Hender- “ann, Jr., wealthy young sportsman and son of a former mayor of Mi- ami, Fla. Hender.son's appearance here leads back, it is said, to the slaying a | month ago of Frankie Yale, or Dale, Brooklyn gangster. Yale, a former | associate of “Scarface Al” Capone, | Chicago racketeer, was shot down lin a quiet Brooklyn street from a | speeding automobile. | Capone Mentioned | The name of Capone was brought linto the investigation when police learned Yale had broken relations | with him, a short time before his {death. The gun used in the slay- |Ing was found by police to have been |purchased in Miami, now the home 1of Capone, | Henderson's name came into the | {case because of his friendship for |Capone, with whom he was frequent- ly seen in Miami. Capone recently used Henderson as a go-between in buying a home on Palm Island, one {of the exclusive residential islands |in Biscayne Bay between Miami and Miami Beach, after he had been or- dered to leave town. The home was | purchased from Mayor J. Newton Lummus. Comes Voluntarily The young Miami sportsman, de- {tectives said, came here voluntarily, although he was accompanled by Chiet of Police Guy Reeve of Mi. ami. The police were very reticent in discussing the affair, refusing even to admit that Henderson was in the | city. It was learned, however, that | he spent more than an hour closet- ed with Inspector John D. Coughli in command of the detective div sion. Henderson is 25 years old. His| father, now dead. was mayor of Mi- ami during the boom days.

The woman who once held both the duration and long distance flght records has retired to private life and is now living in Santa Fe, the wife of M. A. Otero, Jr., state audi- tor of New Mexicon and himself an accomplished aviator. In 1918, Miss Stinson tried to en- ter the American air force as a pur- suit pilot. Rejected on account of her sex, she took to driving an am- bulance In France. This broke her health, and for seven years she was an invalid, Only recently has her health returned; and now that it has she is content to let her famous brother, Eddie Stinson, of Detroit, do the flying for the family. But although she is out of the game, she does not feel envious of the women who are winning fame as flyers. She used to dream of flying the Atlantic, in the days when airplanes an engines capable of making the trip had not yet been so much about it and realized how impractical it was for n that 1 simply decided to forget it, that's ! all. | “Please understand that such | problems, through personal neces- | sity ceased to interest me, as an avi. |ator, years ago, But I'm still as en- | thusiastic as ever over the progress lof aviation, especially women's part |in it.

One.of them”—turning and glancing about the garden in which | she was glving the interview—is to jdiscover how that flower bed be- Jcame trampled down.” | Housekeeping Like Flying | When the reporter arrived to in- terview Mrs. Otero, he found her | busily engaged in mending a brok- {en screen. When the reporter com- | mented on the great contrast be- |tween flying an airplane and keep- ing house, Mrs. Otero remarke “There isn't as much contrast as you would think. You see. as a housewife I am repairing this screen. As an aviator I often spent hours at a time working on the fabh- ric of my airplane wings after they had been damaged in forced land- ings or otherwise. I think my early training prepared me for my present dutles Some time ago Mrs. Otero hecame jInterested in the architecture of the ing at all. Yet at the height of her career her achievements were known all over the world. Made Many Records She w the 148th person to be- | licensed pilot in America. ! Few living people hold lower licens numbers. When she sailed aloft one | night in California and., with mag- | nesium flares, traced a series of let- ters against the black sky, she complished something that no fly er had ever done. She was. incident. ally, the first person of either sex | to fly at night, the fourth to loop the loop, and the first woman to fly in the Orient. | She conducted a flying school in Texas before the World War, and when the American army punitive expedition war she made herself useful in ev- ery way possible. Her most nofe- worthy flight was a trip from Buf- falo to Washington in the interest of | the Red Cross, in which she made various stops en route to pick up ichecks totaling $2,000,000 in value. | d day in Middletown, on August | duets by 5 a Grotto outing at Bridgeport and | doly 1 Lund and Francie Clynes.
