"it:?:: fir Back from aa eventful trip in the jungles of South America, Miss Ly dia Walsh, professor of botany at Elmlra college, Elmira, N. YM has brought home a new interpretation of the old phase "Southern hospitality." Miss Walsh left New York last June for Buenos Aires, where she joined her brother, Robert, and his friend, Thomas EI lingsen, employees of an American company in-the Argentine, and started on a 2,000-mile Journey up the Paraguay river into the Matta Grasso district. On reaching Luque, Paraguay, the three Americans were flung into a vermin-infested Jail, charged with espionage, all because Miss Walsh had taken a picture of some old Jesuit ruins. They later learned that they were assumed to be spies for United Suites capitalists, interested in oil grants in the disputed Chaco territory. Released through tlie efforts of an Argentinian av iator who had fought in the World War, Miss Walsh and her com panions continued their journey, but were: once more jailed at Gorumba, in a bug-ridden structure that passed for a prison. From this predicament they were rescued through the good offices of the British Vice Consul. Saying a relieved farewell to Paraguay, the Americans crossed the border cast into durance by Bolivian gendarmes at Puerto Snares. There being no consular offices in this fair city, Miss Walsh bribed her M ay ont of the black hole with future. Miss .Walsh plans to confine tier botanical, research to our northern woods, where the flora Kay aot be so exotic, but the Jails are far more comfortable.

(AP) The steamship Oregon, a sister ship of the ill-fated Nevada. messaged tonight to the naval radio station here that it was pro ceeding to Amtignak Island, where the Nevada lies wrecked. The Ore gon expects to arrive tomorrow morning, the message said. The naval radio here also talk ed with the President Madison again today, and were told that the officers of the ship had con vinced themselves that there was no life aboard the Nevada, before they left for Victoria, after pick ing up the three survivors. Although a small boat was un able to get dose enough for any men to board the Nevada, the mes sage said, heavy seas were break ing over the midship section, the only part visible to which anyone might have clnng. SEATTLE, Sept. 30. (AP) Spurred on by the hope that there may be other survivors of the Ill- fated freighter Nevada, either In the wreckage of the vessel or on the rocky shores of Amatlgnak Is land in the middle Aleutians, the U. S. Coast Guard Cutter Haida tonight was racing to the scene. The liner President Msdison. meanwhile was steaming toward Seattle with three of the'erew of the Nevada, heroically rescued yesterday by a lifeboat crew from the Madison. Two dead Chinese were seen by tbe officers of the Madison on the shore near the wrecked freighter, but they saw no sign of the other 30 odd men who were aboard the ship when she broke up.

An nouncement was given at a meet ing with a large group ot exhibits ors, and quelled any fears en part of the ribbon winners that tro fair would not be able te ry t for them. Attendance, about 25 per comi off last year, had alarmed toao of the exhibitors to poiat thai they thought the fair maaare ment might have to exercise Ira declaration that it would rerfac-o premluma it financial condltiere necessitated. Operating Expense Ha mlled Easily The state fair will pay operat ing expenses easily enough, aod but for the general deprss!e there would be no financial wea ries at-all, Gehlhar Indicated lat night. Auditor Krueger annoane ed yesterday's attendance at 11, 573 and the stadium last night at 1,105. The night crowd coatf ues unusually good, Gehlhar sajs. Criticism directed at the stato fair, particularly by the Livestock association, campers and life members, brought response frewi Director Gehlhar yesterday rvorr lug. He charged that most of tie accusations detrimental to t management had originated witfc "disgruntled politicians who hava I been weaned away from the puetfe I teat". He spent most ot the morn ing closeted with the agricultural advisory board, which serves als as a fair advisory board, ad which is appointed by Goverwer Meier. Most people seem to lose slgt of the fact that a board of eesa petent advisors have a hand fa shaping the fair and assisting fa Its success, Gehlhar indicated.. Coafereaoe Held oa I x Management issave The director and board mem bers met ltte in the afteraooa with superintendents of all do, pertinents, and a general discus sion ot both sides ot the manage ment question, was Indulged. Board members were introduced to the superintendents, and took part in the discussions. Better feelings were evident whea ts-e session was ended, it is said. Later last night Gehlhar and the board members met with tho exhibitors, and announcement of full pay on the premiums awarded was greeted enthusiastically there. f Gehlhar declared that criticism directed at the' 1932 fair probably was due partly to the fact that It had been necessary to carts 11 expenses to the bone and e Mm la ate from the payroll a number of persons who previously had prof ited at each successive fair.
