Hqoolulu. Hawaii, July 10— C4 s )
Having irtffnpleted their uncertain :
Right to Hawaii by deliberately plung
ing into a tree on the leper inland of
Molokai Ernest L. Smith and Emory
B. BrolitC explained as tiiey rested
in Houolufu,' today why their radio was
silent for five hours after they sent
out SOS'calls and Why they continued
on to dry land without informing re
cue ships that they still were'in the
* ir -
When still 500 miles or more from
land, Bronte revealed, 'the failure of
their gaspjine pump led them to be
lieve that their fuel was running ex
tremely low and it caused the plane
to lose so much altitude that their
trailing antenna struck the
sea and was torn away.
Hie decrease in altitude had the (
effect of.- resuscitating the gasoline
pump 1 -they shot up into the air
again and “ headed "for land without ,
knowing .how long they would last,
and without knowing whether their
calls had’ ‘been heard and uncertain
of their hearings.
Navy fliers announced tiiey had sal
vaged thW motor and instruments from
the wrecked plane and had found the
gai-nUne fttak* absolutely dry.
When ,‘jjptial excitement and eon
- fusion had disappeared. Smith and
Bronte ftad distinguished themselves
as being, the first civilians to fly from
California to Hawaii. They had won
a battle with unfavorable weather,
perverse .Jyyk. and all the natural odits
that flyers face in crossing the sea
with land planes. They had out
smarted ~£ate by diving into the tree
when their last drop of gasoline had
been used, thus forestalling the possi
bility o£ 0 being pinned beneath tlieir
plane in an upset.*
I From the time they left the Golden
Gate at.U:OB a. m. Thursday until
they were near their destination they
saw neither land nor sea. Several
times Smith reported seeing beautiful
, stretcher of “land" tempting enough
for the ea ha us ted flyers to alight upon,
but the sights were only illusions —
mirages ca«t upon the clouds and fog
by the light of the moon.
From “tbe time they dived into the
fog bank off the Golden Gate until
they picked the tree as the softest
available "thing to land upon their
flight presented a series of difficult
ties. msi
The climax or their trouble came
about s:l3>a. m. Honolulu time (Hon
olulu time 1 is 2 1-2 hours behind Pa
cific time' and 6 1-2 hour*? behind
Eastern daylight saving time).. At
that moment they sent out their first
SOS 'having concluded they had
only enough gasoline to stay in the
air another hour. They presumably
were abfltit 700 miles from Honolulu
and 500 miles from the nearest land.
“We are going to land in the sea.
We have'a rubber life boat, but send
" help.” s£yeral ships reported them as
saying.
l ; Three steamers, the liner Wilhel
mina. the army transport Kenowis
and thq.Steamer President Pierce,
turned off their courses almost imme
diately and rushed to their aid, the
WUhelmina appearing to be the near
est to .them, apparently about 200
; miles away.
~ Less than 50 minutes later they
sent out u new call for help, estimat
ing tlieir gasoline supply insufficient
to last (them four hours. The plea
for assistance was continued.

GASTON CLUB IS
AGAIN DEFEATED
BY CONCORD, 5-1
Bob Morris Hurls Superb
Game Against Gastonia
Saturday.—Large Crowd
at Contest.
By RADIO KING
The Concord Weavers again blast
ed the. hopes of a Gastonia triumph
by licking the Combers, 5 to 1, Sat
urday afternoon at Webb field before
a large throng of cash customers who
sweltered as a July suit beat down un
relentingly through two hours of
tenee baseball. This victory marked
the third of the current season for
Manly Lewellyn’s team over the Gas
ton club.
Bob Morris held the visitors at bay
with his superb pitching by yielding
only two hits at separated intervals.
The only Gaston tally came in the
fourth when Sanders, who had sin
gled to the right garden and gotten
around to third on two fielders’
choices, inarched home on a wild pitch.
Morris, who is a portsider, whooped
’em down the alley with beautiful
control and shading with wicked
“baseball English.” *
The Weaver southpaw enjoyed
magnificent support at the hands of
his mates, too. Out in leftfield.
“Mutt” Miller, the pride of China
Grove, galloped about to nab some
hard-hit fliers. Thrice this graceful
lad dashed to catch almost sure-wal
lops. When Miller joined the Con
cord clan he seemed the unimpressive
type of player, but long since lias that
opinion been east aside by local fails.
Murray Greason, the Lexington pro
fessor, was ih the midst of the
sparkling fielding also. Murray ca
vorted about his territory at second
base in brilliant style, gi*abblhg eight
chances without a flaw, and spoiling
Gaston t*allies that wanted to bloom
into success, Greason raced back into
rightfield to catch one ball that ap
peared to be one of those Texas
leagueTs.
The Comber slabnrtm. who calls his
native home St. Louis. did not have
such a great time of it. Nagel, his
name, gave up eight hits, four of
which were doubles. However, the
bingles of the locals did not count to
the ultimate becattse of rather keen
Gaston fielding. The Weavers count
ed tallies in the third, fonrth. sixth
and seventh cantos. One marker to
each of these frames except in the
seventh when two we**e pushed across
the rubber.
Chick Miller, who is holding down
first while IJndy Lou is recuperating
from a strained back, got into old-time
action when he cracked out two hits,
one a double, and fielded his position
excellently. Chick* double in the
seventh scored Outen and Morris.
Hord and Greason collected two hits
each also.
Chink Outen, wno is working be
hind the plate while Irwin Watts is
out of the game because* of an injur
ed thmub. was walked three times in
the Saturday exhibition. The Comb
er slabman just wouldn’t give Chtwk
the chance to slap one out of the park.
Outen’* performance as a catcher was
worthy of applause. He did not have
suce a nice time the first two times
at this job, but he’s got wise to the
business now.
It may be another week before eith
er Lewellyn or Watts will be able to
get back in the game. Lindy Lou
and Watts suffered hurts in the tilt
with Mount Holly last Wednesday.
Watts was struck on the thumb with
n hard-pitched ball, almost knocking
the nail off. Lou developed an injury
when he swung hard and missed while
at bat.
The Weavers clash twice this week
with the Kannapolis Towelers, meet
ing for the first time since the twin
bill of July Fourth. The Towelerw
will come to Webb Field for a game
Tuesday afternoon, and agajn Thurs
day afternoon.

