Pair Of Spanish
AUiatorS Missing

MEXICO CITY, June 81. UP
Airplanes, soldiers and ships went
cut at dawn today to search for two
Spanish aviators, missing on a 1000
mile flight from Havana to Mexico
City after conquering the Atlantic
on the longest over-water flight
ever made.
A crowd that was estimated at
10000, and which maintained a
watch for the flyers at Valbuena
Field for many hours despite a
soaking rain, dwindled this morning
to 100 including airport officials.
1t was believed the aviators, Cap
tain Mariana Barberan and Lieut.
enant Joaquin Vollar Of the Span
ish air force, must have landed
somewhere between Villa Hermosa,
in Tabasco state, 70 miles up the
Tabasco river from the coast, and
Minatitlan, 100 miles up the coast
of the Gulf of Campeche, in Vera
Cruz state.

INCREASE IN
STUDERAKER
PRODUCTION

SOUTH BEND, Ind, June 81.
(SpeciaD - Contrary to seasonal
trends of previous years, the pro-
duction of Studebaker and Rockne
automobiles during June will ex-
coed that of May The increase
will total more than 1000 cars. 1t
IS noteworthy that this is the third
successive month that Studebaker
production schedules have been eX-
banded over the proceeding month.
These announcements were made
here today by George D. Keller,
sales manager of The Studebaker
Sales Corporation Of America.
"Our production schedule for
June called for $500 automobiles, -
said Keller. These cars and more
have been ordered by our dealers.
Therefore, our original production
mas been increased and will exceed
5000 automobiles. Our June pro-
duction will exceed May by 1000
cars. 1t will also exceed produc-
ton for June, 1882, by a substan-
tial volume. Dealer retail deliver
les are keeping pace with produc-
ton and dealer stocks remain very
low. This midsummer increase
IL sales is unusual and is definite
evidence that business is increas-
ing.
Our increase in production this
spring has been consistent. April
production was ahead of March
and May production showed a gain
over April
'There are now $500 people
working in our plants. Further ev-
!dence OF the business revival is
found in the fact that 1873 new
dealers have joined the Studebaker
and Rockne ranks stree March 81. -

Illegal To Seine
For Catfish Here

The FL Centre Chamber of Com
merce was gratified to learn from
the state division of fish and game
that it is illegal to seine for cat
fish in this district and no further
legislation is necessary to protect
the channel catfish which seem to
abound in the canals and rivers of
Imperial Valley, according to Rob-
ert Hays, secretary manager.
John L. Farley, executive officer
of the division of fish and game,
stated in a communication to the
local chamber that N. B. Scofield,
chief of the state bureau of COM
mercial fisheries, reports that the
channel catfish have an excellent
start in the fresh water in this 10
cality and are increasing rapidly
according to his investigation
These fish, of course, cannot be
expected to exist in Salton Sea as
they will not live in salty or brack-
ish water.
Farley states that, in addition to
the plan to plant additional striped
bass and to experiment with silver
salmon in Saltona Sea, the depart
ment is investigating other fish
which might do we'll in that body
of water and during the course of
the year expects to make some ex-
perimental paintings under condi-
tionS where the results can be OBJ
served and the department can de-
termine properly the possibilities of
success
