The "Yankee Doodle," with Capt. C. B. D. Collyer, co-holder of the around-the-world travel record, at the controls and Tucker in the pas- senger's seat, set a new east-to- west non-stop record of 24 hours and 51 minutes when it came to earth. The previous record of 2 hours and 50 minutes was made in 1923 by Lieuts. John MacReady and Oakley Kelley. With Art Goebel, Pacific flyer, at the controls and Tucker aboard, the cigar-shaped craft flashed o an astonishing west-to-east record of 18 hours and 55 minutes a few weeks ago. The flight was from Los Angeles to New York, and the flyers later announced a new and shorter route. had been discovered, which, with a brisk wind at the ship's tail, ac- counted for the fast time. The course of both flights lay over McKeesport, Pa., Columbus,; Indianapolis, Terre Haute, Ind.,1 Wichita, Albuquerque and through; the San Bernardino mountain pass., The west-east flight was the only successful non-stop hop ever made, while Thursday's flight was the second non-stop flight westward across the continent. The latest successful flight for1 the fleet little monoplane was a decisive victory over adverse wind, fog, and rain above the Alleghenies and again over the Rocky moun- tains that threatened to send itl down short of gasoline before the goal was sighted. The "Yankee Doodle," after sue- cessfully battling the head-windsE of the Alleghenies in September, was forced down at Prescott, Ariz., when the western winds wasted away the ship's gasoline supply.x At that time the plane was fac- ing westward in the trans-contin- ental non-stop derby of the Na- tional Air Races, held here. "We left with 525 galonsof gas this time," Tucker said. "In flying over the Allegheny mountains near Bellefonte, .Pa., we ran into the worst fog I ever have seen, and I have flown a lot. We couldn't see the wing tips. We had to circle around and try another p a s s through, and we lost an hour. We could have made it in 24 hours in spite of the headwinds if it hadn't been for that.

The town constabulary was non- plussed and could find a no more plausible theory for the mystery than that the tub had been remov- ed to the house built with the De- troit street paving bricks. Obviously the town was going to the dogs, and the officials, both spiritual and temporal, began lay- ing their plans for a revival of mo- rality when it was discovered that the owner of the tub, a North Di- vision street resident, had claimed it. It appears that the former owner of the house, a Battle Creek citizen, had sold the bathing fix- ture without informing his tenant, Mrs. Smith. Much relief has been expressed by police over the solu- tion of the mystery.

The treatment is called "sensitization" and is under the personal direction of Dr. Jiminez, of the Health Ser- vice. Dr. Jiminez has had many inter- esting cases and in every instance he has treated them successfully. Students continually come into the Health Service complaining of ail- ments which they cannot accredit to any causes. If the causes canl nod be determined by other means, Dr. Jiminez takes the patients inj hand and gives them the treatment for sensitization. The treatment is simple and ef- fective, and consists in trying the effects of more than two hundred extracts on the patient. Scratches are made on his arms, one for each extract, and into each of the scratches a different extract isc placed. Fifteen minutes are given for the doses to take effect and, at the end of this period the scratches which have formed welts contain those extracts to which the patient is sensitive. The extracts are of all sorts of things, from oat- meal, feathers, and glue to golden rod, animal fur, and flour. They are all the possible things the as- sociation with which might cause illness. ' After the treatment has been completed, a compound is made of the antitoxins of all the extracts which 'have been found to disagree with the patient. The compound is injected into the patient and,' according to Dr. Jiminez, will sto' the disease with which the patient is suffering.] Preparatory School Graduates Form Club Students now attending the Uni- versity who graduated from Hotch- kiss, Hill, and Lawrenceville have organized a preparatory school club on the local campus. for Ann Arbor, arriving here in time for Monday classes. Michigan is the only university in the country that affords its stu- dents an opportunityfor balloon flights to study air currents. The proximity of Detroit with an es- tablished balloon club 'makes it possible to obtain the loan of first- class gas bags suitable for student flying. During the past two years more than 10 balloon ascensions and week-end tripshave been made by students to secure first hand in- formation on meteorological condi- tions. Last year one trip of 450 miles was accomplished under the auspices of the University. SOUTH BEND, Ind.-Perhaps Rockne has at last found the full- back he has been searching for.
