CROYDON, England, Oct. 10-
More than 150 niiles off their
course, Captain J. Errol Boyd and
Lieut. Harry P. Connor safely
brought down the veteran trans-
Atlantic monoplane Columbia soon
after 5 p. m. (noon E. S. T. today)
in the Scilly Isles, ending- a flight
of a little more than ?A hours from
Newfoundland.
Hop Off Today
The airmen telegraphed to Lon-
don from Tresco, one of the island
group off Land's End, tip of south-
western England, that they hoped
to get away early tomorrow for
Croydon Airdrome, their destina-
tion.
Their message, sent to Charles A.
Levine, who flew the Atlantic with
Clarence Chamberlain in the Col-
'iminijn 1927? ,stated thaI,. the
monoplane was undamaged. They
landed on a beach in the little is-
land. Both were well.
Word of the Columbia's landing
reached officials at the airdrome
here from the coast guard station
on St. Mary's Island, close toTres-
co. This message said that motor
truble had forced the monoplane
down, less than 300 miles short of
its goal.
Telegraph Lines Opened
Another report, received at Pen-
zance, Cornwall, however, said that
a damaged gasoline tank had cut
short the flight.
The solitary telegraph lines to
London from Tresco from London
shut down at the regular hour this
evening, but was reopened later to
let a few messages through from
the aviators.
Among those at the field were
Charles A. Levine, the boxer, Dave
Shade, who came over from Paris
by airplane to greet the aviators,
and members of the American and
Canadian colonies in London.
Apparently their course took
them well to the south of the Free
State.
Information that the sturdy mon-
oplane's second crossing was at an
end was received with relief by a
small crowd that had gathered at
Croydon airdrome to welcome the
aviators after their dangerous
journey.

Heritage of Culture.
"Japan has taken what she found
useful from the nations of the
western world, but has retained
her old traditions founded on an
anciend heritage of culture, and
this policy is the great lesson that
China must learn from Japan her
eastern neighbor," stated Prof. J.
D. Condliffe, of the economics de-
partment, in an address last night
in Lane hall before a meeting of
the Chinese students' club, held to
celebrate the national "double ten"
holiday.
Professor Condliffe extolled the
teachings of Dr. Sun-Yat-Sen, who
when merely an unknown Chinese
doctor in London, returned to his
native country and almost single
handed aroused the whole popula-
tion in revolt against the oppres-
sive Manchu dynasty. Prior to the
address the entire audience arose
and bowed three times before the
photograph of Sun-Yat-Sen which
was placed on the platform.
After the address a play was
presented entitled, "The New
Dawn," written by Miss Nettie Soo
Hoo, Grad.

Today's football game will
bring to Ann Arbor one of Mich-
igan's former track stars, who,
since his graduation in 1904 has
not seen a Wolverine team in ac-
tion. He is Nelson (Ned) A. Kel-
log, at present director of ath-
letics at Purdue.
When a member of the track
team, Kellog made a name for
himself one night against the
supposedly unbeatable Schutt, a
miler from Cornell. On the Wa-
terman gymnasium track, which
has 14 laps to a mile, although
he was a two-miler, he ran the
mile in 4 minutes and 30 seconds,
beating Schutt and setting a rec-
ord for both indoor and outdoor
tracks. He was also a member of
the first four mile relay that
ever represented the Maize and
Blue at the Penn Relays, the
members of which came back
with gold watches, prizes given
for first place.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 10. - Pre-
pared to go to the bottom of the
prohibition question, President Hoo-
ver's law enforcement commission
today neared a formula for solving
this troublesome problem.
To Decide Enforceability.
The formula, still subjecttto fur-
ther discussion, provides that 10
men and one woman of the com-
mission first determine whether the
dry law is being enforced, and if it
is not, whether it can be perfected
to make it enforceable.
Should the commission reach the
conclusion that prohibition cannot
be enforced, the next step would be
a decision whether it shall recom-
mend for modification or repeal.
There is no unanimity among the
11 minds on all details of such a
program, particularly over the lat-
ter part of it, but as the commis-
sioners went home over the week-
end to study further these volumi-
now eports on prohibition there

Chairman of the law enforcement
committee, whose forces will as-
semble on Wednesday and are ex-
pected to report that they find the
prohibition law unenforceable.

Noble Kizer's boilermakers will invade the Stadium this afternoon at
2 oclock. Purdue, after the first undefeated season in the gridiron history
of the school, will enter the game today with the determination to do or
die, for in the outcome rest all their aspirations to football power.
Although weakened by the graduation of such stars as Harnleson,
Welch, and Sleight, Coach Kizer has
moulded together a team this year
which experts claim will sweep
through the Big Ten if they are
able to conquer the stubborn Wol-
verines. With such importance at-
