SAVES HER LIFE New York, Nov. 3 () Lightning action saved Ruth Nichols, famous aviatrix, from probable death early today when Iter plane smashed up on the take-off of a transcontlnent alcampaign flight for President Hoover. As the plane, freighted with a large supply of gasoline, shot down a 3,000 foot runway at Floyd Ben nett field, it skidded off at 60 miles an hour, went into a ground loop and burled its left wing in the ground. Quick as a flash, before the craft struck, Miss Nichols cut her switch, to prevent her gasoline from catch ing fire and burning the plane and herself. Ambulances clanged to the scene as Miss Nichols stepped out of the badly damaged ship. "No," she said, smiling and try ing to conceal her exasperation over the mishap. "Nothing can hurt such an old hand at this game as I am." Carrying bales of campaign lit erature to drop en route, Miss Nichols was to have sped non-stop to the west coast in an attempt to break the record of Amelia Earhart.

Davis of Turner to decido whether the fortune shall go to create r home for the needy at Turner or go to J. M. Sharp, of California, sole surviving rela tive, occupied the attention of Circuit Judge Levelling In circuit court today. The center of the early conten tion in trial of the case was the offer of the Turner Christian church to act as trustee it the court saw fit to appoint It. The contest hinges around the mat ter of a trustee as under the terms . of the will virtually all of the es tate was to be placed In trust to erect and maintain a home for the needy In Turner on a site deslg nated by Mrs. Davis. But in draw ing the will she failed to name a trustee and it Is on this ground the validity of the will is attacked that she had failed to complete the trust by failing to nominate the trustee. Rev. A. J. Gilstrap of the Tur- . ner Christian church testified as to the friendly -feelings shown bj Mrs. Davis to the church, her con stant attendance, her liberal do nations to It, her friendly interest In every movement connected with the church. He stated that while she donated the site for a boys home at Tur ner which was erected by the Eu gene Bible University he stated she later became on unfriendly terms with the Bible University and strongly expressed herself as being opposed to the Bible University ever getting any of her money or having any one connected with the institution having anything to say about It. The Rev. Mr. Gilstrap. stated that while the Bible Univer sity built the boys' home on the site donated by Mrs. Davis it was generally understood its reason for doing so was to maintain her friendship so that the fortune on her death would go to that uni versity. R. J. Hendricks, who stated he visited Mrs. Davis a number of times not long before her death In order to secure biographical data from her, stated she had discussed with him a number of times the matter of using her fortune to go to support a home for the needy. She had discussed the matter with him of the Congregational church handling it, as he was a member of that church but he stated he investigated and found her plan impracticable as far as that church was concerned and advised her against it. He said she never dis cussed her will with him or the matter of a trust or trustee. Other witnesses, including S. M. Endlcott, executor and Mrs. Da vis's attorney for many years, told of Mrs. Davis's Inclinations In the matter. The Rev. Mr.' Gilstrap made It plain that the christian church of Turner in offering to accept the trusteeship did so more as a duty and an obligation than considering It a privilege and that the congre gation had not voted on the mat ter yet as it was understood no vote would be taken until It was determined the court would select , the church as trustee and then the congregation would vote as to whe ther the church should take on the burden of building and maintain ing the new home as provided by Mrs. Davis. ... It is understood the case will appeal regardless of what Judge ' Lewclling decides.
