Attend: Burial at Good Morning: For That Hungry Feeling Try CACTUS the ZR-2 recently chafed over the decision of General Maitland not to permit the giant aircraft to leave Howden until sailing conditions were perfect.

Maitland was criticized more or less for what was considered over-cautlousnees. Like the ZR-U, the R-34 ended her career In disaster. She was cut in two by a violent wind and left a wreck outside her airdrome near Edinburgh in January, 1921. This vessel hud had a thrilling experience on her trans-Atlantic flight, and the collapse of the U-31 would seem to have afforded General Maitland some justification for his hesitancy in sending the Americans across seas with the ZR-2 in the face of meteorological odds. The crew of the ZR-2 selected to take her across tne Atlantic to the Evergreen tWo iropresnlve services, ono at 8 OF C.

One member of the rescuing party said that when they got alongside the burning airship the pilot of the tug asked for volunteers to board one part that still was almost intact. Jumping upon the wreckage, the rescuers ripped open part of the fabric, while parts of the debris were pulled away by means of ropes.

The task was a hazardous one because one of the balloonettes still was filled with gas and another explosion was feared. Among the wreckage an American naval man wxs to be seen hanging by his coat to a girder in the frame of tile airship. It was believed he was dead, owing to the peculiar position of the body, which was not recovered. Another rescuer said one was hanging to the tail of the ship, apparently uninjured, while another was found floating in the water. KoiK of them were saved.

While the rescuers were at work the balloon began to turn over and the rescue party had to return to the tug. Smoke Bursts Forth When first seen from Hull, the ZR-2 was approaching the city, coming from a southeasterly direction over the Ilumber. When sailing on ing with sound business and educational principles. Representing as he did in his own professional and business relationships, some of the largest business interests of the southwest and consequently the largest taxpayers of the state, he never hesitated to declare that that territorial division that could not generously support its university had no right to be a stale and that state which did not provide largely for higher learning among its citizenship dil not deserve an institution of high rank. "With this conception of the duty and the opportunity of the state in connection with the University, ha gave unstintingly of time and strength to the direction of the affairs of the University.

At no time was he too busy or too weary to counsel with Its officers and to labor in its cause. The slate of Arizona will always remain a heavy debtor to the devotion of Chancellor Randolph in behalf of Its educational interests."

ZR-2 closely resembled her sister ship, the R-34, which sailed across tho Atlantic in July, 1919, although she was 41 feet longer and seven feet greater in diameter. Her' gasoline capacity also was greater and she had a cruising radius of (1,000 miles, in contrast with 4,900 miles credited to the R-34.

It had been estimated that the ZR-2 would be able to cross the 3,200 miles to the American continent In from three to four days, whereas the R-34 bad occupied nearly five days in her voyage.
