SQUALLS AT SEA
HOLD UP FLYERS
Baron Ready to Brave
Weather, but German
r Pilots Oppose Him.
By th* Associated Prc«*.
DUBLIN. April 9. —A brief period of
favorable flying weather gavs place to
day to squalls and hailstorms over the
Atlantic and held the German plane
Bremen at Baldonnel nirdome.
The monoplane's prospective flight to
Mitchel Field. N Y . resolved itself into
a battle between the weather and the
wits of Capt. Hermann Koehl and Col.
James FiUmaurice. pilots
Baron von Huenfeld. sponsor of the
flight, threw science to the winds and
announced he was ready to start despite
pales, rain. hail, ice or any other ele
ment In the officers' mess at Baldon
nel last night he said dramatically:
* It would be better to fly and perish
than to appear afraid to start."
We shall wait until wo get good
weather," Capt. Koehl rejoined quietly.
Col Fitmiaurice took the same view.
The latest weather reports were far
from encouraging There was a low ;
pressure area off Iceland, roughly, ex
tenduig to midatiantic and slowly mov
in' eastward It may pass within 48 j
hours, but there was another low pres
sure area following it from near New
foundland. „ , „
Squalls and hailstorms prevailed all
the way out to midatiantic. A north- j
caster w*as blowing at 40 miles an hour
Rt the surface knd 80 miles an hour at
a height of 2.000 feet.
It was figured tliat a 20-mile wind
would be the most that the Bremen.
could buck all the way out to midat
iantic and still make sufficient mileage
on its fuel capacity to bring it to land
on the western shore of the ocean.

Two Brown Hyenas Arrive at Zoo;
Only Ones of Kind in Tin's Country
Two brown hyenas from South Africa
arrived at the National Zoological Park
yesterday.
These creatures, which constitute a
distinct species, are among the rarest
of mammals. The two now in Wash
ington are the only ones of their kind
in America. There are only four in
captivity in the world, the other two
being in the Municipal Zoo at Berlin.
There was one at the National Zoo
logical Park about 10 years ago. which
died a few days after its arrival. These
animals are the handsomest of the
hyena family and are distinguished by
prominent manes.

COPENHAGEN..—Norway has laid up
about 400.000 tons of shipping. It is
perhaps harder hit than other European
nations by a sea-going freight slump.
At a recent wedding in London the
bride had 15 attendants, all in fancy
dress.
TTTTC EVENING ST AK WASHINGTON TV. tt, MONDAY, ATOTC 3, 1928.
Zoo is being augmented considerably
this Spring by births among the ani
mals, according to Dr. William M.
Mann, director. The latest arrivals arc
an Indian Swamp deer and a hog deer,
both of them tropical animals which
live outdoors the year around in Wash
ington.
