Lindbereh Stresses Need
For Aviution Research
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
War Department officials said
yesterday that Col. Charles A. Lind
bergh had stressed to them the
urgent" need of additional aviation
research facilities.
Col. Lindbersh made oral recon-
mendations to Secretary Woodring
and Maj. Gen. Henry H. Arnold,
chief of the Air Corps, on COM
pleting q survey of American avia-
ton facilities. He returned to in
active status as a Reserve officer
in September.
One recommendation was that
eventually an aircraft engine re-
search station be located somewhere
in the West. This station would
be in addition to the existing re-
search center of the National Ad-
visory Committee for Aeronautics At
Langley Field, and the $4,000. 900
new N. A. g. A. station to be created

There is a probability that the

will have something to say about
the matter in its report to the COM

UNCLE RAYS CORNER

There was a time when mountains
barred the way of airplanes. Thirty
years ago aviators did not dare to
cross a ridge mile high, or even
half mile high.
Airplanes Of 80 years ago were not
playthings. One of them, pioleted by
the Frenchman Bleriot, was used in
a flight across the English Channel.
Another won speed race by trav-
cling 13 miles in Is minutes, not
quite mile minute.
An idea of the height to which air
planes of 1909 could rise is gained
from a record of fight over the
Eiffel Tower in Paris in that year.
A French aviator flew Wright air
plane over the tower, and people
spoke of his having reached the
startling altitude of 1900 feet" In
other words, he rose about quarter
OF mile above the ground.
The progress of aviation has been
swift. Today it is common for air.
planes to travel at heights of a mile
or two. Many rise from 3 to miles,
and some have made record flights
to heights Of to 10 miles above sea
level.
Mountains no longer stand in the
way. Day after day airplanes carry
passengers and mail across the
Rockies. In South America, the
mighty Andes ns-higher

a question of comfort, but Of absolute
need for person to be given oxygen.
Oxygen tanks were used by British
aviators who crossed the worlds
highest peak, Mount Everest, several
years ago. Everest is bit more
than 51a miles above sea level.
Although we can cross mountains
by air, there still is danger in doing
so. Clouds or fogs may inclose the
airplane, and the pilot may not know
that mountain peak is straight
ahead.
If an airplane is forced to land on
a mountain, the pilot knows that
death is all too likely. Steep cliffs
and fields of boulders do not make
good landing fields!
The Rocky Mountains have
claimed many victims from the air,
but the air transport companies
have found ways to meet the dangers
in recent years.

Bad Doubles Help DecIurer

1t is pretty fair gamble to double
an opposing three no-trump con-
tract when holding a suit that can
be established in one lead, plus an
ace as a re-entry. However, when
the defending player holds only pos
sible re-entries. the double will then
serve only to help declarer in his
play of the hand. Here is an eX-
ample of poor double:

would knock out South's ace and
the club king would be his re-entry.
Here is what happened:
South allowed East's 10 to win the
first heart lead, but when the king
was returned, he won the ace and
then proceeded to cash five diamond
tricks. On the third and fourth uia-
monds East let go of two clubs, but
the last diamond lead was decidedly
embarrassing. East decided that in
order to beat the contract he would
have to win four heart tricks plus
one other trick. Hence he now
threw a third club, blanking his
king.
Declarer who had carefully fol-
lowed the diamonds, now led small
club and went right up with
dummy's ace. When the king
dropped, South then also cashed his
queen, and once more East had to
make discard. This time he threw
heart. Now South played his last
heart and East cashed three heart
tricks, but then had to lead a spade
away from his king. The net result
was three no-trump doubled with an
overtrick, thanks to East's double.

