Mistaken Signal
Blamed in Death
Of Boy Diver

ANN ARBOR, Mich, July 20
U.N.S0.-A mistake in signals
was blamed today for the death
Of William E. Brakeman, Is, son
of. the religious counsellor of the
University of Michigan. The boy
was trapped 80 feet under water
in a diving helmet made of an old
paint can, lengths of rubber hose
and a rotary air pump.
Sheriff'S deputies said Blake
mans companions mistakenly
pulled the helmet from the youths
head while his feet, weighted
down with leaden boots, were
stuck 30 feet under water in Whit
more Lake yesterday afternoon.
The homemade helmet was
made by William Stevens, at
whose cottage here Brakeman,
John Hildinger, William Baldwin
and Eric Sutton were visiting. It
is similar to other helmets made
by amateur divers in the district
and had been used frequently.

40, 1000 Spectators Gather to See
Historic Battle Reenacted
BY A STAFF CORRESPONDENT

BY A STAFF COkRESPONDEN
BULL RUN BATTLEFIELD, Va,
July 21.-History was relived to-
day as the Blue and the Gray met
on this historic battlefield, just rs
years to the day since the first
major engagement in the Civil
War, the First Battle of Manassas
or the Battle of Bull Run, as some
historians term the engagement.
But today the meeting is sham
battle. The men taking part, wear
ing the Blue of the North or the
Gray Of the South, serve under the
Stars and Stripes, and the Ameri-
can flag floats from the summit
Of Henry's Hill, where conferred
one of the greatest battles of any
war.
10000 Are Expected
Perfect weather greeted the van
guard of a crowd which is ex-
pected to exceed 10000. Clouds
flecked the blue skies, tempering
the heat, while a light breeze
swept the hillside once swept by
bullets, grape-Shot and canister.
AS the sun rose this morning
over the rolling hills, it seemed
that the pages of history had veri-
tably been turned back three-quar-
tiers of a century.
There on the crest of Henry's
Hill, the first rays glinted on the
barrels of heavy field guns whose
black muzzles were ready to pour
out fire on any enemy.
Shelter tents were pitched in
strategic points, with the soldiers
getting their last rest before the
battle" while sentries, bayonetS
fixed, patrolled their. posts.
AS the sun rose, a bugle sounded
reveille and there was a stir as Of
ficers and men rolled out. The
smell of smoke came from field
kitchens and soon the air was
fragrant with the smell Of frying
bacon and coffee.
Marines for North
The forces of the North, rep
resenting the Army of the Po-
tomac which was commanded by
Gen. Irwin Mcdowell, occupied
a position between Blackburn's
and McLean's fordS over that
little stream of Bull Run, almost
the identical position where Nc
Dowells forces spent those last
hours before the battle. But
these men wearing the Blue today
are members Of the Fifth United
The Washington times., 1936-07-21

States Marines, commanded by
Col. c. D. Miller.
Just across Sudley Road, a
narrow. rough, dusty road which
was taken and retaken a dozen
times during the desperate fight
ing rs years ago today, are
camped the "Confederates," 1000
men of the Twelfth Infantry,
Third Cavalry and Sixteenth
Field Artillery.
Leading the infantrymen is
Major Stonewall Jackson. no de-
scendant, but a namesake Of the
great Southern leader whose
courage turned the tide of battle
when it was running against the
South, and who turned what
seemed crushing defeat into q
victory.
The battlefield is only IS miles
from Washington, over splendid
highways, and the crowds started
early. Cars from almost every
State in the nation were on the
parking lots. and the grandstands
erected for the occasion were fill
ing rapidly hours before the start
of the ceremonies.
Mayor WOOdring, 80, On Hand
In the crowd was a Sprinkling
Of white-haired men-men who
had worn the Blue or the Gray in
those days of 81 to IS. A few.
old men now, had actually fought
in that great battle of three quar-
tiers of a century ago. Among
these was Harry Woodring. 80
years old, still mayor of his home
town of Danville, Va.
Others in the crowd were meE
who had lived in the vicinity Of
the battlefield and as small boys
climbed trees to watch the fight
ing. Still others had been driven
down from Washington with their
families to watch the trout" Of
the Southern forces and the crush
ing Uf the rebellion. For with a
powerful army, the Union forces
had expected victory, and many
drove down to watch the battle.
The plan of battle has been de-
clared by military experts to have
been perfectly worked out. The
Union forces, starting before day
light, struck at the left flank of
the Confederates and drove them
back.
Thus far the plan worked out.
Fording Bull Run, the Union
forces struck and drove back the
Confederates, until JackSon's bri-
gade stood like stone WALL and
turned the tide of battle.
Guns Again to Roar
That first battle ragged for six
hours, and over many miles of
territory. But today's reenactment
will take only an hour and a half
and will center around Henry's
Hill, where the Confederates cap
tured the Union batteries, then
turned the guns against the men
in Blue, as regiment after regi-
ment from the North attempted to

to pieces.
AS the shambattle RACES today
field guns and mortars will roar,
rifles will crack and bayonetS and
sabers of the cavalry will glisten
as charge and nter-charge are
made.
AS the troops early assumed
their positions on the hill there
were cheers as the Stars and Bars
Of the lost cause" were seen, car
ried by the color bearers. And
there were cheers, too, for the
Stars and Stripes borne by the
men in blue.
It was an interested crowd
which gathered to match the re-
enactment of this battle, but a
crowd that sensed the solemnity
of the occasion. For this day
serves to rededicate this battle
field, where hundreds Ut men on
both sides were killed and
wounded as 10000 troops engaged
in the battle.

Among the interested spectators
were several hundred CCC men
who have been working in the
battlefield for several months, re

The reenactment today is staged
through the cooperation Of the

GOODWIN TALKS

Members of the Optimists Club
Of Washington today were taken
behind the scenes of the current
Spanish political upheaval by Earl
Goodwin, The Washington Times
radio news commentator and White
House correspondent.
The inside story of the revolt
was related by Mr.. Goodwin at the
luncheon meeting of the OptimiSts
this noon at the Mayflower Hotel.
Goodwin, whose honey" style
of news presentation has become
familiar to hundreds of radio
listeners during the past year, is
probably as well posted on the
pros and cons of the efforts of
the conservatives to unseat the
Spanish radicals as anyone in the
Capital.
