TURNER SPEED
TRIP DELAYED,
REPORTS SAY
WeSt-EaSt Record Flight Is
Believed Postponed by
Colonel.

Colonel Roscoe Turner, noted
speed fier who was to have at
tempted to break the west-east
transcontinental air record today,
stopping at Municipal airport here
to refuel. was reported to have post
poned the hop awaiting more favor
able winds.
No telegram announcing start of
the flight had been received at the
airport at noon, although the jaunt
tentatively was scheduled to start
early today
The stop here, one Of three. was
to be the last scheduled refueling
halt.
Flight plans we're kept secret, &C
cording to Major Charles E. Cox
municipal airport superintendent,
who arranged plans for the refuel-
ing here. Turner had planned to
make the trip Sunday, but weather
conditions resulted in its postpone
ment.
hOluS East west NldTk
Turner holds the present east to
west transcontinental flight record
of II hours 80 minutes, set last No
vember, when he averaged 1892
miles an hour against strong head
winds. The previous record had
been set by Captain Frank Hawks,
who made the hop in ID hours, so
minutes, in 1890.
The flier hopes to break the west
east record set last August by Jimmy
Haizlip, who streaked from Bur-
bank, Cal, to the Cleveland air
races, then continued on to New
York, negotiating the mile
flight in 10 hours, 10 minutes.
Slowed by Winds
Turner also participated in the
west-east dash in his Trim Weddell-
Williams racing mOnoplane, making
the hop in 10 hours So minutes,
losing the record by only thirty nine
minutes.
East-to-west flights always are
slower than those in the opposite
direction because Of the prevailing
west winds.
Turner is scheduled to fly the same
Weddell-Williams plane which he
flew when he set the east-West rec
ord.

 cIared to Be Yellow

 "I blame this rat for sending Senator R. B. Howell to his grave".
 Senator Howell of Nebraska was chairman of the committee which investigated charges of fraud ir the election of John H. Overton Long adEsrsnt. in previous ses- sion. Ee died recently. Although he did not elaborate upon his charges against Long, Holland re- ferred to the absence of Senator Tom Connally, of Texas, the sub. committees chairman. Connally was "too yellow to come here to- day and open this Investigation ' the investigator said, "but he plans to sneak in here tomorrow, after it's all down to routine"
 Holland, veteran senate fnvesti. gator who Is credited with expos ing the Teapot Dome oil scandal said the committee members had ''bottled me up' in Washington where he could not gather evidence for the Louisiana hearings. Dur. ing the course of his statement to the committee, Holland turned to Senator M. M. Logan. acting chair man. and accused him of threat ening to beat me up." Long testi- fled in the late afternoon, described his state political machine.

|EICHT-YEAR-OLD
 GIRL PROVES TO BE SENSATION
Made Her Debut Last Night as Pianist and
 AstOunded Critics

New York, Nov 14-(UP)-An eight year old girl who had not wasted her youth, today was lifted from the rank of children piano players and placed among the top flight of concert pianists. She made her debut last night at Town hall and created a sensation. Critics hailed her as genius.
 The child, Ruth Slenczynski faced a full sized concert grand that was so large in comparison to her height, she had to sit on the edge of the bench to manipulate the pedals. She was as assured as a veteran virtuoso, and played a program made up of compositions of Bach, Beethoven, Mendelsohn, and Chopin, many of which highly skilled adult pianists have never mastered. By the time she had played her opening number, Bach's Chromatic Fantasy and Fugue, sho had her audience cheering.
 Ruth Is the daughter Of Joseph Slenczynski, a violinist, who was her only teacher. He was assisted occasionally with the advice of AL fred Cortot, French pianist and COulpOSeEs OAS was UOIh 1A OdCAd" mento, Cal.
 Critics compared her to Yehudi Menuhin, boy violinist. But all pointed out that it was one thing for a child to play 8 half sized violin and to match a child's fin- gers against a huge concert grand.
 Jerome D. Bohm, New York Her ald-Tribue critic, termed her a musical phenomenon"
 "This child drew from her in- strument incredible volumes of sound," he said. Those secrets of touch and technique which many pianists strive futilely for years to unravel have been imparted to this youngster through some inexplic- able source. For no teacher, no matter how extraordinary his ca pacity to elucidate, could possibly do more than anxiously guard such an uncanny talent from harmful influences"
