-*j-t L tr THURSDAY. JUNE 23RD, 1932. THE BARNWELL PEOPLE-SENTINEL, BARNWELL, SOUTH CAROLINA FAX}* n STOWAWAY ENJOYS SIGHTS OF LONDON Very Simple the Way La Raviere Tells It. London.—Strict as immigration offi cials and steamship officers are, it is still possible to cross the Atlantic as a stowaway, eat two square meals daily for seven days while mingling with the passengers and' crew, and then enter -Great Britain without so much as a question- from the authori ties. Raymond La Raviere, twenty-eight, who says he lived at lH.TJ Marquette road, Chicago, did It. Travelers who have experienced the thordughness of the European investigations of foreign ers at ports and frontiers, plus the usual ticket and passport inspections of stewards and others aboard ship, . merely go through formalities in no way essential. La Raviere proved it. He boarded* the Olympic - in New York 15 hours before The vessel soiled, made himself comfortable,‘traveled to Southampton, landed, tramped to Lon don, and was going for a walk with two newly-found girl friends in Drury Lane some time later before the police called him to account. Then he was fined $10 or given one month in Worm wood Scrubs prison for the offense of entering England illegally. Set th« Sights. Afterwards he restored himself to the trust of the officials and spent a month doing the tower, houses of pag- (lament, Westminster abbey, Kevv gar dens. and other points of interest La Raviere was even given u police registration card such ns all Ameri cans and other foreigners who stay in England any length of time must hnve. # • It all sounds easy as he explains it. He walked up th> Olympic gang plank, ston'd his. luggage in the crew's quarters, and went for u Walk. He came hack at eight, got his bag. and picked out an unoccupied third-class ' stateroom. Mattresses and other uYi- used bedding were stored, !• the room, and out of these he huilt a screen to shield himself fnun the door. Then he made his ^<-1 Itehiml and turned in for the night. When l.e woke up next morning he urus at sea. - lat Raviere stayed iu Ms statenstai until evening, when lie grew hungry. So he .changed his clot lies and went on deck. Then he learned tiiat the night crew was atiout to l*e fed. so he dashed hack and got into his sea man’s clothing In time to follow* the . crew In to siipi*er> lie liel|>ed him* «4f and nobody asked tiny questions. He made this quick change tw i«e a day for seven days. He ate lunch with the day crew and at night he fed with a different watch. Noltody suspected. The rest of the time he lolled In deck chairs and mingled with ' the passengers. Id! Kuviere meant to debark at (’her- fcourg, hut found this Impossible be cause of -the landing ‘‘ard necessary to hoitril the tender. So he went on to Southampton and was unlucky enough to arrive there In mjd-after- noon. He saw two ga.iaplnnks taken aboard, one fog the. passengers an 1 the other for the crew, who Immedi ately began unloading laundry. Then he did his quick change for the last time. He left his bag behind to avoid customs officers and walked off the ship with the crew. On to London. He was unable to get out of the dock jnrds at Southampton because the only exit Is through a gate in a high steel wire fence and this is guard ed by immigration officers. But he waited until dark and then Jumped the fence, the last hurdle of his crossing taken. Then he walked to London, a fraction less titan 80 miles away. He confessed to a policeman guard ing the door of an American organiza tion In London that he entered as a stowaway without a passport. This policeman. I^a Raviere claims, refused to arrest him then, but when he saw him on the following day strolling with two pretty English girls he put him under arrest and took him to the im migration office in Bow street He was cbnvicted of entering the country illegally and on the same day they took' him to Wormwood Scrubs, a prison on the outskirts of London. There he says his treatment was of the best After his sentence was finished La Raviere was sent automatically to Brlxton prison to aw-ait deportation. He 'appealed to the home office for release and to twMsh off his experi ences he was allowed his freedom in the name of Sir Herbert Samuel, home secretary. Throughout his difficulties American consular officials were anx ious to help him, but. they could do nothing without proof of his Ameri can citizenship. This he could not supply without a passport, and it was necessary to write to Chicago for his birth certificate. New Yorker Owns Goose That Lays 11-Inch Egg Reii Yan, N.

Pic tured above are two of the very lateet styles in bathing suits which suggest that coats of tan will be more extensive this summer. And. In these modern days, of coarse, while enjoying the sunshine between swims, both men and women bath ers will be reacting for cigarettes and inhsling the toasted smokes that are vp kind to their throats as Ikeee 1932 bathing su^ta kre to the eye*. The modern garments how ever are not only ornamental. Fashion experts say that the 1932 bathing suits are designed with an For example. Miss Dorothy Shaver, vice president of Lord and Taylor, one of New York's greatest depart ment stores, and an acknowledged authority on styles, says. “The mod ern woman wants to swim when she goes to the beach and she can't do much swimming if she is burdened with ysrds and yards of doth. The 1932 suits, therefore, are swimming suits. The new strap back design illustrates this. Solid colors will be popular this year, ae usual, although the new suits offer many striking color combinations.” Just as soon as the weather geta a little warmer, the new styles In swimming suits will be making their appearance on sun-kissed beaches from the Atlantic to the Padflc and it looks as if It would be an in eye to utility as well as to beauty, j terestlng summer. CULINARY TRIBUTES TO GEORGE WASftUSfGTON i a os T HIS year al celebration in honor of Washington brings to mind the cherry tree story so familiar to every American school child. So that cherry recipes might almost seem to be an essential part of any patriotic celebration In 1932. Fortunately we need not be patriotic at the expense of enjoyment, for the cherry is one of the most delicious and refreshing fruits. And still more fortunately, cherries lose little if any of their deliciousness in canning. The deep red of these cherry dishes will lend a festive note to your table. They are amply nourishing, tempting to the appetite and yet their cost is in harmony with the economy we are all practicing nowadays.

Acting upon this theory, the psychologist has begun a scrips of experiments with babies who are less than 15 minutes old. and expects to begin educating cliil-' dren when they are still ip the crib. ' A stabiiimeter,' attached to the child’s crib in a cabinet in the University hospital.' obtains r? a perfect record of the child’s ev ery movement. The breath ffig also is recorded. These records ora supplemented by pictures taken with .high-speed cameras. Doctor Irwin believes that the scientific studies will enable cfail- dren to be taught self-feeding, walking and talking at a very early age.
