CHICAGO, August 15.-Memories
of the familiar air mail route between
Chicago and st. Louis filled Col.
Charles A. Lindbergh today as he re-
sumed his aerial tour of the States.
After two days in Chicago, the fly
er's schedule called for him to depart
for st. Louis by way of Springfield,
travelling virtually the same route he
flew so many times with his cargo of
air mail. 1t was while flying this
route that twice he was forced to
make parachute jumps after aban-
doning his plane during fOgs.
Col Lindbergh underwent a physi-
cal examination while in Chicago, but
aside from being very tired he was
found to be still fit for flying. He
spent Sunday resting.
On the remainder Of his tour his re-
ceptions will be limited to four and a
half hours in order to conserve his
strength.
