Rene Racover, business manager for the fliers, said they would begin shortly a tour of the United States, a gesture of good will from France to America. The route, he said, would be the same good will trail blazed by Colonel Liodbergh. Complete Prize Flight The flight from New York to Dallas ended yesterday at 5:20:45 p. m., after 11 hours and 34 minutes in the air, made thé French Atlantic conquerors eligible for a purse of *$25,000 offéred by Col. William E. Easterwood, Dallas millionaire. Colonel Eastersood, in a long dis- tance telephone conversation with the, Dallas Morning .News, said he was flying from London to Paris im- mediately to make arrangement with the French air ministry for presen- ‘tation of the purse, either in Paris, New York or Dallas. When the scarlet plane flashed into view yesterday®and came to rest after circling Love field, police and national guardsmen were power- legs to restrain the cheering, milling thbusands who pressed forward to hail the heroes, after hours of tense waiting. Rifles, clubs and the mounts of guardsmen formed a barried inad- equate to curb the throng. Finally the fliers made their way to the ad- ministration building, Where they gpoke a few words into a micro- phone, while guards continued to oppose the crowd. B Later Coste and Bellonte, sitting on the folded top of an automobile, smiled and waved at banks of cheer- ing spectators as they paraded through the city. Prepare for Banquet Quartered in Colonel Easterwood’s personal suite, the French airmen prepared for a banquet Wwith police uaiding their doors. 5 ]r‘x\dh ehort interview Captain Coste gaid the success of his flight. was due to preparation. At the banquet the voyageurs of the air were of- ficially welcomed to Texas by Cullen F. Thomas, Dallas attorney, in be- half of Governor Dan Moody. The airmen expressed their pleasure at the reception. They were presented gilver plaques as a souvenir of theit visit. The airmen were pleased to learn that' the Question Mark was undam- aged by the melee at Love field. Im- mediately after the landing it was placed in a hangar, inspected by a picked crew of mechanics and placed under a heavy guard of po- lice and firemen. Louisville Prepares Louisville, Kv., Sept. 5 (#—Taken by surprise by the announcement Dieudonne Coste and Maurice Bel- lonte, French transatlantic fliers, would stay overnight here on their return trip from Dallas to New York, Louisville made hasty plans today to welcorme the airmen. Mayor William B. Harrison met the aviation committee of the Louis- ville board of trade and the Louis- ville air board this morning to make arrangements for entertaining the aviators, expected to arrive in the Falls city some time this afterroon. Rene Racover, American represen- tative of the airmen, who in a mono- plane accompanied the French Se quiplane from New York to Dallas, stopped at Bowman field vesterday and said Coste and Bellonte would probably refuel here on the return trip, but made no mention that Louisville would be their third over- night stop in this country. Good Will Tour Arranged New York, Sept. 5 (P—As a ges- ture of friendship from the people of France to the people of America, Dieudonne Coste and Maurice Bel- lonte will make a tour of the United States in their transatlantic plane, *“Question Mark.” The flight will be made Wwith the cooperation\of the state department, the depa-tment of commerce and the French embassy. Arrangements are in the hands of a committee headed by Charles Hayden of Hay- den, Stone & Company, New York bank A The itinerary has not been an- nounced; but Captain Coste, in Dal- las last night, said: . “We will follow Colonel Lind- bergh's trail over the United States as a gesture of friendship from the people of France to the people of America.” He said Morrow which would days. Ambassador Dwight W. was sponsoring the flight, consume about 40 Government Approves Hayden in accepting chairmanship ©of the committee said: “The good-will tour has the full approval of the government of the United States. The French embassy in Washington is prepared to grant the French fliers permission to ac- cept the invitation of the commit- tee to make the tour. “We have been further assured that the aeronautics branch of the department of commerce will coop- erate to the fullest extent to make the flight a success. “The itinerary will be announced from time to time as it is determined by the committee.” One of the points at which it has been suggested the French fliers stop is Cleveland to place a wreath on the grave of Ambassador Myron T. Her- rick. Ambassador Herrick was host to Col. Lindbergh when he landed in Paris in 1927 and advised Coste on plans for his flight to New York.

Good Roads Sound Hartford, Sept. 5 (UP)—The day | of the “little red schoolhouse™| rapidly is passing, due to changes in rural education made possible by good roads and better teacher-train- ing, Connecticut’s new commissioner | of education, Dr. Ernest W. Butter- field, said today. v Dr. Butterfield, who ofticially un- | dertook his duties this week, made | this statement i an interview with the United Press in which he dis- | cussed such problems as loss of | young teachers through marriage, teacher-training, function of the state in education, standardized | methods and college training. A graduate of Dartmouth college, the new commissioner came to Connec- ticut from New Hampshire, where he held a similar post, to succeed Dr. Alpert B. Meredith. “By'keeping the highways open the year around,” Dr. Butterfield ex- | plained, “the state has made pos- sible the ecrection of six, eight ana ten-room country schools in place of the old ome-room schools. . “This growth .of larger school units in rural districts is of untold advantage to the educational sys- tem as a whole,” he continued. “The farmer gradually is-iearning that the monetary value of his farm is not lessened by the fact that the | district school is not ‘just down the road’ He is learning that buses |are making possible far better | schools than anything he enjoyed as a boy.” Marriage Creates Problem The larger number of potential teachers graduated each year makes it possible to supply even small rural schools with instructors of a high type today, the commissioner pointed out. A problem of concern to authori- ties, he said, is that of the young teacher who marries within a few vears after beginning to teach. “Of course we cannot demand that our teachers lead a life of celibacy—that is decidedly wrong.” he added. Discussing tr¥ining of teachers, Dr. Buttérfield declared “the trend is now toward a four-year college course of preparation rather than the present two-year requirement.” This, he explained, “would serve to draw to the profession a larger number of those who intend to make it a life work. “The -state should serve as a co- ordinating force to unify the vari- ous educational systems used in the many cities and towns’ said the commissioner. It should point thc way to improvement and serve as i clearing house for various ideas and programs of improved education.” Opposes “Mass” Education The new commissioner opposes the “mass” idea in education. Such methods as intelligence tests, segre- gation of backward children and stanbiardized forms of education, while “highly, desirable,” he said, can be carried to extremes. Dr. Butterfield believes it the duty of the high schools not only to prepare for college but to give a well-rounded training to those who will work in cities and on farms. He declined to discuss Connecti- cut’s specific problems, explaining he has not been here long enough to become familiar with the state's methods. He declared his intention, however, not to upset present pro- grams but rather to “work slowly along lines which to my mind will bring improvement and advance- meqt," $75,000 Yacht Burns to Cape May, N. J., Sept. 5 (P—The $75,000_yacht Clarella II, ‘owned by J. Howard Van Sciver, of Philadel- phina, lay ruined by fire here to- day. The fire was discovered in the engins room while dropping an | chor last night.
