Trans-Ocean Flier Now Long Overdue Yet Unheard From
Comm. MacDonald, Englisl Airman, Trying Sea Hop to Europe Thought Lost
London, Oct. 18 - (UP) - Lieutenant Commander H. Mac.Donald must be out of gasoline, officials at him said at 6 p.m. (c m. p. E. S.T.)
They hoped he already had landed at some out of the way spot, but had little belief that he was still in the nir, they added.
Commander MacDonald, retired Royal Navy officer, left Harbor Gruez, N. F, at 11:40 a.m. (E. S. T., yesterday to travel the Atlantic in his tiny, one-man De Havilland Moth plane. As darkness fell today he had not been reported since leave from England, more than 25 hours ago.
Macdonald Small Chance Commander Macdonald has a narrow margin. The plane is fueled for 20 hours. He hopes to arrive within 18 hours.
St. John, N. F., Oct. 18—(UP) No word had been collected today from Lieutenant Commander B. C. Mane Donald, 23 hours after he left Harbor Grace on an attempted non-stop flight near the Atlantic
It is the most daring transe-Atlantic flight ever attempted and made by a man whose air experience is all most negligible as compared with the other illustrative flyers who have attempted covneous flights.
MacDonald started flying a year ago.
Like Calon Liedergerh, Macdonald did not install a radio in the machine and planned dead reckoning for the selection of a flight course.
The tiny plane weights but 80 pounds. Its wing spread is but 4 feet. Its motor can develop only about a quarter of the range only about 3,500 miles.
Weather Conditions Unfavorable
Mamdoum yesterday heard condi-
tioned smoke from the vicinity.
He prepared, personally, a therem-
nous bottle with coffee, a few sand-wishes, and walked over to his little rauth.
A mechanic twisted the pro-
tein.
The engine roared and with a wave of his hand Macdonald was away. Conditions were not believed the most ideal. Last night rain starred falling in St. John's. There was a heavy wind.
Flares were lighted at the londinium field as Daundonald had told the mech anise he left behind to be certain to get a ride home. He turned back. The night was extremely dark and the indications here were that Macdonald and his tiny plane had to grasp through both storms and rain. But they had continued towards England.
Milk Is Probable Cause of New Undulant Fever
Chicago, Oct. 29—Milk or milk products are probably the source of undulant fever, the new disease that is becoming more and more prevalent throughout the country. This of the American Public Health Association here today by James G. M. Alpine of the Stores Agricultural Experiment Station and Friend Lee of the Connecticut department of health.
Cattle of all kinds may be infected with the germ of the disease. In countries around the Mediterranean coast, the German country it has been traced to cows, where it appears as infectious abortion. Phen human being drink milk from such infected cows, they may get the same form of the disease and/or infant fever.

Lightning Hazard Probe
Balloons Succumb to Menaec as Well as Airplanes
[Service Survey]
Washington airport. The lightning hazard to government flyers has become so pronounced that the Daniel Gungorenbom Fund for the Promotion of Aeronautics has announced that a widespread investigation of the subject will be conducted in the near future in conjunction with the Army Air Corp, the Navy Air Service and the National branch of the Department of Commerce.
The danger of the proximity of a highly charged cloud to the airborne is two-fold. There is the lightning hazard and there are wind gusts, both verticle and horizontal, which could damage the aircraft or the skilled pilot to control his plane. For months government experts have been working on the problem, but thus no comedy has been found. Balloons seem to be particularly susceptible to the lightning menace and it was early suggested that balloons might be used instead of hydrogen, which is inflammable.
Airplanes likewise have their share of lightning tragedies, notably that in which Leist, Curtanus, Mexican goodwill advocates have been made that experts work to the end of inventing an especially devised meter whereby the plot can estimate the positive or negative charges of his craft and neutralize them. The instrument screen not only the well-known screen used over radio apparatus.
The "Hover for President" club at Northwestern University has booked Herbert Hoover Jr. to address the student body from the steps of the University Hall, when he makes the next trip west sometime in the near future.
Officers of the K. U. Hover-Curtis Club are to present at a meeting at the Douglas county court house Saturday, Oct. 20 at 2 p.m.
Scientists Note Change in Child Care Methods
Sleeping in the anytime has no effect on the sleep of infants, but too much daytime sleep interferes with the night rest of older children, it was found. Between the third and fourth year of life, the child should not be permitted to sleep longer than about one and a half hours in the daytime until this not only increases with night rest but also deprives the child of fresh air play activity that he needs.

Toronto, Oct. 18—The hunch-a-baby song method of setting a younger to sleep is passing. Rocking the baly of the family into a state of clammer is even more out of fashion than it used to be, at least, as shown by an investigation of children's sleep habit, made at the University of Toronto by Dr. W. E. Blatz and Nellie Chant.
A scientific report of the investigation in the Genetic Psychology children under ten years of age, only 22 were familiar with the sweet but unsatisfactory practice of going to sleep to the sound of a lullaby. Out of the 56 younders under five years old, there were just six that enjoyed sleeping luxury of being woked to sleep.

Nebraska Laws Have Cheer Sectio
Campus Special)
Lincoln, Neb., Oct. 18—The College of Law at the University of Nebraska has a law cheering section on its own at the football games. A black crusher hat is the emblem of membership in the law brotherhood and the senior members carry canes. The law cheering section comprises 150 seats and their occupants make a very austere and impressive body for their own cheerleaders, and it is anticipated that their first cheer will bring a volley of brick from the engineering building.

Derver, Colo., Oct. 18.—As the result of three Freshman-Sophomore flights, freshman at the University of Colorado will no longer hastily lay their bright green caps upon the approach of a sophomore. Although the new men lost the flag rush, they won both the potato race and the tag of war. The latter event culminated in the discomfited sophomore through the cool waters of the Pinta river.
The freshman will discard their caps and scarfs entirely on Thanksgiving day, and will return to more shaded shades in head gear.
