Freitag, High School Operetta Has Mysterious Plot ‘With only two more days before the presentation of “The Mysterious Master,” high school operetta, great interest in the event is being evidenc- ed, for this is the first play of a mus- ical comedy type, to be given by the local school. The operetta will be given Wednesday evening, February 19, at the city auditorium. ‘The seat is very successful, indicating that this type of entertainment is pleasing to Bismarck audiences, The setting of the play is laid in the manor house of an old English estate, and lends itself admirably to Staging. Here the servants await the coming of the Master, (Dale Brown), when word is received that the Mas- ter is arriving very soon by airplane, and the sudden appearance of Rastus Brown (Myron Benser), the Master's servant, and a small force of detec- tives, does not add to the servants’ Peace of mind. ‘When the Master does appear, and with him several ferocious pirates, the ‘consternation of the Housekeep- er, (Isabella Humphreys) the Butler, (Harold Lason) and the other ser- vants is highly amusing, and strange happenings and queer noises, add to the mystery. ‘Who the pirates are, why the de- @09:| tectives are shadowing the Master, and the reasons for the peculier ac- tions of the Butler, are not revealed until the last few - minutes of this highly pleasing and tuneful operetta. ‘The operetta is being directed by Clarion Larson, of the music depart- BISMARCK TRIBUNE.

James Doolittle’s First Civil- ian Flight Almost Fatal for Self and Family MERCHANTS PLAN T0 FIGHT CHAIN STORES Devils Lake Business and Trav- eling Men to Launch Inde- pendent Association Mitchell Field, N. Y., Feb. 17.—(?)— Lieutenant James H. Doolittle, for- mer crack army flyer, and his family were en route to St. Louis by train today, after the plane in which they planned to fly cracked up in a snow- drift while taking off. Lieutenant Doolitle, Mrs. Doolittle and their sons, James, Jr. 9 years old, and John, 7, escaped without in- jury in the accident which prevented what was to have been the first civil- jan flight Lieutenant Doolittle has made in 12 years. After receiving his formal release from the army from Washington, Lieutenant Doolittle loaded a Lock- head-Vega monoplane owned by the | Shell corporation of St. Louis, with household goods, put aboard enough | fuel for a non-stop flight and helped | his wife and sons into the cabin yes- | terday afternoon. With a half-gale blowing he taxied the plane down the wind amid a swirl of snow, kicked up by the whirl- ing propeller. One of the landing wheels struck a drift larger than the others and stuck. He opened his throttle in an effort to drive the plane through but the strain was too great, the landing stvuts buckled and the plane heeled over, blocking the door and imprison- ing the flyer and his family. When field attendants released them it was found that the propeller was broken, part of one wing splint- ered and the gasoline tank burst open. Prompt action by Lieutenant Doo- Iittle in cutting out his ignition switch when the plane broke down prevent- ed the fuel flowing out of the broken tank catching fire. 9 SCOFFLAWS CONVICTED Oklahoma City, Okla., Feb. 17.—(#) —Nine of the 12 defendants in the Pottawatomie county liquor conspir- acy case, including Frank Fox, form- er sheriff, were convicted by jury in federal district court here today.
