LIVELY MEETING
OF GAME LEAGUE
Working with committees from Wa-
tonga. Geary, Calumet, Yukon and
Bethany, as well as a committee from
the Oklahoma City chapter of the
Izaak Walton league, an attempt will
be made by the local chapter to have
a workable fish ladder constructed
at the Oklahoma City reservoir dam,
It was decided at the meeting of the
Izaak Walton league Monday night.
Reports indicated that thousands of
fish accumulated below the dam where
they are caught and transferred Into
the reservoirs where a charge is made
for fishing. The ladder at the dam was
only constructed to comply with the
law and has never been used. The
Came Commission will be asked to
take necessary steps to put the ladder
In use so that fish can continue up
the river and benefit fishing in the
river in this vicinity.
The committee on location for a
fish hatchery was continued with in-
structions to report the locations as
soon as possible so that a representa-
tive from the Game Department can
Inspect and approve the site.
A box picnic and dance wil be given
at Concho during the month according
to the entertainmeni committee. Pro-
ceeds of the box supper will be used in
promoting the conservation idea and
for prizes to be given in the sparrow
contest. A resolution asking that
Game Ranger Goodwin be assigned to
this county was passed by the club,
and a drive will be made on game
and fish law violators in this locality.
Fish from the present hatchery will
be distributed this fall. Applications
in the hands of Ralph Schwartz at
present will nearly deplete the supply
and arrangements to secure additional
crappie and perch are being made.
4500 bass are in the Hatchery accord-
ing to Mr. Schwartz’s report.
Members were asked to refer re-
quests from farmers for trees to the
Secretary of the Club.

Victorian Modesty Back;
But Only in Furniture
LONDON—OP)—Victorian modesty
is having a rebirth in London with the
result that table legs again are being
draped and the "bare” sides of up-
right pianos hung with silk.
Footstools, pin-cusliions and even
portieres figure in the renaissance.
Victorian jewelry also Is being re-
vived, due largely to American girls,
who are buying early Victorian
brooches and stomachers and having
them reset as pendant earrings.
Furniture drapes are chosen to har-
monize with the color scheme of each
room. Only the smallest stumps of
table legs are permitted to show be-
neath their silk or muslin "trousers.”

BIRDMEN BLAZE
NEW AIR ROUTE
ROME, July 10.—Tho Pathfinder
lived up to its name today by blazing
the first direct aerial rout from Amer-
ica to Rome.
The silver and green American
monoplane of Roger Q. Williams and
Lewis A. Yancey of New York came
to rest at Littorio air drome here at
9:30 p. m. completing a one-stop flight
from Old Orchard. Me.
At 8:40 p. m. the Pathfinder was
listed as overdue here and the air
ministry began sending inquiries to
the various flying fields within a ra-
dius of 60 miles of Rome as f wheth-
er the piano had been foiced down.
SANTANDER. Spain, July 10.—The
American trans-Atlantic flyers Roger
Q. Williams aud Lewis A. Yancey
flew their monoplane Pathfinder
from here for Rome at 11:18 n. m.
today.
The aeronautical ministry at Rome
was expecting the Pathfinder’s arriv-
al at about 7 p. m., calculating the fly-
ing speed of the plane at about 110
miles an hour, Inasmuch as reports
indicated fair weather all along their
Mediterranean route.
They arose at 8:30 a. m. and went
by automobile to the field five miles
away where to the native surprise
they landed yesterday.
Yancey before departing told tho
United Press that they saw practic-
ally nothing on their flight from
Maine to Spain excepting the l; ,ht of
a ship at 3 a. m. Tuesday. Williams
was asleep at the time. "I made a
fast dive toward the ship, so much
that it awakened Williams who cried
‘For God's sake don’t do that again.’
I told him I did it because I was anx-
ious for the world to know we were
still flying.”
Captain Yancey requested the
United Press correspondent to trans-
mit. the following message to the
United States.
“Hello everybody. The success of
our trans-Atlantic flight in great meas-
ure is due to the cooperation of the
United States weather bureau and
the United States coast guard. Also
Lt. Meika who followed us to sea for
200 miles with an airplane as a pre-
cautionary measure.”
Williams said he understood the
party had broken the over water rec-
ord.
“We covered 3,400 miles over wa-
ter,” he said "while tho Southern
Cross between Honolulu and Aus-
tralia covered 3.180 miles and of
course we flew 30 miles further than
did the Yellow Bird.
"Yancey showed great energy and
remained at the wheel for a total of
20 hours whilo keeping good track of
the route on the map. This enabled
us to reach the exact point on the
peninsula which we had figured to
reach.”
Yancey’s statement was: "We’ll do
it the next time”, revealing that Bel-
lanea already has in preparation, con-
struction of another plane with a
bigger gas storage as well as wider
landing gear.
DEATH TOLL 24
IN SEA MISHAP
PORTSMOUTH, England. July 10.—
The position of tho British subma-
rine 11-47 sunk yesterday in tbe Irish
sea has been ascertained it was re-
ported today. Air crafts which had
been sent out from here to aid lr. lo-
cating (he sunken craft have been
ordered to return.
Tho deaths in the disaster were
placed at 24 today by V. A. Alexander
First Lord of the Admiralty. This In-
cluded the member of tho L-12 crew
who died last night from injury.
Tho submarine 1. 69 sister ship of
tbe L-12 dived continuously today in
mountainous seas attempting to com-
municate by sound telegraphy with
the sunken craft. A bell was used
with the Morse code but no reply was
forthcoming.
The preliminary report of Rear Ad-
miral II. E. Grace said ”1 am con-
vinced there is no possibility that any
of tho crew of the H-47 remained alive
more than a very few minutes. The
weather is against successful efforts
to re3ctto tho sunken vessel.”

