flooded his system with poison
which settled in his left arm about
four inches below the shoulder.
Grove absorbed so much poison
into his system that it will re-
quire the rest of this year to re-

ME Mack sold the Red Sox a sick
pitcher for a kings ransom. This
is denied on all fronts. Grove left

in perfect condition. It happened
in the wanderings of this writer
that I was in Sarasota the day
that Grove discovered his arm

BALLOON TAKE-OFF.
TO Be REHEARSED.
Miniature of Giant Ship to
Get Test in Black
Hills.

A rehearsal with 35,000-cubic-
foot balloon Of the coming National
Geographic Society Army Air Corps
stratosphere fight take-off may take
place today or tomorrow from the
"stratocamp" near Rapid City, S. Oak,
according to telegraphic advices to
the society's headquarters here.
Preparations for the trial are based
m forecasts of clear weather and low
winds issued by the special weather
station at the stratocamp, in a shell
tered natural bowl in the Black Hills.
It was emphasized that, while the
trial date can not be definite this far
in advance, the immediate weather
prospects are the best since the camp
was established.
The trial flight will begin early In
the afternoon. 1t will involve the in
f1ation of a 35,000-cubic-foot test bal
loon which is miniature OF the
riant 5000, O,OO0-cubic-foot stratosphere
bag, with the same type of rigging.
Troopers from Fort Meade, S. OAK,
will ride to the camp to participate IN
the rehearsal and to become familiar
with the duties awaiting them when
they assist in getting the worlds larg-
est balloon into the air for its sky
ward journey.
After the drill with the 35,000-foot
bag the hydrogen used for this pur-
pose will be transferred to a 10000
cubic-foot bag and back to storage,
and at sunrise the following day the
19.OOO-foot balloon will be used for a
test hop from the bowl. Maj. William
E. Kepner, pilot, and Capt. Orvil A.
Anderson, alternate pilot of the strato-
sphere balloon, probably will make the
test fight, the purpose of which is to
study the effect Of air currents above
the rim of the cliffs about the strato-
camp.
