The apparatus used by Delmore and
Lee in their sensational aerial novel
ty In the Miles this week, is one OF
the most Intricate devices ever en-
ployed in such an act. Ii is the in
vention of George Delmore, one of the
team, and he was IL years in building
It. Just how the ladder-like affair
operates is something of a mystery.
Necessarily. In a performance OF this
kind, the element Of danger is great.
Realizing this, Messrs. Delmore and
Lee personally superintend the In
stallation OF the apparatus, and In
spect IL before each show 10 make
sure that il Is in perfect working
order Thanks to their vigilance, they
have never met with a serious acci-
dent. They never use a net.
