" y ANSAS CITY, MO-, ApI1I w.
II Flying hostess-what romance
n and adventure that name sug-
i y gests! It was only six years
ago that women entered this new and
interesting field; now an airplane
hostess is a taken-for granted part OF
passenger ships on every major line.
She is on the plane to make passen-
gers happy. comfortable and satisfied.
While on duty, service is her one aim
and object-and graciously does she
carry out this ideal. She has been
trained to this disciplined, pleasing
efficiency as hospital nurse-for
every hostess must be graduate, reg
iStered nurse. In addition she must
have intelligence, tact and charm.
Because of the confined space and
the intimate atmosphere Of an air.
plane, there exists fellowship between
passengers and hostess that has no
counterpart in any other type OF
travel, and many friendships are
formed on transcontinental trips.
Must Establish Friendship.
To begin with, the hostess, because
she acts as conductor and collects
tickets, carries the passenger manifest
on which is the name. starting point
and destination Of every passenger.
One of her designated duties Is to ad-
dress each passenger by name, estab-
fishing in his mind in the very be-
ginning a feeling of being among
| friends.
Another Of her duties is to pro-
vide conversation-the passenger may
choose his own subject-and point out
places of interest along the route, a
duty which certainly, from the passen-
gers point of view, contains all the
elements Of "the beginning Of beau-
tiful friendship"
These girls who qualify for hostesses
must be petite; weight, 100 to 118
pounds; height, feet to feet inches;
age, 20 to 26 years-all Of that Is in the
specifications. Add to that the rigid
physical examination each must UNDER
| go four times every year, and you are
assured of the bloom and Joy that 60
with perfect health.
| Must Spot First Trippers."
An early duty of the hostess on every
run Is to spot the "frst trippers." I"
These are the passengers who are
likely to become frightened when the
plane banks in making a curve-so
the hostess explains that 1t is similar
to a motor road that is banked on q
curve. She explains, too, that air
planes ride on solid air Just as trains
run on solid ground and ships on
solid water-therefore a little rough
ness can sometimes be expected and
accepted as normal. She explains
that the engines are sirworthy, and
that the plane can climb fully loaded
even If one Of the engines Is shut of.
Having dispelled some Of the mis-
conceptions that make first trippers"
afraid, she turns to making them
comfortable. She takes their coats
and hats, dispose Of their small
luggage and packages, gives them
magazines and newspapers, explains
high points In the geography Of the
trip-and by then it Is probably time
| to eat.
Travel by air seems to make every
body hungry, 50 meal time 5000 feet
or more up, going $50 miles or more

RADIO BEAM HELD
KEY TO AIR CRASH
Federal Probers Move to
Pittsburgh to Seek
Further Data.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
PITTSBURGH, April 10.-Federal
investigators moved their hearings to
Pittsburgh today to see If they can
learn what caused the airliner Sun
Racer to get 80 miles of its radio
beam course and crash In the noun
tains near Uniontown, with the loss
Of II lives.
The men making the inquiry evolved
a tentative theory that Pilot Otto
Ferguson realized In the last few
moments he was lost and at the time
Of the disaster was trying to raise his
ntne-ton ship over the 2,700-foot
Vountain.
The first phase of the inquiry was
completed at ,Uniontown with the
testimony Of dozen mountain resi-
dents on what they discovered Tues
day after climbing Chestnut Ridge to
the spot where the big transport plane
crumpled and burned.
They also told of the heroism Of
little Nellie Granger, hostess of the
plane, who struggled through the
woods for miles to reach a telephone.
Then she insisted on going back to
care for the two badly hurt survivors.
Mrs. Hilda Ellenstein of Newark, N. j.,
and C. C. Challinor of Cleveland.
Miss Granger, who suffered greatly
from shock, was ready to leave the
Uniontown Hospital today and prob
ably will testify at the hearings. Maj.
r. w. Schroeder, member Of the in
quiry board created by Secretary OF
Commerce Roper, said the 22-year-old
hostess has several bits Of technical
information which may be helpful.
He added:
"The technical information Is
much more valuable now than the
details Of where and how the ship
crashed"
South Trimble. jr., heads the Com
merce Department board. Col. H. T
Hartner, chief investigator for the
United States Senate Aviation Dis
aster Committee, and his assistant,
Charles Payne, also are taking part.
Hartner, in saying Ferguson ap-
parently got his first intimation he
was lost when a cloud bank opened
to show unfamiliar terrain, asserted
"One of the technical problems to
be solved by hearings in Pittsburgh
will be to determine what caused him
to turn south instead Of north, as
well as how he was so far off the
beam course.
TESTS made in two similar type
ships showed this beam to be func.
tioning perfectly"
Meanwhile, Senator Copeland
Democrat, of New York, head Of the
Aviation Disaster Committee, said ir
Washington testimony at previous
hearings was that the beam service
in the Pittsburgh section was ''un-
reliable" Copeland said the wit.
nesses were Jack Frye, president oi
r. w. A., which operated the Sur
Racer, and Jay A. Mount, formerly
with the Bureau of Air Commerce.
Copeland said full investigation
Of the Sun Racer disaster was ordered
and added:
without knowing anything Of thI
crash, the natural inference is tina
the pilot lost the beam or the bean
was improperly directed. If it wer'
the latter, some means must be founc
Immediately to prevent another crash
of this sort"

