FORKS ABRONAUT Is [Ste GtANcES - ty George Cark | SOINTISTS MEET DETROIT ENTRY; TWO ARM FOR LIGHTNING Killing of Aide and Balloonist Last Year by Bolts Fails to Deter Others RADIO IS HELD DANGEROUS Army Flyers Scrap Apparatus, Feeling It Was Cause of Crash of 1928 Gasbag Pittsburgh, April 30.— (7) — Eleven of the balloonists who braved the electric storm which claimed two of their comrades in last year’s national elimination races are ready to take off on another quest for national honors here May 4. Their prayers are for clear skies and favorable winds. But two or three of their number are pessimistic or cau- tious enough to arm themselves against a repetition of last year's disaster. Ward T. Van Orman, winner of four national races and one interna- tional contest, has devised a cage-like affair to protect himself against such a terrifying experience as he suffered last year when his aide, Walter W. Morton, was killed by lightning. Van Orman’s anti-lightning device is an adaptation of a “Farraday cage,” which attracts the electrical bolts to itself and protects its occu- pants. The device has been under ex- tation for several months near Akron, where lightning-like bolts of electricity have lashed it in tests. It has been installed on the Good- year VII, which Van Orman will pilot this year with Alan L. MacCracken as his aide. Capt. William J. Flood and Lieut. U. G. Ent of the army air corps have scrapped their radio for this year's race because they believe it had an effect upon the disastrous crash of the army bag last year. Lieutenant Ent was aide to Lieut. Paul Evert last year when Evert was killed by lightning. Ent remained in the basket with his stricken comrade, and later was awarded a distinguished service cross for his heroic act. Capt. W. E. Kepner, veteran army pilot, and his aide, Lieut. W. O. Ear- eckson, winners of both the national elimination and Gordon Bennett bal- loon races last year, will defend their international. honors. They do not have to competé*in the elimination race here, but become entrants in the Gordon Bennett races at St. Louis September 28. The 12 balloons. entered this year include three army contestants, two from the navy, three Detroit Flying club entries, one from Pittsburgh, the Goodyear VII, a St. Louis Chamber of Commerce balloon, and one from the American Business club at Akron. H. E. Honeywell, veteran of 28 years in balloons, will pilot the St. Louis Chamber of Commerce entry. He won the national contests in 1912, 1916 and 1920, but was forced out of last year's contest shortly after the take- off when the severe electrical storm unleashed its havoc. Other veterans of last year's race ready for the 1929 contest are Capt. Edmund W. Hill, army; Lieut. Thomas U. G. Settle, navy; Edward J. Hill, Detroit; Walter Chambers, Pitts- burgh; W. A. Klikoff, Detroit; Arthur G. Schlosser, Detroit (A native of Grand Forks and a brother of Walter Schlosser, former state senator from ane and Arthur C.

