Cameron Highlander
Must Wear Underpants
— By Court Order
EASTBOURNE, England, —
For centuries tradition-minded
Scotsmen have worn nothing be
neath their kilts.
But 69-year-old David M. Cum
mings, an old Cameron High
lander, has added an under gar
ment. Here’s why:
Cummings was strolling down
the beach, a proud and handsome
sight in his green and red tartan
kilt, Highland jacket and big bow
tie.
Then the sea breezes became
indiscreet.
The next thing Cummings
knew, he was in court facing an
indecency charge.
“In the Cameron Highlanders,”
Cummings explained to the judge
“we were never allowed to wear
anything under the kilt—even in
the dead of winter. So I’ve never
worn anything under mine.
“But in view of this incident,
I intend to wear something
henceforward. In fact, I’ve got
them on now."
And in view of this assurance,
the judge dismissed the charge.

Shimmy and Shake
Candidate Carries Her
Campaign to New High
SEATTLE, Uf\—Candy Renee, a
burlesque dancer .and Republican
candidate for precinct committee
woman, carried her campaign to
a new high yesterday . . . and

Memorial To Henson,
Co-Discoverer of North
Pole, Is Dropped There
FAIRBANKS, Wl—A memorial
to Matthew A. Henson, a Negro
who accompanied Adm. Robert E.
Peary on his first trip to the
North Pole in 1909, was dropped
at the pole Monday.
The memorial, a steel box con
taining an American flag, a
bronze plaque and a photograph
of Henson was dropped by Herb
ert M. Frisby, a correspondent for
the Afro-American newspapers.
Negroes, Frisby said, regard
Henson as “the co-discoverer of
the north pole.” Henson died last
year at the age of 88.
Adm. Peary, Henson and four
Eskimos reached the north pole
on April 6, 1909, on Peary’s sixth
attempt.
Frisby, flown to the pole in
a 58 th Weather Reconnaisance
B-29, read a prayer before the
memorial plunged to the earth.
On the way back to Fairbanks,
one of the plane’s four engines
ccnked out but the craft reached
its base without incident.
Man’s Wooden Leg
Held Inviolable Against
Search for Evidence
LOS ANGELES —Looking in
a man’s wooden leg to see if he
has been taking bets on the horses
constitutes unreasonable search,
says Municipal Judge Joseph L.
Call.
The judge dismissed a book
making charge against Ralph W.
Pattison, 55, yesterday, holding
that detectives who arrested him
had no reasonable cause to search
his wooden leg.
The arresting officers claimed
they found four betting markers
and $3,233 in cash in Pattison’s
artificial leg.
