Swiss Hiker Shot i
Near Columbia
i. Columbia, May 20.?After spending!
(three days in the woods with a load h
or shot from u shotgun in his let;
because he was afraid to. show him- 1
self, Korirad Hofner, 30, a native of
[Basel, Switzerland, crawled to a pub* i
lie road this morning and was picked
up by county officers. He wus suf- i
fering mainly from exposure and lack (
jof food.,...
Hofner could not sfteak English <
and it was some time before officers ,i
learned details of the shooting and
his reason for remaining secluded.' i
He said ho hud been run into the ,
woods by negroes armed with a shotgun
and sticks when he asked for i
food and was unable to make himself
underjit<8od,_ When he omerged again 1
and asked for food, two white men,
he said, shot him When they thought
he was attempting to insult their
wives.
Finully, unable to stand the pain
in his leg the gnawing pangs of
hunger any longer, he crawled to the
road. Officers had been searching
toy tjie man several days. People in
the neighborhood had reported that
a "wild man" hud been roaming in
the section for the last few days.
A Swede, brought in to attempt
to understand Hbfner, failed. A German
had no more success. Finally an
American of French parentage was
able to understand Hofner's Germandialect
Swiss.
f Through the interpreter Hofner
told of having worked for about a
year and a half with'his countrymen
on u New York state farm. He was
attempting to reach Lakeland, Fla.,
where he believed employment awaited
him. He reached Columbia and
took the wrong road from the city.
Without funds, hitch-hiking was his
only means of travel.
Hofner was taken to a hospital for
treatment and rest. ? Doctors said
there was little signs of infection in
the leg, from which . more than a
dozen small shot we?e. taken.
Motor Boat Races at Copway
.Conway, May 20.?In connection
with exercises sponsored by the
American Legion, the Conway Motor
Boat 'Club is fostering a regatta to
be held on Kingston Lake in the
town of Conway, beginning at 3:30
on the afternoon of Thursday, May
30th. A regatta was held on the,
same date last year and resulted in
attracting a very large crowd to the
Horry capital.
Advance information is to the effect
that professional racers from
Wilmington, Columbia, Orangeburg,
Charleston and other points will pit
their craft against each other in a
series of thrilling races. Those who
have witnessed motor boat races will
bear testimony to the enthusiasm
which they arouse.
The races will be under the general
supervision of Dr. J. C. Gasque of
Columbia, an official of the American
Outboard Motor Association, who has
wide, experience in staging similar
events.
;
that we were, although it pust shows
you. can't plan to do anything and be-sure
of doing itj This upsets all my
plans but I am going to stick by the
.-ship.
"No one ran around on the ship
as you have often seen pictured in
the excitemeYit of such a moment. I
really did not see any signs of worry
or danger. No one told me we were
in trouble, but I admit I did not enjoy
the ship's bumping much. Dr.
Eckener was wonderful and aided the
entire qrew. * . "You
ask if I didn't have moments
of emotion and miss several heart
beats. I assure you it may sound as
if I am not normal, but I never felt
anything. As a matter of fact, you'll
have to'"Admit that there never was
ahy danger as long as we stayed in
the pir. It would have co'me if we
had been forced "cldwn e 1 sewhere than
at the airdrome."
Mrs, Pierce smiled during the in-'
terview just as she smiled when she
came down the ladder frbm thd ZepSelin
yesterday. There was no effort
y the crew and passengers to hide
their pride in her undaunted spirt.
?Mrs. Pierce lent a true feminine
touch to the Zeppelin's landing after
her adventurous voyage by stopping
in the cabin long enough to use a
lipstick and arrange a protruding
curl. She was assisted to the ladder
by a German passenger, who sought j
to compliment her on her "very nice
bravery/' It caused her to laugh
happily." Her first thought after
landing was for food and she ate a
heavy beefsteak dinner.
Ectaener received the United Press "
correspondent inside the Zeppelin
cabinet. He still showed signs off
fatigue*and was shy, but he could not
restrain a smile of satisfaction.
JtWe had a most difficult-woyage,"
he said. "There was more material
difficulties than I ever experienced I
ori^ a single flight before and which
prevented us from crossing the Atlantic.
"I shall always owe a debt
of gratitude to the French for landing
. us safely. It was surprised at
the efficiency of the ground crew,
inexperiencea in such delicate maneuvers,
which are entirely-different
from anything else in aviation, an act .
always accomplished with risk, 'even
with a trained crew. We can't say
where we will go neat, but the exn?wi