SECOND PRIZE IS
GIVEN MRS. ERWIN -
FOR FINE PAPER
I —————
Essay Entitled “A Model
Kitchen" Wins Second
Prize in Class for Contest
ants Over 20.
During the Better Homes movement
in the bounty recently an essay con
test was held iu connection with it,
and many valuable prizes were award
ed the winners. The\ following article
won (second prize in the class for con
testants over 20 years of age, and was
written by Mrs. Edward E. Erwin : •
A Model Kitchen.
“I am the kitchen in the Better
Hoirtb a| Jackson Park, Cabarrus
County. They have given ine the
name of Model, "because I am' to be
the pattern fbr all the farm kitchens,
not only in Cabarrus, but ill all the
Counties in this district. We are
expecting a great many club women
of other counties to visit this home
during the Demonstration Week.
“Long time ago, the things that
were not good enough for the other
moms in the house were all right for
the kitchen, but not so these times.
My furnishings were selected with as
much thought and tase as those of my
sisters, the dining room and living
room. In fact, I am proud to be the
kitchen, I am really the most impor
tant room in the house. In my hands
I hold the key to the health and well
being of the family.
’ “The problems of diet, nutrition,
food value, food combinations, the
prepaitntion and serving of well bal
anced meals, are all worked out within
uiy walls'.
“I want to speak of three things
that are essential in a well planned
kitchen. They are location, equip
ment, and arrangement.
“1. location : I occupy the North
east corner of the house, and have
windows in both outside walls. It
is real nice to have windows in two
outside walls as that gives cross ven
tilation. I have two doors; one opens
into the dining room, the other into
the back porch.
“2. Equipment: Electric lights, run
ning water, sink with drain board,
built-in cabinet and shelves, also stool,
oil stove, instantaneous water heater
to furnish hot water for the bathroom
atid the kitchen, and a tireless cooker
to save a lot -of time in cooking
meats, cereals, etc.
“Arrangement: I am spiall. have
about 108 square feet of floor si»ace,
so this is an important feature. Un
til recently little attention has been
given to the arrangement of the
kitchen. For the woman who does
her own housework, the location of
the sink, icebox and stove with refer
ence to natural and artificial light,
ami to each other, is most essential.
The sink is 36 inches high and is plac
ed under the two windows, with a
drain board on the left side. .The
table is to the right of the sink; the
flour and bins are built in under
the table. Shelves for cans of spices,
soda, salt and sugar, and the small
kitchen utensils are above the work
table. The oil stove is placed against
the wall on the left side of the dining
room door, and opposite, to the sink;
the water heater is in the corner to
the right of the diningroom door. The
ironing board is attached to the wall
between the heater and the back door.
The board can be taken down when
not in use. The refrigerator is on the
back porch. With cream window
shades and curtains trimmed in ging
ham, a congoleum rug on my floor.
I am up-to-date, neat and goodlook
ing. As I look into the shining faces
of my pots and pans, I can hardly
wait for my lady to come in to get
dinner.
“1 have tried to give you a de
scription of a bitchen equipped at the
small cost of and arranged with
the idea of saying steps, which is an
important consideration. I close by
sayiiig I am happy and contented as
the Model Kitchen iu a modest alul
beautiful Better Home.”
PROPERTY OWNERS
GIVE BOARD IDEA
ABOUT LAND VALUE
Number of Property Own
ers of County Appear Be
fore Officials as Result of
Property. Valuations.
Various property owners of the
county appeared before the board of
equalization and review during the
day to enter protest against the valua
tion placed against their property this
year.
The tax listed and assessors com
pleted their work some time ago and
Under the law all property owners
have the right to appear before the
board and make protest if they think
the valuation is not just.
During the day persons with prop
erty in the rural section* of the coun
ty were heard and tomorrow city prop
erty owners will be heard.
Before 8 o’clock this morning a
number of farmers were at the court
house and the number increased dur
ing the day. So far a* can be learned
those appearing before the board
wanted a reduction in their valuation,
although the board was ready to hear
any one who might think the valua
tion of their property was not high
enough.
It is not known what percentage of
the complaints resulted in dowering of
valuations, although it was reported
at the court that the board did make
some change* as a result of the con
ferences with the landowners.
Many of the larger tax payers of
the county, it is said, have already
been in conference with the tax as
sessors and it is reported that iu a
majority of cases they will enter no
protest since the valuation of their
property in many -instances has al
ready been agreed it pod. j
While official i figures ‘are still lack
ing it i* said that the amount of tax
able property in the couflty has been
increased at least 20 per cent, as a
resuit of the new valuation.

