LINDY ACCEPTS , LEGION BID TO GIVE ADDRESS i ‘Lone Eagle’ Is Convention Speaker; 1,000 Planes Expected. BY RICHARD C. WILSON United Press Staff Correspondent SAN ANTONIO, Texas, Sept. 28 the shadow of The Alamo, most sacred of all war shrines to Texana, America’s participants in the World War, will assemble here Oct. 8 for the tenth annual na- ' tional convention of the American l Legion. The Alamo, known to Texans as the "Cradle of Texas Liberty,” has been carefully preserved. A visit j to the Lone Star State is considered incomplete without a visit to the building in which Texas’ first major battle against Mexico was fought on March 6, 1836, four days after Texas declared its independ- . ence. * An attendance of more than 75,rOOO is anticipated at the conven- ) tion, according to the local housing committee. More airplanes will be used by visiting legionnaires for this convention than at any previous ' one. Reports of flight parties have been received from New York; Brockton Mass.; Cincinnati-; Cheyenne; Kan -kakee, HI.; Clearfield, Pa.; Los Angeles, and Columbus. * Whereas the defenders of The Alamo, all of whom were slain, had only muzzle-loaders, the convention here will devote much of its attention to the most modern method of combat—airplanes. Efforts are being made to mobilize 1,000 airplanes here during the convention. Col. Charles A. Lindbergh has accepted an invitation to be one of the principal convention speakers. He is expected to emphasize the imortance to the nation of an adequate aerial defense. With Brooks and Kelly fields located nearby, San Antonio is one of the aviation centers of America.

Co-ed Is Cook

Miss Isabella Schlensker, who worked her way through Evansville College last year by acting as chief cook in the home of a wealthy Evansville physician, is attending Purdue University this year and again defraying her expenses by cooking. She’s an expert in home economics and plans to make that her career, pointing out that there is a big demand for culinary experts, home demonstrators and dietitians. Hundreds of army fliers are trained at these two fields annually. All planes stationed at these two fields and at Fort Crockett, near Galveston, Texas, will participate in the aerial program planned for the convention. The governments of Cuba, Canada and Mexico will send squadrons of airplanes to the convention. The War Department has been requested to order all World War pilots still in Army service to San Antonio for a reunion of war pilots. Canada will lead the parade by virtue of its increased American Legion membership. The next three States in line, determined by the per cent of increase in membership during the past year, will be Alamama, Louisiana and Mississippi.

PREVENTION OF FIRE DRIVE SET FOROCT. 7-13 Chief Voshell Calls on Citizens to Aid in Week’s Campaign. Fire Chief Harry E. Voshell today appealed to citizens to aid the fire prevention campaign the week of Oct. 7-13. ' The program will center on educational activities and demonstrations in homes, public buildings, industries and stores. Statistics show that 60 per cent, of the fires take place in homes and that 67 per cent of fire deaths occur in dwellings, Voshell said. Eliminate Fire Hazards Special attention to the elimination of fire hazards will be given during the drive, he declared. "In order to effectively combat the fire menace, this year’s fire prevention campaign must be the most complete and efficient as well as the most entsusiastic on record. “Systematic avoidance of fires throughout the year is the need of this city* We should practice each day the lessons learned in fire prevention week,” Voshell declared. Make Drive Continuous Fire prevention in Indianapolis is a matter of "365 days and not a spontaneous drive,” Frank Jordan, Chamber of Commerce fire prevention chairman, said. "Our splendid fire prevention record is due to the efforts which begin Jan. 1 and do not end until the last day of December. Our program for fire prevention week, Oct. 7-13, will be a city-wide observance in keeping with the national activities,” Jordan said. Children’s Home Given $7,000 BLOOMINGTON, Ind., Sept. 28. The will of John S. Keller, farmer near here, leaves $7,000 of his estate to the Indiana Methodist Children’s Home at Lebanon.
