A crowd of 100,000 persons at Venice, Call- fornia, cheered decision of judges who picked Misc Phylls Dobson us "Miss California 1036." She will represent her state in national competition for the title of "Miss America."

November
is learned that the sister ship of the Queen Mary, the keel of which will pro- bably be laid in November or December, is to have a peak speed of 36 knots.
Leading draughtsmen of John Brown and Company are now plotting out the final theoretical designs for "552.”
As soon as they are finished models, but to the paper measurements, will be tried out in the company's experimental tank.
The liner will be about 90,000 tons and at lenst 12 feet longer than the Queen Mary.
·
These stipulations will make her without doubt the largest and fastest liner in the world.
BEST OF BOTH
The best features of both the Queen Mary and the Normandie will be embodied in the new ship. For economie running the Queen Mary beats the Normandie. But the French liner is said to be better streamlined.
The geared turbine system of the Queen Mary has satisfied the experts that it is superior to others, and the same type of engines will be adopted in the sister ship.

THE child-what will it become?
Ceaseless tests by Jolin Brown and Company since the Queen Mary left the Clyde have demon- strated that the turbine system can be perfected to nave about 15 per cent, more ln running costs.
MORE WORKERS
Arrangements have already been made to take on the extra men re- quired for building the ship.
As soon as the decision to lay the keci is made, 2,000 men will be em-
ployed and by the end of next year. when she is expected to be launched, Hu-bit 1000 will be engaged on her

It was the first public execution in the history of Owensboro and brought crowds from, Indiana, linols and Kentucky in all sorts of vehicles. There had been many all-night cele. brations, even children of high school re-age participating in "hanging parties.". Mrs. Florence Thomson, the woman Sheriff, had said that she would through with her official duties re- quiring her to conduct the execution.
