Morard, Jr., of Oak Park into more doggone trouble than hes ever seen in his whole previous life. Back in 1930, a bunch of boys in high school at Lakewood, Ohio, got interested in gliders. Among them was Oliver Morard, whom the lads called Bud. That crowd not only got interested in gliders, but they designed and built one, and then learned to fly the doggone thing. They came to be known as the Lakewood Glider club. We flew the glider for almost a year, says Bud Morard, without experiencing a single mishap. We thought we were so good that, when the 1931 National Air Races came to the Clevei land airport, we persuaded the management to let us eeme down I and demonstrate our ability to the early patrons. Weil, sir, the air races came along and the Lakewood Glider club got ready for the exhibition. The morning of September 1 was the time picked. It was a clear day, but the air was heavy and a gusty twenty- wind was blowing. Several speed planes were circling the I pylons, tuning up for the big races. mile-un-ho- Bud Won the Chance to Ely All photos from Sox foto. Now on an equal basis with their sisters throughout Russia, these collective farm women are among the numberless Soviet residents participating in the epochal, gigantic election. By JOSEPH W. LaBINE COMMUNISTIC Russia is trying to be democratic. But may fail for want of pencils! This month an estimated 100,000,000 voters are balh the worlds land loting in a country that covers area. They will select representatives for village, regional, province, area and Supreme Soviets. Most of them are voting for the first time. one-sixt- Angry threats are heard against the Timber Commissariat for allegedly trying to wreck the election. The pencil shortage could have been avoided through proper use of Russia's forest resources. Likewise, a serious paper shortage (for ballots) is blamed on the same bureau. While school childrerl use slates in the emergency, every Soviet agency but the Timber Commissariat is apparently straining to make the election succeed. And why this great effort? Russias most democratic election will probably cause Nicolai Lenin, father of Bolshevism, to turn in his grave. It is the perfect antithesis brand of of the specially-flavoreMarxian doctrine on which Lenin founded Soviet Russia 20 years ago. The Bolshevist goal then was world revolution and abolition of democracies. Mass suffrage was scorned. Election Is Defense Measure. is a diThe apparent about-fac- e rect result of pressure from Germany, Italy and Japan. Russia fears war. She must build an adequate national defense and this cannot be done under policies of class distinction and restricted suffrage. Every man must be made to feel Russias future is his own future. The new era of government is encouraging this attitude, forsaking the revolutionary flag in favor of a healthy defensive diplomacy. The momentous election falls under privileges inaugurated with the The new Stalinist constitution. ballot is granted all men and women aged eighteen or more, irrespective of their race, religious profession, trade and class extraction. Criminals and lunatics are barred. Unlike most democratic nations Russia gives the vote to soldiers d c and his associates have safeguarded themselves against an vote. Press, radio and movies are under the governments thumb and only one party- - the Communist is permitted. Hence any organized opposition to Communist candidates will die in its youth. Since minutes of community nominating niectipgs must be signed by town officials, no mfnor authorities will endanger themselves by permitting the selection of candidates. Religion Enters Politics. Moreover, Moscow has avoided religious interference in the election by interpreting the Stalinist constitution as it saw fit. Article 56 of the election law granted the nominating right to all legally registered societies. Among these are 30,000 religious communities which recently saw hope for their cause in nominating and electing Sympathetic candidates. Just as their influence cambecame felt in paigning, Public Prosecutor Andrei Vishinsky denied religious societies It is perthe nominating right. fectly true that they are legally reghe explained, istered societies, but they do not exist In the interRussia's ests of the Soviet cause. democratic election is obviously tempered to suit the governments interests. Despite the rijcclun of church groups as nominating bodies, thousands of village pr.ests will play important roles on the election day. The recent purge which brought new Soviet administrators to the small towns is playing into the hands of religious bodies. These men are strangers. Not knowing what local cand.d..us are sympathetic to the Common, st cause, they will ask the priest's pinion, since in most villages t' e priest is a leading citi. n. Tiius will the priest gain administration support for the nominee favoring 1. s interests! fascism from ail sides. In defense there cannot be class hatred. Russia discovered that once before when