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. YOST GIVES TALK AT PEPMEETING CONDLIFFE TALKS BEFORE CHINESE STUDENTS ON NATIONALIST HOLIDAY Says Chinese Must Retain Old l HOOVER'S HOARD PRlOBES EFFECT 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.

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.

(/?v ,- oia , wi.',e , H 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 George W. Wickersham, 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.

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.
