NINE NEAR DEATH IN BOAT RESCUED Thrilling , Stories Told of Ship Sinking in Nan- tucket Sound. Bt the Associated Press. ‘WOODS HOLE, Mass, September 8.—A hairbreadth rescue of nine per- sons whose boat sank in the wind- swept waters of Nantucket Sound put them back safely on shore today— the shore they thought .they never would see again. Only the timely arrival of the| schooner Daiquiri, while seven of the party tossed about in a small dinghy and two others clung to the mast of the sinking craft, averted a tragic end to a holiday yatching party. The party left Nantucket yester- day morning. It had sailed from New Bedford last Saturday for a leisurely holiday week end cruise. As their 50-foot yawl Rondenella struck the middle of the sound, lashed by a strong southwester, the seams opened and the five men aboard took turns at a small hand pump and bailed. Gradually the Rondenella sank below her water line. Capt. *Clarence Higgins of New Bedford headed the craft for Vineyard Haven, approximately 3 miles away. At noon the water invaded the en- gine room. Three hours later Capt. Higgins ordered the four women into the dinghy. “It was the original intention for the men to remain aboard as long #s possible,” said Howard Sawyer of Boston, one of those saved, “but the Rondenella listed sharply, tossing Philip E. Lawrence of Boston into the dinghy and James C. Riley of ‘Winchester into the water. “Those in the dinghy pulled Riley ®board. Later I fell in and was hauled in. too. That left Bernard Bheridan of New York and Capt. Hig- gins on the boat. They cut the sail ropes and that righted the yawl for & while. “While they were clinying to the mast we lost an oar and my wife plunged in after it. She reached the oar, but was unable to return. I thought she was gone, in fact none of us thought we would see land. “Mrs. Riley, fully dressed as was my wife, went after Mrs. Sawyer and together they reached the boat. Not long after the Daiquiri came in view. ' “They came to us first because there were more of us and then we | went for Capt. Higgins and Sheridan. Both were clinging to the top of the mast, the only part of the boat above water.” The Daiquiri, a 58-foot schooner purchased yesterday by Frederick G. Crane, took the nine weary and bat- tered men and women to Wianno. All praised the rescue efforts of the Paiquiri, “They did a great job” Sawyer said. “It looked pretty tough for a while.” OLD GUN TO.BE CHECKED | .

KLEEB 1100 H You Actually With Automa’rlc Hea’r Break With Hanfstaengl Seen Confirmed at Party Sessions. By the Associated Press. NURNBERG, Germany, September 8.—Adolf Hitler, like a Caesar of old, dramatically entered this city of 800, 000 Nazis today. ‘With Nurnberg plastered with post- ers proclaiming bolshevism “world enemy No. 1,” the Reichsfuehrer ar- rived late in the afternoon for the fourth annual party convention. He will speak Monday night. Hours prior to his arrival, the 3- mile road from the airport to the rather modest hotel “Deutscher Hof” had been lined with expectant throngs. Their enthusiasm knew no bounds when Der Fuehrer's open car passed slowly by with Hitler, bare-headed and upright, agaln and again giving the Nazi salute. He wore the tradi- tional brown shirt. Meanwhile, Otto Dietrich, Hitler's press chief, addressed newspaper cor- respondents and extolled the Nazi form of governmient as the “most modern democracy in history.” Hanfstaengl Break Seen. At the same time, contrary to some predictions, Dr. Ernst Hanfstaengl, Harvard-educated chief of the for- eign press section of the propaganda ministry, arrived promptly for the convention's first reception and was greeted warmly by other prominent Nazis, In well-informed party circles it was stated that the Puehrer's tem- peramental friend, although here for the convention sessions, will not play a prominent role. This tended to confirm what had been an open secret for more than a year—that Hanfstaengl no longer stands as high with Hitler as he once did. ‘Today he lifted a shaggy eyebrow | when asked about reports he had ' been dropped from his post and an- | swered: “Not that I know anything | about.” He admitted, however, he would not | hold any further foreign press recep- tions following this convention. Entering Nurnberg, Der Fuehrer was | visible throughout the line of march, not only to those who stood in the first or second rows along the curb- | ing, but also to those farther away. Thousands of amateur cameras clicked, unheard in the roars of “hells.” Goebbels, Goering Present. Hitler's car was only one of a ze- ries. Dr. Paul Joseph Goebbels, Gen. Hermann Wilhelm Goering, Rudolf Hess, Helnrich Himmler and other prominent Nazis all formed part of the procession of entry. Together they went to the Deuueher Hof. This hotel is where Hitler lived when his movement was the butt of official jokes, and when a hotel owner | risked having his windows smashed if he harbored the “terrible” Ngzis. Dr. Dietrich, the national press | chief of the Nazi movement, enter-| | tained both German and foreign press | at coffee. sandwiches and cakes.

SCOUTS AID HUNT FOR MISSING BABY Will Comb Area Ten Miles Square—-Kidnaping Is One Theory. By the Associated Press. DETROIT, September 8.—A boy scout army mobilized today to assist in the search for 18-menths-old Harry Browe, who vanished from his per- | ambulator in Clark Park Saturday. Police decided upon a minute gearch of the neighborhood of the | park before pushing a more wide- spread hunt for clues, already begun in several nearby States. They sent out a call to scoutmasters for boys to comb an area 10 miles square, under the direction of student patrol- men. - The authorities were working on three theories: ‘That the child may have been in- jured in a fall from his carriage, and his brothers, Charles, 9, and | Edward, 7, who were taking him for an airing, parents. The older boys admitted the baby had fallen when the in- | cident was reported by a witness. That a childless woman, or couple, | may have kidnaped him. The baby's brothers told substantially the same story of leaving him in the care of a woman who gave them money for candy. They also described a man who was loitering nearby.
