Filings Found in Plane Manifold
Wiley Post’s Ship Victim Of Tampering, Reports Of Experts Show
By United Preas.
Laboratory specialists in Los Angeles last night found metal filings and “a quantity of emery and similar abrasives in an intake manifold of Wiley Post’s monoplane, Winnie Mae.
Tests were made by Arthur R. Mass of Pacific Airmotives, in charge of repairs on the plane, to determine what caused the oil line leak that forced down Post’s plane last Friday in a projected stratosphere flight across the continent.
The filings were in the manifold between the supercharger and the engine. Experts said they did not believe the filings could have got there unless somebody put them in the manifold.
A report on the finding* was turned over to police.
Jewish Club Plans First Spring Dance
Tickets for the S.C. Jewish Student council’s first annual spring dance, to be given on Saurday, March 16, at the Rancho Country club, may now be purchased in the religious conference office, 258 Administration building. Irving Baum, in charge of sales, announces.
Bids, priced at one dollar, previously could only be bought from the members of the ticket committee and the organization’s officers. Within several days they will be available at the cashier's window in the book store of the Student Union.
General advisory committee members who met yesterday to arrange details for the affair decided that the dance would be informal.
Angry W iley Post Reaches Newark
NEWARK. N. J., Feb. 28.—<UJB)— Wiley Post, aviator, arrived here today from Burbank, Calif, on a transport plane.
Post was in a belligerent mood when he arrived and talked to newspaper men. At first he denied saying at Kansas City that steel filings and emery had been placed in the motor of his ship, Winnie Mae, which failed him last week on his attempted stratosphere flight.
Then he repeated practically the entire story credited to him at Kansas City.
I don’t know who put that stuff in there,” he said, “but I would like to know why it was done.”
His machine had not been guarded, he said. “Why the hell should it be?” he snapped. “Who’d expect a dirty trick like that to be pulled?” Post declared he was not trying to alibi himself and that he would attempt the flight “just as soon as the motor can be repaired."
“I don’t believe I have a personal enemy in the world,” he added, declaring he wouldn’t name a person he suspected.
“Any investigation would be up to the manufacturer of the motor,” he said. “I haven’t requested any.
I want the public to know this isn’t an alibi, and that I’m going to try it again—soon.”
Robinson Leaves Meeting With Roosevelt; Has ‘Nothing To Say*
McCarren Talks to Green
Faction Leaders Express Hopes of Smashing Wage Bill Tie-Up
WASHINGTON, Feb. 28.—(IT.E>— First attempts since President Roosevelt’s return to break the deadlock betwen the white house and senate over the $4,880,000,000 works relief bill apparently failed tonight when Majority Leader Joseph T. Robinson left a conference with the chief executive and reported he had “nothing to say.”
It was learned Robinson, during conference, conferred by telephone with Sen. Robert F. Wagner, D., N.Y„ administration leader who is grouped among Mr. Roosevelt’s opponents on the prevailing wage issue.
McCarran Meets With Green
Meanwhile Sen. Pat McCarran, D., Nev., author of the amendment which wrecked administration plans and virtually halted legislative action in the senate, met with President William Green of the American Federation of Labor and other union officials endorsing his fight.
As leaders of both factions expressed hope of an early break in the deadlock, house Republican Laeder Bertrand Snell introduced a resolution which would make $880,-000,000 available for immediate relief.
Urges Consideration
He urged immediate consideration and pointed out that with the relief problem disposed of, the works project could be discussed “at leisure.”
He got $80,000,000 today to finance relief for the first three weeks in March. Officials estimated there remained only approximately $50,000,000 in this bureau that Hopkins could use until the pending works bill or a straight dole measure is enacted.
Compromise Is Sought Confronted by this situation all parties involved in the prevailing wage battle are working hard in an attempt to find a compromise acceptable to Mr. Roosevelt.
McCarran met again today with Sen. Edward Costigan, D„ Colo., Wagner, and Robert LaFollette, P., Wis., and discussed minor changes in the phraseology of the wage proposal which was submitted to labor officials late today. If they accepted the revisions, the revised amendment will be turned over to senate leadrs for ultimate approval of the president.

Miracle! Stage Stars Are Modest During Luncheon
Faculty Members Judge Manuscripts
By Justin Jeffries
Borcozque To Talk To La Tertulians
La Tertulia, the Spanish lunch-con club, will have as its guest of honor on March 4, Senor Carlos Borcozque, formerly of Chile, now a motion picture director in Hollywood. Senor Borcozque was a pioneer in the field of aviation in Chile. The topic of his speech will doubtless be taken from his experiences and observations.
Modesty is a virtue which one finds in this day and age with about the same frequency as Hailey's comet (I.e., once in 76 years, for the unscientific-minded), but when one discoverst becoming quantities of modesty in the persons of a group of noted stars of stage and screen who are, incident- [ ally, very nice people, then the situation begins to become about as miraculous as the finding of a bevy of dodo birds nesting in the city hall.
Members of the cast of “Merrily We Roll Along,” now functioning at the Belasco theatre as Los Angeles’ outstanding stage hit, provided S.C. students with a miracle yesterday by being positively and undeniably modest at a luncheon sponsored in their honor by the University play productions department.
The scene is in the Women’s Residence hall; time, 12:15 p.m.; dramatis personae, members of the cast, members of the S.C. faculty, administration, and student body, 'rise 'PlorpTip** Hubbard, director «f
campus play productions and professor of speech, introduces Norman Markwell, public relations director for the Belasco show; Mr. Markwell presents, one by one, Erin O’Brien-Moore, Virginia Cherrill,
Eileen Clifton, Harry Ellerbe, Lane Alan, and Haila Gude and Philip Ahn of S.C.
Had they been introduced together instead of singly, the answer would have been a chorus: “Why, we can't speak!” And, reader(s), the peculiar thing about it is, however untrue it may have been, they meant it.
Not to be outdone, Vice-Presi- class dent Touton came back with an adage. ’“Those who can, do,” said he “while those who can’t, teach.
Those who can’t teach, teach others to teach. Our guests belong in the first group; I refuse to place the remainder of us here.”
The most enjoyable part of an enjoyable hour arrived at the conclusion of the luncheon when students devoted an informal fifteen minutes to proving the Misses O’Brien-Moore. Cherrill. Clifton, et al. to be tellers of little white fibs.

EL PASO. Feb. 28— <CP)—Community tragedy was averted today when 150 striking employes of the El Paso Electric company agreed to return to work, after 12 hours of complete electrical paralysis in El Paso and Juarez, Mexico.
Residents of the twin cities had a taste of that tragedy, however, when hospitals were deprived of current and light in their operating rooms, in children’s wards, and in laboratories.
Not an x-ray machine could be used. Sterilizing equipment was put out of business. Children, frightened, cried in the darkness until nurses brought them small flashlights.
For more than 12 hours, not a street car was running, there was no power for factories, and no electric light for homes.
Bob Haugh, assisted by Scott! Brewer and Draxy Trengove will, be in charge of ths speakers’ andi guests’ committee, while Margaret, King and Marthaellen Broomfield will comprise the publicity committee.
Chairman of the inter-faith committee wiil be Jack Frankish. Aided by Phyllis Norton, Leon Berger, and John McKram, he will study the contributions of the religious conference to the campus, report inter-faith discriminations on the campus, and publicize all discriminations on the editorial page of the Daily Trojan.
