PARIS, May 10.-The people of
France spent a day of deep anxiety
over the fate of the aviators, Nunges-
ser and Coli, of whom there is no
news whatever tonight. The sad reali-
zation set in upon the French today
that they had made a carnival cele-
bration over what may be a tragedy,,
and what certainly has been a failure.
Mingled with the nation-wide worry
is deep bitterness and anger against
the press, which fanned the country's
flame of pride to rejoicing with the
false news that the two fliers had
succeeded in their great adventure.
Accusations, denials, explanations
and recriminations filled the columns
of today's newspapers, and no small
part of the bitterness is directed
against the United States, from which
the press insists, all erroneous news
emanates.j
NEW YORK, May 10.-Hope for the
rescue of the French aviators, Cap-3
tains Nungesser and Coli, appears to
hang by the tenuous thread that they
may have been picked up at sea by
Newfoundland fishermen or by some
small coasting vessel off Ireland.
Overdue a full day here on their
airplane flight from Paris, the fate of
the French war aces has become a
mystery of the sea. Wireless stations,
from New York to Labrador sputtered
messages today in all directions ask-
ing steam ships in their course to
hunt for the aviators. But none re-
ported sighting the "White Bird,"'
which hopped off so bravely from Le-
Boureet fieldf, with the "skull and.
cross-bones" and "death head" mark
on the white fusilage as if to defy the
elements.
ANNUAL BONFIRE I
SET FOR FRIDAY
"Cap Night", the traditional affair
which marks the passing of each class
to the class above, and the night on
which the freshmen cast their pots
into the huge bonfire to the tune of
"Where, Oh Where, are the verdant
freshmen?" will be celebrated Friday
night. The location of the event has
not yet been decided, but both Sleepy
Hollow and Ferry Field are under con-
sidleration by the committee
As is customary, the classes ill
form at designated places on the cam-j
pus anti will march to the scene. TheI
Varsity band will lead the iarch and
the classes will follow according to
seniority, the freshmen bringing ups
the rear guard. Upon arrival at the
scene of the ceremony the classes will
be seated in places arranged for them. I
Complete announcement ofthe list
of sneakers has not yet been made
by the committee but the speaker for
the students will be Thomas V. Koy-
kka, '27. President Clarence Cook
Little will speak for the faculty. Fol-
lowing this a. representative of the 1
athletic association will present "M"
blankets to varsity athletes. Then theI
band will play "Where, Oh Where",
and as each class comes to its verse
the members will rise and sing. As the
freshmen sing they will form in aj
line and cast their symbols of servi-
tude into the flames.
Following the event, the Butterfield
Theaters, through Gerald Hoag, will
present a free movie show in Hill au-
ditorium. The doors will not be open-
ed until the Cap Night ceremoniesj
have been completed. The picture will
be a special one that is not showing
at the local theatres.

CONTEST MAJOR OFFICES
Council, Union, S. C. A. And Oratorical
Association Presidents Will
Be Named
More than 3,800 student voters, from
every class and school on the campus,
will go to the polls today to choose
the officials who will lead the various
campus activities for the, next school
year. Ten juniors' will contest the
four major presidential offices, while
a large number of students will enter
the races for the various minor posi-
tions.
One of the most interesting contests
of the day will be the race for the
presidency of the Union where William
Jeffries, '28, will oppose Henry Grin-
nell, '28, for the office. Both men have
had considerable experience in the af-
fairs of the organization, and have
held positions of considerable respon-
sibility there. Jeffries was chairman
of the underclass committee this year
and also chairman of the freshman
group, while Grinnell has served in
the underclass department of the
Union and on the Union life member-
ship committee, in addition to serving
on the Student Council and on the
Board in Control of Athletics.

FIRST TAG SALES
NET LARGE TOTAL
Sale of tags yesterday by the Stu-
dent Christian association for their
summer Fresh Air ,Camp resulted in
the collection of $472, about fifty dol-
iars more than last year. Only $193
has been received from the various,
1 fraternity and sorority houses so far
This amount is less than half the sum
that was subscribed by them last year.
i Though few houses have -responded,
the average amounts given have been
greater than before. The association
requests that all houses that intend to
help in this way send in their con-
tributions as soon as possible so that
the committee in charge can definite-
ly settle how many boys can be ac-
commodated.
Thus far the money donated by the
students will send about sixty boys to
camp. Last year the students provided
for over, 100 boys. Alumni and lunch-
eon clubs took care of theremaining
250. H..H. Grafton, secretary of the1
association, said yesterday, that un-
less more contributions were forth-

IThe second crest, entering the Tex-f
as basin through flood waters stream-
ing from breaches in the main Missis-
sippi levee system at Cabin Teele and
Winter Quarters, still was in Madison
parish and wVas due at the mouth of
Old river between May 11 and May 15.1
Already these waters have covered
SseveralbLouisiana parishes. Those re-
leased by the cracks in the two levees
systems have covered or threatened
9,098,840 acres in northwestern Louis-
iana. Tullula, Louisiana, was under to
some four to six feet of water. At
St. Joseph and Ferriday, below Tull-
ula, water still was rising at the rate
of five inches in 24 hours, while at
Sicily Island in the middle of the
Texas basin, in northeastern Cata-
houla parish, a rise of a foot and three
inches had been shown in the last 24
! hours.

tween Courtland 9 Smith, '28, and