Grave of Baron Stiegel
Found After Long Search
Medic Scores Modern
Conditions of Living
OKLAHOMA CITY. July 10.—(IP) -
Branding man as a "puny runt,” and
saying that middle-aged men are dy-
ing faster than ever before because j
they are “too lazy to work, too grog- ]
gy to exercise and too stupid to
think,” Dr. William A. McKeever,
Oklahoma City physician, assailed our
modern way of living.
“Over eating, lack of exercise and
loss of habit of creative thinking to
the negatives and neglects which ex-
act the death penalty from so many
men still in their prime,” the doctor
said. “With machines which do our
work, our thinking and then figure
out our profits, man has become a
Puny runt in comparison to what God
planned him to he when He created
him with a vast store house of ener-
gies.”
BOILING SPRINGS, Pa., July 10—
(IP)—Turo weathered stone grave
markets, on tho lawn of the home of
J. C. Bucher here, mark the last rest-
ing place of Baron Henry Stiegel, who
founded Manheim. Pa., and manufact-
ured the now famous glassware which
bears bis name.
Specimens of Stiegel glassware
bring thousands of dollars as anti-
ques. 4
Tho Bucher home, a fine specimen
of Colonial architecture in a good
state of preservation is believed to
have been I Im last homo of the Baron
who died almost penniless. Baron
Stiegel is now believed to have died
within the walls of the building, which
was then tbe home of Michael Edge.
Mrs. John Robertson, of Mechantcs-
burg, Pa., said to be the last living
descendant of the Baron located the
graves through records in an old fam-
ily Bible.
The story is that Baron Stiegel,
hounded by misfortune and penniless,
went to the Edgo home for refuge and
in the dead of winter died. Heavy
snow necessitated tho burial on the
lawn, but it was planned to remove
the body to Manheim in the spring.
For soyie reason this plan was never
carried out.
Although the old family Bible, car-
ried the lale for some reason it was
never allowed to become public.
Mrs. Robertson, as the only living
descendant of tho famed Baron re-
ceived from the congregation of tbe
Zion Lutheran Church annually one
red rose.
This rose represents the rent on the
building housing the church, which
originally was constructed by Baron
Stiegel and presented to tbe church
for rental of one red rose eacli year.
It was provided by the Baron that
his oldest descendant receive the
"rose rental” following his death.
Members of the congregation of the
church and of the Lancaster Histor-,
ical Association are, investigating the
locating of the grave and plan to re-
move tbe body to a more suitable!
grave in Manheim.

Extend Blossom Time
On University Campus
NORMAN, Okla.—Discriminate em-
ployment of perennial plants nnd tho
careful rotation of annuals on the 160
acre campus of tho University of

of a program which results in a glori-

late fall is an expensive proposition
requiring the ceaseless endeavor of
staff of nine gardeners. Craven said.
Tulips, hyacinths, lilacs, redbud,
dogwood, goiden hells, spirea, mock
orange nnd Siberian peas usher In the
spring season. Close in their wake
come the larkspurs, butterfly bush,
crepe myrtle and many southern
shrubs which have been Introduced on
tile campus with great success.
To provide for the many flowering
plants now evidenced on the campus,
spring annuals were removed from
their beds and replaced by young
plants. Hardy phlox.marigolds, petun-
ias, snap dragons, columbine, calen
bells,
zenla and gladioli are the nost popu-
lar summer flowers, the landscape
gardner pointed out.
