 TOLEDO, Aug. 12.-Glass diving bnards, Which used to be in a class with spun glass ukelele strings and fur-liiied ssiap pitchers, actftally can be made today.
 Their manufacture, however, has been accomplished merely as a means of demonstrating flexibility of the new product. The spring boards are made of glass tenperei so it will bend. This is done by heating Nofdinary plate glass until it is almost plasytic and then cooi- ing 1t suddenly with an air blast.
 The abrupt cooling sets up nigh strains in the glass These form a skin on the surface, which appears to pull in different direction than the strains inside.
 This method of tempering plate glass has been in use in Europe for several yeats. An American firm has obtained use of the European licenses.
 ftfis claimed for the tempering thatfy glass becomes five times stronger, will bend beyond the breaking point of other glass, can be twisted, is itnpervious to sud- defi teff1peratufe changes, and when broken does not shatter, but crum- bles into innumerable pieces not particularly jagged.
 This glass cannot be cut to de- sired size A glass cutter sinking deep enough to penetrate the outer skin causes the whole sheet to crin1ble This is due to the tre- rrendous pull between the skin and inner portions of the tempered glass.
 < One of the tests to which it is claimed the glass may be subjected is that a leather sack, containing II pounds of shot, dropped six feet upon an inch-thick sheet bounces off without breaking the glass.

 Using a quick concrete preparation, pouring work on forms was started opposite the entrance to the Juneau Lumber Mills this morning. At the other end of the street, near the Alaska Juneau Gold Mining Company office, work men were rushing to completion the pouring forms.
 If steady pour is possible and the work is completed tomorrow, then that half of the street will be blocked off for only five days, instead of the usual 28 due to the quickest" cement used. Then, that half of the roadway will be opened and work will start on the other half.

 PAA LOCKHEED
Prominent Man in Fishing Industry Also Inter- :
 ested in Mining

4 J. MI Emel and his son J IT Emei of seattles arrived Sunday aboard the PAA Lockheed Electra from Fairbanks with Pilots Jerry Jones and William Knox at the controls. ita lc n ' Eniel, who is a director of the Alaska Sunset Mine at Nome and is President Of the Eniel Packing i Company at Valdez, is returning from tour of inspection of var ious mining developments in the 1 Interior. He is very much i'm l pressed by. the efficiency Of com mercial aviation in Alaska.
 Emel and his son who arrived in Valdez early in July, brought | their car with them from Seattle and drove over the Richardson Highway to Fairbanks with stops at the Nabesna mine and other lesser developments. From Fair banks they travelled by rail to Nenana and by Yukon River boat to St. Michael and Nome. On the return journey they traveled by plane from Nome to Juneau. They will sail for Seattle aboard the Alaska tonight.
 Nabesna Mine
 i The Nabesna mine, under the direction of M. T.. Hunt of the Cyanamid Company, is working out a recovery process which will boost recovery from T per cent under the old process, to 90 per oent when the new process be- comes effective, Emel said The new process will also reduce concen- tration from to 1. At the present time about 60 tons day are going through the mill.
 I Conditions in Fairbanks are very good, Emel reported, and Nome is recovering rapidly from adverse conditions occasioned by the fire. It looks to me like Nome has a I pretty good future" Emel said, with the price of gold what it is, \ expect to see several new dredg- ing companies in that district with in the next few years. This year there is a new dredge beyond the hills in the Solomon River coun- try, operated by the Casa de Poga Mining Company. under the super vision of A. c. Stuart. The Ham mon Company has dredges work ing four miles from our ground (Alaska Sunset Mine) and there is q dredge on osborne Creek
 IT Days Vs. 4 Hours
 Seventeen days were required to make the trip by river boat from Fairbanks to Nome, and the re- turn journey was accomplished in less than four hours by plane Actual elapsed time, without re- gard to the loss of two hours on the east flight, for the trip to Nome to Juneau was 23 hours, Emel, who has never before ridden in q plane, and his son, left Nome at 3 pm. Saturday and arrived in Juneau at 4 pm. Sunday.
 T predict wonderful future for aviation in Alaska Emel said, T believe it is just a matter of time until it will be possible to step into a plane in Seattle and be in Nome the next day
 Emel was very much interested in the view of Lake Lebarge, the whitehorse Rapids and Dyea trail afforded from the plane enroute to Juneau. He mentioned trip mada over that route by his brother Pete Emil in 1898. Pete, Emel has a Burro on that trip. The burro shot White horse Rapids lashed in the bow oi a boat Emel remarked about the differehce in modes of travel then and nov.

her own story from the witness
stand today in an attempt to
prove she did not help in the
$4,000 ransom abduction.
The, slender, nervous little
woman walked to the witness
chair q few minutes after court
opened. Her voice was calm and
was pitched so low the court
room became silent as all strained
to hear.
She opened her testimony
with a story of how Thomas
Robinson. jr., the former asylum
inmate, shot her in the leg a
short time after they were mar.
ried. She testified:
81 told my family it was
accidental, but he did it pur-
DOsely during an argument"

ship.
Mrs. Robinson told how she met
her future husband while he was
a student at Vanderbilt University
and how they were married in q
Nashville church five months
later.
In March of 1929, about a year
after their marriage, she related,
she read in the papers that her
husband was in trouble in connec-
ton with a jewel robbery.
Robinson was taken to the Cen
trail State Hospital for the Insane
at first for two weeks and then,
after he had been adjudged in
sane, for II months. After another
three months at the Western

Robinson had him released: Her
child, Jimmie, was born while the

was moving to a cheaper apart
ment. She packed their bags and

Virginia, realizing the task set

on blocking for the last week.
The coaches, seeking to perfect
its technique in this all-important

Harry Martin, Bus Male and
