GIRL FLIER IS
 GOING HOME
 VIA pANA|R
Alma Hef|in Heading Bdlk fo Piper After Four
 Months of Alaska

Slip Of a girl flaunts dangers ot l the North-petite Miss Alma Hef- ] lip of the famed Piper sportplanc 1 factories, wings light plane over i frozen tundras to shadow of Pole zooms primitive igloos, turns for home and lands triumphantly al ] Lockhaven.
 It would have Teen good. It would have made fine newspaper copy-20-so -year-old little bru- nette Alma Heflin flying the north ern air trails to show how easy it can be done, but in Juneau today, registered at the Hotel Juneau, homeWard bound via Panair Miss Heflin is four months cured of AL aska and like a good sport is will ing to call it's quits.
 And after all, Alma's had enough trouble for a girl her size.
 It was like this
 l Mss Heflin and Marjorie Quinn, I two Piper plane company employ ees, wanted to see Alaska their own way. Because of the war they couldn't fly through Canada and they shipped their niper Coupe to Juneau.
 From Juneau they flew to Skag- way and on into Fairbanks over the old Klcndike Trail. That was feat enough in a light plane fol two girls, but their plans were t. see all of Alaska
 The story continues.
 After royal entertainment al Fairbanks they took off for Mount Mckinley National Park They swept happily around the clouds oi lofty Mckinley, took the rugged old peaks picture several times and then continued their journey.
 But fierce gales in Healy Rive! canyon put them down in vii low studded field at the coal mines
 They rested and listened to the wind howl and prayed their little plane would hold it's moorings.
 Winds abated, they struggled fcl flying speed on the overgrow, emergency airport and were forced to dive the plane over the lip oi a steep bluff for flying speed
 They made Mckinley Park and were royalty entertained again Things were going too nicely.
 As they left Mckinley, vince hit culbert and the little plant wiped landing gear and broke it; trim little propeller.
 Back to Fairbanks and wait fo repairs.
 Meanwhile. Miss Heflin, still de '. termined to see more of the north borrowed a propeller and took of for Valdez. Engine trouble devel oped and she limped to anothe emergency landing at Gakon; where she landed with dead stick
 Repair parts for the engine, whicf WClc pdhCii oo .A oA bdiiho, SoiL' slowly First order was lost Tn, second finally arrived, weeks late
 At this point, the Lure of tht | North is having the effect of tot much candy on Miss Heflin. Result, Miss Heflin sold her plan, and flew to Juneau yesterday b, Electra. She will fly south on tn. next clipper and she'll write he book on Alaska at home in Spo kane before she goes back to worl at Piper.
 Miss Quinn, Miss Heflin's flyin! partner, has adopted Alaska. Sh' is working for Wien Airways il Fairbanks.
 Four months of flying and wait ing to fly in Alaska has crystal lized Miss Heflin's opinions of Al aska.
 One, she is convinced Alaska ca' use airport development Two, she thinks Alaska flier are miracle men.
 And three, she thinks taking boat down through the West Indie to South America would be finn

Horsenen Figure Weather Only Thing To Stop Bradley
Muddy Track Ls| Seen For Derby;| |BineLech 2 to ST
BY JACK GUENTHER Limited Press Racing EdltOr)

Louisville, Ky, May l.-tUP)--No more than eight, probably only seven, and perhaps as few as six three -year-olds will run for the richest Kentucky Derby prize of all here Saturday--and 1t will be no surprise at all if the track comes up dripping with mud. That was the outlook today for the 88th run ming of the nations foremost race as @ blustery rain storm drenched the Blue Grass land while the praises of the greatest horse since Man O War" ran through every bar and bistro in every Kentucky town.
 For your i940 Derby tip is Blme- lech, men--and it's Bimelech all the way They've given up all hope of beating Col. E. R. Bradley's beauty now. And from here on out all the running Is for second money, If you want to believe the men who have watched Derby horses come and Derby horses go, the only thing that can stop big Bim Is the weather. There hasn't been a Derby run in the mud for 10 years But If the skies that hung over Louisville today were to be inter- preted as signs of things to come, there'll be mud.
 The big stampede for Bimelech followed the third running of the Derby trial. In that classic prep the son of Black Toney all but kicked seven opponents out of Sat- urday's race, and firmly installed himself as the most solid all- around free-style, money-back guaranteed sure thing ever named for tho race of the Roses. Here Is what he did:
 He ran q mile on a slow track in i;38 flat, He won by two lengths,
 He paid only $2.20 straight. He was exactly 10 cents to the dollar while the second low-priced horse came in at $i9,20-or l92 times higher.
 Smaller Field
 This performance reduced the Derby field to Ave certain oppo- nentS. They were c. s. Towards Midland, w. L, Brann's Pictor, J. E. Wideners Roman, Arnold Hang CTS Dit and Tower Stables Royal Man, none of whom were in the Derby trial. Milky Way Farms Gallahadion and DiXiana Farms Slrocco remained in the running. Gallahadion finished second In the trial, but badly beaten. And Srocco was another five lengths behind, The rest of the starters-Designer, Potranco, Endy, Black Brummel and Connaught, were hopelessly outclassed and went out of the Derby,
 Bimelech's action on 6 slow track warned that not even slop may stop him. He showed no inclina- ton to run until he had to. But the way he pulled out In front was something to see. It had to be seen to be believed, and-mud-or not-he Is expected to be the big gest favorite since little Red Aris- tedes won the first Blue Grass tus- slc back In 1875.
