...Louis-le-Grand in the heart of the Latin Quarter, where he had gone upon invitation to distribute prizes, ex-Premier Edouard Herriot rose to address the assembled boys. He got no further. Young Royalists of the organization Action Franchise whistled, howled, cat-called. In vain, the police attempted to restore order and in the end the ex-Premier was forced to leave. Outside the Lycée, the same demonstration was carried on. Several arrests were made, but to no avail and it was not until he entered the Chamber of Deputies that he was cheered: "Vive Herriot!

...England's airmen every year in big planes, little planes, from a 27-horse-power Moth with 7¾ hours start to an Armstrong-Siddeley-Siskin, starting from scratch. Last week, they took off. On the first day, the sun shone clear at dawn; but, before they had gone half way, a fog climbed up to them from the sea and many a plane, bewildered, sought a landing.
