PAGE TWO THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE 1) FOGS UNNERVE | OCEAN FLYERS, AIRMAN FINDS > ' Lieut. Davis, Who Navigated Goebel’s Plane, Tells of Difficulties Atlanta, Oct. 7.—(®)—Inadequate knowledge of atmospheric condi- tions over the ocean may be put down as one of the principal causes of failure in many of the long dis- tance flight attempts of recent months, believes Lieut. William V. Davis; Jr. who navigated Art Goebel’s “Woolaroc,” the prize win- ning monoplane, in the Dole race from California to Hawaii. Conditions over the ocean are quite different from those found in land flying, he says, and demand quick and accurate action in con- trol of the plane. Ocean flyers thus far also have taken off without the important weather. information which comes from high altitude ob- servations at sea, a guide long avail- able ta the land pilot. Fog Prevails “Fog prevails much of the time} and storms arise suddenly over the ocean,” Davis explains. “It is not) strange in the least that a pilot who is expert in flying over land| might find himself helpless at sea because of unfamiliarity with ocean atinospheric conditions. The mat- ter of o pilot’s judgment and abil- ity in selecting the right altitude at which to fly under prevailing con- ditions is most important. “To me, the other causes of fail- ure in these attempts were improper navigation; the ever present danger of material failure in the engine, such as the breaking of an oil or gas line, and the use of land planes. “From these mistakes, however, will come multiple engines in sea- worthy planes, experienced pilots AN) and navigators in sea-flying, and b as f lete and accurate information JOHNNY WREN FILLS ALL THE NESTS ying weather over the ocean. Low Ceiling Causes Trouble A low ceiling is one of the most dangerous conditions confronting a pilot in land or ocean flying, Lieu- tenant Davis finds. Ceiling is the aviator’s term, generally speaking,’ for the maximum height which pre- vailing atmospheric conditions with permit his plane to attafn—the maximum altitude of clear, flying air. Heavy clouds and fog close down to cause a low ceiling. “My personal opinion is that sev- eral of the missing flyers in the Dole flight were lost trying to climb out of fog,” he says. “The Woolaroc flew at 6,000 feet over fog most of the way, in perfect flying weather, with the exception of a few squalls. ‘Slving in fog, a pilot may easily lose 'l sense of balance and direc- tion. The natural inclination is to climb out of it, and before one realizes it the plane may be lifted too sharply and go into a spin. It takes nearly a thousand feet to re- cover and if a flyer is close to the 8 no chance. ends on Instruments and the navigator are >dent upon instruments. so out on the instrument. in a dangerous pre- Z) ‘One WREN'S: NE WONDERS HOW SO NUCH SONG CAN COME FROM SUCH Wit 0O FOR WRENS.

God has created no life w.thout endowing it with the power to function with its total environ- ment, Bishop Smith said, adding that it is inconceivable that God would create man as a spiritual being with- out origin: lly bestowing the power to function with his spiritual en- vironment and actually bringing him into that experience of complete and perfect communion. That man was created thus is in- dicated by the existence of -he or- gans of spiritual life in the soul, he averred. i “The fact is,” the bishop salu, that there is a bond broken which cnce united God and man. Man, now, is without the spiritual sense which enables him to function with his spiritual environment. He is un- able to find his way to the home of the soul. “Even more tragic than this, man has become a prey to fear. He is afraid of God his Father and flees from His presence. “Jesus Christ, with his .and clasping ours, becomes the living jlink which restores us to commun- ion and fellowshihp with our Heav- enly Father, We have long sought the missing link which connects us wih this world.

GEN. GUIJANO DIES BRAVELY Refuses Blindfold and Sum- mons Exccutioners Necrer So They Would Not Miss Mexico City, Oct. 7.—(AP)—Gen- eral Alfredo Rucda Quijano, execut- ed for rebellion, died bravely. ,_ Placed against a sun-warmed wall in the court yard of grim old San Lazari military prison, stripped of his ensignia and branded as a traitor, he spurned the blindfold which would have shut out the sight of the fatal rifle muzzles and twice summoned his executioners nearer, that they might not miss. He bore himself with such a de- gree of composure and fortitude that even the soldiers who killed him murmured: “Que hombre, que hom- bre.” “(What a man.)” Nearly 2,000 troops lined the court yard where the general was shot. Public Looks On The court yard had been opened to the public and vendors of ice cream cones, poptorn, fruit and candy shouted their wares.’ Work- men in overalls, washer women with baskets of laundry, looked on, while curious children ceased their play and peered down from the balconies of nearby tenement houses. It might have been a carnival but for the lone figure against the wall, who calmly surveyed the scene, saw the correspondents of the Associated Press, the New York Times and New York Herald Tribune, the only for- eign newspaper men, waved _ his hand and cried in English: “Good- bye! Goodbye!” Then as the ig squad lined up, WHERE DO YOU WANT TO WORK?
