Rules Violated in Teaching Young
| Aviators,
| Violations of the provisions of the
aeronautics act relating to the teach-
ing of students to operate aircraft has
been reported to the department of |
internal affairs. These reports are
now being checked through investiga-
tors and, if verified, proceedings will
be instituted by the department.
i The student-pilot provision in the
aeronautics act, which became effec-
tive July 1, makes it unlawful for a
student to take instructions in flying
before he has submitted to a physi-
cal examination and been granted a
permit by the department of internal
affairs.
Attention also is being given to the
class of pilots who are permitted, un-
der the law, to instruct students.
None but transport pilots may give
' such instructions, and their planes al-
so must carry a license, issued by the
department’s bureau of aeronautics.
. One case is now under investigation
| where students are alleged to have
i been receiving instructions from un-
licnsed pilots flying unlicensed planes.
James F. Woodward, secretary of the
department of internal affairs, and
| chairman of the State Aeronautics
. Commission, has directed that a thor-
' ough investigation of all complaints
be made promptly and offenders sum-
‘ marily dealt with.
| “In any cases,” said Woodward,
pilots who are licensed in the trans-
‘ port class do not have a clear under-
| standing of the law concerning the in-
struction of student flyers. When
| their attention has been called to the
matter they have seen to it that the
sudents take the neecssary physical
test. There also have been cases
where limited commercial, industrial
and private pilots have not had a
_ clear understanding of the air regu-
lations. The error has been called to
| their attention and they have ceased
| their activities. It is those who un-
' derstand the regulations and have ig-
‘ nored them that the department will
| proceed against.”
Transport pilots carrying passen-
‘ gers for hire or reward are now be-
ing licensed by the aeronautics bu-
vreau. This class must not only carry
a Pennsylvania license, but in addi-
| tion have a certificate of public con-
| venience, issued by the public service
| commission.
—“Well, George,” said a country
| clergyman to an old man who sat by
(the wayside breaking stones, “that
| pile doesn’t seem to get any less.” No,
wicar,” replied the old man, “them

| yer can go on breakin’ ‘em, but yer
| can’t get rid of ’em.”

LET'S GO 100% STRONG
FOR COLLEGE BOND ISSUE.
Centre County Should Start Work
Now to Help Her Big Institu-
tion of Learning.
Every vote to be cast in Centre
county in November should be a
“yes” to the proposal for a bond is-
sue for new buildings at The Penn-
sylvania State College.
In proportion to her wealth and
importance, the State of Pennsyl-
vania has invested a smaller amount
of public funds in her State College
than any other State in the Union.
This statement is one of many facts
| concerning the Pennsylavnia State
College that will be distributed to vot-
ers of the State in an educational
campaign which President Ralph D.
Hetzel has announced will be conduct-
ed on a state-wide basis up to the
election on November 6, when voters
will be asked to approve a bond issue
amendment of $8,000,000 for State
College buildings.
Already under way, the educational
campaign is headed by a special com-
mittee of trustees under the leader-
ship of Henry D. Brown, a Yale grad-
uate and for many years a State Col-
lege trustee, and E. S. Bayard, edi-
tor of the National Stockman and
Farmer. Financing is by prominent
men and women of the State who are
concerned with the advancement of
public education, and by alumni and
parents who have organized for the
purpose.
For years the need for expansion
to meet demands made by the people
has been felt keenly at the State Col-
lege. Thousands of student appli-
cants have been refused admission in
the past ten years, and the valuable
research and extension services of the
college that reach every county and
community in the State have been
handicapped, all because building
is so limited.
The State College plea for build-
ings through the bond issue method
is to be based largely on the fact that
this method will provide an immedi-
ate and assured means fer the con-
struction of buildings, resulting in
economies that otherwise might not
be available. A definite building pro-
gram has been completed by trustees
and in a period of years is an im-
portant factor in efficiency, trustees
declare.
Hearty endorsement of the State
College bond issue has come from
more than a score of State-wide or-
ganizations, including the State
Grange, the State Education Associa-
tion, and many farmer and industrial
groups. Students and alumni are
prepared to distribute information in
every county, their goal being not less
than a million favorable votes for the
constitutional amendment.

