton and standardization, the deposits
of the sedimentation being represented
by the rocks into which the GRANTEES
were injected" .o
Thus, he holds. to the $50 ,0OO,O Ou
wears of the South Dakota rocks must
be added at least 14o, 900 900 years e
account for the formation OF the still
older rocks. 100
But. DR.. Holmes stresses, this 500
0O0. 900 years is very close to the
minimum. Taking the average proper
ton of lead in igneouS rocks, or those
rocks which cooled from molten state
and probably were volcanic lava IN
the beginning, and assuming that II
