After leaving Newfoundland last | night the liitle steel needle became ! his guide until he reaches Ircland. | On his long flight from San Digo to New York. Captain Lindbergh steered through the darkness by the little magnetic needle. Aided by a strong bresze behind him and driving his plane fast into the face of the sun, Lindbergh was in a position to cut short a six hour night to four hours. In the latitude through which he passed darkness does not settle until after 9 o'clock and dawn comes again very early in the raorning. There are probably not more than six hours of complcte darkness in the area at this season, and Lind- bergh should be able to cut down i the hours difference in sun time as | to gain two more hours of daylight. | He runs into a short period of dark- ness tonight just before he reaches Paris, Prominent Forestville Resident Dies At New Britain Hospital At Age of %4 — Drunken Driving Charge | Against Driver in Accident. Plans are well under way for the second annual fleld day and outing to be held at Lake Compounce on | the | Saturday, September 3, under auspices of the Connecticut Fish and Game commission, P. O'Connell of this city, general chairman of the affair last year, is acting in the same capacity this year. A meeting of the general commit- tee, consisting of the chairman and a delegate from each of the 60 sporting clubs of the state, has al- ready been held and several im- portant decisions reached. It was definitely determined to divide the fleld trials into two parts in order that more dogs may be accommodat. ed. Last year $0 applications were recelved from owners of high bred hunting dogs, but it was possible for only 40 to run. A coon dog trial, a new event, will be held this vear and if possible there will be a bench show for hunting dogs. The ky and bait casting events | this year will also be divided fnto two parts. this being done also to accommodate more entrles, and trap shooting will appear on the program as a double event. One of the biggest surprises of last year was the interest displayed in the archery contest. The com- mittee expected few or no entries to this ancient sport, but the event proved to be one of the most in- teresting on the entire program. Chairman O'Connell stated today that he had already received a number of inquiries as to whether such an event would be held this vear, which indicates that a large number of entries will be made before the entry list s closed. Another event decided upon 1s a horse shoe pitching contest. Many exponents of this game expressed disappointment last year because the sport was not listed on the u. in get- “Economical Andy” Mellon, treasury secretary, believes ting his_money’s worth out of a cigar.

Thousands of sports- men appeared at the resort and cach of the entrants brought a number of friends with him. Mr. O'Connell is of the belief that this vear's outing will eclipse the one of last year to a marked degree and it is for this reason that the preliminary arrangements are be- ing made early. Entry blanks will be ready for distribution within a few days. The need of returning entry blanksand securing tickets as early as possi. ble was particularly stressed by Chalrman O'Connell in order that all those desiring to attend may be vroperly taken care of.

Such an in- stance was ob: sterday in the Forestville scction of (he eity. A light truck of rather ancient vintage became stalled and all efforts on the part of the owner to get it started proved unavailing. Afier a consid- erable length of time, the horse, at- tached to a light delivery wagon, en- tered the picture and was immedi- ately drafted into service. When last seen it was jogging along unconeern- edly towing both his own wagon and the disabled truck. Drunken Driver Arrested John Jacobs of Kenney street, Forestville, was arrested last night on Broad street by Odicer Victor Chabot on charges of reckless driv- ing and operating an automobile while under the influence of liquor. The officer received a call at 9:45 P. m. of an automobile accident on Broad street just east of Preston and after recelving the statements of witnesses and noticing the condi- tion of Jacobs, he placed the man under arrest.
