GsEEATURING the impossible. "
i, That's the motto of the
famous Ruth Laws Flying Circus.
Hanging head downward from a
plane that is itself flying on its
back is but one Of the many thrill
ling stunts performed by Miss Law
and her troupe of daredevil aerial
acrobats. l,
Another breath-taking stunt of these
intrepid aviators is that of hanging by
the feet from the running gear Of plane
high in the air. Louis James does this
seemingly impossible feat. 49,.

raising aerial maneuvers. They are
