The British dirigible R-101 exploded three miles south of here at 2:30 a. m. Sunday, killing 46 of its 53 passengers and crew outright The remaining seven were burned badly and may die Lord Thomson, British air minister, was one of the 11 distinguished passengers. He was killed instantly.

Those rescued were taken promptly to the Beauvais hospital. The R-101 was on a flight to India She took off from Car sington, at 7:37 p. m. Saturday. The flight was a test trip, the first port of call being Ismailia, Egypt where she was due Monday.

The trip was to determine the practicability of a dirU gible passenger line to India. The giant of the air, largest ship in the world, crashed spectacularly in flames. The ship was gliding through the night about 400 feet above a farm near the small village of Alonne, five miles south of I'rauvais. Farmers heard a terrible crash and saw (he flames, liut by the time they reached the field where the dirigible went diiwn, the scorching heat prevented their Koing near the cabin. Beauvais is a city of northern France, about 34 miles southwest of Amiens and SU miles northwest of Faris.

A violent storm had raged from this sector across the channel into England during the afternoon, and it was believed that the ship might have been struck by lightning. The alarm caused by the explosion was immediately spread throughout the peaceful countryside. Tlie authorities of the Prefecture and the Beauvais police, Informed by telephone of the disaster, went to the field. First aid stations were immediately established. The field, with the giant hulk of the ruined airship, offered a horrible sight when the police began dragging out the bodies of passengers, officers and crew.

The K-1U1 is a sister ship to the R-100, which made a trans-Atlantic flight to Canada last spring. Recent alterations made her larger than the K-100. Of tlie 5.1 passengers aboard, five were officers, 37 members of Ihe crew, and the remaining 11 official guests, which probably comprised the most distinguished passenger list ever signed on a dirigible journey. Air Minister Thompson headed the list. Maj.

Zaro Aglia, the 156-year-old Turk, grew red to the tips of his ears here when he was informed Dr. Serxe Voro-noff, gland expert, has offered to perform a monkey gland operation on 1 1 i free of charge. Such an offer, to Zaro's mind, is a prime insult. Back in Turkey, it seems, those are fighting words. And there was no mistaking Zaro's state of mind.

He was virtually red-headed about it.

The injury, according to Betty Ann, was caused from a fall sustained during rehearsal with a group of little friends for a circus, which was to be held in the back yard of the Riggs home. "I was swinging, you see," Betty Ann explained, "and fell right in a baby buggy, but the baby buggy broke, and one of the sides went into my arm. I think that's what caused my arms to be sore." According to attending physicians however, the disease, osteomyelitis, originates from a germ lodged in the bone. However, it was stated, the fall may bave had something to do with hastening the infection. During her hospital confinement, the child underwent, five operations.

Unlike some cases of osteomyelitis, the infection spread to different parts of the body. Twice blood transfusions, a pint of blood altogether, were given tlie ehiid. with Parrish Named Community Chest Drive Chairman M. C. Parrish, head of the University bank, has been named chairman of the 1930 Community Chest campaign, according to a statement Saturday night by T.

Mr. Parrish will meet with directors Wednesday afternoon at 3:30 in the director's room at the Security Trust company to make plans for the campaign. Dates will be set and the budget which the Community Chest will seek to raise will be determined in a study of budgets of the 12 participating blood given by T.

J. Kunz of Thorn-dale, University of Texas student. It is believed, according to doctors, that a third transfusion will not be necessary. "Anyway, the doctors and nurses say I'm a good patient, just because I didn't cry, when I was operated on, I guess." little Bitty Ann said. "It sure did hurt, though," she added.

When it comes to describing her real rendition, Betty Ann is "bearing up" splendidly, and has been loath to reveal the agonizing pain she has undergone, those who realize her serious plight, have noted. Mr. Holloway, Hetty Ami's father, superintendent of tiie identification bureau of tlie Amarillo police department, left Austin several days agb after attending his daughter's bedside, with the assurance that she is making excellent progress toward recovery.
