Starts Armistice Day The main object of this meeting was nerfect plans for the, annual Red No Target, Says Yost Declines Invitation to Fly for Anti-Aircraft Guns to Shoot At, Thanks Asked yesterday if he would fly over Aberdeen the night of No vember 19th and submit himself as a target for the Anti-Aircraft guns which are to be demonstrated by the Coast Artillery that night, Lloyd Yost, genial pilot of the Knollwood Airport said he would prefer it if the committee in charge of arrangements would find some one eise. Lloyd says he doesn't know just how good the Artillery boys have gotten with their anti aircraft gunfire, and that ho doesn’t propose to find out, per sonally. He suggests sending up a few balloons, “if you don’t mind.” ANTI-AIRCRAFT GUNS TO BOOM HERE ON NOV. 19 69th Regiment, Coast Artillery Will Camp Over Night in Aberdeen Democratic .^slide in Nation, State and County in Tuesday’s Elections Dwight Morrow, Senator-Elect from New Jersey, Arrives in Sandhills PARK COMMISSION CREATED BY BOARD IN SOUTHERN PINFS Five Men Appointed By Mayor To'Have Entire Charge of System DEMONSTRATION, CONCERT Aberdeen will be host to the 69th Regiment, Coast Artillery, ?n anti aircraft regiment, on Wednesday, Nov ember 19th, and big plans for the en tertainment of the officers and men are being made by a committee of cit izens headed by Mayor Henry McCoy Blue. The entertainment, ., however, will work both ways, the regimental adjutant promising a conceit by the regimental band and a reception to those residents of Aberdeen who de sire to look over the huge guns, trucks, trailers, etc., which will spend the night on the local football field. The anti-aircraft artillery regiment, moving by motor convoy, expects to arrive here the afternoon of the 19th, en route south^, and encamp over night. It numbers about 350 officers and men. In writing to Mayor Blue the adjutant states: “It is our plan to send an officer several hours in advance of the main party to make arrangements for a camp site. The requirements are chiefly, a firm ground for the park- mg of about 75 trucks, 17 trailers and 20 passenger cars; good drainage, and access to a potable water supply.- Electric lights are not essential. Demonstrate Guns “In connection with this move of the 69th Coast Artillery, which is from Aberdeen Proving Ground, Md., to Fort McClellan, Alabama, I might say that we aro equipped with some of the latest types of anti-aii-craft ar- m^pent. During our stay of one night in your vicinity we will be glad to ren der access to the camp to the gen eral public and to give such demon strations of 3-inch guns, machine guns and searchlights as, time and weather permit. Our band will also be glad to give a concert that even ing.” Mayor Blue has wired and written the adjutant of the desiie of Aber- Lisha A.

Mr. Morrow, who not only has been busy in his own be half in New Jersey but has made «everal radio speeches over a na tion-wide hook-up urging support for President Hoover in the re tention of Republican control of Congress, looked well despite his campaigning. Colonel Lindbergh’s “father-in-law occupied a tateroom in one of the two sections of the morning train from New York. Mrs. Morrow spent some time in Southern Pines two winters ago, occupying the Ramsey house on Weymouth Heights while her son was recuperating from an illness.
