VP) Death reached Into the atr lanea today for Lt. Irvin A.

Woodrlng and thus passed the last of the army's "threo musketeers of aviation." Like his fellow musketeers, Lt. Woodring; died In harness, tryln to advance the standards of army aviation. He fell 2,000 feet near Wright field. The darln? flier's experimental attack-type slilp flew to bits and his body was thrown clear. Apparently he had no chance to use his parachute, the device that twice before had saved his life, as it was found unopened on the body.

In 1928 while stationed at "Rockwell field, San Diego, Wood-ring and two fellow lieutenants W. L. Cornelius and J. Williams won worldwide renown and their title of musketeers by their daring feats. The first to die was Lt.

Williams, wTio crashed in an inverted formation at the national air races at Los Angeles in the same year. Lieut. Cornelius met death a month later in a collision with Lt. Roger V. Williams, who parachuted to safety.

PHOENIX HAS FIRST SNOW IN 13 YEARS PHOENIX, Jan. 20. (Phoenicians gazed in excited wonderment tonight at great white flakes of snow which fluttered out of the black night for an hour and a half and laid a thin coverlet on lawns in some sections of the city. Many of the younger citizens saw snow for the first time In their lives it was the first officially recorded snowfall in 13 years and only the tenth in the history of the local weather bureau. The phenomenon brought many excited telephone calls to the weather bureau and to newspaper offices.

Official government records show the snow fell from 7:55 p. m. until 9:25 p. m. Most of the flakes melted as they struck the ground but in some of the outlying districts of the city and at Scotts-dale, nine miles from here, the snow measured an inch deep on lawns.

Some time ago the Metropolitan Life Insurance company carried a full page advertisement in Time and other magazines portraying a group of bona fide business executives seated around the w. k. conference table listening to the equally w. k. quarterly harangue from the president of the company.

Dave Bloom, Tucson clothier who takes pride not only in selling clothes but in knowing when clothes fit, noticed that one of the alleged executives wore an Ill- fitting coat. In a joshing vein, he wrote the Met. Whereupon J. E. D.

Benedict, advertising manager, replied, the substance of which follows: "We endeavor to make our illustrations as realistic and as natural as possible. The fact that one gentleman's coat is somewhat wrinkled in the back, while it may indicate poor fitting, would not therefore take it out of the realm of reality. Probably there are more poor-fitting coats than well-fitting ones, though I am free to admit that if the wrinkles had been noticed we would have smoothed them out somewhat. The photographic retoucher cannot open and re-sew a seam or use a hot iron, but he can dp wonderful things with a little paint. "Thank you for your friendly comment which will perhaps save us from another similar Bloom read the letter and agreed that, unfortunately, "probably there are more poor-fitting coats than well-fitting ones."

Beal of the First Baptist church will preside. He leaves, besides his daughter, a step-son, A. P. Brown. Mr.

Libbey was born in 1840. He was a contractor. The Chummiest BANK BILL WAR Filibuster Ends, But It Is Still Paradoxically Continuing WASHINGTON, Jan. 20. The senate thought it had crippled Huey Long's filibuster against the Class bank bill, but tonight the opponents of the measure were as strongly entrenched and determined as ever.

Thomas of Oklahoma, an ally of the self-styled Kingrflsh, let lt be known he would use every means at his command to prevent a vote on Hie bill. Only cloture can stop him, he said. Untamed by last night's talk with President-elect Roosevelt, Long today renewed his fight against the bill and his continued revolt against his party's leadership In the senate. He tried to gain time by asking that the senate recess until Monday, observing that "seven or eight senators have gone to Muscle Shoals" with Mr. Roosevelt.

"I don't think they'll miss anything tomorrow," Senator Glass author of the bill In dispute, retorted. A. recess was taken until tomorrow noon, and Glass announced he would insist on night sessions next week ir an effort to hasten a final vote. Thus the senate slid back Into the rut of Inaction In which the filibuster had trapped lt for eight days, and found tlie voluntary agreement of debate, reached yesterday, after a move for cloture had failed, was virtually meaningless. Under this arrangement debate has been restricted to one hour for each senator on the bill itself and a half-hour on each amendment.

A check-up revealed that 63 amendments were pending. Thus with only four senators participating in the filibuster, the senate could be tied up for weeks, even if no additional amendments are proposed, and the possible number of these is almost without limit. Encouraged by Long's report that Mr. Roosevelt is against the bill's state-wide branch banking clause, the opponents used every conceivable blocking maneuver today to force lt out of the way so other business could be taken up. Senator Thomas' statement followed a remark by Long that "proponents ot the bill" were delaying a decision by refusing to "accept the proposition of President-elect Roosevelt for county wide branch banking." Senator Nye N.

opposing the branch bank clause, said some day "Uncle Sam Is going to wake up to the fact that fhe.se banking monopolies have unloaded on him millions of dollars of what many people will consider worthless securities." He contended that in setting up a regional agricultural credit corporation In the northwest recently, the northwestern chain banks "dictated the appointment of the men who would have the power to pass on applications" of farmers for loans in SO per cent of the cases. Senator Wheeler Mont.) also assailed the branch banking clause, and criticized leaders on both sides for "failing to put forth constructive legislation to bring us out of the depression." "The congress of the United States offers one of the mist pitiable spectacles ever witnessed," he asserted.
