WORRIES OVER' TRAGIDYSURROUNDINOI INUNOESSERAND COLI1 i NATIONWIDE ANGEII CENTERS AAI\ST ERRONEOUS PRESS REP()RTS ARE FULL DAY OVERDUE Amerlean Officials Order Avaiable ! Coast Guard Cutters Out In Search Of Flyers (By Associated Press) 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.

I 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.
