Sahara Plans
Lighthouse To
Guide Camels
Man's Second Victory In
Taming Of Desert Near
Famous Gas Pump
ALGIERS, July 5. - () - The first
lighthouse ever to be built in a des-
ert soon will send out a beam of
light to guide camel, motor and air
caravans across the Sahara's track-
less waste.
Erected a few feet away from
Bidon V, famous gas pump in the
heart of the desolate Tanezrouft re-
gion, the new lighthouse represents
man's second victory in the taming
of the Sahara.
Bidon V, an emergency filling sta-
tion for thirsty planes and cars en
route across the desert, was the first
conquest.
Equipped with a powerful gas-lit
beacon, pivoting on a tall slender
metal pylon a hundred feet high, the
lighthouse can be seen 30 miles away
on clear nights.
Heavy metal tubes of "bottled gas"
have to be transported hundreds of
miles across the desert to supply the
new station with power. Electrical
lighting was inadvisable because of
the heavy expense involved in wiring
the new station to the nearest power-
house, several hundred miles distant.
The new beacon is named after
General Vuillemin, flight commander
who safely led a squadron of French
planes across the Sahara in 1933.
'0(d Dobbin' Gets
His Way In Texas
DALLAS, Tex., July 5. - (P) - Old
Dobbin still has the right-of-way
in Texas.
.Horses enjoy superior rights over
automobiles under a pre-machine age
law. The law is still on the books,
a number of motorists have learned
to their surprise.
Not only is the owner of a horse pro-
tected on the roads, but should a thief
steal an animal worth but $5 he is
penalized with the same severity that
would follow theft of a $1,000 auto-
mobile.
Motorists must slow down on ap-
proaching a ridden or driven horse,
and must stop if the ride or driver
signals.
POLICE COURSES FAVORED
EAST LANSING, July 5 -- () -
The Michigan State College gave ap-
proval in principle Tuesday to the
curriculum for the proposed police
training school to be added to the
college courses in the fall.
The faculty took two or three weeks
to study the curriculum in detail.
The State Board of Agriculture at
its meeting July 12, will pass final
judgment on whether the course ac-
tually shall be installed at the fall
term this year. A majority of the
members have expressed themseves
in favor of it.
