American Dirigible Safe From Perils of Gas Explosions
Advantages of Helium Over Hydrogen Explained by H.P.Cady
FOUND IN KANSAS GAS
That such a distractor as that which overtook the British disgible the R-101 is practically impossible with light-er-than-air craft in America was the result of a fire extinguisher in Dr. H. P. Cady, head of the department of chemistry, in a radio talk.
"All American airships are filled with balloons, a non-inflatable and non-balanced spacecraft." "Airships of foreign countries, so far as we know, and certainly in the case of the United States, which has a higher greater lifting power than helium, but is highly easier to transport."
IVO, 41
Doctor Cady was the discovery of helium in natural gas, and is rated among the leading experts of this country on the subject.
Hydrogen gas, Doctor Cady pointed out, may look through the fabric of a jacket to the envelope in the air about it, this envelope, at the slightest spark, will explode instantly. For this reason he used an aluminum foil covered vicinity of hydrogen ballons or drip gibles, but because of the type of envelopes the R-101, smoking was permitted.
"Stories of the disaster are not clear as to the exact cause, but it is possible that the fire carried this envelope of hydrogen and air into the lounge where the passengers were sitting and smoking according to instructions. The striking of the dirigible against the ground, or even static electricity in the furnace, caused the spark that caused the disaster."
Doctor Cady told something of the discovery of helium gas in natural gas of Kansas, and the development of Kansas in railroad commerce in commercial quantities. Helium now costs about twice as much as hydrogen gas, but since it can be purified when air has mixed into it, and hydrogen is used more expensive in the long run.
Funeral Train Carrying Bodies of Eng lish Men Crosses France
R-101 Victims Are Honored
The R-101 disaster, Doctor Cady said, was the only major disaster to a hydrogen-infused balloon that he re-created in which any of the passengers escaped.
Beauvais, France, Oct. 7—(UP) — A funnel train started across Europe bearing 47 rough collisions carrying the remains of the men who were killed when the British dirigible I. R. 101 crashed into them and exploded near here Sunday.
French troops lined the funeral route and airplanes flew overhead.
Citizens in towns and villages paid
mute honour to the debt as the funeral
remains of those killed by the bombing.
Thomson, British minister of air,
and many of Britain's most noted airliner
The bombing of the salute of 100 guns was the audible signal of sorrow. There were no church ceremonies. There was no singing of nationalization. It is possible all will be buried in England in a common grave. Experts of the British air ministry appear no nearer a definite conclusion reached by R 101 that they had been at the start.
Premier Andre Tarileau and French air minister Laurent Eyne led the formal process from the town hall, to the airport from Aloue to the railroad station.

Crowell New President of Endowment Board
K. U. Association Hopes to Attain Success Reached by
Michigan
The acceptance of the presidency of the University of Kansas Endowment Association by Mr. Frank G. Crowell, of Kansas City, has been announced by Prof. Oln Templin, secretary; Mr. John M. Prescott, president; the Hall-Baker Grain Company of Kansas City, accepted the position when Chancellor Lindley resigned last week.

Mr. Templin went on to give some of the plans of the association. The Uni-
iversity of Michigan offers students given in private gifts. The Kansas Association will use Michigan as an example to copy. The bequests given are for research, scholarships, and for research work.