FINDS PATIENT AT # I
STATE’S HOSPITAL
IS MUCH IMPROVED
J. H. Brown Discussed Case
of Cabarrus Man at Mor
ganton. —Another Mental
Case For the County.
J. H. Broww, retiring county wel
fare officer who will remuin on the I
Job utitil D. R. MeEacherm recently f
appointed, is ready to relieve him, {
reports the arrest of'auother man who
became suddenly insane Saturday. Mr. J
Brown hope* to get the man in the j
State Hospital thm week,
j This is the eighth ease of this kind
reported to county officials in recent
weeks, it was pointed out, ad as all
pf the other patients were placed sat
isfactorily in state hospitals, Mr.
Brown hopes to get this patient quar
tered during the week.
In discussing this case and another
prospective trip to Mprganton, Mr.
Brown added a word of praise for the
treatment accorded local patients at
the hospital.
“■Several days ago,” he said, “I
carried a man to Morgan ton hospital
and he wms so weak we had to carry
him to and from the car. I feared he
would not live a week. .While his
mind was badly affected, it seemed
to me that his physical condition was
the thing that needed immediate at- '
tention.
Thursday 1 had occasion to
return to Morganton, just a week 1 '
after this man was carried there, and
1 asked to be allowed to see him. I
expected to be taken to his room, but
much to my surprise and delight, he
came walking into the visitors’ room.
“He was like another man. That
his physical condition was improved
he proved by walking from his rooty
to the ik»om where I was waiting. He
knew me and several other people
with rae; and he discussed various
questions most intelligently. ;
“He ( told me that he was getting
the best of care, that his room was
clean and his food excellent.” f
In discussing the case that develop
ed Saturday, Mr. Brown said it was
an unusually sad one.
“We had to go to the man's house
Sunday and get him, for his own.
)roteetion ad the protection of his
family;’’ Mr. Brown said. “The man
whs' quiet, and made no effort to give
is trouble. When we -told him we
bought it best for him to be given
reatment, he seemed to understand,
“Before he left, however, he called
iis wife and two children into the
oom. they all knelt around a bed,
with him between his wife and chil-
Iren, he offered a beautiful prayer.
For about 15 minutes he prayed and I
the scene was one I will not soon
forget.” ,

Early Sunday Morning, jl
John Davis Hunsucker, 25, of Row- I
an county, was fatally injured, and ■
two unknown persons escaped serious I
harm, about 1 o'clock last Sunday I
morning when a Chevrolet automobile If
in which they were occupants rolled I
down an embankment near Norcott ■

ifr. Hunsucker suffered a fractured *
skull and other injuries which pro- '
dueed death about 5 :30 o’clock at the *
Concord hospital where he was
brought for treatment. The body
was carried to Salisbury.
Details of the accident were meagre.
It seems that Hunsucker, who was
said to have been at the wheel, had
driven the machine from the highway
Up an incline into a yard, and steered
too close to the edge of the etnbauk-*
ment when he was, about to park the
auto, j The result was that the ma
chine rolled dbwn the embankment
into the road. \ }
1 Mr. Hunsucker was a tenant on the
Moyle farm, near Salisbury, and was
visiting relatives in Cabarrus county
when the mishap occurred. Efforts
were fruitless this mottling to ascer
