SHY BRIDE SAYS
Mitzi Green in Match-Mak-

BY GEORGE TUCKER

NEW YORK, Oct. 18.-No less
than an 18-karat bride shyly con-
fessed to Mitzi Green that song
she sang in Babes in Arms" prob
ably was responsible for her mar
riage.
1t was Where or When and
the excited girl explained that she
and her young man fell in love
the night they heard Mitzi intro
duce the song.
This Il confess" mood crept over
them when they visited the YER
sailles club on the honeymoon, and
as Miss Green is starring there
now they told her the story and
asked for a repeat. The Mitzi one
says the role of match maker,
which she never played before, is
simply dandy.
The Scots on Broadway at least.

her She is wealthy and owns a
string of laundries.

town he occasionally ran into her
His emotional reactions after
such an encounter propted the tune.

tie salesman came in today with a
gawdy little number in purple

full except for two things = we
don't like purple, and in another
box we discovered at least 20 others
just like the one he had saved"

back to the present.

Gen. Mauborgne Becomes Major General and Chief
Signal Officer.
N ARMY ohicer who Is years

A N ARMY oficer who Is years
~ ago participated in the first
n airplane-to-ground radio COM
munication and who since
has gained world fame in the radio
field today was promoted to the Office
of chief signal off1cer of the Army
with the rank of major general. He
is Joseph o. Mauborgne, until today
director of the aircraft radio labora-
tory, Wright Field, Ohio, with the
grade of colonel.
Today's promotion came as the
climax of notable carer in the
Army Signal Corps and in the world
field of radio development. Gen. Maui
borgne also has demonstrated his
versatility as an artist, using oils.
pastels. dry point and etching tools
with equal facility.
The promotion of Col Mauborgne
to the ranking post in the Signal
Corps recalled to- older Army officers
some of his early experiments in the
field of military communications, I'M
portant among which were his efforts
to adapt radio to aircraft.
In 1912 the new general, then a
lieutenant. installed a radio set in
an Army airplane. devised the an
tenna and aided in the first air-to-
ground radio communication in his
tory. according to War Department
records. The first communication be-
tween air and ground was conducted
at Fort Riley. Kans., in October of
that year Brig. Gen. Henry H.
Arnold. assistant chief of the Army
Air Corps, then a lieutenant, was
pilot OF the airplane. and the first
set was operated in the air by Col
Follett Bradley, now member of the
general headquarters air force staff,
Langley Field, Va.
Lieut.. Arnold had flown one Of the
Army's IL airplanes to Fort Riley
so that Lieut.. Mauborgne might in
stall quenched-spark radio set
which he had assembled in an effort
to establish air-to-ground communi-
cations. The experiments were sue
cessful, Lieut.. Mauborgne being able
to receive clearly messages sent by
Lieut.. Bradley from the airplane
These tests were followed immedi-
ately by adjustment of artillery fire
by radio from the airplane, opening
a new and vital phase of aviation
cooperation.
In the Fall Of 1914 Lieut. Maui
borgne for the first time succeeded
in establishing two-way radio COM
munication between an airplane and
the ground. The airplane was flown
by Lieut.. H. A. Dargue, now a colonel
in the Air Corps.

BIG GREEN CREW WINS FIRST RACE
Williams Loses First COl- lege Event on Corl-
 necticut River

Hanover, N. H., May l.-(UP)- Success marked Dartmouth's row. ing revival today after its varsity oarsmen triumphed over Williams college by 3-4 lengths on the Con- necticut river yesterday over a one mile course.
 More than 5000 lined t, banks of the river to watch Dartmouth in its first crew race in some 60 years. It was the first intercollegiate race in some 60 years. It was the first intercollegiate race ever held on the Connecticut river course.
 The crews were forced to row the entire course upstream before the start of the race which was delayed 40 minutes while the oarsmen rested. Dartmouth was away fast and held the lead throughout, cov- ering the distance in 4:56.
 Dartmouth's new boathouse, do- mated by former Governor Alvan T. Fuller of Massachusetts, was dedi- cated before the race. The two Dartmouth shells were christened Enfield and Old Nassau, the latter in honor of Princeton which has aided the rowing revival here.
