Do-It-Yourself Airplanes
Feature Fold-Up Wings
ROCKFORD, 111., lifl—The small
private plane of the future, a pair
of do-it-yourself plane builders
say, must have folding wings if
it is to win a large market.
Leonard and Rita Eaves of Ok
lahoma City, a husband-and-wife
team of hobby enthusiasts ex
pressed that opinion today at the
annual meeting of the Experi
mental Aircraft Assn.
They were among 1,009 home
made plane enthusiasts who at
tended the convention here. 93
conventioneers flew their own
models to the meet.
The Eaveses came in their Cou
gar, a two-place ship with folding
wings. The folding wings, they
said, permit housing of a small
aircraft in a private garage at
home where tinkering can be
done conveniently.
Also, it makes the plane almost
as easy to tow on the highway as
an outboard motorboat on a trail
er, they said.
ELIGIBLE!

Szymankicwicz tried several times
for election as a precinct delegate
to the county political conven
tions.
Now he has made it. He re
ceived the only Republican vote
in the Third Precinct, making him
eligible for the Macomb County
GOP convention.
But Szymankicwicz may not go.
He is a Democrat.

‘Bull of Pampas'
Louis Firpo Dies
In Buenos Aires
BUENOS AIRES, Argentina,
(fP) — Louis Angel Firpo died of
a heart attack Sunday at 65, still
convinced that he won the heavy
weight championship from Jack
Dempsey almost four decades ago.
It was on Sept. 14, 1923 that
Firpo stepped in the ring at the
Polo Grounds to battle Dempsey
tor the title. The fight lasted less
than two rounds but it was one
of the most vicious in history.
Several times in little more than
two minutes, Dempsey knocked
Firpo to the canvas. Then, with
less than a minute left, Firpo
caught Dempsey with a lethal
right to the head.
The champion toppled through
the ring ropes and into the type
writers of reporters covering the
fight. He climbed back into the
ring, covered up for the rest of
the round and came out fighting
again in the second.
Again he caught Firpo and the
Wild Bull of the Pampas, as he
had become known, toppled
twice more. Each time he got up.
Then at the 57-second mark,
Dempsey again connected and
this time Firpo didn’t get up.
The fight established Firpo as
a national hero here. After meet
ing Dempsey, Firpo fought only
twice more in the United States.
He lost both bouts. Then he came
back to Argentina, fought a few
times and quit the ring
He fought only once more —
in 1936 when he took a bout with
Arturo Godoy. Firpo was 42. Go
doy knocked him down seven
times before putting him away
for good in the third round.
“There were four times when
I should have been declared the
champion in the fight with Demp
sey,” Firpo recalled recently.
“Dempsey fouled me three times
and should have been disquali
fied. Once he hit me when I was
getting up and once he hit me
when I was talking to the referee.
He earned about a half million
dollars fighting and invested it in
an automobile agency here when
he retired. Then he expanded his
interests to cattle ranching. He
recently estimated his fortune as
several million dollars
