field all day.
Contest Arrangements
At each nlrport will be a long
thltn line across the runway,
which Is the finish line for pllols
lit Hint stop. A contest attendant
will he on hand lo check In each
ship and every nllot and ship will
be accurately timed 111 order to
make records complete.
In flying the course, ench Pllol
takes off from the start Willi n
card showing a conspicuous spot
on Hie route to the next city. Tills
card Is given the pilot lust as he
lakes off. He must navigate to that'
landmark on a correct compass
course nl his cruising speed. When
he roaches this landmark, lie will
see n largo number or loller writ
Ion on Hie ground. He refers to
his curd again and notes the com
pass course opposite Hie number
or letter. He then navigates on
that course to his stop, where he
flashes across the finish line Tor
Hie contest Judges lo tlinc, circles
and lauds.
The Idiot who turns In Hie best
record lor Ihe entire course, wllll
the nearest perrecl navigation and
Ihe nearest arrival limes on Hie
basis of Ihe cruising speed of his

Thrills for 'Onlookers
These navigation contests have
lieen used many limes in smaller
air tours and In oilier aviation
events. Thev prove as i-xclllug for
the crowds as tor (he participating
pilots. A pilot may pile up points
one dav with good navigation only
. to lose them ihe next. So the w in
ner Is In doubt until the last mile
of the meet.
Ill the 1!i:t7 conlesl. put on In
conjunction with ihe lour of lhat
year, Dr. Sharp, flying his sleek
Vacn cabin plane, was ninny
points ahead of Ihe field until Ihe
last day or the meet. A slight mis
calculation of direction on lhat last
ilav washed out bis lead and re
sulted In his being defeated by
(ieorge ArotlHtrad ir l.os Anuelcs.
Dr. Sharp lias already entered
the contest again and will no doubt
be a dellnltc contender tor what

"Okay. How many you guess'll

"No tellin'. Iletly Mary didn't1
have the whole dope on it." j
They ceased talking and began
moving now with the skill of long
practice, slowly, silently, as an In
(lii'n might go. Beyond the hori
zon line dead ahead was San .
Felipe Canyon.
It was a small gorge, but Its 800
reel, or so of depth loomed for
bidding by night. Farts of its walls
were sheer; n man could step over
a rim and plunge to sure death he
low. All of it was a rocky rugged
terrain, touched here and there by
thorny cacti which had to be
sensed by the crawling men.
"Don't stick up your head,"
Hope warned his friend, unneces
sarily, whispering right into his
ear. "Hump your blanket up
around your neck. It'll keep your
silhouette from looking like a man,
in case anybody should just hap
pen to be gazing at the skyline."
".tight," Sheridan whispered, '

In 1117, and indeed that's about
what it was anyway. They bad
excellent reason to suspect that
five or maybe 25 desperate aliens
might be on the other aide of this
ridge, and they knew any such
aliens would train hawk-like eyes
for the of I It-era from Kl Paso.
"Wonit thing is." Hope whla
ppred ouce, "we didn't get the tip
in time. We may be already too
late."
His concern over this heightened
as more time passed. The two
men edged over the rim, hearing
nothing but a distant night bird,
and worked their way down near
the narrow floor of the canyon.
They found a roc!: about the size
of an automobile which could
serve double purpose it shielded
them from the chill night bteeze
which raced up the canyon, and it
would be a breastwork from pos
sible bullets too. They huddled
beside it for a long halt hour, lis
tening intently.
"If anybody's In thin canyon
now," Sherry whispered at last,
"They warn sure aren't moving.
The walls are so close we'd surely
have heard some sort of little
noise or echo."
"Right," agreed Hope. "But they
may come yet. If we aren't too
lute getting here."
"I'm afraid we are. What time
is It, say "
"It's past 2," Tiope answered,
studying the stars. He had a watch
with luminous dial and a pocket
flashlight too, but dared not use
either now, of course.
From their position they could
be fairly comfortable and could
surely discover any pedestrians or
tiders who might try to come up
the canyon. They unrolled blank
eta and wrapped, up to combat the
cold. Then they took turns on
guard.
The long night vigil was never
Interrupted. Not a Blngle unto
ward sound disturbed the officers.
At 7 o'clock they ate a bit of cold
lood and at 8 a. in. they crawled
down their khaki uniforms made
a natural camouflage from spies
with field glasses, so long as they
moved cautiously and Inspected
the canyon floor. Twice they
searched carefully covering a
wide area.
"Maybe we weren't too late, but
too early," Sherry said when they
had met again. "Not a sign of a
track, either horse's or man's." I
"Me either," Hope nodded.
"What'l! we do, stick It out?"
"Guess so."
They were putting themselves In
for a long, tedious task and they
knew it; but patience is truly
golden If you are a border guard
They settled down behind their
rock and brush to wait until night
should fall again 12 long hours,
and then more vigil at night.
They passed the time talking, as
only friends can. A lot of it was
business, and a very great deal of
it was about Betty Mary Jordan
and her unexpected appearance in
their lives, but they did not allow
the talk about her to get personal.
Not a thing was said, all day.
about the fact that Sheridan Starr
already bad asked her for a first
date. Both men sensed that such
talk might lead them to dangerous
ground.
Never for a moment did they
Imagine that she hadn't given
them an accurate tip. They knew

Barro might have planned to send
aliens over last night and then de-
J cide to postpone the crossing. They
migui nave to wait several mgbts,
sending one man back to care for
the horses and to bring additional
provisions for themselves. Barro,
and all Latins, are like that; un
hurried, changeable. Sheridan anO
Hope had kept patient vigil berore,
were not unhappy now, especially
with thoughts of Betty Mary to
entertain them.
They lay low and slept son-3,
one at a time, during the day, but
at sundown both were alert and
on guard again. The sH-o:id night
was miKh like the firru; lighted
only by stars, Ulent and clear and
rather cold. From 7 to 9 o'clock
the two met scarcely wr.spered.
At 10. Hn;.t whisper I, "Needn't

Dr. William Starr Myers, pro

Mr. Roosevelt held "it is for the
president to make the policies, and
for congress to find the methods
to carry out bis will."
"It has shown Itself In direct
steps toward an authorlturlan
state," he added. "The T. V. A.
plan is pure socialism. Our pres

is communistic in part. The new

fascist."
