3 GROUPS HEAD FOR ANTARCTIC IN SEPTEMBER Byrd, Wilkins and Jeffrey, All Friends, to Lead Expeditions. Bn United Press NEW YORK, Aug. 9.—Three adventuresome friends, natives of countries lying at opopsite points of the globe, will within a few weeks be leading expeditions along routes as, variant as their native lands to spend a six-months-long summer day in the mysterious, south polar continent of the Antarctic. One of them is Commander Richard Evelyn Byrd, United States Navy, retired, a native of the United States. Another is Capt. Sir George Hubert Wilkins, a native of Australia, born of an old French family, the De Villiers. The third is Commander Douglas George Jeffrey, Royal Navy, retired, a native of England. Start, at Same Time Byrd and Wilkins will start approximately at the same time, on a day early in September, from opposite sides of the North American continent, Byrd from New York and Sir Hubert from San Francisco. Toward the end of September Jeffrey will sail from New York. Despite the later date of sailing, Jeffrey expects to be on the field of operations earlier than his two friends, because he has less distance to travel. , Jeffrey expects to sail directly southward, visiting Argentina to cooperate with meteorological experts of that nation. Montevideo will be his last port of call and he will sail past the tip of South America, slip into the Ant-, arctice circle and establish his headquarters on Graham Land on the coast of the Weddell Sea. His crew, including ship hands, will number about twenty-five. V Byrd to Spend Winter Commander Byrd with his fiftyfive men, his Eskimo dogs, his airplanes and his equipment for spending not only the coming summer day, but a six-months night and an other day in the Antarctic, will t\ke a much longer route, proceeding to New Zealand. Wilkins, from his Pacific coast starting point, expects to go to Panama, barter there for passage for his retinue, which will not exceed seven men, and go to Tasmania where he will board a w'haler bound for the Ross Sea in the Antarctic about Nov. 1, beginning his flight from a point probably within 250 miles of Commander Byrd’s base about Jan. 1. Jeffrey Returns in May Upon arriving in Ross Sea, Sir Hubert expects to drop overboard his Lockheed seaplane, similar to 'the Lockheed Vega plane in which he flew over the North Pole from Alaska to Spitzbergen last spring, toward Grhaam Land, landing beside one of the forty whaling vessels usually operating at that season. Aboard the whaler he expects to be taken back to Montevideo. Jeffrey will spend only the Antarctic summer season in his explorations, returning to civilization next May.

Unbobbed Queen

SALESMEN FIGHT PULLMAN FEE Surcharge Is War Hangover; Costly to Public. By Times Special PALO ALTO, Cal, Aug. 9.—Traveling salesmen, 912.000 strong, are waging war on the railroad companies’ Pullman surcharge of 50 per cent. This is a hang-over from war days and costs the traveling public $40,000,000 a year. Since it was re-imposed in 1920 it has taken $320,000,000, without adding any service. It goes not to the Pullman company, but to the railways. What it means may be sensed from the fact that Pullman ticket from Los Angeles to San Francisco that costs $6 has only $4 worth of Pullman service in it and $2 of surcharge. William G. Adams, secretary of the Travelers’ National Legislative Committee, is now in the West “educating” the public and its candidates. Repeal of the surcharge has passed the United States Seriate three times, twice unanimously and once 56 to 8. It reached the House only once when it was defeated by a margin of sixty-six. It is this “bloc” of sixty-six Congressmen that the traveling men are out to “educate.” Adams declares that it is “an economic outrage,” and "a polite form of highway robbery.” 1 NEW ALUMINUM USE Process Is Discovered for Electrotyping Metal. By Times Specie^ EVANSTON, 111., Aug. 9.—Aluminum, heretofore thought impossible to electroplate, has been successfully put through that process by Prof. D. B .

So far as is known here this is the first time that a process suitable of plating alminum to other metals has ever been devised. Its importance to industry is said to be tremendous. BUY CARS ON CREDIT Installment Plan of Payment Spreads to England. By United Press LONDON, Aug. 9.—lnstallment plan buying of automobiles has spread to Great Britain. A manager of one of the big automobile agencies of tjie country said today that at least 55 per cent of his sales were conducted on this plan.

Fitzmaurice, who has Just completed two of the greatst pictures First National has ever made, according to stuido officials, is to be at the megaphone on "Changelings” featuring Dorothy Mackaill. the initial dialogue picture from the Burbank plant. “Lilac Time,” Colleen Moore’s charming romance now at its world premiere showing in Los Angeles, breaking records, and “The Barker,” the story of carnival life soon to be released, are the two pictures Fitzmaurice has recently finished. Judg- j ing from its world premiere, “Lilac Time” will be. a box office sensation and “The Barker” is also expected to be a high.y successful picture. Probably no other director has been among the top-notchers as long as George Fitzmaurice. He has. been identified with motion pictures for almost fifteen years, and his pictures have been uniformly successful over a long period of years. His "Dark Angel,” with its delicate romance, “Kick In,” one of the first successful melodramas: “On With the Dance,” which set the pace for jazz pictures; and the Billie Dove and Mary Astor pictures for First National, featured by grogeous sets and exotic beauty, all stamp Fitzmaurice as a director of exceptional versatility, who imparts to stories of varied types a sincerity and conviction that makes them successful. “Changelings,” the first talking picture from First National, is from an original story by Donn Byrne. It opens in a courtroom where a beautiful woman is on trial for murder and it is hers that the drama of

ADE BACK CIRCUS DAY Humorist Gets Show for Kentland ; Despite Town’s Small Size. Bn Times Special KENTLAND. Ind., Aug. 9.—Today is more than circus day in Kentland. It’s George Ade’s circus day, because it was at the invitation of the humorist that the Hagenback- j Wallace circus is here today. Ade said recently that he wanted Everybody to “have a good time.” His idea of a good time apparently was seeing a circus. But, Kentland being regarded as somewhat under the regulation size for the big tops, j Ade made a bid to attract the Hag- j enback-Wallace show to his “home j town.” The bid was accepted.

It May Be llnpl MNMHfigBmN. Ipjjk n#4 ..ij -- gill H j When your Children Ciy for It Castoria is a comfort when Baby is fretful. No sooner taken than the little one is at ease. If restless, a few drops soon bring contentment. No harm done, for Castoria is a baby remedy, meant for babies. Perfectly safe to give the youngest infant; you have the doctors’ word for that! It is a vegetable product and you could use it every day. But it’s in an emergency that Castoria means most. Some night when constipation must be relieved—or colic pains—or other suffering. Never be without it; some mothers keep an extra bottle, unowned, to make sure there will always be Castoria in the house. It is effective for older children, too: read the book that comes with it.
