' BnrTinnk about 3 p. in. in a singlemotored Vultee plane owned by I the San Francisco Examiner, one of Heart's newspapers. Near the end of the 150-mile flight he ell--1 countered u seacoast fog and missed the ranch airport by about one , mile. Too late, the pilot apparently discovered the enror and turned hack, but one wing scraped the ground as he banked through the fog. The big all-metal plane heel- ' ed over and burst Into flame. Lord and Lady Plunket arrived in the United States aboard the , liner Normandie two weeks ago , and flew to the Pacific coast to 'spend the winter near their friends. Douglas Fairbanks, the retired mo--1 tion picture star, and his wife, the ’ former Lady Ashley. The Hearst home to which they . were flying is one of the show : places of the Pacific coast. The ' towered castle is perched atop a hill and dominates the seacoast i like a medieval fortress. I Lord Plunket succeeded to his I barony in 1920. The 111-year-old , title now passes to his eldest son. ' Hon. Patrick Terence William Span ’ Plunket, who is 15. In addition to the new baron, he leaves two other sons. Plunket was educated at Wellington and the royal military college at Sandhurst. His American-born wife was Dortbe Mabel, daughter of the late j Joseph Lewis, a Transvaal diamond 1 magnate, and Fanny Ward, the ' actress known as the “perennial flapper." o JOHN DeVOSS <CONTTNT’KD r'ROyt rADJj ONTT 1 Gard and J.

Capacity crowds have thronged . to the city's midway for these . fairs, which have grown to be one .i of Decatur's outstanding attrac- .! tlons. 1 Dee Fryback was unanimously selected as general chairman for I the fair, a position he has heldl , each of the years the show has , been sponsored by the Chamber of , Commerce.

At 2 a. m., Dr. Roland Davison ’ said that the General had rallied slightly from the deep coma in whjch he lay for five hours, and ' that “he appears to be responding to the stimulant they are giving i him." An attendant, explaining the Generals slight rally, said that a nurse had approached the bed and j called: "General! General!" Pershing opened his eyes, glanced upward and smiled faintly. He nodded his head in recognition but did not try to speak. The General's ailing heart was beating faintly and irregularly. He was without pain. Dr. Davidson said he believed that the General was on his deathbed. His breathing was barely discernable. his face was a blend of ashen bronze. His thinned, sil--1 very hair and inevitably wellgroomed mustache had become slightly disheveled during yesterday's weary, half-spirited struggle to rouse from his stupor. Late last night the General’s chauffeur and personal aide. Master Sergt. S. C. Schaeffer, left the desert sanitarium cottage briefly to send a telegram. He was redeyed. “Well, boys," he said to newspapermen, "I'm going to leave you ATTENTION!
