FATHER COX'S ARMY REACHES CAPITAL TO PETITION CONGRESS
(86)
WASHINGTON, D.C. -- Followed by a host of idle, 10,000 strong, the Rev. James R. Cox, of Pittsburgh, presents the demands of the "hunger caravan" to the Federal Government. In Capitol Plaza extra police guards are ordered out as a precautionary measure but the demonstration is peaceful with the marchers concentrating entirely on rations of sauerkraut and frankfurters. After a tedious rain-soaked trek from Pennsylvania, wet but not discouraged, they stand behind their religious leader and urge the solons to action. A $5,000,000,000 bond issue to carry on government building works is asked for jobless relief.

NEW YORK, N. Y. -- The first meet of the year attracts 136 entries for the Atlantic Cat Club competition. The contenders rank from the Siamese Royal breed and fluffy Persians to ex-alley cats. Rosedear, Dresden Cotton Tom, Sir Boss of Khiva, and Yum Yum strut their stuff and prove to spectators and judges that they deserve to be called "aristo-cats," in a great exhibit, the proceeds of which go to the fund for unemployed.

NEWARK, N. J. -- Joie Ray, one-time world's greatest middle-distance cinderpath star, turns to the goofy gallop for the dollars he may win. Teamed with Alice Krug, of St. Albans, New York, he has trudged around Dreamland Park pavilion floor since October 22. And the once great amateur speed king is just as chesty as he was in the palmiest days of his career. Necessity drove him to such competition as this, and, he declares, he can't eat the trophies his track activities brought him.

WATSONVILLE, Cal. -- Homes are deserted by hundreds of residents as the rising Pajaro River threatens to break over the levees and engulf the entire community. The heaviest rainfall in nearly a score of years causes the rushing stream to inundate the whole business section of this city, and leaving in the flood's wake irreparable damage to orchards and rich farm land.
While in another part of the state, at Truckee, the whole countryside is snowed under by a raging blizzard, whose ferocity is beyond the recollection of the oldest inhabitant.
DARING PILOT RISKS NECK ACHIEVING NEW AQUAPLANE THRILLER

ORLANDO, Fla. -- Mounting a glider on pontoons, Fred Jones takes off from Lake Conway, as Bud Jones riding an aquaplane under the motorless flying ship, swings from his conveyance to the landing gear of the plane. Where the slightest miss may mean a fatality, the two daredevils perform with nicety and precision in a hazardous stunt designed to stir the blood of a mummy.
