Bill Odom Spans Pacific Nonstop In Small Plane

Continued from Page One pm. Wednesday.
 Official recognition of his rec ord must await approval by the national aeronautics association.
 But the distance computed by civil aeronautics authority off cials is about 313 mills over the 2,O6l.7-mile mark set by two Rus sianS, w. GouSsarov and V. Gie- boy, in 1887.
 Odom'S record is for light per SOnal aircraft with a moor cylin- der displacement of 6.5 to g liters.
 Strong head winds which buff feted him at daybreak yesterday forced Odom to alter his annOunc- ed plan to fly to New York via Seattle on only 260 gallons of gas oline.
 If I'd headed for Seattle as planned, I'd still be ou; there," he said.
 After he flew over the Golden Gate bridge, the weather conspir- ed against him once more. The CAA told him of clouds and icing conditions over Nevada. His little plane had no de-icers.
 Odom said he tried to pick a hole through the clouds over the mountains, but il was no go."
 HC turned back over Reno, New, returning to Oakland.
 He estimated there were 70 to 80 gallons of gasoline left when he landed.

RANDY'S GIRL

to keep him from-from-"
whats his name?" said Randy
hoarsely.
'Lancey. Tom Lancey. He's at
the Seaside. He called and said"
"We'n 60 down and have a talk
with him." Randy snapped.
"Randyl I can'tl /"
"You're coming tool"
She didn't understand Randy's at
titude, but she trusted him.
They went to the Seaside.
Inside the door Pamela stopped.
"There he Isl" she whispered.
"On the divan reading tho
newspaper"
It was Tony Quarles. Randy felt
sick. He put his hand under his
coat and started across the lobby.
Tony saw him coming. But it was
too late. Randy got his gun out and
shot before Tony reached his feet.

when he saw him.
"What the hell! The dame will
take a powder on you. If she blows
it's curtains as far as our chance
of bringing in Tony is concerned"
Randy felt like telling the chief
to jump in the lake. But he didn't.
He knew the chief was right. Pamela
was Tony's girl. A new one. They'd
been seen together at The Lobster
Club and the story was that Tony
was nuts over her.
Right after that the Ryegate
job was pulled; a night watch
man and cop shot dead. OF
course Tony vanished. They
couldn't hope to find him. The
girl vanished too. A week later
one Of the boys saw her down at
Ocean Bluffs. She was an usher
in movie theater.
They didn't pick her up. The
chief was too smart for that. He
sent Randy down. you're a good
looking kid, Randy, with a nice,
friendly smile. Go down there and
play the sucker game. Sooner or
later she and Tony will join up.
It's our only chance"
Randy's part was easy. He played
the part Of a lumber kings son
down from Michigan on vacation.
The friendly smile worked. Pamela
trusted him. She seemed lonesome
and glad to have him around.
Then came that night when i'm
pulsiveness gave way to logic. He
kissed her and told her he loved
her.
Randy made plans. The payoff
was due to come soon now. He had
orders to take both the girl and
Tony. Well, he'd do just that.
Days passed. They saw each
other once at least every. "a hours.
They danced and went sailing and
swan and played tennis. Randy
suffered. He was haunted by the
scene that was inevitable.
There was haunting light in the
girls eyes also. He wondered if she
too, were suffering because the
same thing had happened to her.
THEN ONE DAY he called for
I her and found. wild fright in her
eyes. !.

tell you about-why left Chicago.

The gangster went down. Randy
looked at him, then remembered
the girl. He had to take her too.
He looked around, and there she
was, staring in wild-eyed horror.
Randy! You shouldn't have
you've killed him.
Randy's lip curled. Tony Quarles
opened his eyes and saw the girl.
Hello, sister," he managed. Con
gratulations. You're the first wom-
an copper who ever fooled me, but
guess you were worth it. Baby,
you're a locker"
OF course she wasn't a copper.
But she wasn't Tony's girl either.
She was just who she said she was.
She'd been telling the truth. And
Randy was so surprised he let her
swoon in his arms before he could
gather his senses enough to explain
his own identity.

Elusive Seals Evade Govt. Followers

SEATTLE, LP)-Sceince knows where baby seals come from-the Pribilof Islands-but where the fur seal pups spend their first win ter remains a mystery.
 This has been disclosed by Dr. Victor B. Scheffer of the U. s. fish and Wildlife service upon the re- turn of the service vessel Black Douglas to Seattle.
 In tWo-thouSand mile cruise from the Boring Sea to San Fran cisco, the Black Douglas scientist found adult fur seals scattered all along the way.
 But we didn't see single pup" he said. At least, we now know that the mothers don't es- cort their young on the annual trip 10 the south from their sum- mer breeding grounds"
 Dr. Scheffer surmises that the pups, born in summer on the Prib- ilofS, probably spread out along the Aleutian Islands and other ice free Alaskan waters during the first winter. Then again, maybe they don't.
 Tt would take many years of following the seals to find exactly where they do travel when they leave the north,' the scientist pointed out. We came back from California along the continental

shelf and observed fur sea.s feed ing as far north as Near Bay.
 On the southward trip, ScbeffeT saw seals every day, some in the Aleutians, some a thousand mile from the nearest land, some close to the California coast.
 Probably, the adult seas craVeI in a great, unter-c.0ckWist sweep from the Pribilofs, out int, the Pacific and back along the American coast" he said. "Both Japan and Russia have clalmed that they have picked up tagged American seals in Siberian and Japanese waters, but we have DC proof of this"
 Finished for the time being With the seal mystery, the Black Doug las soon will leave for California waters. Fishermen there want tU know what happened to thelT van shed sardine schools.

 Tt is with much gratitude that l acknowledge the cooperation ex- ended to us through the Fish and E.ildlife Services Philippine Fish ery Program" Dr. Villadol;d stated.
 As a result of he program, he said that new fishing grounds nave been located in the Philip pines, new methods of fishing been introduced 10 increase pro- duc,iOn, and the pond-fish indus try Is being expanded to increase the country's food supply. Under he program, Fish and Wildlife Service personnel act as technical .dviSers to the Philippine govern ment'S bureau of fisheries.
 we are conducting extensive research in our fisheries to mini 1l;ze, the financial risk for our commercial fishermen" the Phil ippine fisheries chief said. We want to be able to tell the fisher men where and when it will be most profitable for them to fish. and just how much of an industry can be sustained on our various / shing grounds. We also want to encourage businessmen to estab- fish new fishery industries, after we have laid the groundwork through research"
 The Fish and Wildlife Services Philippine Fishery Program was established by the 79th Congress- Philippine Rehabilitation Act of l946. Of the several rehabilitation plans set up by the Ac. for the new island republic, it is the only ore cO~cerned with the produc- ton of fOod.
