OF LINDBERGH
8,000 FGHT TO SEE HERO
Famops Airman Is Welcomed By Four
Governors When He Coies To
Boston On Air Tour
(By Associated Press)
BOSTON, July 22.-Boston- gave an
u roarious welcome today to Col.
Charles A. Lindbergh, conqueror of
the Atlantic, and then without pause
gave an equally turmulent greeting
to the victors of the Pacific, Lieuts.
Maitland and Hegenbreger.
From the moment the wheels of
the "Spirit of St. Louis" touched the
cinders of the East Boston airport to
e moment three hours later when
tle doors of his hotel room closed be-
h d him, Lindbergh was the center
of the howling mob of devotees who
'made any sacrifice of personal safety
for one glimpse of their hero, and
then strove for another.
Careful To Avoid Crowds
ftarned by the experiences in New
Ycrk, the flier escaped unscatched.
His admirers were not so fortunate
and from thea crowd on Boston com-
moni, which was the densest, was car-
rid woman after woman and even
men and children. The field hospital
was swamped and the main hospital
aditting room was jammed with
thse who fainted or were crushed.
National guardsmen and police* of
state and city united to protect the
stronghold of the park bandstand
with its precious guests, but they
could do nothing beyond a 10 foot
radius. The slgrieks of women, pan-
ic-stricken by the crush, at times ac-
tually drowned out the speakers'
voices. Two soldiers and a marine-
man who had plunged into the mass
to rescue an uncfonscious person were
themselves carried out feet first.
Thousands Await Arrival
As true to his appointment as to
that historic one in France Lindbergh
arrived over this joy-mad city at 2
o'clock. Thousands watched the sil-
ver aeroplane circle below a still
hazy sky. On his trip over the har-
bor, Lindbergh flew close to the
steamer Leviathan, pride of Ameri-
can. ships.
Eight tousand persons watched the
1 stunts which preceded the gentle
coasting descent to tke airport run-
way. Gov. Alvin T. Fuller was there
to welcome Lindbergh, with Gov.
Ralph 0. Brewster of Maine, Gov.
Huntley Spalding of New Hampshire
and Gov. John Weeks of Vermont,
Mayor Malcolm Nichols of this city
and scores of army and navy officers.
EDUCATION CLUB

The Men's Education club will list-
ten to music for part of its next pro-
gram on July1 26, when Elmer Hess,
violinist, of Port Huron, will p'lay
preliminary to the scheduled lecture
by Professor Mather, of Harvard.
Mr.,Hess has been playing in the
orchestras of the Capitol and Michi-
gan theaters in Detroit since his re-
turn from Germany, where he studied
music for three years.-
During this coming year, Mr Hess
will have charge of band and or-
chestra in the Dowagiac, Mich., high
school. ,

If it were ever the critic's privilege
to forget the dour carping business of
fault finding and to uncork musty old
bottles of seldom used praise, last
night's performance of Fanny's First
Play by the Rockford Players gave iti
him. Such a play! Such a perform-
ance! The Players never failed to be
in perfect accord, perfect sympathy,
perfect understanding of the parts they
assumed, such gusto, in the playing of
them, was theirs. They showed us, as
best as it could be shown, G.Barnard
Shaw doing his mischievous, poking,
witty devil dance around the stodgy
homes and the weak as water personal
ities of the English middle class.
Story of English Youth
The play is concerned with two
English middle class families at the
moment when the on of one and the
daughter of the other have shown
their disinclination to take the word
of their parents as the word of God, by
getting drunk and bashing a couple
of policemen in the jaw. The parents
of the two children, respectable and
keady to tremble abjectly at the least
ROUMANIANMONRCH'
BODY LIES IN STNTE
Sorrowing Rounanian People WaIlt
In ihe Rain To Pay Honor
To Their Dead Ruler
BOY OF SIX IS KING
(By Associated Press)
BUCHAREST, July 22.-In a sim-
ple golden oak casket covered with
flowers from Queen Marie and his
daughter, the body' of King Ferdinand
rested today in the golden hall of
Cortoceni palace. Thousands of sor-
rowing Roumanians passed the bier
to do honor to their king.
The body was brought to the win-
ter palace Thursday from the royal
summer estate at Sinaia, where the
monarch ded. It will lie in state,
until Sunday, when burial will take
place in the royal mausoleum at Cur-
tea de Arges. On his tomb will be en-
graved the words: "I am a Rou-
'manian, first, last and all the time."
Rai Falls Steadily
Guns boomed as tie funeral train
came to a stop in the capital. Al-
though rain was falling, silent
crowds iwatched as the coffin, sur-
mounted by the sovereign's sword and
cap, was borne from the station to
a gun carriage and thence through
the streets of the city to the palace.
Men, women an children wept as
the cortege passed.
Under the will of King Ferdinand,
fotmer Crown Prince Carol is cut off
from inheriting any real estate, but
falls heir to about $400,000 in cash
and stocks. The rest of the king's es-
tate, totaling about $1,500,000 and in-
cluding palaces, city dwellings and
country houses, is apportioned equal-
ly among the other children. Queen
Marie receives the use of the palaces
and a part o fthe revenue from the
king's property holdings which are,
not extensive.
King's Will Modified
The will was executed two years
ago and modified after Carol renounc-
ed his throne rights.
King Michael, Carol's six-year-old
son, who was installed as monarch
with a regency soon after Ferdinand's
death, begins his reign with an in-
heritance from his grandfather of
about $250,000.
FACULTY CONCERT
TO BE WEDNESDAY
Maud Okkelberg, pianist, wll give
the next Summer Faculty Concert
Wednesday evening, July 27, at 8:00