the hated Czarist regime found its subjects unwilling to play. Still Experimenting. Thus today Russia employs methods little different from those of capitalism, so far as the average man or woman is concerned. An employee of Soviet Steel enjoys about the same status as a worker for United States Steel. The puzzle of this spiawhng nation is farther complicated when we realize that its methods are also similar to those of fascism. Twenty years after the revolution, Russia is apparently still in tne experimental stage. What, then, is the force that has transformed her from medieval feudalism toTwentieth century modernity in a scant 20 years? That very tude of 200 feet, and the car was still towing it, when suddenly a plane came cutting in between the pylons, directly in Buds path of flight. The pilot saw Buds glider just In lime and swerved In front of him, hut the wash from his propelior and the rough air stirred up by the swerving plane, caused the glider to yaw from right to left. That yawing rould he corrected by using the rudder, and Bud did just that. But something was wrong with the rudder mechanism Bud found out later that it was a faulty hinge and instead of turning, the rudder jammed the elevators. Meanwhile, Bud was enjoying the ride, blissfully unaware that his steering gear was practically useless. Thought Warning Shouts Were Cheers. The December eleetion is probably contrary to ideals of the late Nicolai Lenin, "father" of Soviet Russia. transformation is the most startling fact about this startling nation.

The grandstand, even at that early hour, was rapidly filling with spectators. The glider exhibit was about ready, and the boys matched coins to see who would fly the machine first. And Bud Morard won the toss. Well, you know how those gliders operate. You hook one to a ear with a long cable and the car hauls it up into the air just as if it were a kite. After it is in the air, the air currents and the operators skill do the rest. Some of those lads can make a glider stay in the air for hours on end without any motor or anything else but wind currents to propel the ship. They hooked the glider to the tow car. Bud got in, and they were off. The car started and the glider rose gently.

There was a big pylon on my left, he says, and on my right, the grandstand, now almost filled with people. Down below me I saw the And thinking fellows in the tow car, waving and yelling frantically. that they were just etieering me on, I waved back. I couldn't hear what they were shouting, but everything seemed to be all right. But suddenly the ship began to vibrate and went into a sharp dive. I knew something was wrong then knew that I had to do something within the next few seconds. Immediately 1 detached the tow cable and pulled the joy stick back to correct the dive. A quick workout with the controls told me that the ailerons were the only things that were functioning. Bud was nearing tlie ground rapidly, and there didnt seem to be much he could do about it. He had no paraeliulc. Gliders beldom go high enough to make their use practical. I had to slick with the ship, he says, and at the same time I knew I wouldnt have to stiik with it very long. I was about e Idly feet from the ground now, and diving fast at a angle. I knew I couldnt avoid crashing. My one idea now was to make that crash as gentle as possible. I moved the stick back into the pit of my stomach a position that would make the left wing hit first and absorb some of the shock. I would liuld that position until the last second. Then Id push the stick forward to prevent its goring me when I hit. Tlie ground was only a few feet away now. I poshed the stick forward, covned my face with my left arm, relaxed and hoped for the best. sixty-degre- Did a Good Job of Crashing. And for a young fellow who had only a few seconds to do his thinking in, Bud certainly did a good job of it. He was ail set for the crash now. and he didn't have to wait more than a fraction of a second before it came. "The thud of the impact lasted only a moment, he says. My knees seemed to be where my arms should be and my head and body didnt have the least Idea where they were. Wbat happened next came too fast for me to recoid, but I found myself fully ten feet in the air again, clear of the ship and coming down fast. I pulled in my neck, put out my arms, and did a tumble followed by some classy sprawling, landing twenty feet from tlie glider, which was now a heap of junk. I got up arid tried to walk toward the ship, but at the first step I took I fell over on my side with a numb feeling in my left leg. And when they got Bud off the field und into a hospital, they put him right under ether. He had a bad compound fracture cf the left leg and it looked as if they might have to take his left foot off. But witnesses state that Bud was more worried about busting up the clubs ghler than he was about losing a foot, and I'm glad to announce that vs lion Bud came out of the ether, his foot was still with him.
