HIGH LIGHTS ON CRUISE

international News Service.)
In mid ocean tall iceberg
suddenly appeared ip the R-34's
path. Fearing the effect of its
chilliness on the sunheated gas
bag, the R-34 tilted her nose
upwards and hurdled the ice
mountain like a jumper leaping
a fence. In the same manner she
hurdled fog banks.
At one period in her flight. the
R-S4 sped through clear atmo-
sphere with a cloud layer above
her and another below.
In Saturday nights battle with
the storm over the Bay Of Fundy
the airship was suddenly tossed
aloft 500 feet by an unexpected
wind blow. Her skeleton frame
work creaked and 1t was feared
she might break In two.
On one occasion rainbows
completely circled the airship.
While fogs cast strange re-
Elections. Lieut.. Potter looked
from his cabin and thought he
saw another man staring at him.
1t was his own reflection in the
fog. Except w, w. Ballintine,
the worlds first aeronautical
stowaWay. who hid himself
aboard the R-34, before she
started, all members Of her crew
slept In hammocks, working four
hour shifts. Cold meats. an oc-
casional steak, pudding, cooked
on the engine exhaust, cold boiled
eggs, hot beef tea and coffee COM
prised the menu. The R-34's Of
fcers denied they had taken
precautions against wartime pro-
hibition in America, declaring
they brought only one bottle of
brandy for medical use and that
1t was not opened.
Jazz Music Amid the Clouds.
A phonograph entertained the
crew with wild jazz music amid
the clouds. Feminine selections,
"to make US feel that a woman
was around" were the favorites,
the crew said.
Every man aboard had plenty
Of exercise, walking up and
down the 6s5-foot shell. One man
complained that he walked his
legs of. Another hardship on
the airship was the fact that they
couldn't smoke because of the
danger Of exploding the hydrogen
gas. Only a tortoise shell cat,
the only live mascot aboard, en-
joyed the trip immensely.
The greatest altitude reached
by the R-34 was 1000 feet.
When she reached Mineola,
after battling with the storm,
she had left less than half an
hours supply of gasoline.
Maj. Pritchard declared that
England is now building dirigi-
bles twice the size of the R-34
and that the R-34 may now be
considered obsolete"
