Soucek of ithe confident that he had established a new world altitude rec- jord in his flight yesterday at the jnaval air station at Anacostia. , At the same time, he was prepared {to be disappointed and said that if it was found that his own calcula- tions were in error, he would try again and keep on trying until he idid set a new record. His altimeter, he explained, registered 40,000 feet before he turned downward in yes- terday'’s flight and his calculations, based on a series of tests to plot the discrepancy between that instrument and barograph readings, placed his actual altitude at approximately 39,- 000 feet. ‘ The flight was made in the same biplanc used by Lieutenant C. C. Champion of the navy, to set the present official record of 38,418 feet in July, 1927. In making his flight yesterday, he 1elated, he deliberately took a chance ; that his cyes would be frozen. On an ‘attempt last month, he recalled, his | goggles frosted over at 35,000 feet and {he came down, heeding a warning not to take them off lest his eyes | freeze, but when the same condition developed yesterday at a higher alti- tude, he discarded them and kept on climbing. Although he went an ad- ditional thousand feet higher after removing the goggles, his eyes didn't freeze and the plane, he said, was “functioning perfectly.” 2 BISMARCK EXPECTS TOURIST: INCREASE More than 7,500 travelers are ex- pected to make use of the Bismarck tourist camp this year, according to a statement made today by H. P. Goddard, secretary of the Association of Commerce. Goddard points out that 5,600 vis- i the camp last year, more than twice the number which made use of the camp in 1927. Automobiles visit- ing the site last year totaled 1,726, ac- | cording to the report made to the As- sociation of Commerce by Frank Schlomer. who was in charge of the Property last year, when the camp closed in October. Schlomer is in charge again this year. The camp opened about the middle of May and closed early in October last season. The improved condition of U. 8. highway No. 10 also will encourage more tourists to include: Bismarck in their summer tours this year, Mr. Goddard believes. The highway, which extends from Detroit, Mich. to Se- attle, Wash., is regarded by many as the best across the northwest. Starting at Detroit, the highway leads to Ludington, Mich., where the tourist must cross Lake Michigan to Manitowoc. The highway then leads to St. Paul. Two branches of the road lead from St. Paul to Fargo. The highway crosses North Dakota from Fargo to Beach and continues across Montana, Idaho and Washington in almost. a straight line to the western terminus.

Hamilton, former judge of the Texas {supreme court appeals commission, was in jail here today under indict- ment for the murder of his son-in- law, Tom Walton, Jr. Walton was shot to death in Ham- ilton’s office last Saturday when he went there ¢: his mother's instance to tell of his secret marriage to Theresa Hamilton, 19-year-old daugh- ter of the slayer. Hamilton was arrested last night after a grand jury had returned the murder indictment. District Attorney Edward W. Thompson said the state would contend the case was not bail- able. Counsel for the lawyer had made no attempt to have him released on bond early today. Tom Walton, Sr., father of the 21- year-old University of Texas student. yesterday revealed in McAlester, Okla., where the youth was buried. that Hamilton had forbidden the marriage of Theresa to his son. “Hamilton said he would never let his daughter marry beneath him,” Walton said. “He already had re. fused to let them marry, but the boy's mother insisted that Tom tell Ham- ilton as soon as she found out they had been married secretly last Feb- Tuary 10.” ‘Walton indicated to friends his be- j lef that Hamilton, wealthy and lead- ing member of the bar in Texas, opposed the marriage because young ‘Walton had no wealth and was not socially prominent. HELEN WILLS BOWS BEFORE QUEEN MARY Seven Other Americans to Make Curtesy Tomorrow at Buck- ingham Palace London, May 9.—(#)—Helen Wills, American tennis queen, in silken train and plumes, will curtsey tonight be- fore Queen Mary in. the first presen- tation at the court of St. James. Partaking tation also will be seven other Amer- icans. As many again from the United States will be presented Queen Mary in the second court to be held tomorrow night at Buckingham pal- ace. It.was a day of thrills and anticipa- tion for those so honored, with crowd- ed hours of rush, hurry, and finally tedious waiting. Visits to the hair- dresser, practice of the almost forgot- ten art of the curtsey and being photographed were just parts of the preparation. Little “poker face” stood small chance of her daily prac- tice at tennis. ‘There is at, the end of it all, though 30 seconds of splendor, the half min- ute involved in the short trip across the room to where England's queen will sit alone on the imperial dais, the Prince of Wales and other pee . bene: in roms of the ueen, the brief curtsey w: made, and the fortunate ones half-minute of glitter'in the courtly constellation finished. RegGSERE filet YOUR CHILDREN ee Grandma walked in to find Billy yelling his head off—on top of the refrigerator. “Well, I declare! Where's your mother? What does this mean?” “Is that you, Mother?” called her daughter downstairs. “I guess the only way I can keep that child at home—is to keep him on ice. He ran away again.” “Elizabeth! Have you lost your mind? Come here dear! Now don’t cry any more. There, that's better— the idea of sticking you up there where you're likely to fall off and break your neck.” A Runaway soy “I was just coming down to get him,” said Elizabeth wearily, only been there a minute. But I don't know what to do with him. He ran off twice today, and once yester- day. The last time, the children next door found him down by the lake. Yesterday his father found him hanging over‘ the railroad bridge watching the trains,” Grandma fixed Billy with a stern eye. “Why Billy. I'm surprised! You worrying your poor mother like that! Don't you know that you'll get run over or someone will steal you or something?” “Goodness, Mother. There's no use talking to him. I've done everything on earth. I had him tied to the bed- Post all day Tuesday, but he hadn't been loose ten minutes till he was gone, and it was getting dark, too. T was worried sick. Dick found him down at the grocery store. They have @ big black dog he likes.” All this time four-year-old Billy was unim- pressed by the things being said of him. He hummed .: tuneless little tune and played with a toy engine. Grandpa Has a Plan It ‘was Grandpa who solved the running away business finally, for it really became a serious thing “I don't know much about it,” he said, “but there is some real reason in that little fellow's head for skip- ping off. I think he’s just interested in things he doesn't see at home. In- stead of toy trains he wants to sec real ones, and instead of toy animals he wants live ones. He goes to the lake to watch people feed the swans and ducks. And ‘1c goes to the gro- cery store to sce that dog. “He ought to have a dog of his own, by the way, and other animals, too. That would keep him home for a while, perhaps. But mayt: not long. So I have a plan. I’m going to leave work early every day and come and take him somewhere to see things— the zoo and so on. I believe if we promise him a walk or little excursion each day he'll stay at home the rest of the time.” It worked like a charm. Auxiliary Names. Mrs. G. Olgierson New President Mrs. G.
