ENTMT SUT| Dedicated Quarter Century 4go Judge Urges Airplane Also to Speed Up Picture Trial New York, Feb. 28 (P—The cable and the long distance telephone were used today to help speed up the trial of Mrs. Andree Lardoux Hahn's $500,000 suit against Sir Jo- Juveen over “La Belle Ferron- ven those means of communica- tion, however, weren't tast enough for Supreme Court Justice Black. When a witness testified that an X-ray picture of the Louvre's “La Belie” was in the Kogg art museum at Hurvard, he urged that an air- plane be dispatched to bring the ncgative here so that the trial, now in its fourth week, might be- con- cluded today if possible. Cablegram Is Sent There was some doubt, however, as to whether the 1'ogg museum and the Louvre would rclease the nega- tive so that it might be compared with X-ray photos of Mrs. Hahn's canvas, which Sir Joseph has called a copy of the Louvre picture. So a cublegram was sent to Paris re- questing permission and Professor Allan Burroughs, of the museum staff, phoned up to Cambridge to sce how the museum felt about it. Meanwhile, court adjourned for luncheon. Professor Burroughs, as a wit- ness, divulged the presence of the Louvre La Belle X-ray in Cam- bridge. Members of the jury, some- what wearied by the long art bat- tle, immediately asked to sec it, contending that as laymen they should have the actual negative, rather than a print, for purposes of comparison with the negatives of the Hahn painting. The courtroom was darkened as the morning session opcned and the Huhn films were mounted on an il- luminated screen. Professor Bur- roughs an expert on the X-raying of paintings, traced lights and shadows on the negatives which he said proved to him that the picture had never been done on wood in the studio of lconardo da Vinci. Mrs. Hahn contends that her canvas is a Leonardo. Sir Joscph says it isn't. RAILROADS TAKE OVER EXPRESS FIRM TONIGHT Same Personnel Will Function and Business Will Be Carrled on Without Change.

Some interesting highlights in Charles Darwin's life and his con- tribution to the world, were given today in gn address by Rev. Francis T. Cooke of Bristol during the reg ular Rotary luncheon at the Bur- ritt hotel. The speaker related some of fhe many incidents in the scientist’s lite, stressing chiefly his three great characteristics, modesly, courage and hard work. He stated that Dar- win himself laughed at many of the jokes relative to the then widely dis- cussed subject of evolution, but de- spite the many obstacles and hard- ships encountered in his work, he carried on his studies of nature. He was a home-loving person and stud- ied his children with as mu~h inter- est as he did birds and animals, the speaker said. President William H.

LINDY AND ANNE AGAIN TAKE AR (Continued from First Page) was with him yesterday when their plane overturncd on landing at Val- buena airfield, a wheel having been lost, was reported to be resting. The colonel, Mrs. Dwight W¥ Mor- row and Anne and Elizabeth Morrow planned to motor over to Ambassa- dor Morrow's country house at Cuenavaca later in the day. The colonel, still driving his auto- mobile with one hand, visited Val- buena field again this morning and looked over the damaged plane. He was accompanicd by his flancee. Roth told pcople at the field that they were feeling fine. More Wedding Rumors The plans for motoring to Cuerna- vaca gave rise to the usual crop of rumors that “Carlos” and “Anita” would be married there. In some | usually well-informed circles it was believed that the, engaged pair and the Morrow family were considering the idea of having a wedding at the country residence of the ambe dor while the colonel is on his pres- ent visit to Mexico. Any authoritative information from ecither the principals or from the embassy continued to be un- available, First Thought 'or Anne Colonel Lindbergh had the pain of a wrenched shoulder and a badly damaged airplane to remind him of the narrowness of their escape, Mis Morrow fared better. Bulking large against the memory of fright and mild shock was. the knowledge of her fiance's having thought and act- ed first for her in an emergency which threatened their lives, The full measure of this gallan- try and skill in the air was revealcd only as closcly guarded sccrets of the excursion into the clouds became known, % After leaving Valbucna air field yesterday with a small bag packed with sandwiches Colonel Lindbergh and Miss Morrow flew to a nearby spot for a plenic lunch. In the take-off for the return trip the air- plane lost its right wheel, probably. it is now believed, because a me. chanic greasing it had falled to re- fasten the cotter key which held it to the axle. Flying back to Valbuena fle'd it S Colonel Lindbergh's thoughts were on his predicament, and how best to emerge from it. Finally he reached over to Miss Morrow, seat- ed at his side, and told her, above the roar of the motor, they probably would turn over when they landed. Explosion Precautions He showed her how to take the cushions from the plane's seats and place them around her bedy, with others about her head so that the shock of the crash would be lessen- ed. Then, to guard against explo- sion of the gasoline when the plane turned over he maneuvered back and forth over the field until all but the dregs in the tank were ex- hausted. He waved to army mechanics and officers below, pointing to his dam- aged landing