Thrilling Rescue Made From
Storm-SWept Base of
Lighthouse.
By United Press

By Unfted Press
CEDAR POINT, O., July A.
Coast guardsmen late Monday saved
ten chilled and hungry fishermen
from the prospect Of spending a
second night marooned on a wave
swept lighthouse jetty a mile from
the Lake Erie shore.
Drawing mountainous waves to
bring a small boat near the rocky
jetty, the coast guard succeeded in
taking the men, one by one, from
the tiny abandoned lighthouse
where they had been stranded since
Sunday afternoon.
For more than thirty hours the
ten men, all Clevelanders, had hud-
died disconsolately on the narrow
concrete platform which supported
the lighthouse.
Their only food was a few water
soaked sandwiches, thrown to them
by coast guardsmen, who were I'M
able to bring boat near the jetty
because of certainty that the waves
would demoliSh the craft against
the rocks.
The men were marooned Sunday
afternoon while fishing from the
jetty, which extends in an irregular
pile of huge rocks from the shore to
the lighthouse.

occurred as the two planes hurtled
toward the second pylon, some three
kilometers from the reviewing
stands.
Maynard took the lead rounding
the first pylon, and Gibson, anxious
to regain the advantage, put on a
burst Of speed
His ship, roaring at 200 miles an
hour, Gibson went into the turn at
a sharp angle, although he was less
than 100 feet from the ground.
The plane began sideslipping, and
before the film cowboy could right
it the nose dipped earthward.
Gibson crashed at full speed, de-
molishing the plane. Field attend
ants were amazed to see the smil-
ing actor extricate himself, a cut
on the cheek his only injury.
Maynard, who at first was I'M
aware that Gibson crashed, saw the
crowd, and then abandoned the
twenty-mile race. He landed near
Gibson's plane and helped the lat
ter into an automobile.
The two were racing for trophy

Lloyd as referee of the contest.

previously to sell bonds for the pur-

bonds were illegal, under the $3.50

However, a section of the tax
limitation law was repealed by the
last legislature, and legality of the
proposed bonds can be established
now, it is believed.
The city owes $32,64738 to the In

COCKTAIL PERIL
Most Deadly Drink Is
Given TrounCing at
Milwaukee Meeting.
BY WILLIAM A. MUELLER
United Press Stan Correspondent

MILWAUKEE, July 4.-The Ma
tional Women's Christian Temper
ance Union launched a new cam
paign of education in convention
here Monday night when Miss Ber-
tina R. Palmer of Boston gave a
report intended to show that the
cocktail is the most deadly of
drinks.
Other developments during the
day included announcement that
Mrs. Ella A. Bole, one of the most
famous of all prohibition advocates,
would not seek reelection as presi-
dent. and the launching of a cam
palgn against ornaments.
The Deadly Cocktail"
The cocktail is the example of the
quickest toxic or poisonous effect"
said Miss Palmer, who until recent
ly was state superintendent of pub
lie instruction in North Dakota.
She said that ethyl or beverage
alcohol, is more poisonous than
methyl or wood alcohol. The result
of a single drink of ethyl alcohol,
which depresses the nervous system,
is less perceptible to the drinker
than that of methyl, which causes
injury to the eyesight, she said. Her
report was translated as the basis of
a new educational campaign to show
alcoholic effects.
Start Fight on Armaments
A resolution proposed by Mrs.
May Bell Harper, New Haven,
Conn, was adopted. 1t called for:
Abolition of weapons of aggressive
warfare; an approximate reduction
of one-third of all armies and ma
vies; permanent disarmament
commission; we'll defined consul
tative pact; control of the manufac-
ture and traffic in arms; an EMBARGO

Dog Talks Like Baby; Bye Bye, Mamma
Is Outstanding Part of Her Vocabulary
Distinct SyIIabIeS Uttered by
Boston Bull, with
French Mixed In
BY MARGUERITE YOUNG
Times Special Writer

NEW YORK, July peggy
Bright is her name, but she is called
the dog that talks like baby"
She is 6 years old, a Boston bull
terrier with a little French mixed
in, and. according to all accounts, a
very regular pet.
Cora Bright and Mrs Ada Bright
gave a demonstration of why they
use the title in their modest room
Peggy is like all babies-easier
to understand when you're round
her all the time" explained Mrs
Bright. But We'll see what you
think about her"
And the girl, holding a small
cube of meat above the head of the
slightly nervous, very friendly little
animal, urged, Say Mamma,
Peggy"
Articulation, at Least
The dog said" it, all right, but
it would take Edgar Allan Poe to
explain how 1t was articulated
sound, Individually, and, following
Immediately after the word had been
spoken, it seemed striking
imitation.
1t was, Of course, unlike the sound
of a human voice. 1t was high and
strained, rather like a bum phono-
graph rendition.
Now say My Mamma Peggy"
Miss Bright requested. And the dog
uttered three distinct syllables.
Now say, Bye bye, Mamma Miss
Bright said, giving the dog a cube
of meat. Peggy snarled a thin,
skirlish groWl that seemed to wind
out from her tummy. Her mistress
laughed and urged:
Don't zap; say it, Peggy. Say,
Bye bye, Mamma "
VOweIs Not SO Good
Peggys face puckered frfom fore
head to chin-this seemed the most
remarkable part of the performance,
this apparently conscious effort to
make the correct imitation-and she
said it. Bye bye, Mamma"
The vowels were hardly vowels at
all, but the labials were fairly clear.
There was a difference between
Peggy's M and B sounds, and there
was a definite, accurate imitation of
emphasis.
Almost all her life Peggy has
been pet in the Bright family.
Miss Bright's brother, Hugh, paid
$40 for her when she was three
months old. She was bought from
another boy, to whom some one had
given her. That was in Chicago.
Don't Care About Pedigree
eve think she must be a pedi-
greed dog, but we don't know and
we don't much care" said Mrs.
Bright. Most everybody thinks she