Next draw trumps and finally con-

When mountains as high as the

Imperial Valley press., 1939-08-22
By HENRY McLEMORE

NEW YORK, Aug. %. (UP)-The
outcome of the Lou Ambers-H Henry
Armstrong fight tonight is a sub
ject that doctors, not sportswriters,
should discuss.
1t is a topic that lends itself more
to the austerity Of clinic than to
the hubbub of the city room, more
to the aroma of formaldehyde than
to the ripe smell of printers ink
For this reason: If both men
were in top physical condition,
there could be no doubt as to the
outcome OF the fight. AS fighter,
in the true and strict sense, Arm
strong is superior in every way He
hits harder, he hits faster and he
keeps rolling at a clip few men of
the prize ring have approached
and perhaps none has exceeded.
But there is the chance that hus-
tling Henry is not in what the
Bulgarians so aptly call "ze peenk".
Thus, needing a physicians meas
ured advice before predicting an
outcome, had made arrangements
with my family physician, a promi-
nent quack, to visit Armstrong;
camp and look the champion over
However, he-the doctor, not Arm
strong-was SO busy trying to beat
some 100000 other doctors into
print with a book of medical ex-
perienceS, that he didn't have time
To 90.
Therefore, 1 who have difficulty
distinguishing between a bottle of
aspirin and a compound fracture
OF the skull, am forced to list the
merits and dement's of these 1856
pounds who fight tonight at Yam
kee stadium.
I am forced to give you Arm
strong, whose name isn't that at
all. Actually it is Jackson. But if
it were Mcintyre or Van Buren,
or Smith or Cohen-he still would
be one OF the 10. greatest fighters
this country ever has known
The last time Armstrong - or
Jackson-fought Ambers, most of
you thought the bout was close. But
take it from Referee Arthur Dono-
van, who was nearer Armstrong
that night than you or l or anyone
but Ambers, Haag won u of Is
rounds. Only pride kept him from
winning all Is. In an early round
Ambers hit him in the mouth with
Imperial Valley press., 1939-08-22
Today,s Sports Parade

an uppercut and opened a cash Of
frightful proportions.
Blood poured from it like oil from
a guSher. But the spectators never
saw a drop. Round after round
Armstrong swallowed it, fighting off
nausea. Round after round he never
took a backward step, but shuffled
always in, punchin'
Tonight his hands are the prob
lem. A few months ago they gave
way under the ceaSeleSs pounding
and in his fight with Roderick in
England he could only hit with his
wrists. He says they are we'll again,
nut brown and hard, knuckles level,
ready to Withstand the thousands
OF punches ne throws in a fight.
If he is telling the truth, 1 have
given you a winner, given you an
easy winner. If the making of the
l35 pound weight limit has not
robbed him of the strength to whirl
through Is fast rounds, he'll stop
Ambers. He had him on the floor
twice in the last fight, once for a
count of nine.
No doWager who ever outgrew
her corset had a harder time losing
weight than has Armstrong during
the past three weeks. For several
days his biggest meal was a glass
of water, skinned. For his BIRTH
day, which occurred during train
ing, they gave him hard tack, made
with no butter or sugar, and for
dessert a predigested stick of gum.
They say AmberS never loses to
the same man twice He was beaten
by Pedro Montanez, he lost to Steve
Halaiko and Tony CanZoneri, and
he even was held to a draw by the
walking shadow of Baby AriZmendi.
But each time he came back dane
ing and showing and laughing, and
each time the return bout was over
the Ambers hand was raised.
The men who lay the betting odds
set great store by this. That is why
they've chalked the odds down from
the Al of the first bout to Us
for the second engagement tonight.
But they forget one important
thing.
Ambers isn't facing the same man
the second time tonight. The Arm
strong he fought the first time was
drinking blood all through the last
six rounds. Tonight-if the hands
are right-there may be no last six
rounds.

Today the Reds had recovered
their equilibrium. and the Cardinals
had come up with a bad case of jit-
ters BY beating the Phillies, TO,
the Reds regained their confidence
and increased their lead to Az
games. The Cards were knocked off,
IL. by the hustling Dodgers, who
are fighting to finish ahead of the
Giants, and now have to look
to the rear to be careful the up and
coming Cubs don't overtake them.
The Cubs nosed out the Giants, AS,
and are only Az games astern the
Cardinals. If the Cards think they
can overtake the Reds, the Cubs
have a right to think they can hoist
themselves into second place
John Niggeling, the veteran rookie
from Indianapolis, let the Phils
down with seven hits. Frank Nc
Cormick and Bill Hersheberger, with
three hits each, led the Cincinnati
attack, each driving in two runs.
The Cards looked like a tired ball
club as they jumped through hoops
for Luke Hamlin, who won his 18th
game-first Brooklyn pitcher to
win that number in three years. The
Dodgers moved into fourth place
half a game ahead of the Giants,
who dropped to fifth.
The Cards made two errors. JIM
my Brown and Don Padgett drop

homer No 20 with a mate on. Stain
back and Parks made three hits

Larry French, who knew what he
was talking about when he told p
K. Wrigley that Gabby Hartnett
wouldn't give him enough work