gear, and then shot out of space onto the land, lighting gracefully on one wheel and the tal skid. It seemed for a moment the plane would come to rcst without mishap, but the loose end of the axle struck the ground and it ca- reened forward, and turned over, first on its nose and then on its back. Field attendants helped the avi- ator and Miss Morrow, the latter ob- viously badly frightened, through the windows to the ground. Lind- bergh's first word, turning to her were, “Are you all right?” She noticed he grasped his right shoulder, as if in pain, but when he protested he was not hurt she al- lowed him to escort her off the field to an embassy car, which took them to Mexico City. There at the Mor- row home he remarked after a while the pain in his shoulder was grow- ing more intense, and Mrs. Morrow insisted on calling a physician. oulder Thrown Out Dr. Sydney Unfelder discovered the shoulder was dislocated. An ef- fort was made to administer an anaesthetic at the Morrow home but when this failed the aviator was taken to the Lady Cowdray hospital for the operation. Within two hours he emerged; his right arm and shoulder bandaged heavily and shrouded in a gray overcoat, and insisted on driving an automobile with Miss Morrow and her sister Elizabeth to Valbuens field to inspect his plane and the camage done to it. He used his left hanl in driving. The sight of the plane, propeller twisted, one wing smashed, and landing gear gone, brought a frown to his face. Then he smiled, ga: some instructions looking to its ge- pair, and brushing aside would be questioners, went back to the em- bassy. he evening he spent in the bosom of the Morrow family with Anne, and friends of the ambassador. Colonel Lindbergh expressed a de- sire to sce Hal Mangum, owner of a ranch in Chihuahua where he once hunted. Mangum with his wife was registered at the Regis Hote! here and visited the aviator when he learned he was wanted. What was learned of the accident did not come from Colonel Lind- bergh or his fiancce. To reporters, friends and army officers alike after the crash he made only his sphinx |like remark, “I have nothing to say,” when they asked him where he had been, and where he had lost the wheel to his plan “dust a Mishap” He did broaden his remarks a little as he left the field to go to the embassy. “This is not an dcci- dent. It's just a mishap.” he said. He is understood to have told friends also that Anne bore up bravely throughout their ordeal and did not hamper him in any way in 'his mancuvering to bring the plane down. Throughout he would not indi- cate where the two went for their picric. The plane which crashed was the four passenger Travelair monoplane “City of Wichita,” borrowed last week by the aviator for his flight here to be with his fiancee. At the field it was belleved repairs could /&(\;eh wm \bc ik th f > ™ w(’\wt} Anguhere ] be made without too great difficulty, although these are likely to take several days. It was not known what effect the crash would have on the plans ef Colonel Lindbergh and Miss More row. Friends however secemed to think he would await the of his plane here, or possibly borrow another plane for the‘flight back te the United States. There has ag yet, of course, been no announcement as to the date or place of their mar. riage and these plans remain as much a mystery as ever, First Time For Lindy New York, Feb. 38 (M—The type of accident which befell Colonel Charles A. Lindbergh at Mexico City is not uncommon, but it has occurred more often in the early days of flying than in recent years. Although “Lucky Lindy” has had escapes from death in his flying career and several minor “mishaps” —as he characterizes the Mexican incident—he has npever had this particular kind of trouble before, ro far as known. The most notable example of landing under similar circumstances was that of Clarence D, Chamberiin at Mitchel Field in April, 1937. That was a thrilling experience which pilots at the Long Island fiy- ing flelds still tell about as one of aviation's epics of courage and skill. Chamberiin's Escape Chamberlin, with two little girls as passengers in the monoplane Columbia, which later made a trans- atlantic hop, took the air om Sunday afternoon in the presence of a great crowd. As the plane roared down the runway, the left side of his landing gear was jolted off. Other pilots, realizing the danger, took the air in another lane and signalled to Chamberlin that his plane was damaged. For an hour Chamberlin flew over the flying fields. His mechanic, John Carisi, dumped the said bags used for bal- last and tucked the little girls~—one of whom was a daughter of Charles A. Levine—into the fuselage and covered them with cushions. Meanwhile, the spectators watched the manecuvers with bated breath. Soldiers held the crowd in check. An ambulance was wheeled on the fleld for emergencies. Finally, Chamberlin got ready for the land- ing. Gracefully, he started the ma- chine to the earth, after picking the best landing place possible, and the plane bounced along the turf so gently that no one was hurt and his little passengers never knew of the danger. The Columbia was only slightly damaged and soon afterwards made the historic flight to Germany. Slander Suit Verdict Arguments Tomorrow Arguments on the motions to set aside the verdict in the slander and libel case of Chief W. C. Hart of the police department against Peter J.
