afternoon.
Winslow and Gene Rock, profess

sustained flight record, who with
Rock and Bert White, are here

rience, and fell about 1000 feet be-
fore I pulled the rip cord I waited
until I saw Rock, who followed me,
open his parachute before 1 opened
mine, in order to get out of his way.
L will admit it was sort of a
temptation to yank on that rip cord
when l heard the wind whistling
by me. When I did pull the cord, it
was less than two seconds until
the huge parasol-like chute was
open and had jerked me right side
up.
Then I went through a most de-
lightful experience, floating lazily
and quietly to earth. Rock was about
600 feet from me, but we could con-
verse easily.
In order to test the theory that
