HELPS FOR
HOUSEWIVES

Summer is a good time for the
children to entertain. 1t brightens
their, vacations and helps them to
acquire poise in entertaining their
guests.
If the party food is simple there
will be less difficulty in carrying
dishes. A large table set on. the
lawn can be used to serve from.
Frequently the guest list contains
the names of many children, but
the task of serving them must be
handled by a few adults. In that
case it may be advisable to have
the boys wait on the table for the
first course and let the girls serve
the ice cream and cake.
Always arrange an outdoor party
SO it may be brought indoors quick
ly in case of ra.n.

Macy Plane Forced Do,un On
Gulf During Recent Flight
from Juneau to " estWdrd

A touch OF real going to sea was
experienced by the Naval Aircraft
squadrons on the recent flight
from Juneau to Cordova, according
10 Lieut. Commander J. M. Shoe
maker, Wing Commander in charge
Of the flight.
One Of the last planes to leave
juneau, 7-P-2 was forced down in
the Gull of Alaska several miles
below Yakutat when a wing gaso-
line tank vent line worked loose,
and after several improvised re-
pairs the engines quit entirely. For
tunately the water was reasonably
calm and the dead stick landing
was normal Repairs were affected
by the efficient naval mechanics in
20 minutes when the plane took
off and proceeded along the coast.
The flight of the first nine planes
to Cordova was uneventful Low
clouds were encountered west of
Malespina Glacier, but the hori-
zontal visibility continued fair and
the planes landed at Cordova at
O'Clock in the evening, mooring
along the Cordova waterfront. The
personnel went aboard the tenders
Avocet and Swan.
Excellent Time
Planes 7-P-2 and 7-P-3, which
had been delayed leaving Juneau
when engine trouble developed in
7-P-l before the takeoff, left here
forty minutes after the first squad
ron. They made excellent time out
through Icy Straits and past Cape
Spencer. After the latter point
they climbed to an altitude of 5000
feet to take advantage of follow
ing wind at that altitude. The wind
condition was determined by OBJ
Servation of the cloud formation.
They continued along the majestic
Fairweather mountains at a good
clip.
1t was after passing Lituya Bay
that the men in T-P-2 noticed that
a wing gasoline tank vent line had
worked loose and was dangling be-
low the upper wing. This was fish
ed into the hull by mechanic
and all was thought to be serene
except that some gasoline was leak
ing out OF the wing tank. Half
way between Lituya and Yakutat
Bays, the engines sputtered and
one stopped. This meant that one
Of the wing tanks, from which
bfuel flows into the engine after
being pumped up into the wing
tank from the huh by an engine-
driven fuel pump, was completely
empty.
AIT In Hull
Well trained for any emergency
the mechanics who were aft in the
hull, manned the hand fuel pumps
promptly and both engines picked
up again as soon as the empty
gravity tank received some fuel
from the huh. 1t was thought
that the plane could complete the
flight to Cordova by continued
hand pumping, but nevertheless. it
WAS decided to land In Yakutat Bay
to replace the wing tank vent line
and Admiral A. w. johnson. aboard
the Wright, was notified.
1t was sim q few miles below
Yakutat that the engines finally
quit, and the training and clear
thinking of both pilot and mechan-
ic was put to the successful test
OF landing In the Gulf, repairing
the plane and taking off once
more.
7-P-i. which was hoisted aboard
the Wright in Juneau, was re-
paired and put overheard at Yaku-
tat Bay. from where it was flown
to Cordova. with Admiral johnson
on board. TO rejoin the other planes

There is more strength In the
wealth OF youth than in the bank

That Is the basic philosophy OF
Miss Viola lima. dynamic attractive
twenty-three-y year-old leader OF the
American Youth movement. and
editor OF Modern Youth, the mag.
azine which Is called the voice of
the younger generation. The slogan
OF this magazine Is "no author can
be over thirty"
Miss lima quite by accident ar

when four different student grou. $
were holding conferences. She at
tended each conference In order to
Eei the ideas OF various groups
"The interest of the students In
national and international affairs Is
important she stated, because Il
shows that American youth Is awak.

"But a youth movement In Amer.
lea must not depend upon students
They never get anywhere while they
cling 90 their studeut-like grudGes
and fight among themselves.
They are bound by college walls
They lack the intelligence to see
that all youth Is as lost and frus.
trated as they are. The noncollegi.
ate youth has a stamina. and com
prehenslon OF reality which the stu.
dent lacks. In order 10 accomplish
anything, all classes of American
young men and women must band
together.
'tn European countries all lead

in America because American young
people are not organized. Their
lack Of organization explains their
