CLEVELAND, Sept. 1. P) Of all
the thrllla of the national air races,
probably none gives the spectators
such a breath-taking anxiety as tne
daring leaps of the parachute
Jumpers.
Though many of the world's great

that even blrda can't equal, lt'a the
boys who Jump out who give the
crowds their greatest "kick."
And of all the Jumpers, none have
made the air race crowds gasp like
H. E. (Spud) Manning, who plunges
two miles downward in a deatn- de
fying leap before he opens his para-

Manning waa In fine form yester
day and leaped from an autogyro at

each fraction of a second, he shot
toward the ground, marking his
progress by releasing a trail pi flour,
Rolling over and over in tne air,
Manning dropped to within 800 feet

Former Member of Wilson

crat Wave of Popularity
By Pearce Daries.
(Associated Preea Staff Writer.)
SAM FRANCISCO, Sept. I. (JP)
William Olbbs McAdoo, member of
the Woodrow Wilson cabinet, now
carried on the wave of a political
comeback, will contest November's
general election with young Tallant
Tubbs, San Francisco rope manufac
turer, for the senate seat now held
by Samuel M. Shortrldge.
The Associated Press tabulation of
unofficial returna from Tuesday's
primary closed today, with only 338
precincts unrecorded of the state's
10,531. The figures Indicated def
initely the nomination of Tubbs, Re
publican, and McAdoo, Democrat, and
the defeat of Shortrldge, Republican,
for 13 yean California's Junior sen
ator.
Well over half of the state'a 3,5.-
000 registered voters participated In
the primary.
Incumbent congressmen seeking re-
nomination won, with one exception,
and that fight was close. California
this year electa 30 congressmen In
place of the 11 now serving, due to
reapportionment.
In the ninth district unofficial re
turns gave Glenn M. DeVore only 11
votes more than H. E. Barbour, In
cumbent. The totals were 10,339 and
10,336. Absent voters' ballots to be
counted September 6 may determine
the outcome. Only one precinct
635 was missing In the unofficial re
turns. The fight for the senatorial nom
inations found the Republican vote
split four ways, not counting the
trailing fifth candidate, while Mo
Adoo had but one formidable rival.
Here Is the situation at a glance:

alignment, one of the most winding

Now the fills had had their natu

eventually the Cavemen may repre

California always did have on
custom that they took aerioug,
but it amused the rest of th
U. S. That wag in calling every
thing a "ranch." Everything
big enough to spread a double
mnttrefii on is called a
"ranch."
Well, up here in these moun
tains where there is lots of fish
ing, why every house yon pass
they sell fishing worms and it's
called a "worm" ranch. Well,
I always did want to own a
"ranch," so I am in the market
for a good worm ranch. I never
was so hot as a cowboy, but I .
believe I would make a good
"worm herder."
If I can land our presidents
as clients, I could make It sound
like England when they sell to
the king "Rogers' worm
ranch, purveyor to his excel
lency, the president."
