31 STATIONS WILL BROADCAST ‘LINDY’ Washington Ceremonies Will Be Put on the Air Washington, June 9.—(#— Amer- ica's huge radio machinery in a continuous eleven hour period next Saturday will be devoted to broad- asting the name and fame of the hero aviator, Colonel Charles A. Lindbergh, For the first time in history thirty-seven stations throughout the United States, associated with the National Broadcasting Company which announced the plan today, will be solely used in presenting the addresses and description of the na- tional capital’s welcome and recep- tion of the 25 year old New York to Paris flyer to America’s radio audi- ence of 30,000,000 persons. The program will start at 12 noon, the time of Lirdbergh's arrival at Wash- ington, and will close at 11 p. m. that night. Three outstanding features will be | broadcast in the radio tribute to the pilot—his welcome and decoration | with the distingulshed flying cross by President Coolidge at the Wash- ington monument and his addresses at the receptions of the Natlonal Press club and the Minnesota State soctety. Another Decoration Another decoration has been add- ed to the long list of honors to b heaped upon the aviator on his re- turn here from Europe with the award of the Cross of Honor of the United States Flag association. For- mer Secretary of State Hughes, senlor founder of the assoclation, will present the cross to Lindbergh | who is expected to attend the asso- | ciation's vesper flag services at the capitol Sunday evening. The asso- ciation’s citation in the award said it was “in recognition of his con- splcuous service to the flag through his marvelous achievement which | was emphasized so strongly in the| cyes of the entire world the hopes, | aspirations and destiny of the| American people as symbolized by the flag of the United States.” | Although nearly every minute of Colonel Lindbergh's stay in Wash-| ington until Monday morning has | been allotted to welcoming cere- | monies, many patriotic and other| societies which are desirous of pay- ing tribute to the aviators will be unsuccessful in securing his appear- ance at their exercises. Invitations to scores of ceremonies and func- tions have been showered upon the semi-official committee in charge of his welcome, Washington Affairs But outside of two receptions on Saturday night and the laying of a wreath on the Unknown Soldier's | tomb on Sunday, together with a visit to the Walter Reed hospital, and participation in the flag service it is unlikely Colonel Lindbergh will attend any other affair.

Principal W. C. French of the Central Junior High school objected on the ground that serious admini- strative difficulties would result with the division of the pupils. He ques- tioned whether conditions at the school were such that the best edu- cational possibilities would be ob- tained. “While we have the old Bur- ritt school, §hich according to Mr. Holmes is usable, and we neglect to put it into service we have no ex- cuse for asking more money from the taxpayers to build new schools,” Butler said in answer to the objec- tions. He agreed that its use should be temporary, but insisted that the acute shortage of accommodations which will be encountered in the fall should be met with as little out- lay as possible, Mrs. Laura P. Mangan, another member of the committee, agreed with the plan for use of the old building, declaring it to be the proper spirit of economy. Committeeman George LeWitt did | not object to use of the building on a temporary basis. “When we have come to a situation where we must use this schoolhouse again, it must be apparent to the parents of chil- dren attending school and to the tax- payers that the talk about the need Rid Me Of Piles Suffered For Years; Says “The Only Remedy That’s Any Good.” John O'Leary, 297 North Division Street, Buffalo, for 14 years Super- visor of the Second ward, wants to pass the good word along. “Take it from me” says . “When you suffer torment with piles for many vears as I did, and tried all kinds of remedies with- out any success, you'll be -glad to say a good word for the only rem- edy that is any good. “Peterson’s Olntment rid me of piles so quickly that I was aston- ished.

Superintendent Holmes favored the use of the old Burritt buyding in preference to installing portable schools, the alternative faced by the school board. He called attention to the fact that 200 pupils will be unable to find accommodations at Central Junior High school in the fall and it was at his suggestion that an informal gathering at the Senior High school, was held. Provides 14 Class Rooms The plan which is expected to be proposed to the board for adoption provides for the shifting of the shop classes from what was formerly kno as the Prevocational building on Elm street to the building at the corner of Main and East Main streets and providing through this shift 14 class rooms. Alterations to the old building are expected to cost about $10,000, but it was pointed out Gay — which that this class room.