two variations (Beethoven), waltz in

vited.
word of scandal, are stricken with
fear. The rest of the play is occupied
with the business of showing us that
life, contact with the real, the living
world of prostitutes and noblemen is
better than a foolish kowtowing to
a dismal morality that is built on an
absurd collection of ancient taboos
and the dictates of smugness. In
this piece Shaw has not hesitatet to
use any species of bally-hoo or hokum
to put his point across; the butler
turns out to be the younger son of a
duke, just as he does in any servant
girl romance; the son of one of the
families marries a daughter of the
streets of London just as it is done
in the most sentimental of novels, but
the play is good, it is exhilirating.
Shaw is the genius of moral exilira-
tion.
Acting Best of Season
To say what ought to be said about
the brilliant acting of each member
of the'company would exhaust any
limited vocabulary of superlatives,
and it is still harder to point your
finger at one person and say Lo! he
led them all. If I were hard pressed
I would say that on the heights were
five, these five are by name and char-
acter Elsie Herndon Kerns, Darling
Dora; Amy Loomis, Margaret Knox;
Robert Henderson, Duvallet; Frances
Hdrine, Mrs. Gilby; Helen Hughes,
MIrs. Knox. Together they reached a
height that the company has never
known before.

TALK OVER PLANS
GENEVA, July 22.-T'he American
delegation is seemingly more deter-
mined than ever not to commit itself
concerning the sizes and armaments
of future American secondary cruis-
ers in so far as can be learned will
maintan to th-e end its contention of
right to build the ships large enough
to carry batteries of eight-inch guns.
There are clear indications here that
the Washington government is strong-
ly supporting the American delega-
tion on this point.
American spokesmen declare that it
is probable that during the ten-year
life of the projected treaty the United
States will not build up to the existing
strength of the British navy and will
not want to build all of its secondary
cruisers big enough to mount eight-
;inch guns, but it contends that the
United States cannot possibly aban-
don its rights to do the latter if it
believes that naval needs justifies such
a type of construction.
PEKIN.-Because of the customary
state 'of "military emergency" keepers
of Chinese hotels have been ordered
not to admit guests after midnight.

GOVERNOR VISITS
SACCO, VANZETTI
AT STATE PRISON
(sy Associated Press)j
BOSTON, July 22.-The man who
alone holds the lives of two men in
his hand interviewed in the state
prison this morning Nicolo Sacco and
Barotolmeo Vanzetti, awaiting execu-
tion for murder. Governor Fuller
went to the prison and talked to the
two condemned men and also Eistino
Maderos, also sentenced to die in the'
electric chair, who some months ago
made a confession which would have
exonerated Sacco and Vanzetti.
The governor refused to make any
statement after he had spent 15 minu-
tes each with Sacco and Maderos and
an hour with Vanzetti. He left the
piison hurriedly, plainly striving to
avoid meeting newspapermen who
had followed him to Charleston. Re-
turned to the state house, he repeat-'
ed that he had nothing to make pub-
lic. The governor paid his surprise
visit to the prison in the forenoon,
first calling forth Maderos, to whom
he has granted several respites, the
latest until August 1. Maderos, con-
victed of th murder of the bank
cashier in Wrentham, asserted while
in jail that a gang which he was as-
socated committed the South Brain-
tree murders for which Sacco and
Vanzetti were convicted.
Then came the turn of Sacco, who
with Vanzetti was granted a respite
to August 10 to enable the governor to
study the evidence in their case. For
the first time since July 1, when he
was removed to the prison from Ded-
ham jail, Sacco saw the light of day
as he crossed the prison yard. He
was unshaven but showed no signs
of weakness from his hunger strike.
He was with the governor for 15
minutes.

CHANGES MADE IN
CAMPUS BUILDINGS
Many changes are being made in
Natural Science building to accom-
modate the new schodl of Forestry.
Several rooms are to be remodeled
for offices for Dean Danna. Class-
rooms are *undergoing changes, par-
titions are being removed and others
put in, and 'a reapportioning of the
present classrooms is taking place.
Two new laboratories will be ready
for use in September, and several
others are being altered to suit the
needs of the Forestry department.
The total cost of these changes will
be about $1,700.
As the architects leave the bane of
their existence and move to the new
Architectural building, the West En-
gineering building will pass into the
charge of the department of mechani-
cal drawing and Civil Engineering.
These chantges will also necessitate
the removal of the interesting engi-
neering library, which is the collec-
tion of Prof, Henry E. Riggs, from
the fourth floor to the ,st Erigi-
neering building.
INDIANA.-More than 60 of the 85
