Few Aviators Attain
Highest Gliding Rank

There Is no sport which Is as sclen-
tlhc as motorless flight. The sue
cussful soaring pilot must not only
be skillful In handling his plane but
also needs to be something OF a
meteorologlst. He must have cour-
age and patience to a high degree
and must be a thorough and pains
taking student of his avocatlon.
1t takes years to become an ex
pert; the group ranking as such mum
bers only ten in the world. A special
rating has been made for them-the
ID license-which Is given for the
FOLLOWING accomplishments a total of
over FIVE soaring hours; a distance
flight of at least 80 kilometers; an
altitude flight to 1000 or more
meters above the starting point.
O'Meara and Schempp are two

Cannot FOretell
Sex of Offspring
Many Ideas of Control Are
Without Confirmation;
Chance Rules.

Control and determination of sex
In animals Is at present impossible.
What the future holds as to the
possibility of sex-determination liz
also a deep mystery.
The interest Is natural, since the
sexes apparently arrive by chance
while much economic advantage, as
In dairy cows and laying hens,
would accrue If sex could be pre-
determined at will.
Many theories of control have
been offered, and rejected, when not
supported by scientific study. One
of the earliest theories related ser
OF the offspring to the weather. A
north wind at the time OF concep-
ton was supposed TO bring females
and the south wind males. This
may be right occasionally but with
enough cases half of the offspring
r male and half female regardless
of wind direction.
Occasionally filters Of pigs are
born, all male or all female, or q
COW In a long series of calves pro-
duces all OF u sex. These are
results which attract attention be-
cause Of their strangeness or rar-
ity, the workings of chance, and
there Is an even chance that a given
offspring will be male.

SHIPS ARE RAIDED

SEATTLE, May 14.-After strik- ing longshoremen raided eleven ships last Saturday afternoon to drag non-union workers ashore, Mayor John F. Dore declared in 100 extra police for strike duty but said this force was not sufficient and he would ask Gov. Clarence ID. Martin for state troops and also the state highway patrol.
 Armed guards turned back strik- ing longstoremen at the Bell Street Terminal when they at tempted to board the Grace liner Santa Rosa to drag off non-union workers. The strikers previously battered down the doors of the pier and swept aside the small handful of policemen to gain en- trance to the dock. Work was halted on the Santa Rosa.
 Strikers Augmented
 The Seattle strikers were aug mented by the influx of several hundred longshoremen from Tac- oma and Everett.
 The police said the greatest dif- ficulty was not with the long, shoremen but with avowed Com munists who trooped to the dock and tried to incite pickets to vio- lence.
 Late last Saturday members of the Waterfront Employers Asso- ciation met hurriedly and decided to call a halt on all operations on the waterfront until protection of workers could be obtained.
 Gov. Martin reached Spuokana late Saturday night and he said then he saw no necessity at the present time for calling out of National Guards as he believed local authorities were able to handle the situation.