Give Reasons for Earlier Season to
Shoot Cotton-Tails.
In order that the reasons for the
early season on cottontail rabbits for
1928 may be more generally under-
stood by sportsmen, particularly those
residing in the southern counties cf
the State, the Board of Game Com-
missioners announced today that an
earlier season was provided to give
sportsmen in the northern counties a
little additional hunting, in view of
the fact that weather conditions dur-
ing November are not suitable for
good rabbit hunting and since wood-
cock have for the most part migrated
to more southerly regions by the first
of the month.
Consequently, to be fair to the
southern half of the State, it was felt
advisable to extend the season from
December 1 to 15, with a six-day-a-
week hunting period, thus giving the
southern counties an opportunity to
hunt rabbits while weather conditions
in the northern counties are unfavor-
able. When the cold and snow set
in rabbits hole-up during the day, and
hunting them at such times is unsat-
isfactory.
Since the open season for small
game begins on October 15, with a
three-day-a week hunting period, this
means that there will be only six legal
hunting days during October as
against a full fifteen days during
December. Granting that the first
three day week in October may be
comparatively warm, at least in
southern counties, it was pointed out
that the latter part of the month is
often virtually as cold as the first of
November.
The early season will permit
sportsmen in northern counties to
get a good bag, while hunters in the
southern counties will have no trou-
ble in getting their sport a little later
in the fall. The commission feels that
once these reasons are clearly under-
stood the sportsmen protesting the
early season in southern counties will
be willing to cooperate to the fullest
extent.
Beggar School in Moscow Has 8000
Students.
Moscow, Russia—Instruction in the
science and technique of begging,
given by the beggar’s union of Mos-
cow, has produced such excellent re-
sults that nearly all the members of
the union flatly refuse to give up their
profession for jobs, even when work
is available. Their average income is
from three to five rubles a day—much
better pay than any unskilled job they
might be offered.
There are approximately 8,000
beggars in the city, of which 61.2
per cent. are professional, and the re-
mainder forced into it by loss of jobs
or property.
The number is constantly increased
by peasants who come into the city
looking for work only to find that the
labor market is over-supplied and
there are no jobs.
The union, however, doesn’t both-
er with these casuals who would de-
sert its ranks as soon as honest work
is offered. It is composed of profession-
als of all ages and degrees of profi-
ciency. They divide the city into dis-
tricts and each has his beat which he
guards zealously against the infringe-
ment of outsiders. The president and
officers of the union are paid a per-
centage of the members’ incomes, and
their task is to raise the standards
of the profession and protect it
against amateurs.
Special attention is given by the
union to the instruction of blind beg-
gars, children and cripples. They
are taught to sing sob songs, to play
a few tunes on a dilapidated instru-
ment, and to make the most of physi-
cal deformities. “What the properly-
dressed beggar will wear” is given
serious study.
Even foreign languages are in-
cluded in the curriculum so that chil-
dren who beg in front of hotels and
theatres can easily spot the foreign-
ers and say, “Mister, please give mon-
ey.
Static Has Its Uses—Warns Electric
Plant of Approaching Storms.
Several electric power plants in
Pennsylvania employ the principle of
the ordinary radio to warn of ap-
proaching storms and are thus given
an opportunity of preparing for an
increased lighting demand, says the
Pennsylavnia Public Service Infor-
mation Committee.
Static electricity, abhorred by radio
fans, is utilized to ring an alarm.
“Static” is gathered by an aerial and
runs down through a device known as
a “coherer,” which decreases resist-
ance. A simple mechanism then al-
lows the current to vibrate a bell.
Warning is given the electric com-
pany from one to two hours in ad-
vance of the impending storm and
permits the company to prepare am-
ply for the increased lighting demand.
The Federal Radio Commission
has before it a petition to permit a
radio call to be inscribed on the mark-
er of a woman's grave. Mildred S.
Lorenston operated Amateur Radio
Station 1 AID in Providence, R. L,
up to the time of her death last Au-
gust. Inasmuch as she was very ac-
tive in radio, it was decided that this
call would not be assigned to any one
else. Her sister has written to the
commission requesting that the call
letter be inscribed on the grave mark-
er with commission authority.
