"THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE WEDNESDAY, JUNE 1, 1932 --_- oe 2 PUBRTELLSSTORY OF DRAMA IN AIR | * HIGH OVER cicBRO i Student Pilot ‘Freezes’ to Con-| trols as Ship Spins; | Death Follows Chicago, June 1—(#)—In a spin-j ning airplane high above suburban Cicero Tuesday two men staged «a drama of the air which ended when one of them plunged from the ship and fell 1,000 feet to his death. The man killed was Harold Burke. 21, Elmhurst, Ill, student aviator seeking a limited commercial pilot’s license. He had to put the plane in- to a tail spin and bring it out again as part of the examination. His instructor, Victor Lindemann, 23, of Chicago, told the story: “He spun as we intended,” he said. “Burke should have taken only three spins and then righted the ship. But he lost his head. He was frozen to the controls. I tried to get them away from him, but couldn't. “Spin followed spin until there were fourteen in all. By that time we were little more than 1,000 feet up. I yelled at Burke and it made no im- pression. Finally I slugged the side of his head with my fist, hoping to bring him out of this daze. “He looked, around and I pointed down to the ground to indicate we were going to crash. He seemed tc understand and leaped out with his hand moving toward the ring of his parachute. Maybe he could have opened it if he hand’t been hit by the left wing. We were still whirling and the wing caught him on the left rm and side. My guess is that his left’ arm might have been broken then. Burke dropped. Then I went to work and just managed to right the ship and get back to the airport.” Story Doesn’t Say ‘ ' If He Got Any Fish a Minot, N. D., June 1.—(F)— Harry Johnson, farmer near Pa- lermo, hopes the folks who hear about this won't think he is one of those fellows who tries to shoot fish. When Johnson went fishing in Clear lake, near Palermo, he took his gun along, the weapon being a .22-caliber revolver. When the fish didn’t bite, Johnson amused himself by shooting at mudhens. While casting his fish line far Vital Evidence in Chubbie, Mystery Death The econcmio situation is such I can't go thr with it.Comfort Mother in her the whitest man I know. sorroweYou havo Bill,he is Hatin Am.

KLEIN RELAY RACE SET FOR THURSDAY ° Bismarck High School Teams; Will Compete in Annual | Sports Feature | | Klein's sixth annual Mandan-to,! Bismarck relay race will be staged| ‘Thursday forenoon.

Instead! out from the boat which he oc- cupied, it caught the revolver, pulled it out of his pocket and the gun fell into the water and struck a stone. “Bang” went the weapon, and a bullet zipped into Johnson's leg and lodged near the hip bone. Johnson went to his automobile, drove home and then came to Mi- not and entered as a patient at a hospital. He expects to go home soon with the bullet still lodged in his body. Sa | At the Movies ‘ —_________+ PARAMOUNT THEATRE “The Mouthpiece” starting at the Paramount Theatre tonight derives its title from the main character, por- trayed by Warren William. In certain circles a lawyer whose practice con- sists in freeing and assisting doubtful characters enmeshed in the toils of the law is known as a “mouthpiece.” William . acquires this appellation when he gives up his usual law prac- tice after his prosecution has sent an innocent man to the electric chair. He hits the down grade and changes completely, his association with shady characters leading to the de- velopment of a “legal-loophole” prac- tice. ‘The large cast includes Sidney Fox, tiny star of “Strictly Dishonorable,” in the leading feminine role, that of Celia Faraday, the young stenogra- pher with whom William falls in love and, as a result, is regenerated. Al- most of equal importance is Aline ‘MacMahon, an exvert in cynical roles, who plays William's secretary, a por- trayal similar to that of Edward G. Robinson's secretary in “Five Star Final.” Guy Kibbee, stage veteran with several important films already to his credit, appears as a vital factor in William's character transforma- tion. Other leading players are Wil- liam Janney, John Wray, Noel Fran- cis, Ralph Ince, Mae Madison. J. Car- roll Naish, Stanley Fields, Emerson Tracey and Murray Kinrell. Officers Named at I. O. O. F.
