New York and Chicago have been linked by air route for the first time in history. Daring airmen, and just as daring air women, had sought to win the honor previously, but it re- mained for a United States army ofFi- cer to aitain the goal in a regulation army airplane. The distance, estimat- ed at 727 miles, was covered Satur day by Captain E. ¥. White six hours and fifty minutes without = stop between the two cities.

CEERUUROE A CRISIS POSTPONED. Italy's territorial claims again at- tract attention as the cycle of crises at Paris whirls around although the postponement of the opening of the Italian parffament will afford oppor- tunity for discussion. It was reported that Premier Orlando and Toreign Minister Sonnino insisted on an im- mediate decision concerning Italy’s claims as they desired to report pariiament, which was scheduled open tomorrow.

CEEVVLEVO FAIRBANKS AND BARRYMORE. Score another victory for the mo- ton pictures. The profound minds of Princeton, as represented by the senfor class, have registered a prefer- ence for Douglas Fairbanks over John Barrymore on the vote for the faver- ite actor, despite the fact that Barry- more is hailed along Broadway as the leading interpreter of the drama America today. Tho ballot was part of the class statistics in which the members of the class made may To in known their favorites in several lines. The stars of filmland also receive majorities in the vote for the favorite actiess, being preferred to the women of the so-called legitimate stage. Nor- ma Talmadge wins first honors with Eisie Ferguson, Marguerite Constance Talmadge and Madge I<en- nedy following in the order named. The Princeton incident is iliustra- tive of the great change that been wrought in the past decade. Most people can remember the crude flim entertainments of ten years ago with} flickering machines, frequent n the strip and the customary quest to the audience to exerclse 1 tience while the operator in the gal- lery booth devoted a minute to the change of reels.