Times Haze Changed

Fair time is drawing near, but Moth
ers preserves won't be on display. AT
least there seems to be little activity in
the kitchen. Time was when Mother
spent many hours preparing to enter
her preserves and silently and at the
same time silently praying that her en-
tries would win a blue ribbon. And out
in the hen house, Dad was looking over
his flock and trying to decide which
fowl would make the best show.
Yes. times have changed Mother
now buys her preserves in the grocery
store, and the time originally spent in
the kitchen is now wiled away in the
beauty parlor. AS for Dad, he's tin

Tuppen pitched and SO Key
West lost.
Those few words tell the whole
story of she game the locals play
ed Thursday night against the top
seeded Fort Lauderdale team in
the semi-finals of the East Coast
Diamondbali Elimination Tourna-
ment at the Miami Stadium. @
Only one hit was garnered off
Tuppen's deliveries and that was
made by Monk" Kerr, a drive to
center in the eighth inning, which
was almost taken by Hugh Wick
ers.
The shutout victory, Thursday
night ran the speedballist's con-
.ecutive scoreless innings to 20.
He struck out 10 Key Westers,
bringing his total to 81 for the
three games played up until that
time.
The scores of Lauderdale's trio
of victories in this tournament
were: 18 to 0, 1 to 0 and 3 to o.
Mccarthy and Lunn were the
only other locals to- reach first
base in the game. The latter got
on in the fourth and the former
in the fifth, 10th on walls.
Arthur "Ah All" Lunn pitched
an excellent game for Key West,
allowing but five safeties. Two
of the three runs marked up by
Laudcrdale were due to home
runs. Vickers connected for a
round trip in the first frame and
Pitcher, Tuppen knocked a circuit
blow in the fourth frame. William
Gates wild throw to second scor-
ed McNeece in the third for the
other run. Otherwise, Lunn had
the opposition eating out of his
hand.
The Key West pitcher struck
out three batters and did not walk
any. Tuppen issued two free
passes.
No player on the Fort Lauder
dale team was able to garner
more than one hit off Lunn's de-
livery. After the fourth frame,
the local twirler had everything
his way but the game, as the re-
suits show, was already lost.

the boys spirits were somewhat
dampened by their heart-breaking
defeat at the hands of the Fort
Lauderdale diamondballers, every
one reports they had a wonderful
time during their stay in the
Magic City.
William Gates also returned
to Key West yesterday. He COM
pleted the season with the San
ford baseball club, of the Florida
State League, and joined the local
team in Miami for Thursday
nights game. The addition of
Gates, who played at third base,
moved Joe Hale to second and
Kerr to rightfield, with Clarke be-
ing dropped from the club. Will
liam committed the only error of
the game, which allowed one run
to score. He was credited with
five assists.
Old friendships were renewed
during the time the boys were in
Miami. Many formr Key West
ers witnessed the games and root
ed for the local club. A number
of them hated to see the Key
Westers return home and many
wished they could accompany the
players here. However, circum-
stances, over which they have no
control, forces the former resi-
dents to remain in the cities in
which they are now living.
The protest by Coca-Cola was
dropped after a few certain facts
were brought to light. The
Soda Water boys Were Kicking be-
cause Mingy Ubieta played on the
team, claiming that he was not a
resident of this city and that he
was signed up by Hollywood. 1t
was shown that a number of 9TH
er teams were in the same circum-
stances.
"Slim" Albury, the boys say,
lived up to his title as the teams
comedian, with "Wrinkley Bill"
Ingraham running him a close Sec
ond.
The locals have nothing but
words of praise for the pitching
of Tuppen. He's simply too good.
1t is reported that he draws sal
airy of $50 a week just for pitch
ing a few games each week dur.
ing the diamondball season.
The highlight of the trip oc-
Cured in the first game the Key
Westers played. Two rallies, one
in the seventh and the other in the
eighth, Melted ten runs, which
won the game. This made the
boys feel great and put them on
edge for their next battle.
A large number of Miamians
were roofing for Key West in the
game Thursday night.
=
Protectu and Lauderdale, the
two top teams, began a three
game series last night for the East
Coast championship. The former
club has two Key Westers on their
line-up-Cheta Baker and Esmond
Albury. AS the local outfit has
been eliminated, Key West fans
are hoping Protectu takes the
