 Both flyers embraced the aged

 her blessing and said she was go-
 ing to pray to God to bring them good fortune" She presented them with bits of ribbon brought from a pilgrimage which she once made 10

 Hopes High, Barometer Low
 The hopes of the airmen were high although the barometer was low. They went against the advice of the French weather service but were confident in word from America that they would run into good con- ditlons on that side of the Atlantic.
 Due New York saturday
 The flyers expected to land at New York Saturday afternoon after flight of from $500 to 4,Oo0 miles, depending on the route followed A strong northeasterly breeze waited them on their course which led southwest over the Azores.
 The plane passed over Dreux, about 50 miles from Le Bourget at 6:3s a. m. It was flying westward at a height of l,5UO feet and at good speed.
 The airmen circled widely around the Paris suburbs and signalled to eecorting planes that all was going well. The Polish plane seemed to be flying smoothly and powerfully.
 Bad Weather Ahead
 After the airmen hoped off later weather reports Were receivd. While they were not too favorable they offered at least more chances of sue cess than any conditions which pre- vailed recently. French airmen agreed that the Poles had made their start under much more favor able auspices than the previous two attempts to fly from Paris to New York-the ill-fated flight of Nun gesser and Coli and the attempt of Givon and Corbu. who turned back after flying 90 miles.
 "NitcheNo" was the last word Idzikowski spoke to friends. This Russian expression, equivalent to 'Well, what of it." seemed to sum up the attitude of the fliers toward their hazardous adventure, they took no radio and their only precaution for safety was collapsible rubber boat which. they said, probably would prove useless if they crashed.
 First Into Plane
 Idzlkowski, wearing leather coat over street clothes. climbed into the plane first. He took the pilots seat. kubala in light dungarees took the navigators post behind. One slight incident delayed the start when an oil reservoir filled too full and over flowed, drenching the pilots seat Six mechanics rapidly sponged off the big plane as if it were race horse before great test.
 When the start was made the aviators were ready to give their utmost but they realized success was in the laps of the gods. Kubala was cool and practical to the last minute ldzikowski. who had the task of talk ing off with an eight ton Sesui- plane with a single $50 horsepower motor was very white in the face as he pulled down his goggles and hunched over the controls.

 Idzikowski. however, threw him. self into the work and brought the biplane off in q masterly fashion, apearing to just miss the roofs of the military hangars
 ''Formidable," exclaimed Captain i Cartier in charge of the military camp.
 The take off was so swift that M. Amict the builder of the plane. was astounded and threw his hands, crying:
 "He must be crazy. He will crash" Plane Gets Off But the Poles did not crash and scared away and in two minutes were lost to sight. Behind they left red fire engine and an ambulance shortest run ever seen at Le Bourget for such type of plane.
 The Polish plane was escorted by five planes. One carried NJ. Carol, i chief engineer of the Lorraine fac tory which built the engine, the | others were a military escort com- | manded by Major Pineford and as- signed to stay with the airmen until they were safely out to sea. \ The airmen had not oyerburdened | themselves with provisions.

They were doubtful about the utility , of the champagne but We're finally persuaded that it might serve as d | restorative and 50 decided to take it along.

 They headed westward for Lorient on the coast and they intended to go to the Azores. Without stoppine there the tllers expected to curve northWard toward Halifax or they might head straight for New York. The flight by way of Halifax would be about 4,o00 miles and it would be about $500 miles direct to New York.

 The cruising radius of the plane is about 5000 miles. The tiers ex- pect to maintain an average speed Of 90 miles an hour.

As the load gets lighter the speed will be in- creased proportionately. Their max lmum speed is 11o miles an hour.
 The Poles had fuel for more than two full days and nights of flying. They expected to drop down in New York on Saturday about dusk. They thought the trip would take from 4o to 42 hours but were sure they could stay in the air for 56 hours if necessary.

 The fliers spent their last evening in France tuning up their plane. When they went to their hotel at 10 o'clock Idzikowski found that his wash had just been returned from the laundry. He threw the package in the corner without even checking the bill. T don't need clean shirts as soon as all that, he said.
 Slept on Their Arms
 Both airmen slept on their arms like ancient knights before a battle. Their leather suits and helmets were spread on the foot of their beds and kubala gathered together all maps. charts and his own com- pass alongside.

 The original F'lapper Fanny, of course, is the sweet young thing pie tured at the right, who appears in this paper every day. But she has a namesake almost as famous-the barred rock hen at the left. This "E'lapper Fanny" who believes in wearing the same clothes year in and year out, and cares not whit for new spring styles. is the unofficial ezg-laying champion of the country.
 Fanny began to lay an egg a day on Dec. 6, 1926, according to Pat rick Fitzgerald, who owns her. And every day thereafter, until Jan. 19. 1928. she kept up the pace With the aid of trapnests, Fitzgerald says he was able 10 keep an accurate check of her accomplishments.
