CUBANS SEE AIR
THRILL SHOW

Officers of the United States
Army Air Corps staged a hair
raising aerial show over Wash
ington today in honor of the
visiting Cuban goodwill fliers.
The Cubans arrived at Boiling
Field shortly before 10 o'clock
and had scarcely alighted from
their automobile when IL of the
fastest scouting planes Of the Air
Corps took off to start the show.
Flying low over the field, they
executed some Of the most daring
individual and formation maneu-
vers known to the Air Corps.
With wings deeply banked they
trimmed the we'll" around the
field like bicycle riders in a velo-
drome. Later they extended their
their aerial maneuving out over
the city. The Cubans watched
the show from the field.
Later the three visiting fliers
were luncheon guests of the Air
Corps officers. They also were
scheduled to lay a wreath on the
Tomb of the Unknown Soldier at
Arlington. They were greeted by
President Hoover yesterday.

FUTURE BRIGHT,

The progress and future of the
Morris Plan Banks was the topic
Of an address today before the
Morris Plan Bankers convention
at the Shoreham Hotel, by Rob-
ert O'Bonnell, president of the
Morris Plan Bank of Baltimore.
Mr.. O'Bonnell's address fol-
lowed a session last night in
which convention delegates we're
shown the famous "lie detector"
machine which is claimed to have
prevented and detected the theft
of thousands of dollars and to
have been of value in selecting
personnel for banks.
Mr.. O'Bonnell today said good
will and service of the Morris
Plan institutions to the public
have made them prosper to such
an extent that none has had to
seek Federal aid and the outlook
for the future is optimistic.

D. K. REQUIRED.
AFTER DEC. |
BY DRIVERS
Brakes, Steering Gear, Lights
to Be Inspected in "SaVe-
a-Life" Campaign

After December l all auto
mobiles in the District will be
required to bear a certificate
that they have passed a me-
chanical test and approval by
the Traffic Department.
This was announced today by
William A. Van Duzer, Director
of Traffic, who said the cam
paign will begin october IS in
conjunction with the "Save-a-
Life" drive.
Tests will be made of brakes,
steering gear and headlights and
a certificate of approval will be
placed on windshields of cars
passing inspection. Machines not
bearing the certificate after the
deadline will be stopped and the
driver questioned. The system
has been used in many States
for several years.
Mr.. Van Duzer said:
''The system has been sue
Cessful in other cities and /
think it will be a big factor
toward reducing accidents here.
About 3 per cent of traffic &C
CidentS here are attributed to
mecnanlCal defects OF auto,
mobiles.
"The percentage is probably
much higher but after a ma
chine has been in an accident,
it is difficult to determine how
defective the car was before"
Mr.. Van Duzer said it is planned
to designate places throughout
the city for tests. There are
approximately 140, 200 automobiles
here and work of inspecting
them should require about six
weeks.

Base Ball Reverts to Type.

Washington yesterday witnessed a re-
vival Of the strenuous base ball of dec
ades ago when players went on the ram
page, fists flew, eyes were blacked and
other souvenirs Of strife were distrib
uted. In recent times the game has been
softened and sweetened greatly by the
adoption and enforcement of rigid rules
again direct personalities between play
ers. The penalties for violation have been
too severe for light and frequent disre-
gard. But this discipline, while render
ing the game less spectacular, has not
affected any fundamental changes of
disposition on the part of the players.
They have developed a new technique
in restraint Of tempers, giving vent to
all but physical demonstration Of dis
like and disagreement and just falling
short OF breach of regulations. Umpires,
becoming adept in differentiation, have
been compelled to tolerate such gestures
of challenge. For example, on Sunday
in this city, a visiting player who was
peeved at the possibly intentional Wild
ness of the pitcher, let his bat slip
from his hands at the next pitch-ac-
cidentaIly Of course-with such force
that it slithered down to the short
stop quite uncomfortably close to the
pitchers feet. He was chided sor this
careiessness, but was permittedAto re-

should assume in dealing with pressing
world problems. The Democratic can
didate invoked the spirit of woodrow
Wilson as he stood before the conven-
tiop which only a few hours previous
had named him fer the presidency.
Has Mr.. Roosevelt irrevocably turned
his gaze away from the crowning Will
sonian ideal of the League Of Nations?
Does the Governor believe, as his party
platform proclaims, that under no cir
cumstances shall the foreign debts
owing America be cancelled? Does the
Rooseveltian conception of an "en-
lightened international outlook" mean
that the Democratic standard bearer

main In the game, as, Of course, any
player may lose his grip on his bat at
any time.
Yesterday the line was crossed. The
fiaring temper of the visiting catcher
caused an outburst on the local field
that will result in the absence Of two
valued performers from their respective
teams for some time, one with broken
jaw and the other with ticket OF
leave. The assault was unprovoked In
the strictest sense of the word, but
there were circumstances, not Of justi-
fication but of explanation. A base
runner went into the home plate to
score a run. The catcher was standing
at the plate on guard waiting for the
ball Contrary to the usual practice,
perhaps the ethics of the sport, the
runner failed to slide. A collision oc-
Cured, not disastrous to the catcher,
but annoying. Something snapped in
his nervous system and he reverted to
type and landed a vicious clenched fist
on the erstwhile runners jaw, fractur-
ing it, as it later proved. The umpire,
to be quite impartial, and without paus-
ing to determine the delicate question
of possible provocation, banished both
men from the game. In any event, one
of them would have had to leave by
virtue of his injury. The other was
automatically out.
Demand has been made by the local
management that the flst-swinging
Yankee" in addition to suffering fine
and suspension, be made to pay for the
hospital expenses of the injured local
performer. That interjects new ele-
ment into the penal system of the sport

the French, when compared with our