The temporary abode of this stowaway was not very large and was so far from the deck of the ship that men couldn't be distinguished from women, but even in a place where it has not been used since war times because there is another one lower and more easily accessible that is entirely adequate. Mr. Stowaway remained in Ireland for three nights and three nights, living comfortably, sleeping long, and taking things easy.
Kathryn L. Nelson and Karl Bratton Win Vocal Contest
Five Try Out for Atwater Kent Prizes and Scholarships
Karl Bratton, tenor and winner of last year's contest, and Mrs. Katrinn Langmade Nelson, soprano, were the winners of the local tryouts for the annual scholarships and prizes, held in the Administration auditorium last night.
With him, Hoppe carried three pints of water, three boxes of soda crackers, two bottles of water and several magazines, a dairy and a kodak. He figured that the food would be enough so that the boat wouldn't be too full, but was forced down because of hunger.
One of the new freshmen of the University of Kansas is in a position to claim the more or less questionable distinction of having stowed away on board the ship that was allowed to stay on the other side of the ocean only two days. This little adventure was taken by Fred Hope of Killenburg before coming to school this fall.
BRATTON WINS TWICE
"Three men and two women took part in the tournament to Mr. Brown's tournament, Lloyd Beerenstein "Arioso de benvenuto" by Diaz, and Murray A. Gatz sang the "Great Aladdin."
Mrs. Nelson selected as her number "Je Sais Titania," from the opera "Migon" (Thomas). Mr. Brutton sang the VERDia Aria from "Celedea Alest."
In the women's group Mary Lou Earl-
lewis sang the "Blue Dandelion Walt"
and the content were Mrs. A. J. Anderson,
Bryon Downs, Mary Pilcher,
Washington, Walt Disney.
STOWAWAY SAILS TO ENGLAND IN CROW'S NEST OF LEVIATHAN
Hoppe made the trip during the first part of August, after spending an eventful few weeks in and around the city in a backpack. Hoppe had already harried ready to sail for Southampton, England. Hoppe made a notion that he would go to see what things were like on the ship. "It was so, so, one dark, cloudy very-late" he boarded the gigantic liner, getting by the guards with the bus purchased for him. He climbed up into the top crow's nest.
The winners this year will represent Lawrence at the Kansas state contest at Topkea on Oct. 16 and 17. The competition will be broadcast over radio station WIBW.
Last year's winner in the women's section is Margaret Drennan, son of the late Helen Drennan, in the state contest at Topeka. Mr. Bratton placed first in this contest and earned a third place in Texas. In spite of the weather a fair crown witnessed the tryouts last night.
Night Shirt Parade Oct.25
Game Friday with Haskell Indians
Results in Change of Date
A night shirt parade will not be held on Oct. 10, after the Haskell game as was previously planned. Because the students would be impossible for the students to receive full benefit of the ceremony contest, the date has been shifted.
A committee is considering Oct. 28, the night of the Iowa State game, as a possible substitute date. In the past week, Iowa held the night of the first home game.
Distinction of Sailing in This Unusual Hiding Place Goe to University of Kansas Student
Last year the students were given free feed by the Chamber of Commerce in bringing this the Dickinson and Varsity that admitted free all jawaija clad students.
Members of Y.W.C.A. Announced Kathryn McFarland, president of the W.Y.C.A., announces the appointment of Dorothy Cober, former Eather Conger, president of the Y. W. C. A. at Ward-Belmont last year, has accepted the position of chairman of the meeting committee. Dorothy Hain new membership chairman, takes over the chairperson of theiation of Miss Clara Rosvall, who has accepted a position in a college office.
Under the watchful eyes of an im-
migration officer, Hoppe spent two
weeks in Southampton, then was made to
work his way back to America again.
He didn't get to see much on the other
side. The arrival of the adventurer was time well spent.
Then his curiosity got the best of him. He simply had to find out what was going on below, so one night, Hoppe came down. He was standing on the deck in the dark waiting for someone to come and discover him. He waited until a invited discovery since smoking was prohibited where he was standing.
The person who accosted the young man gave him a good look and then queried him that he was a stowaway. After this introduction, the officer conducted him to the mate's cabin where he was given his name, and helped them clothes, a place to sleep, and a promise of some good hard work in the future.
Hoppe holds the distinction of being the only person ever known to stow a ship in water, and officers of the ship always expect to find one or two stowaways each year.
Hoppe worked the rest of the way over under the conditions of an ordinary sailor. Upon arrival in England, he was instructed to move on the ship by the officers so that the young man wouldn't run away. The penalty for being found in a foreign country without a passport and a visas both in jail—and it just isn't worth it.
