Neshanic Disturbed By Noisy Flocks of Stubborn Blackbirds Neshanic, Aug 3 Beautiful trees are Neshanic's pride and Borrow. Green and shady during the hot, sun-lit hours of torrid Summer days; calm, peaceful and majestic in. the quiet twilight, they become a nest of noisome blackbirds during the night. The raucuous visitors make appearance each evening shortly after sunset, wheel about the town and finally settle down in the tree-tops to spend the night. The moulting season adds to the discomfort.

Flurries of black feathers of all sizes are blown over porches and walks and into homes. And many a night's rest is cut short by their noisy preparation for flight. Further, the presistent guests refuse to be insulted. Fireworks are set off under the trees, sky-rockets are directed towards them and guns are fired without avail. Fred Stone Hurt In Plane Crash Groton, Conn, Aug 3 (UP) Fred Stone, musical comedy star, was seriously Injured when his airplane made a forced landing near Trumbull Field today.

Later, it was announced that an operation was performed.

The Polish army flyers, Majors Louis Idzikowski and Casimir Kub-ala, left Le Bourget Field, Paris, at dawn in an attempt to make a non-stop flight to New York. They are flying by way of the Azores. Meanwhile on the steamer Minne-waska, heading for New York, are (Captain Frank Courtney and three aides with whom he started from the Azores yesterday enroute to Newfoundland. The plane went down at mid-sea according to reports from London the ship had caught fire at 1,500 feet and rode the waves for -almost nine hours. 1 Finally after numerous trans-Atlantic vessels had changed their courses to go to the rescue the Min-newaska picked up Courtney and his aides.

Commander Ramon Franco was forced to turn back earlier this week after starting Westwardly across the Atlantic on the first stage of a trans-Atlantic trip. His plane was damaged and was towed back to Cadiz, Spain, this morning. At Horta, Azores, is Lieutenant Paulin Paris who recently started from Brest on a one-stop flight to the United States. His plane was damaged and his projected flight now has been called 6ff by the French Ministry of Marine. Down in South America Captains Arturo Ferrarin and Carlo Del Prete are proceeding from Natal, where they landed after a' flight from Rome, to Rio de Janeiro.

Their plane was damaged in landing and they are making the trip to Rio de Janeiro in a borrowed plane. Earlier this year Baron Gunther von Huenefeld, Captain Hermann Koehl and Major James Fitzmau-rice successfully flew across the Atlantic, Westwardly, from Ireland but were forced down on Greenly Island and were isolated for days before relief arrived. Captain Walter Hinchliffe and the Hon. Elsie Mackay were lost after attempting a non-stop flight from England to the United States. One Eastward crossing was made this year that of Amelia Earhart, Wilmer Stultz and Lou Gordon from Newfoundland to England.

The two flyers, after weeks preparation, left here at 11:41 p. m.

E.S.T. The French fishing ysmack Pinguoin reported that at 2:15 a. E.S.T. it saw a white airplane th Marshal Pilsudski, as the Polish plane was named, is white 55 miles off Lorient, on the French coast. It was too foggy, the ship reported, to make out the plane's markings.

Penmane Radio Station, near Lorient, a little later intercepted a message from an unnamed English steamship, reporting that it saw a white plane heading out over th Bay of Biscay 57 miles southwest of Lorient. There seemed no doubt that both ships saw the Marshal Pilsudski. The plane was heading exactly on the course Idzikowski and Kubala intended to take to the Azores Islands. Weather reports at French meteorological stations were not encouraging. They predicted the fliers would meet fog and drizzling rain all the way to the Azores.

Idzikowski and Kubala are prepared to land at the Azores if they think it advisable; but they hope to make New via Newfoundland, without a stop. So.
