sional jealousy; but there exists con-
siderable criticism when a pilot sets
out to do a stunt that will either
make him or break him. The only
thing the pilots have had to say that
might be termed critical refers to the
manner of Lindbergh's departure.
Rain all night had made the run
way at Roosevelt Field a soggy mess
and the experts-there were plenty of
them on hand-looked at the runway
and then Lindbergh as he decided to
start.
This was daring of sort that they
who were accustomed to daring had
rarely seen before. Alone of all the
persons who watched, flying men
knew that if he could not get up
enough speed at the end of that run
way he was through-his heavily
laden plane would pile up into kin
ding wood and possibly catch fire.
Imagine aiming your motor car at a
brick wall and then setting out toward
it at SO miles an hour, trusting to luck
that the building would disappear and
leave n clear road ahead just before
you hit it. This, was what Lindbergh
actually did. In this case the build
ing was the solid earth off which he
hoped momentarily at intervals as he
sped down the runway to lurch with
sickening icthargy back into the muck
as it held his wheels from making
the necessary speed required to get
off and away.
But was it luck? Lindbergh says
not. He says he knew what his en-
CINE would do for him-that Wright
engine which is making all other
weight bearing motors here or abroad
look like relics of another age. / be-
lieVe Iindbergh when he states With
out qualification that he knew what
he was doing at every moment of his
fight. ! can see only one case of pure
buck in his flight. He did not have
hurricane, or a cyclone. or a typho0n.
or a waterspout to knock him out of
the air over the Atlantic. The rest
was air sense, partly inherited and
partly developed. For the most part
it was developed in the air mail
service. Lindbergh as an air mai,
pilot is one of about a hundred who
are the greatest long distance cross
country night and day aYiators in the
world.
DEW people appreciate what air
l. mail pilots have been doing for
America in the last nine years Some
OF 1nem are veterans OF the war,
others, like Lindbergh, had to pick it
up after the war. First, however,
Lindbergh, played around airplanes
sufficiently to acquire some knowledge
of flying. Having no money and with
the feeling for aviation that has made
him notable, he could not afford
to buy his way into training at first;
so he took the greatest risk of all.
He became a parachute jumper and
jumped from planes piloted by others,
lust to give the people thrill.
Now, one may be thrilled by watch
ing "a chute descend, but it is the
thrill of anticipation, watching and
waiting to see something happen to
that chute and it's harnessed bit of

DANCE AND SONG RECITAL.

An unusually entertaining program
of songs and dances was presented
last night in Barker Hall of the new
Y. w. c. A. Building before an in
terested audience. under the auspices
Of Nine. Marie Zalipsky, assisted by
Nine. VassiIieff. All the numbers were
given in costume and the dramatic eff
fects obtained were very good and
seemed to lack so-called "amateurish-
ness"
In the opening number, 1.-THE
Angels Serenade," by Braga. Stella
Arseneau as the daughter and Lillian
Feldman as the mother did well, both
dramatically and vocally, and DR..
Alicia Simon's violin obbligato was ex-
cellent.
Salvatore Carta. a young italian
| singer, was very good in the famous
| aria, "M'appari," from Martha" but
he was more at east dramatically later
| in the program when he sang Banjo
Song" well.
The enunciation of the next two Sc
| lections in French, given by Gertrude
| Borzi and Agnes Brady, seemed ad-
mirable and one of the most charm
| ing, numbers of the evening was the
Beethoven "Minuet," as danced and
sung by Katherine Hertzberg, soprano,
and Yasha HeifetZ, baritone. The
WOrQS set 10 tIe HolOuy were III Eng

Nathan Bachrach's big, mellow voice
was very effective in Schumann's
1.-TWO Grenadiers" and also his en-.
core, 1.-THE Song of Volga Boatmen."
Pauline Grossberg, coloratura, showed
good work in the difficult BELL Song"
from "Lakme," with Mr.. Heifetz, ef-
fective in the role of the father, doing
good dramatic work. Mrs. Hertzberg
sang the air, ''Vissi d'Arte," from La
Tosca," with good phrasing and color
ing. Her encore was "Deep in My
Heart" The last group of negro songs
was very well done. with the hum
ming in parts of the different num-
bers artistically handled.
The dance numbers gave variety and
added life to the program. Tania
Gnoocheff was charming in her Rus
sian dance with vocal obbligato by Mr..
HeifetZ, and she also was q quaint
