Sensitive Britishers
Refuse Bargain Prices
LONDON —Uf) — Some bald-
headed Britishers are so sensitive
they even turn down bargain prices
currently being offered by Lon
don's barbers.
The barbers, figuring there’s not
quite so much wiork to trimming
a fringed noggin, have been quietly
knocking sixpence (seven cents)
off the bill if the customer’s head
is bare on top. A regular hair
cut costs two shillings (28 cents).
One-men’s hairdresser in the
f financial district disclosed that
some of the more vain baldpatea
: have ’’indignantly insisted upon
paying the full price.”

Briefly Speaking
Bathing Suits Trends Hint
Barely of Things to Come
Pierre explained in a recent inter
view,
: ‘Me take a spool of thread,
cast upon our noble but naughty r ^|. a p e eet thees way, that way.
BY W. C- COLVILLE
Since the fig-leaf curse was first
ancestors, women have been trying
to clothe themselves as nudely
as possible and still appear re
spectable, or cjothe themselves re
spectively and still appear nude.
Each year Women’s bathing suits
have receded and shrunk like pools
of water on hot pavement. Last
year, with the advent of the French
style and Bikini suit, it seemed as
if the end w^s almost in Sight.
At any rate, it was apparent.
This gives rise to the question
of just how far they will go, a
question that can only be intelli
gently discussed during the numb
ing winter mtjnths, when the ab
sence of those Warm forms at swim
ming pools permits a somewhat
passive point i>f view. During the
summer, as the old adage goes, you
can’t see the tjathing suits for the
limbs, or soipething like that.
L. Pierre, njoted French design
er, is rumored to have conceited
a suit for the (coming summer that
can be carried [on a spool of thread.

Pierre’s more conservative Amer
ican model consists of two paper
clips and an additional spool for
a beach robe.
L. Peirre is also creator of the
ecoaomical Decade Suit, a cro
cheted affair that can be unrav
eled as the styles progress. Pierre
was offered a cool million by TU
Frats for the extract position of
the key thread. Pierre declined
saying that his honor would not
permit such an act.
“Hell no!" was the way he put it

from the modem bathing suit for
awhile, and briefly delve into their
histoi(y. ,
The first bona fide bathing suit
was worn by Guinivere Goatherde,
first Wife of King Authur. It was
a two piece creation consisting of
short* and (you’ll pardon the ex-
preseion) bra, constructed of cast
iron.
Guinivere, after a short but
glorious jac&nife into the moat,
was never aeard from again.
The lotal minstrel has it that
Authur was piqued at her for
insisting an square tables in
the castle, and had his tins-
smith jam the escape hatch.
The next mode established was
the knee-length skirt suit, origin
ally designed to frighten little
children into going to bed at night.
This suit is sound evidence for the
suspicion that bustles, frills, lace
and fluff was all that Grandma
had.
After 'tho knee-length burlap
went out, things started looking
up, and we come again to the ques
tion . . . just how far will they
go . . . and why don’t they.

Observers Tell Of Tragic Air Crash
HY WILLIAM C. BARNARD
Dallas, Nov. 30 —(Ah—“The plane
trembled and shook and I knew we
were in reu) trouble and then
bango—”
That was the! description Ernest
Ohnell, Jr., Sfarsdale, N. Y., gave
to the American Airlines crash
which killed 28 persons here to
day. Ohnell was one of 17 sur
vivors.. — !
He said he escaped through an
emergency door] seconds after the
plane exploded. Ornell was not in
jured, ibut was suffering consid
erably from shock.
He gave this description of what
happened:
“Tike ptaAVas in good shape
when it left New York and
Washington,” he said. ^Twenty
minutes before the accident we
were cruising along very comfort-
* b, y- : : I- ,
“Thdn passengers were alerted
that something was wrong with
the number four outboard engine
and that we would change planes
at Dallas for the trip to Mexico

but | we really weren’t Suddenly
the plane trembled and shook. The
engines roared as though the pilot
were trying to take it off again and
had decided not to land, r*
“I felt we were in trouble.
Then bango—we hit
“We hit a hangar (Dallas
Aviation School) and then there
was the explosion. I waa sitting
in the back end of the plane.
“There was terrific confusion. I
finaiiy got my seat belt unfastened.
It had held. I looked around at the
emergency door and a man was
opening it. He went out and then
two other people went out, and so
did I.
“Flumes were billowing up from
the right wing on the other side
of the plane. Just as I got through
another man came through the door
and got stuck in it. I pulled him
out.
“I don’t know how many of the
people who got out that door were
hurt. I guess all of them were.
“When I got out the door and
got the other man through the
door, I stepped out on the wing-
I ran down the wing and jumped
off to the ground. Then I ran
to a residence nearby and tele
phoned my wife In Scarsdale to
tell her that I waa all right”
Ohnell has made a complete
statement to the Civil Aeronautics
authorities. He said he feels very
weak but his nerves are smoothing
out a bit. He said he will never
forget that moment of the explo
sion—the fire coming up outside his
window and the agony of trying to
unfasten that seat belt to free
himself.
“I feel more than thankful,” he
told reporters. “Much more than
thankful.’’
He was trembling as ha spoke.
BY TIM FARKKR
Dallas, Nov. 30 — (Ah—A* each
burdened group staggered by, the
man in blue uniform, weeping un
ashamedly, asked:
"How many?”
Dirt-stained firemen would look
up and say, "one” or ’’two."
The uniformed man was an
American Airline representative
who carried a notebook on which
he was keeping count. Each body
carried by was a short black pen
cilled line in his notebook.
The bodies were laid out on a
canvas tarpaulin under burned and
hanging utility lines. But they had
to be re-arranged as still more vic
tims were hauled out an hour and
a half after the crash.
The rescuers running short of
atretcheirs put the limp remains
above the muddy ground as they
wove back and forth between the
wreckage and tarpaulin.
Flames still licked around the
one-story galvanized building into
which the larger part of the plane
crashed,
There was quick, orderly move
ment—no panic now—as the last
of the bodies was removed while
slater ships of the DC-6 passed
overhead.
Police Sergeant D. J. Cameron,
who arrived at the scene five
minutes after this crash, said:
“There were several people dash
ing around. There waa one woman
ing arou
with a baby. She waa hugging
the baby. She waa crying and
the baby waa crying.”

A cavalcade of ambulances was
admitted on the scene about 7:10
u. m. (CST) to take away the bod
ies piled on the tarpaulins
Only 200 feet away were bar
racks in which 160 GI aviation
students were sleeping.
They apparently were; unaware
of their close escape. On*! in shirt
sleeves at the door asked “What
happened?”
Firemen used grappling hooks
and axes to tear apart the mixture
of plane and buildings. Charred
Airmail was heaped on a tarpaulin
near the bodies.
Highway Patrolman J. W. Gal

hand and was just reporting to
his dispatcher. I ‘
“I saw it happen. I yelled
’419, 419, 419’. That’s the call

Four new water wells for

Wells are to be drilled northeast
and northwest of Bryam Field by
Layne-Texas Wells of Houston. A
50,000 gallon reservoir will be: built
in the field for collection purposes
and to hold water at the pump
station, built to pump water to the
main reservoir at the College.
A 2,000,000 gallon reservoir will
be built at the College at the
distribution plant, he added. v A
high pressure pump station will be
constructed here to pump the water
into the distribution system
Eight miles of water main will
be required to carry the r water
from the Bryan Field reservoir to
the main reservoir at the college.
Exploratory work la being car
