SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. —Capt. George Whittell, Woodside millionaire sportsman, soon will fly one of the largest privately owned airplanes in the world, it was announced today. He has ordered the Boeing Airplane Co. of Seattle to build him one of their huge four-motored monoplanes, similar to the “flying fortress” recently completed for the U. S. Navy. The plane will cost between $300,C00 and $400,000. Instead of machine guns and bomb racks, it will contain luxurious lounges, bedrooms, a kitchen and dining room as well as sleeping quarters for a crew of (five. The plane will have a cruising [ speed of 230 miles an hour and a | cruising radius of 2500 miles.

T was late in the afternoon of March 4, 1936, that a black sedan loafed into Greenville, a sleepy little county seat in rural Darke County, Ohio, just over the Indiana line. The main street is an extremely wide thoroughfare some four blocks in length and lined with business places. Fronting on it at about the middle of its length is the Darke County Court House and the County Jail residence of Sheriff Linn Brown. A short half block east is the corner jewelry store of R. O. Wieland. In the rear of the store, Watchmakers Robert Gray and Ralph Snyder were busy tinkering with obstinate timepieces as the wall clock struck 5. Half an hour until closing. Then Mr. Gray stepped out around the grilled partition as a young man entered the store. “Something for you?” asked Mr. Gray. “I'd like to look at a diamond,” replied the man. From force of habit Mr. Gray sized up the customer, neatly Gressed, dark suit and a snapbrim felt hat that dropped toward a rather long and prominent nose.

R. GRAY was certain he had 4 never seen him before. He pulled out a ring at a time, taking care not to get too many on the showcase at once. His customer examined them with the air of an expert, finally making a selection oi one. “I'll have to let the girl friend make the final decision,” he ex-
piained. “She's down the street shopping. I'll step out and get her.’ Mr. Gray went back to his
watches, but less than 10 minutes later he was stepping out front again as his customer returned. No “girl friend” was with him. Instead an older and a shorter man followed him in. An instant later the snub nose of an automatic in the hands of the short nan jolted him under the ribs. “This is a stickup. Get back there.” The words came so low that Mr. Snyder noticed nothing amiss until the midget gunman was standing over him. “Down on the floor.”

the rear room stepped Wieland, right into the muzzle of the robber’s gun and he took his place on the floor beside his employees. The customer had gone over the store carefully to see that all rear doors were locked and he came marching back with a fourth employee, L. J. Sharritt. “Drill the first or makes a move,”

a pleasant greeting and continued selecting pieces from the show window. Mr. Hussey walked on. He'd seen men trimming windows before and it was getting close to supper time. With the window “trimmed” the erstwhile customer yelled back to his pal. The runt leaned over the four men prostrate on the floor. “Stay right where you are for five minutes,’ he said. “I'll be right outside the partition and the first man who raises his head’ll get it.” Outside they heard a motor roar away and the four men leaped to their feet. “Get out and get the number,” Mr. Wieland yelled, “while I call the sheriff.” It was 5:25. In 15 minutes the gang had looted the store and carted $8000 worth of diamonds and watches, even fountain pens, across the street to the waiting car. “Couldn't see ’'em,” Mr. Wieland's employees reported in the minute interval before the arrival of Sheriff Brown. “I think they headed south,” Mr. Wieland informed the Sheriff, who immediately dispatched Chief Deputy John Lynch and Deputies Harry Neiswonger and Irving Pequignot in pursuit.

PTS HEAT CONTROL
No more “guesswork” baking when you own a new gas range. Heat control gives you exact temperature up to 550 degrees.
FLEXIBLE TOP HEAT, TOO
Top burners on the modern gas ranges light attomatically. New simmer burners enable you to do waterless cooking.
SMOKELESS BROILER
The new speed broiler cuts broiling time in half. New high temperature seals in more flavor. And these new broilers won't smoke.
’ Like your car, your Gas Range has an almost infinite variety of speeds. A simple turn of the gas valve handle and you have the exact temperature you need at the moment. Gas gives intense searing heat . . . a tiny simmering flame . . . or any degree of heat in between. That's why your Gas Range gives perfect, uniform results for any kind of cooking. See the new Gas Ranges at our showrooms. They have many new features to save you time and work in the kitchen. -
CAS COOKING SCHOOL
Be sure to attend the Gas Cooking School at English's Theater, October 13, 14 and 15. Miss Ruth Chambers, famous cooking authority, will prepare delicious meals with a new Gas Range. Find out at the Cooking School how much a new Gas Range will help you with your cooking problems.
