PLANE NE|NFA|RWAY
. STYM|ES GOLFERS
Motor Fails at 1000 Feet,
Pilot Lands on Rock
Creek Course.

Golfers on the Rock Greek course
found an unnatural hazard yesterday
when . plane, piloted by Milton E.
Anders, came to rest on the ninth
fairway after . forced landing.
The pilot, an insurance estimator.
was showing a friend, AL Norton,
business development representative
who lives at 2100 Nineteenth street
NV. Washington, from the air when
the motor died at an altitude of 1000
feet.
It was Mr.. Norton's first ride and
he was having . fine time until he
noticed his friend switch of the
gas and ignition.
What's that for?" he demanded.
Mr.. Anders told Mr. Norton the
motor had stalled and q landing on
the golf course was their only chance
to come down right side up.
The optimistic passenger thought
he was being "kidded." Even when
the plane. Taylor cub, swooped
down within 500 feet Of the golf course
Mr.. Norton was still unconvinced. Mr..
Anders said.
He yelled fore" to the golfers and
conducted himself after the pattern
Of q small boy on . steeplechase, ac-
cording to Mr. Anders Meanwhile.
the plane glided in circles nearer and
nearer the grassy fairway. As Mr..
Norton realized 1t wasn't joke at
all, he became silent and watched
his friend bring the plane In at 10
miles an hour, 20 miles faster than
the regular landing speed.
Mr.. Anders won't say it was a per-
feet landing, but "it looked beautiful
to me"
After the motor failed the, pilot ex-
planned, he had set the plane at steep
gliding angle to keep it from STALL
ing" or stopping dead, In midair That
was to prevent tailspin.
Il don't know what I'd have done
II there's been . lot of people on the
fafrway." he declared. There were
q few playing the ninth hole and they
certainly were surprised"
Both pilot and passenger emerged
smiling from the plane, although Mr..
Norton was q trifie pale. Undaunted.
however. he climbed back in again
after the pilot made . few hasty re-
pairs. The plane returned to Queens
Chapel Airport and the golfers, some

GRADUATES URGED
To SHARE FAITH
$50 in Catholic U. Senior
Class Told to Bring
Justice to Poor.

The Rev. John Montgomery Cooper,
professor Of anthropology at Catholic
University, yesterday urged the $50
graduates Of the institution to work
toward sharing their faith with the
100, 100000 Americans outside the
Catholic Church!
Speaking at the baccalaureate mass
celebrated in the crypt Of the Ma
tional Shrine Of the Immaculate Con-
ception, Father Cooper divided Amer
leans into four groups. the urban
masses. the rural population, the COL
ored races and the educated classes.
One-third Of the urban masses are
Catholic. he said. but he warned that
there are signs Of restlessness, q rest
lessness that is not far from anti
clericalism and anti-religion among
increasing number"
Urged to Bring Justice.
What Of the two-thirds Of the
urban masses outside the church," he
asked. How far are they coming
under the witchery Of communistic
promises? II . nth to q fourth Of
them continue during these coming
years to be listed among the unem-
ployed and to stand In bread lines, will
they continue to accept their fate
with docility?"
Declaring 1T Is futile to cry out
against Communism and then lie
down in silken ease" he urged the
graduates to do their part in bringing
justice to the poor, 80 the great urban
masses Will know I'VE are not merely
anti this and anti that, but heart and
soul for justice"
He visualized the hope of the church
in the rural population, since. he said,
the urban population is decreasing
from year to year.
Work for Science.
Only quarter Of a million Of the
colored race is Catholic in the United
States, he pointed out as he stressed
the need for Catholics to labor to bring
justice to the Negro in place of the
present manifold and profound in
justices and determinations under
which he suffers"
The educated classes. he said, have
. more kindly attitude toward the
church than ever before. He urged
the graduates to contribute, If possi-
bic, to science because "one piece of
productive work by . Catholic carries
more conviction among scientists as
to the church's sympathy with science
than does = shelf of books written
on the historic contribution of Catf1o-
lies to science"
IT we are to reach the educated
classes, We must be educated our
selves" he declared. I'VE reach q
people only by speaking their language
as we work shoulder to shoulder with
them in common tasks"

MISUSE Of FUNDS
YW.P.A.D DENIED
No Evidence of Political
Activity in Kentucky
Seen by Hunter.
Iy the Associated Press,

~ the Associated Press.
LOUISVILLE, KY. June 13.-How-
ard o. Hunter, assistant works
progress administrator from Washing
ton, denied yesterday that the W.
p. A. was misusing Federal funds for
political activities in Kentucky.
Mr.. Hunter, who was sent to Ken
lucky to make an investigation Of
charges by Brady Stewart, campaign
manager for Gov. A. B. Happy
Chandler, who is opposing Senator
Alben w. Barley for the Democratic
senatorial nomination, stated:
The misuse Of Federal relief funds
for political purposes by the w. p.
A. could only come specifically, first
by actually discharging, or threaten
ing to discharge, needy employed peo-
pie working for the w. p. A.. on ac-
count Of their political faith or votes,
or second, by deliberately employing
unnecessary or ineligible people on the
w. P. A. in order to pad the rolls
in favor Of some political candidate,
or third, by forcing w. P. A. en-
ployes to contribute money to po-
litical campaign.
Il am convinced, after investiga-
ton, that the State and district ad-
ministrative officials Of the w. P. A.
in Kentucky have repeatedly made it
clear to w. P. A. workers that their
jobs in no way depend upon who
they vote for in any primary or elec-
ton. 1t has been made plain by
these oficials to all foremen and su-
pervisors of projects that any fore
man or supervisor will be promptly
dismissed upon any evidence of such
threats to project workers"
Mr.. Hunter said he had investi-
gated the charges and had been un-
able to confirm either the general
statements of political activity by the
w. P. A. or any Of the specific in
cidents charged to the relief organi-
Eation.
