Escapes Balloon Fall to Slip On Soap By The lnie4 Pma CLEVELAND. O. Tom I Sample read newspaper accounts of the nineteenth Gordon Bennett balloon race a bit wistfully today. Twenty-two years ago, in the 1908 race. Sample and his aide fell 20.000 feet into Lake Erie when the extreme cold caused the gas in their racing balloon to contract.

A passing steamer rescued them Just as the balloon was sinking. Today Sample lies in a hospital bed following the race by newspaper and radio. The man who fell 20,000 feet and lived to tell about it slipped on a cake of soap In a bathtub and dislocated his hip.

Chief Boatswain's Mat M. G. Mc-Cune, in command of the Erie Station of the Coast Guard, 'is skeptical of the existence of the new rum fleet, but is maintaining a vigilant lookout.

Some rum runners armor their boats around the gasoline tanks, and have an airplane compass so that the steersman can lie on the bottom of the boat and guide it by looking at the compass, according to McCune. The shore line of Western Pennsylvania's nautical backyard affords comparatively few places where a smuggler can land his illicit goods. He must pick a beach in a secluded spot where his boat can get close enough inshore to unload. In most instances, the cases of liquor are carried to shore in a skiff. Sometimes the smugglers wade to shore with the liquor on their shoulders.

The runner must pick a cove accessible from the shore road, so the bootleggers' truck squadron can drive; away. Many beaches have only one road, so prohibition agents can readily bottle up the whisky trucks, if they catch the smugglers at work. Hijacker Is Feared The smuggler lives in constant fear of the hijacker, who may steal his liquor if he caches it. A constant warfare between smugglers and hijackers goes on beneath the surface of the illicit trade. The smugglers must constantly UNIONTOWN, Pa.

States Attorneys today demanded the death penalty for Tony Bell, former county detective who is charged with the murder of John P. Donohoe, July 31, 1929. on a "ride." "It must be either first degree or nothing." declared District Attorney J. B. Adams, who indicated that Bell was either guilty of killing Donohoe or guilty of nothing pertaining to the crime.

There can be no compromise, the official said. Judge Thomas H. Hudson presided. Bell appeared confident over the outcome of the trial. He displayed no signs of worry or apprehension.

That makes it 16 miles to the imaginary dotted line dividing American and Canadian waters. The Coast Guard cannot cross the line in pursuit of rum runners and large rum ships dare not crass it. The tactics of the rum runners is to race for shore in powerful motorboats, running tfirough the night without lights. The rum war on Lake Erie is a game of hide and seek along a coast which offers few likely hiding places to the smuggler.

On Aug. 26, a small boat with an outboard, motor was seized on suspicion of carrying liquor, but none was found.
