BALBOA, JAM. .24.-Reports that
Col. Charles A Lindbergh was on
the verge of 4 nervous collapse
were denied today by Col. A. G..
Fisher. at whose home the young
aviator is staying.
Emphasizing that the flying
colonel was in good health as a
result of his recent vacation at
Boquete, in the interior of Panama,
Colonel Fisher said he was, unable
to account for the many reports to
the contrary.
Anyone seeing Colonel Lindbergh,
his guest said, could observe that
his health was not failing.
The general impression. here was
that when Lindbergh arrived IN
Balboa he did appear "shaky," but
that since his vacation he seems
rested. 1t was pointed out that
the breakdown report may have
grown out of the fact that Colonel
Lindbergh took time for vacation.
