to the heavy load my ship was carrying.
AS 1 gradually gained speed, the tail
became lighter and the ship moved
easier all the time. At the end of 1000
feet the ship began slowly to leave the
ground. I had to be very cautious and
alert in order to keep the ship in q
perfectly balanced position and not
allow it to deviate until 1t had reached
almost 1000 feet, then could bank 1t
very slightly, enough to make wide
turn and start on my planned course.
Within half an hour, by keeping the
motor full-throttled, reached 1000
feet elevation, which I kept all night.
At the end of two hours, as my load
became slightly lighter, was able to
reduce the motor revolutions from 1000
per minute to 1900, and within four
hours more. 1 throttled down to 1885
revolutions.
Two hours after 7 was in the air the
seat became pretty hard. I pulled out
a rubber cushion which I had in store
for change. It did help some, but it
was not long until I had the feeling
of one who has a real attack of the flu
at the aching stage.
/ had to keep working hard without
shifting my position, because it was
necessary for me constantly to use the
rudder and during very little Of the
time was able to remove my left hand
from the stick. AS the night wore on
the millions of lights from Los Angeles
and vicinity, which gradually came out
after left the ground, made me feel
rather drowsy. At am. was having
a hard time keeping awake.
I started peeling oranges TO eat, which
helped a little, but I soon became
drowSy again. I slipped some hot tea
from my thermos bottle. Between 4
and $50 am. I felt as though each
second was an hour and that I could
not possibly keep my eyes open any
longer.
Then I would think of how terrible
it would be if I proved failure by
going to sleep and having an accident.
The thoughts of my dear ones below
and my friends who had so much faith
in me kept me awake until the eastern
horizon began to grow red and I knew
was coming and it was only
question of a few hours until my little
Golden Eagle had pulled me past new
mark in the history of aviation.
To say was growing tired would be

it gave them quite thrill to see me

At 1926 am. 1 felt very happy, as

to idle my motor down enough for him
to keep up with my plane in order to
get some pictures.
Later I found that every one on the
ground was feeling very sorry for me

I must be almost frozen stiff. Well, I

and staying all night in Modesto when
! received the word that I had lost my
endurance record title to Miss Elinor
Smith of New York.
I was rather glad that it happened SO
soon, because I was very anxious to
make better flight and to really show
the world what small plane could do.
I Immediately telephoned by employer,
r. 0. Bone, that was crazy to make q
new flight at once. He told me that
his mechanic, j. L. Harrison, and w. G.
Mead, test pilot for the company, were
busy preparing my ship then. They
worked almost day and night getting
the plane in first-claSS condition and
installed a special oiling system to the
exhaust rocker arms, which kept me
IN the air and proved very successful.
Everything Ready.
Saturday evening I was put to bed
after a hot shower and a Swedish
massage. I slept very soundIy until 9
O'Clock the following morning, when I
arose, ate light breakfast, rested until
luncheon and went to Mines Field.
When arrived there, Mr. Harrison
and Mr.. Mead were going over every
thing carefully for their final inspec-
ton. I was greeted by hundreds of
aviation enthusiasts and loyal friends.

them every one for their words of en-

Joseph Dunninger. head Of the

that "a third person, possibly the

read the message that a girl reporter

without seeing or touching the en-
