He was the first man to visit the South Pole, in 1911. In 1926, with Lincoln Ellsworth and Col. Umberto Nobile on the Diri- | gible Norge, he was a member of the second group of men to view the North | Pole from the air. From this trip grew the discord and circumstances which apparently finally ended in his death. There was an open following the flight of the Norge. When word came last May that the second dirigible, the Ifalla, had fallen north of Spitzbergen, Amundsen imme- diately pledged himself to assist in the cue work and disappeared while on this quest .

The ring, which s now rather thin, is of gold, and resembles a ‘keeper,” being carved on the inside. The Initials “M. C.” can be distinctly seen. Mary Campbell was born at Anchamore, near Dunoon.

Herbert Hoover yesterday afternoon | laid aside his task of building up & political team to battle the Democrats in the East and journeyed to Griffith Stadium to watch Washingon combat New York. After a morning spent in conferring | with some of the figures who will par- ticipate in his effort to win the East, the Republican presidential candidate took the afternoon off. resting after a strenuous week of work over the Re- publican party machinery and laying wn the for participation in struggle for the presidency. Cabinet Members to Aid. During the forenoon the nominee went over the Connecticut situation with J. Henry Roraback of Hartford, national committeeman for that State: delved into the Massachfisetts problem in a conference with Frederick M. Prince, Boston railroad man and bank- er, and received additional light upon the New York up-State conditions from Representative Taber of Auburn. At the same time it was disclosed that several members of the cabinet were preparing to take up their oratorical cudgels for Hoover and Curtis in the long fight ahead. Tentative plans were revealed for radio addresses by Secre- taries Mellon and Wilbur, with ofhers contemplated by Secretaries Kellogg, | Dwight F. Davis and James J. Davis and Postmaster General New. Vice | President Dawes already has signified a willingness to come into the battle. Coincident with his announcement | came -news of the plan of Hoover to | carry the offensive into enemy grounds | in his first Eastern speech which will | be at Newark, N. J, about the middl: | of September. Labor probably will be | the central theme of the speech. Negotiations already are in progress for a nation-wide radio hook-up to carry his words into all parts of the country. Various other Government officials and political friends dropped in upon the general headquarters of the ~an- didate before he closed his desk for the week end. Urged to Visit Connecticut. Roraback urged the nominee to visit Connecticut during his trip inte the New England States. He brought the view that the wet elemen: in Connecti- cut was “not as strong as some people think.” and declared that “the Con- necticut people are realizing that the prohibition promises of Gov. Smith are not very substantial.” 2 Roraback said at issue of the campaign would be the tariff. “The people of Connecticut will not | trade prosperity for a glass of beer,” | he sald. i Prince declined to reveal the nature | of his conversation with Mr. Hoover | but ventured the prediction that Massa- the dominant | in his State chusetts would be found in the Repub-’ lican column in November. Taber, asserting that the rural dis- tricts of up-State New York were dry, considered the farm problem the issu> upon which would hinge the votes of that section of the State. Mr. Hoover's declarations upon farm relief were satisfactorily received there, he seid. Senator Watson of Indiana, who called upon the candidate with Leslie M. Shaw, former Secretary of the Treasury, told the candidate that the Hoosler State would be safely Republi- | can_this year. “Nothing more than a political rev- | olution can upset the overwhelming | margin by which Indiana is Republi- can,” the Senator said. “and there is nothing of that sort in sight.” American-style collars are becoming | in Switzerland, STOP’ at elther of our showrooms at the NEV N N NIVE SARY BUICK LOOK/ LISTEN/ o wm about many NEW FEATUR You'll Agree It's the Finest Thing in Motordom it DickMurp FIRST/ INSPECT TODAY | Apartments ideally arranged, located and maintained at rentals comparing favorably with those of other apartments which do not afford the many advantages & S 1835 14th 607HN.E.
