Will Smash BullxheaA.
Tomorrow morning, early, we are
going to smash that rear hulkhead.
Then I am going to crawl back through

With sharp knife I am going to slit
the fabric on the top Of the fuselage.
Through the aperture I am going to
thrust my head and shoulders and
stand up, with my arms free. The rush
Of the air will hamper my movements.

work.
The brace Is really o steel strut, about
quarter OF an inch thick, an inch
wide and about feet long. One end
is bent into q hook and the point of
the hook is sharpened. Below the
point Of the hook a hole has been

in the shaft Of the strut opposite the
hole in the hook. At the end Of the
shaft is another hole larger than either
Of the two.
The hook OF this strut will pull
through the fabric of the stabiIzer. so
as to hook thu OUTSIDE tubing which Is
just on the other side of an interior
steel brace. f.

Then III put bolt through the two
holes and screw the bolt tightly in

the fabric. made by the point Of the
strut, will not matter
With q heavy pair of pliers will
draw the end of the broken brace
through the big hole in the end Of the
shaft of the new strut as taut as can,
then lash it permanently and securely.
OF course. I realize that I cannot
hope to make the new brace as rigid as
I'd Like to have 1t, but r think I can
draw 1t as faulty as is necessary to hold
the stabilizer firmly, at least firmly
enough to last through the remaining
time necessary to break the endurance
record.

The ship was crippled today when
stream-lined cable brace on the right
side of the stahiliZer parted We don't
know what caused the brace to give
way. but we do know how were going to

If bad weather should overtake us it
is almost certain we woaald have to land.

remaining 10 days 1t will require to set

As write, am sitting on small
stool almost exactly amidship. Merle A.
Moltrup, my flying partner, is at the
controls. His seat is On the left side Of
the plane, in the nose of the fuselage.
Exactly to his right, the stabihzer
control comes up through the floor. The
lever is damned forward as far as 1t
will go and is set there. This freezes
the top surface of the stabilizer against
the bottom strut of the vertical fin, to
which the rudder Is fixed.
With the StabiliZer in this position
the ship Is slightly nose-heaVy. We are
compelled to pull back on the fiippefs,
or elevators, constantly as we ny, to
keep US on a perfectly level keel.
AS I write I am looking at the rear
bulkhead of the cabin. This bulkhead
is back of the hatch that opens at the
top and through which Moltrup receives

When the new brace Is in place, ]
will draw back into the fuSelage.
With q curved needle, I'll sew up the
slit in the fabric. Then I'll get back
into the cabin through the rear bulk
head. After that I'll repair the bulk
head and we will continue on our way
piling up the time it will take to pass
the present endurance record of 40
hours, 81 minutes and 9 seconds.
OF course, II this plan doesn't work.
we'll have to work out some other
method. But we think 1t will work.

There are too many ''don'ts" be-

according to Gunnar H. BERG. assist
ant director OF the educational de-
partment of the national Boy Scout
council. who spoke to tho members
Of the Lions club today.
Speaking Of the individualism of
= boy who takes his knife and
whites Z piece out OF the mahog-
any library table. he said: IF that's
all he has to do. that's what he'll
do" He advised giving the boy some
activity to keep him from doing
damage. The woodshed session II
not approved by the scout oftieiai.
who says 1T IL more effective to let
the boy split the boards than to
split the boards on the boy.
"A boy is brutally frank because
he hasn't learned to lie like his ell
ders," the visitors stated.
Mr.. Berg described ~ '"The great
est nincompoop and ignoramus in
the history Of child Psychology. the
inventor Of the phrase = child
should be seen but not heard"
He severely hayed tho people
who 20 around the world saying
you must not do that or you must
do this and said they arc just re-
pressing people. You don't want
your boy to grow up to be . molly
coddte. Some people never ny
well done except when they arc
ordering beefsteak in = restaurant.
TOO many programs for boys aud
girls are drawn in sheltered cloisters
of learning and handed to them on =
silver platter. No wonder they won't
accept them. They don't want you
to build their characterA
when q woman says to her boy
don't you want to be mothers little
lamb?' she IL desecrating the psych-
ology Of childhood. There isn't any
boy who want to be mothers little
lamb. He'll be mothers little tiger.
or wolf, or elephant. or maybe
Lindbergh. but he won't b any
