The giant fourmotored plane, with its enormous 100-foot wing, that will spread from one end of the central arena to the other, clearly wIH demonstrate to visitors the present facilities for air travel over regulated routes.

‘LOST GRASS’ OF BIBLICAL TIMES IS DISCOVERED Oregon Farmer Cultivates Tiny Patch He Found Growing Wild. Bu United Press SEATTLE, May 2.—Seven years ago Charles C. Hoover, young Medford (Ore.) farmer, was trying to show a profit from his operations vith dairy cattle and Bose pears. It was hard work. About all he could report annually to his partner, E. B. Hanley, Seattle, was a year of laboi and a deficit. In Seattle recently, Hoover donated a product of his farm for which he had a ready sale at ,>I,OOO to a committee raising funds lor the Children's Orthopedic hospital. It was a ‘‘lost grass” of oiblical times. Verge of Poverty In the seven years since he was on the verge of poverty, Hoover has become moderately wealthy and has gained world-wide fame among agriculturists for the re-discovery and distribution of the strange and valuable forage crop. In the winter of 1922 Hoover noticed a small patch of grass that was growing abundantly while all other forage crops were dormant. Hoover guarded his patch, and in the spring, just as other crops were commencing to grow, he harvested a small quantity of seed. Pasture Year Round In two years he had forty acres In the grass and was pasturing his cow T s the year around. He found that the strange crop was perennial. It would grow with alfalfa and

other deep-rooted crops, furnishing pasture when they were dormant and drying down when they were green. It killed out weeds and other plants with surface roots. Intrigued by the crop that solved his costly dairy feed problem Hoover sought to identify it. F. C. Reimer of the Southern Oregon Experiment station, after months of research, announced he believed it to be a native of Egypt—a “lost grass” of biblical history. Reimer had no explanation for its appearance on the Hanley and Hoover farm. “Poa bulbosa” was the name Reimer gave it, from the fact that, unlike other grasses, its seeds are tiny bulbs. Hoover became a crusader for his grass. Other dairymen hastened to plant it. Requests for information came from all parts of the world. In 1928 Hoover planted a large acreage by airplane, and recently arranged with R. L. Hanna, president of the Standard Oil Company of California, to sell seed to plant 10,000 acres. Hoover will be in charge of the planting and plans to scatter the seed from an airplane. MUSTACHE TWINS CLEW But Friends of British Youths Didn’t Know Wearer.

OLD DIRECTOR CITES ADVANCE IN SCENARIOS Finds Modern Film Script Better Than Meager Synopsis of Past. Bv United Press HOLLYWOOD, May 2.—The advancement of scenario writing is a true barometer of the progress of the photoplay, says Oscar Apfel, one of the first picture directors. Apfel just returned to the screen as an actor. He left stage directing in 1911 to join the Edison Film Company. For two years he worked with the Edison organization and the Reliance-Majestic company,

then joined the Lasky Feature Play Company as one of its first directors. “When I directed for RelianceMajestic, scenarios were meager synopses of stories,” Apfel declared. ••After being handed a copy of the bulky script of ‘The Texan' the other day, I got out some of the scripts for those two and three-reel pictures out of curiosity. There were only three or four pages in all. "I glanced over them and this is about the way the scenes were outlined : “‘Mary and John enter the rose garden and have a love scene,’ or ‘Tim and John meet at the entrance to the cave aq,d have a terrific fight which John wins.’ "That was all. The remainder was up to the director. Because we always had to be careful of footage (amount of film shot) I would work over each scene mentally and time my thought.” AH Can Ride Cars at Once Bu United Press _ , , PUEBLO, Colo., May 2.—Pueblo county has enough automobiles to give the entire population of the city a ride at the same time, figures computed here reveal.
