DR. POTEAT PLEASED
PEOPLE OF DURHAM
' . .(Special to The Times.)
Durham, Oct. 31-The most signifi
cant religious event of the year was
the address last night at the Academy
of Music by President W. L. Poteat of
Wake Forest College. The large audU
toritim was "filled to overflowing, ' aU'
Tbe city churches having suspended
services to afford their congregations
ii n opportunity of, hearing the speaker.
President Poteat spoke under the
auspices of the local Y. M. C A. and
chose Tor his 'theme "Conservation of
Life." No speaker ever heard here
lias the following and admiration of
the president of the Baptist institu
tion and the outpouring last night was
a tributte to the highmlndedness and
tlrmness of faith that Imbues his pub
lic utterances on religious questions.
Jliu speech was a magnificent effort
delivered before a large and sympa
thetic audience. Ty& musical service
was notable and was under the charge

French flyer, although Grahame
White threatened to attempt the
flight again today despite the official
ruling that the competition was
ended.
The weather was chilly and some
what foggy - this .morning but the
wind was not high and those who
gathered for-the. last day of the
world's contest for flying supremacy
did so -with, the anticipation of see
ing it wound Up in a blaze of aerial
glory. . .. - ":
The statue of Liberty flight, prob
ably the most spectacular in the an
nals of flying, was still the main topic
of discussion. Its thrill was increas
ed by the fact that Moissant won by
only 42 seconds.
"That was a flight that should not
be considered lightly," said Moissant
today, telling about it. "I imd so
much difficulty in getting an aero
plane that I was determined to make
it under any circumstances.. My
Bleriot had been smashed but my
brother purchased me another fifty
horse-power machine for $10,000. I
got a good start and the wind was
not more than ten miles an hour. 1 1
flew in a direct line, realizing the
great'danger from treacnerotis wind
currents and air pockets over a city,
hut i wanted to win so badly that I
took the chance. T
"I could see thousands of people
below me but I was so high and my
motor made so much noise that I
couldn't hear their cheers. I flew at
a height of between 1.800 and 2,500
feet." ; . ! .;
"I'm going after Moissant's time
and I'll beat him sure," said Grahame-White
after the aviation com
mittee had finally settled upon the
American as winner of the Statue of
Liberty flights. "I congratulate Mr.
Moissant and appreciate that he has
done a great thing but I want to show
that I can beat his time." .'
The program today was as follows:
1:30 to 2:30 p. .'in. Aero Club of
America's special distance event, $3,
500 in prizes.
3:30 p. m. Special Altitude;
$500 to aviator who Hies above 4,000

Their vessel rapidly filling with wa

seas over the derelict, tne seventeen
men had all but abandoned., hope
when the River Platte was sighted on
t.ie horizon.
Even wilii the rescuing vessel close
at hand, it was a hazardous task to
transfer the imperilled men to tiio
deck of the Kiver Platte. 1 his was
finajly accomplished atler heroic en
deavors during walcn the rescuers
themselves were in peril oi being
swept into the ocean bv the the great
seas which continually broke over
their vessel. -
When seen this morning Captain
Anderson gave a graphic description
of the experiences ot hiniselt and lel

"We 'were bound from Gulfpnrt to
Buenos Ayres via St. Lucia, and
everything was going nicely until
Friday, October 14, waen we ran into
a hurricane. We were tossed about
considerably, but gave no concern
until one by one things began to dis
appear from the deck of the Mas

movable had been blown away, , The
winds continued to increase a,nd the
high rollers began to break over our
gallant bark until we began to feel
anxious for uer safety.
