RICKENBACKER THRILLS
AUDOIENCE WITH STORIES
(Continued from page one)
Stories of other fights, duels, and,
"dog fights" as a battle of many planes
is called, of his aerial view of the bat-
tle of Belleau woods where he saw
"America's doughboys lick the Prus-
sian guard, Germany's best," of Lieu-
tenant Luke who became the "terror
of the skies" and broke all records
in "getting balloons," but was killed
after sinking three gas bags at. once,
and of one Yankee pilot who drove his
plane head on into a Hun to get him,
sacrificing his life to win. Ricken-
backer believes there are not enough
decorations made for such men.
Relates Casgrain's Misfortune
One of the stories which proved
most interesting to the local audience
was the fight which sent W. V. Cas-
grain, '18, to a Hun prison camp.
Rickenbacker had been watching a
"dog fight" when one pilot, Casgrain,
dove out of a Hun's way and in pulling
the machine up broke a wing and
landed in No Man's Land. Casgrain
extricated himself from the wreck and
stood up and looked around to get
his bearings with an expression which
nearby artillerynien translated as,
"Here I am, where am I?"
Casgrain was taken to an intelli-
gence officer who he told of a "lib-
erty elephant" which flew with 50
men. Later he was made to admit
nothing of the sort existed and when
caught hoarding food and planning an
escape was sent to a prison camp in
the north, where he was the only
American.
He told of the three ways of dy-
ing, being shot, crashing and being
burned in the air. The ace said he had
picked the latter as the worst and
always dreaded it.
After telling of the armistice cele-
bration, how the grim fighters played
ring around the rosy, fired their guns
and cut other capers, pictures were
shown.
Audience Impressed
Although the auditorium was not
crowded as was expected, there was
a large number present. Those who
heard America's Ace, who has written
the glory of the air service across the
sky, were satisfied. Rickenbacker's
modest and interesting tale of his ad-
ventures in the air was well received,
and one would almost feel that he had
a private little chat with him.
The members of the air service who
are attending the University gave
Captain Rickenbacker an informal
dinner at the Delta Kappa Epsilon
house before the lecture.
SECTIONAL CLUBS
BOOST MICHIGAN
sectional club organization is com-
ing to be an important feature of the
University Y. M. C. A. work. The pur-
pose of these clubs is to promote a
friendly spirit between students from
the same section of the country and
cause them to work together in cam-
pus affairs. These reasons are quite
important, but the most important is
to boom the University in the home
town and bring students from the
high schools to Michigan.
All of the large cities of Michigan
already have, or will have, their clubs
to promote this interest in the Uni-
versity. The Pontiac club has taken
the first active step by inviting the
members of the senior class of the
high school to Ann Arbor for a visit,
to see at first hand the real Michigan.
Kenneth Willson, '19E, is in charge
of the work and has plans for the es-
tablishment of four new clubs in the
immediate future.
SOCIOLOGY STUDENTS URGED
TO ATTEND LECTURE TONIGHT
Students of sociology and others
interested in social service work are
urged by Prof. Arthur Evans Wood,
of the sociology department, to hear
Miss Manche J. Hart at 8 o'clock Sun-
day evening in Lane hall. Miss Hart
comes here under the auspices of the
Michigan Menorah society, and the
subject of her talk is "Social Service
Work in a Big City."
"Miss Hart is thought of very high-
ly. in charity circles in Detroit," said
Professor Wood, who is well acquaint-
ed with Miss Hart's line of work.
"She has been superintendent of the
United Jewish Charities for many
years, and is in close touch with prac-
tical problems in social service work."
LORD JELLICOE AND SIR DAVID
BEATTY RECEIVE PROMOTIONS
London, May 3 (Correspondence of
the Associated Press).--The British
government disregarded all precedents
and created two unique situations
when it elevated Lord Jellicoe and Si
David Beatty to be admirals of the
fleet at the same time. Never had a
man of Beatty's age-48 years-been
so honored and never had two British
admirals of the fleet flown the flag
at the same time. In fact in the past
100 years only three admirals of the
fleet had flown their flags at all.