The screen version of the famous stage play of the same name by Owen Davis fairly scintillates with sparkling action and brilliant dialogue. The cast: is large, and every name is well known. It includes such prominent players as Jack Holt, Dorothy Revier, ‘William Collier Jr., Agnes Ayres, John Roche, Fred Kelsey, and Virginia Brown Faire. ry ELTINGE THEATRE Fannie Brice, like all great come- diennes, has not only the ability to reach the source of laughter, but of tears. She is magnificent as the her- oine of the glamorous play which ranges from the tenements to glitter- ing Broadway—and—she does all those sketches which have endeared her to the world—and earned for her the title of our greatest comedienne, in “My Man,” the talking, singing picture with musical accompaniment which will be shown again today and Wednesday at the Eltinge. The story of “My Man” is one of universal appeal, recounting the hap- Penings in a New York tenement where lives Fannie, as the older sis- ter, as well as an insolent younger sister and a small brother. comes unexpectedly to Fannie, the ugly duckling, and is snatched away by the sister—and upon the ruins Fannie builds her fame as a Broad- way star. PALACE THEATRE, MANDAN Railroad melodramas are never out of vogue. We thrill in spite of ourselves as the ill-fated trains thunder toward each other with de- struction imminent. Railroads are interesting and railroaders have that tang of up-and-awayishness about them—which makes them of the same company as the sailor or the soldier of fortune. ae ee is of all stars, best tt acceptably the part of engineer. We see him first on the engine of “The Greyhound Limited,” happy in the comradeship of his fireman, in whose home he boards. The mother of the latter begs Monte to intercede between her son and the waitress at the railroad Love j ‘@{lunch counter. i | Out of pity for the old woman Monte wooes: the girl from his pal, thereby driving him to drink, and causing him to framed as a murderer. Obstacles apparently insurmountable, loom in the hero's way before he is ablc to free his friend at the moment of execution. The story is well-knit, has breathless suspense, strong interest and tremendous dramatic punch. Vitaphone is heard in voices of Players—in sound and rousing 3; phonic accompaniment. Blue’s work is without doubt the best of his career. You'll rave about “The Greyhound Limited.’ Railroad Receives ‘Conscience’ Check St. Paul, Minn., April 30. J. Johnson, auditor of passenger re- ceipts at the Northern Pacific general headquarters, last week received from @ woman resident of Caneadea, N. Y. ® letter containing a “conscience’ check. The letter advised that the writer, with her mother and daughter, many years ago made a trip to Peck, Idaho, and returned by way of Lewiston te Moscow, Idaho. The daughter was then more than six years old, but tickets were presented only as fares for the writer and her mother. “I was having hard work to sup- Port my family in those days and I thought it was all right if I wasn’t asked for it, and, of course, it passed from my mind,” the letter read, “But. in @ conversation with my daughter more recently it was brought to my mind, and, as I thought it over after- wards, I felt that I owed the railroad company that half fare, which I find is $2.60, so I am enclosing a check for that amount.” (By The Associated Press) TUESDAY House is in adjournment until tomorrow. a continues ussion ef Mellon's right to effice.

His first talk will be open to the general public, and will be given Friday afternoon in the chemistry lecture room, Dr. Tal- bert said. The topic of his address as announced is “Radiant Energy and its Affect on Animal and Plant Tis- sues.” Based on experimentation conduct- ed in the Mayo laboratories, the talk will deal with pohto - seonstization, growth of plants with their relation to light, and a number of other scien- tific branches, according to word re- ceived from the speaker. ‘His second address will be deliver- ed before members of the Academy and their guests at the banquet Fri- day evening. It will describe, word given out said, how agents work on the color of the skin. This will con- clude Dr. Sheard's part ture. These papers will deal with all forms of science, Dr. Talbert de- clared, and will represent a small portion of what research is being serps by North Dakota ecien- In attendance at the meeting will bebe scientific men from both the unt- versity here, and the State Agricul- tural college at Fargo.

THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE Veterans Prepare for National Balloon Race, May 4, at Pittsburgh. THIS HAS HAPPENED MILDRED LAWRENCE meets STEPHEN ARMITAGE when he rescues her fox fur from a thief. Their friendship grows until PAMELA JUDSON, daughter of Mildred’s employer, tries to lure him away from her. HUCK CON- NOR becomes infatuated with: PAMELA and she plays both men. Her brother, HAROLD, is in love with who tries to keep him from gambling with Huck’s crowd. When Stephen continues seeing Mildred, Pamela has her dis- gainst her saying that she is iting te rastry TEOMA fer bis ngagemen' tells him that is the only way she can break with Huck. Huck commands Harold to pre- vent Pamela’s marriage under forged check. Harold says he can’t force Pamela so Huck plans “Listen, sister,” Mildred heard, “this is a friendly tip to lay off tryin’ to make young Judson spill his in- sides, see? It ain't healthy to know too much, Get me? An’ there ain't gonna be no second warnin’.” The strange voice clipped off crisp- ly and before Mildred could collect her startled wits to form an answer she heard a bang that told her the wire connection was broken. Her head was in a whirl as she turned back to her work. She was not fool enough to underestimate the danger that threatened her. Who- ever had put Stephen in jail would not stop at anything to protect him- self, she knew. Her fingers refused to type the correct business letter she sought to finish. She could not work until she had calmed herself. “I’m not afraid,” she told herself courageously, but the ee of that r. reasoned. afraid I'll make him talk.” She wondered if Harold had told of “Aw, shyt up, what's it to ye—ain’t| Life, ye ever been in leve?’ fi uu in fe if: a ii ne iia rindi i aed f old explained, “but I'll only stop for a bite after aN 2 cae ne .” He turned away from the tele- troubled.
