HELEN WILLS MAKES BOW TO QUEEN TONIGHT One of 200 Women Who Will Curtsey Before British Throne. BY STEWART BROWN I ntted Press Staff ( orrrspondpnl LONDON, May 9. An ordeal more tryinp than the actual presentation to the British court began this afternoon for Mi.ss Helen Wills, ■who. with eleven other Americans, will make her bow tonight to Queen Mary. After having her hair carefully dressed in the morning, Miss Wills dressed this afternoon in her court gown and motored to Buckingham palace, where she was to wait lor three hours for the gates to open t 8:30. Miss Wills was to be accompanied by Miss Harriet Walker of Piedmont, Cal. They were to sit in a Rolls-Royce loaned to Miss Wills by an anonymous friend among hundreds of other automobiles similarly waiting in The Mall. Ordeal in C rowds The ordeal was in the curious crowds, including hundreds from the east end slum . who pressed their noses to the car windows, admiring gowns and jewels and passing comments. sometimes approving and sometimes, with cockney independence, disparaging. Miss Wills took along some sandwiches to serve in lieu of dinner during the wait, and some books to read. She planned to drive to the palace at 5:30 to be among the first to enter the throne room and obtain a place near the queen, who enters at 9:30. The number of seats in the throne room is limited and the debutantes are forced to line up long in advance if they want places. The American tennis champion put her favorite sport aside today j to join eleven other American j women who made the long drive up j The Mall to social distinction. Besides Mi s Wills the following young American women were invited for presentation tonight. Miss Virginia Willys, Toledo. O.; Miss Elizabeth Bern, New York City: Miss Alice Coonley, Chicago; Miss Lillian Emerson. Black Mountain. N. C.; Mrs. Albert Halstead, Cincinnati; Miss Jocelyn Pierson, Baltimore, and Miss Harriet Walker, Piedmont, Cal. Another contingent of eight Americans will be presented Friday night. Miss Wills will leave for Holland Friday. Only One Thrown Mrs. Ray Atherton, wife of the American charge d'affaires, was to present the American women to Queen Mary, but she was ill today and it was believed Mrs. Friedrich Sthamer, wife of the German ambassador. would present the Airier- | icans as ranking lady of the diplo- ! matlc corps. Senora Alfonso Merry Del Val, wife of the dean of the | corps, is absent from England. As in the days of Queen Victoria, I only one thror.e w ill be placed in the throne room tonight, and Queen j Mary alone will accept the curtseys ' of the 200 women from many lands ' who were invited on behalf of King ! George and herself. The Prince of Wales and other members of the royal family will stand to the rear of the throne after l accompanying the queen into the i room.

Horse Money

Man Freed of Booze Charge Duplicates Former Governor.

PAT ÜBERTO. 3937 Prospect street, humble citizen, today was able to claim a share of the spotlight gained by a former Governor, who explained a $2,500 check with a horse deal. Pat had a horse, too. In fact, he told a jury in federal court which acquitted him late Tuesday, a marked $1 bill which dry agents found in his pocket was part payment on a S3O horse and wagon he had sold to Thomas Burns, 1125 South Kealing avenue, junk dealer. Dry agents and police officers, who raided his home about fifteen minutes after they had given the dollar to Burns, who said they went to Überto home and returned with the liquor, were of the opinion Burns had given Überto the dollar for the half-pint of whisky.” Burns testified he got the liquor from a cache in the alley, then hurried to Überto’s house to make another payment on the horse and wagon. After a stirring argument by Miss Jessie Levy, Überto’s attorney. in which she told the jury that as an attorney she had taken an oath to support “all of the Constitution." the jury reached a verdict of acquittal in ten minutes. "I took an oath to support all the Constitution, not just to support the eighteenth amendment and violate all the other amendments in order to enforce this one amendment,” Miss Levy told the jury. San Marino, Europe's smallest republic, has an area of thirty-eight square miles and a population of nearly 13.000. It is situated in the hills near Rimini, on the Adriatic.

Johns Hopkins University (Copyright, 1929. by Science Service) How would I pick a single genius? I wouldn’t. To find the most promising group out of a large class of high school students. I should pick out the quartiie of the class making the best school record. Asa second elimination contest, any good achieverr -nt or intelligence test would sort out the highest tenth. But which of these, if any. would prove to be a major contributor to the world's progress no one could predict. Mr. Edison might just as well take the brightest boy in Jersey City or in Lancaster and give him the opportunity of becoming an electrical wizard as to carry the quest through forty-eight states and attempt to pick a potential genius.

NATIVES FEAR ! END OF WORLD DURING ECLIPSE I Sun Hidden 13 Minutes in Philippines: Studied by Scientists. BY H. R. KKINS, United Press Staff Uorrcspondnt MANILA, P. 1.. May 10.—Failure of the world to end with the total eclipse of the sun Thursday left hundreds of natives in an embarrassing position throughout the southern islands today. While noted scientists packed up masses of reports made during the phenomenon, the superstitious of the islands frantically sought to regain their earthly belongings given away in anticipation of the “end of time’’ Despite the assurance of officials that the world would not end. and the prediction of Tio Bucoy, aged astronomer of Iloila that even tho eclipse would not occur, panicstricken natives began disposing of their possessions as the twilight o£ the eclipse descended. The legal status of their claims to regain their belongings will remain a problem for the island government to settle, as no precedent exists. The eclipse Wednesday was the first in 300 years. At 2:07 p. m., the eclipse started and for more than an hour the moon continued its revolution until the sun was obscured, for a period of thirteen minutes in some parts of the islands. The eclipse became total at 3:39 p. m. and electric lights were necessary for those remaining indoors. With few exceptions, however, the populace was outside, staring at tho sky with smoked glasses. Scientists from five large observatories of the world were on the islands Panay and Cebu to record the event, observing the shift of the sun’s spectral lines, bending light around the sun and secular motion of the periphelion of planets. They were equipped with instruments worth thousands of dollars. They expected to obtain valuable data on Einstein’s theory of relativity.
