RUTH LAW WAS
LOST IN THE AIR
Odd Experience of Girl Aviator
Who Will Fly Here at Fair
Next Month

Girl flyer lost miles in the air, hid
den in the clouds, Ruth Law dives as
strength begins to flag That is an eX-
perionce the famous girl aviator who
will fly here at the Fair had a short
time ago.
While attempting to make a new
altitude record Ruth Law became lost
in the clouds several thousand feet
above the earth. In her effort to go
higher than anyone had ever gone be-
fore in this country, she became so
chilled by the cold Of the high altitude,
that she realized that she could not
guide her aer0plane much longer Nor
did she know where the strong wind
had drifted her to while she was above
the thick gray clouds. There was only
one thing to do. making the record she
had set ont for was impossible. Her
aching arms and fingers clutching her
steering levers with Il grip she could
not relax, told her that she would have
to get back to earth soon or else lose
control of her machine.
She did the one thing there was to do,
pOinted earthward and dove The
spectators watched and waited, an
hour passed without sign of the
girl aviator. Then someone shouted
''There she is, coming like falling
arrow" a dark object emerged from a
darker cloud. the delicate PROV Of the
plane and the girl sitting in seat far
~
out in front, was pointed toward the
earth almost perpendicularly. The
great crowd watching below gasped,
but in another minute the aircraft was
gliding over the grass and came to a
stop.
They had to life her out of the seat
and as the blood began to circulate she
said with a shudder, Il didn't know
was so cold" Several minutes passed
before she could speak again. She ran
cold water on her hands to take out the
pain from frost and it was some time
before she could answer the multitude
of questions that friends and admirers
wished to ask Ruth Law had made a
new worlds record for women aviators
according to her barograph but she was
disappointed in not having made rec
ord for men aviators too. She will try
again however, possibly while she is
giving exhibitions here. Miss Law
holds many records for air achieve
ments and is a leader in creating new
and sensational air stunts

NEW CAR AWAITED
WITH KEEN INTEREST
WiIlys-0vcrland, 1t Is Reported, Has
Z Solved Problem of Combining Riding
Comfort with Light Weight in
Forthcoming Model

According TO persistent reports go
ing the rounds Of the automobile indus
trv. The WHY'S Overland Company, i'll
building its forthcoming new model,
has successfully solved the problem
of combining riding comfort with light
weight.
To build a motor car light in weight
and embodying quality, economy and
simplicity of. design, yet possessing all
the comfortable riding characteristics
of the larger and heavier vehicles, has
been one of the absorbing aims of the
automobile industry for a number of
years.
The problem of reaching ideal light
weight has been a puzzling one and
was not made possible of solution until
engineering attention centered upon
springs. Light began to dawn when
The Willys-Overland engineers at
tackled the light weight and comfort
problem convinced that a new type OF
spring must be devised. The three
point cantilever spring suspension
was the result and is the basic princi-
nIc in the new car which Overland will
soon offer. This principle admits OF a
short wheel base without which light
weight cannot be achieved and at the
same time gives the new model long
riding or spring base which produces
comfort.
The advantage of light weight CON
struction in motor cars long has been
recognized in the industry For years
metallurgists have devoted their entire
time and energy to perfecting metals
strong and durable enough to withstand
persistent road shocks, yet light III

towards this end as a comparison OF
the cars of today with those OF yesfer'
lday will readily disclose.
