Because of fire hazard, Northwestern co-eds are prohibited from smoking in their sorority houses. In the course of agitation for the ban's removal, Jean Van Evera, woman's editor of the Daily Northwestern, pored over the back files of the student publication. As a result of her search, Editress Van Evera was able to give the world a hitherto unknown bit of Willardiana...
There are 100 contests shot at Perry, where the nation's best riflemen and riflewomen display each year the sort of shooting that Commodore Oliver Hazard Perry, more than 100 years ago, showed the British at Put-in-Bay 13 mi. away. No shooting records were broken at Perry this year, largely because of the wretched weather during the first two weeks. But some paradoxical things happened in the early service cup matches. Firing under the aegis of the National Rifle Association but under the direct supervision of the War Department, the Infantry team won the Coast Guard...
...Credit River, a meandering, graceful hazard, winds through twelve of the 18 holes at Mississauga Country Club where the Canadian Open golf championship was played last week. Otherwise, it is not a difficult course, a little shorter- 6,545 yd.-than most links selected for big tournaments. The contestants were less worried by the course than by each other. It was probably the best field of crack golfers that has ever competed in the increasingly important Canadian Open -which has not been won by a Canadian since...
Neither route is totally virginal to aircraft; and neither is without hazard. In 1924 the famed U. S. Army round-world flyers fought fog, wind and snow along the Alaska-Aleutian route (that was in May). Five years later the Russian plane Land of the Soviets crossed eastward from Siberia to Alaska. Last month little Seiji ("Kite Crazy") Yoshihara, armed with Japanese goodwill to President Hoover, flew a small Junkers seaplane from Tokyo as far as Shana in the Kuriles. There his ship was so badly buffeted that he temporarily abandoned the flight, returned to Tokyo for a new plane...
Pilot Yoshihara proposed to make 20 stops en route to San Francisco, via Petropavlovsk, Alberta; the Aleutian Islands; Seward, Alaska; Vancouver. He carries no radio, will fly far off the regular track of ocean vessels. His worst hazard: Fogs, while he tries to locate his re-fuelling stations along the 6,268 mi. route to San Francisco. A forced landing in the bergstrewn Bering Sea would allow little hope of survival. Smiling little Seiji expected to complete his flight late this month...
