Colorful Ceremony Marks Presentation of Highest Honor at White House. of 18 Wounded Comrades in Nicaragua. Lieut. C. Frank Schilt, Marine Corps paign, this afternoon received from President Coolidge the Congressional Medal of Honor for his accomplishment of carrying 18 wounded Marines from the town of Quilali in his airplane. The medal was pinned on Lieut. Schilt’s breast at a colorful and elab- orate military ceremony held under Marine Corps regulations. Lieut. Schilt is the first living aviator of any serv- ice to receive the Government's high- est recognition for heroism above and beyond the call of duty and in the face of enemy fire, the only other award having been made posthumously to Lieut. Frank Luke for his startling achievements in the World War. Former Presentations Informal. While other Congressional Medals of Honor have been presented at the White House in the past, as far as could be recalled there the award was made more or less informally. The Marines, proud of the quiet young airman, turned out to do him honor on this occasion. When the President arrived from his office to the south lawn of the White House grounds he saw the ranking officers of the Marine Corps and Navy lined up and behind them was a bat- talion of Marines with the colors and the Marine Band. ‘The President took his place at the right of the little group of Navy and Marine officials and at that instant Maj. R. S. Keyser, in command of the battalion, presented the colors. Lieut. Schilt, who had been standing in the file closers, stepped from behind and marched to a point a few paces in front of the colors and behind Maj. Keyser. The major, the airman and colors then marched simultaneously toward the President, where Maj. an- nounced that Lieut. it was present to receive the decoration. He then stepped aside- and Lieut. Schilt moved two paces forward, faced the President and saluted. The band played “The Star Spangled Banner” and then Maj. Gen. John A.

On the sixth, seventh and eighth of January, 1928, at Quilali, Nicaragua, Lieut. Schilt, then a member of a Marine expedition which had suffered severe |losses in killed and wounded, volun- teered under almost impossible condi- | tions to evacuate the wounded by air | and transport a relief commanding | officer to assume charge of a very seri- ous situation. Lieut. Schilt bravely undertook this dangerous and vitally important task and by taking off a total of 10 times in the rough, rolling street of the partially burned village. under hostile infantry fire on each cccasion, succeeded by almost super- human skill, combined with personal courage of the highest order, in accom- plishing his mission, thereby actually saving three lives and bringing sup- pllc; and succor to others in desperate need.”” Capt. Wilson Brown, naval aide to the President, handed the Executive the Congressional Medal of Honor and Mr. Coolidge pinned it on the officer’s breast directly above his gold wings. Participating in Ceremony. ‘Those who officlally participated in the ceremony with the President were, in addition to Gen. Lejeune, as follows: Edward I'.

KINGS BAY, Spitzbergen, June 9.— | The dirigible Italia was estimated to- day to be down near Northeast Land, or on the Polar ice cap to the north. The base ship Citta de Milano has picked up signals from the airship, which has been missing since May 25. The men at the base were very opti- mistic today that the airship’s crew of 17 and their commander, Gen. Um- berto Nobile, would be rescued. The base ship heard the Italia’s sig- nals yesterday afternoon, and asked the airship a number of questions. The base ship received no answers, but heard several more signals which Capt. Manoya of the ship was unable to understand. Told of Relief Plans.

Holm, have been conducting, little exploration was made beyon the western portion of Northeast Land, the Straits of Hinlopen a formidable barrier crossed only wit difficulty, ‘While Russian officials are inclined to believe that the Italia came down in the hborhood of Peterman Land north of Franz Josef Land, it appears certain that the dirigible came down in Queen Victoria Sea at some point between the easternmost tip of North- east Land and the western tip of Pri Josef Land. It is between these two places that the approximate limit of open water has been found, and it is along this border of ragged ice and water that the Hobby and Bm-nn are crulsing in search of the Italia. 18 Men on Dirigible, There were 18 men on the Italia when she left Kings Bay for the North Pole, Several dogs, including Titinla, the little terrigr mascot, which flew with the Norge across the Pole in 1926, also were aboard. The personnel consisted of: Gen, Umberto Nobile, chief in com- mand; Capt. A. Marlano, pilot; Capt. Filippo Zappl, Lieut. A. Viglieri, Lieut. Ettore Arduino, Prof. Pontremoli, Dr. F.

The bar assoclation contended that Lindsey, who had earlier granted Mrs. Stokes custody of her two minor chil- dren in a sult against her husband, had no right to be retained by her, The children at the time the will was con- tested, were wards of the Denver Juve- nile Court, under the ruling which awarded them to Mrs Stokes, The petition stated that a $37,600 fee alleged to have been paid Lindsey by Mrs. Stokes consisted of shdres of stock gained for the children in the fight on the will, 1t is also charged Lindsey had recelv- ed an additional $10,000 from Samuel Untermyer, a New York attorney, who was likewise retained by Mrs. Stokes in the contest of the will.

Staff Correspondent of The St KANSAS CITY, Mo., June 9.—Frank O. Lowden of Illinois, “the man of the hour,” came to Kansas City today to | make his final effort for the Republican presidential nomination. He came, ac- companied by his wife and daughter, from his farm, Sinnissippi, and his entrance into the convention city was made as unobtrusively as possible. Pos- |sibly this was because his chiet op- {ponent for the nomination, Herbert | Hoover, is not coming to Kansas City at all and the Lowdenites do not wish their candidate to appear in the guise of seek- ing too strongly the office of President.
