CROcODlLES FOE,
AFTER GERMANS
Irish Aviator, Shot Down IN

Adventures.
THREE DAYS IN The JUNGLE
Escapes From q Lion by Climbing q
Tree-Three Of His Ribs Broken
When Machine Is Brought
Down.

LOnGiOn.-TaleS OF adventure from
the jungles Of South Africa, where
General Smuts is operating against
the Germans, are not uncommon, but
it Is seldom that the wild events en-
countered by Capt. A. I. O'Brien OF
the Royal Flying corps. told here. have
been equaled.
The details OF his adventures were
contained In letter from his wife to
relatives in England and have Just be-
come public. It is probable that
OBrien will be decorated for his serv-
ices to the British government and In
recognition of his hardness In SURVIVE
ing an ordeal that would have meant
death to the average soldier.
He reported to General Smuts last
Aprfl far down In German Africa be-
low Konnoa Irangi. His work MS an
aerial scout ahead of the British
troops operating against the Germans
won him fame. Flying over the jun
giles and tangled brush country during
the rainy season is difficult. When an
army of vigilant enemies is added. the
task becomes more than dangerous.
The intrepid Irishman finally eneaged
on the losing side Of an argument with
enemy anti-aircraft guns.

when German guns located him One
of his wings collapsed and the mnchine

trees both driver and. machine would
have been smashed to bits. AS 1t was.
three Of O'Rrien's ribs were crushed
and for several hours he lay In
swamp unconscious.
Slowly he recovered his senses and
took an inventory Of his injuries. He
could walk without difficulty, but when
he swung his arms, the broken ribs
hurt cruelty. Holding his arms tight
to his sides, he secuted through the
neighboring jungles. where hesNiscov-
