Will Compete

Two hundred entrants from
Michigan and Ohio are expected
to participate In the second an
nual Hornet Model Airplane Club
meet Sunday at McEnnan's Air
port, Stony Creek Rd. II the wealth
er is favorable, an estimated 5000
spectators are expected to watch
the aviation enthusiasts demon
strate their skill
The contest Is sponsored by the
Ypsilanti Junior Chamber OF Com
merce and over s12e in prizes will
be given. There will be endurance
events for gas models. Class A. b,
and C, endurance events for rubber,
Class c, d, e, combined outdoor
fugelage rubber models, and work
manship and novelty events. Tn
trants in rubber events will register
from 9:30-10:30 a. nj. and the fly
ing will be from 10 TO ~ o'clock.
Entrants for the gas events will
register from 10 TO IL o'clock and
fly from IL to 4 o'clock.
At 2 o'clock IN the afternoon
there will be exhibition flying in
a Piper Cub trainer with Eddy Nc
Ennan. the pilot.

awarded at o'clock.
Don J. Gridley, Hornet Model
Club advisor, will direct the meet.
II is not generally recognized
that sometimes hundreds OF hours
are needed TO complete one OF
these models. and that great
amount OF patience 4 nd skill is re-
quired TO finally get the model TO
fly successfully. This shows how
seriously youths are interested In
the mechanics OF flying.
The whole world has been
amazed at the tremendous ad-
vances that were made by Ger
many In the field OF aviation In
Just a few years, not only in air
craft production but in the train
ing OF Engineers, mechanics, and
pilots. II is very significant that
in their methods OF training, the
boys start building model airplanes
and studying the elementary prin-
ciples OF flying very early In
school As the interest grows. they
gradually learn, step by step. the
more advanced problems OF flight,
until. when still in their early
teens they start practicing on real
gliders. Those showing special
abilities in mechanics. and plotting
are segregated and continue study
ing in these fields.

Duchess Will
Pay For Crime
(Bv Associated Press)

San Quentin. Calf, June 19-AP
The Duchess dies tomorrow.
Barring improbable last minute
reprieve. Evelita Juanita Spinelli,
So, mistress OF a hoodlum gang,
will die in the gas chamber at San
Quentin Prison--first woman to be
executed legally in the state of
California.
Described at her trial as former
member of the notorious Detroit
Purple Gang" she was convicted
with three of her confederates Of
numbering a fifth.
Robert Sherrod was 10, baby of
the mob the Duchess ruled. He
was present when the gang killed
a barbecue operator on the San
Francisco ocean front. The man
was deaf; didn't hear the command
to put his hands up. They shot him
through the belly.
Sherrod, white with fear when
the gang drove a stolen car into
Sacramento, baboled in dread Of
the police. The Duchess told him
he needed a drink
They went to a hotel room and
the Duchess brought out a bottle.
Albert Ives. "a, one-eyed hoodlum
sentenced to the insane asylum
instead OF the gas chamber. related
at the murder trial what happen
ed then.
Knock out drops were put in
Sherrod's highball. The gang took
him to the Sacramento River.
Sherrod's clothing was stripped
of and swimming trunks pulled
on him.
Then, Ives said, the Duchess
showed them where to hit Sherrod
on the head. She used to be a
nurse" he explained.
Having faxed an accidental
death, they threw the unconscious
youth into the river. But Ives be-
came fearful of his own safety and
told police of the killing.
