DARING FLYER FL|RTS
WITH DEATH At GREAT
Ut MAKES
A SUCCESSFUL DESCENT

Washington, Aug. l2,-Army avia.
tors have long since ceased to get
many thrills out Of routine or even
stunt flying it is said, but an cx.
ception should be made in the case
OF two sergeants who recently set
out t. break the worlds altitude
record for a parachute jump at Ne
Cook field, Dayton, Ohio. according
to an air service announcement. The
men We're Sergeants Strong b. MADAM
and Ralph Bottreil.
The sergeants, without intimatin2
the nature Of their objective took the
air in a lie Pere two-seated plane
with MADAM as the pilot and Bottreil
wearing a standard army parachute
of the double-pack type. After flying
for az hour the plane had reached
an altitude Of 20, 800 feet and Ser
geant Bottreil started to climb out
Of the cockpit to make the jump.
The release ring of his parachute.
however, accidentally caught on the
fuselage of the plane and the para.
chute opened prematurely, dragging
the sergeant out over the tail Of the
machine. Bottreil's arm struck the
rudder Of the plane as he went by,
tearing some ligaments and ripping
off u sleeve of his fur-lined flying
coat. 4 strap Of his harness at the
same time caught the rudder and
tore it from the plane. The parachute
itself was damaged, but opened as
the sergeant cleared the machine
and started his long descent,
Sergeant Bottreil lost considerable
blood from his injured arm during
the drop, but made a safe landing
in a plowed field and received medi.
cal attention in time to prevent any
serious result from his injury.
Meantime, Sergeant MADAM in a
rudderless airplane 2O,GOO feet in the
air, was having troubles of his own.
He finally found u position where he
could maintain a straight flight by
keeping the throttle in a certain po-
sition and fitting the plane with the
ailerons. In this manner ne glided
down to within about 5000 feet Of
earth where he managed to make a
wide turn by Juggling his throttle ana

a Political "Dud"
The PHILADELPHIA North American
last week published au article under
scare headlines setting forth in great
detail its discovery" that the prcsi-
Dental boom for II. G, hrover had
been launched at "dinncs' given by
Colonel f. NJ House on December D..
This dinner" it declared, was at
tended by Ralph Pulitzer, publisher Of
the New York World; Frank Cobb, ed
itor of the New York World; Cleveland
II. Dodge. IA very ricH man, hitherto
a friend of the President" Colonel
House, and Cyrus II. X. Curtis, pub
Usher of the PUBLIC LEDGER.
Following this dinner the North
American pointed out, the Now York
World printed long story TO the ef =
feet that the President and Colonel
House were 'on the outs aud that
therefore Colonel House was seeking
anther candidate than Wilson for the
Presidency. The North American next
made the astounding discovery that
about the middle of December the
PUBLIC LEDGER devoted nearly two
columns of space to exaltiug Mr.. Hoover
without declaring for him for Presi
dent
Having got this far with its mastery
deduction, the North American discov-
cred that its story was Il "dud. 1t
didn't explode, 1t created no sensa e
tion. So in its dilemma it applied to
Mr.. Hearst's New York American.
This newspaper very quickly showed
how to revitalize the "dud." 1t must
not only be Colonel House who wanted
Hoover for President, but it must also
be England! To transform the "dud"
into q real explosive. Hoover must be
a candidate made in England. There
fore the Now York American made the
further damuing discovery" that in
addition to the gentlemen previously
uamed as having been present at the
dinner, which was really not a din O..
nor at all but luncheon, Niscount Ed
ward Grey. British ambassador to the
United States. and the British made
candidate himself, Herbert c. Hoover,
were also present.
Announcing this discovery in heavy
black type, the New York American
pointed out that ''it is rather unusual
to have a British ambassador present
at an occasion at which the boon, for
