Sister Irene. pretty and 23, also was a little worried. but not about the flight. The pilots complained about the food she provides for them and she was striving to pro- eide more "honest-to- goodness yictuals on the menu.
 We want less fancy food and more hard-boiled eggs, hot dogs and things like that" said a note signed by Kenneth, who is just 21. We're tired of duck and chicken. By the way, send up my ukulele."
 The pilots spent more than us- ual out on the perilously narrow "catwalk" on the side of the plane yesterday, tightening the mechanism and inspecting the struts, wires and mountings. From the ground they appeared to be giving the motor a careful going over.
 Wilson Herren, manager of thc flight, announced he would not or der the plane to land.
 T think the pilots know their own capacity and the capacity of the plane" he said.
 Although kenneth's request for his ukulele might be taken 10 indi- cate the pilots are enjoying the flight, it was known they are work ing under a terrific strain.
 For more than three weeks they have been cooped up in the tiny oil- ho of the motor has left them tempor- arily deaf
 Storms Buffet Plane
 Storms have buffeted the plane and the pilots have been forced to guard against ever recurring me- chanical trouble. They sleep in three hour stretches on narrow bed hinged to the wall and must rouse their fatigued flying senses eight or nine times a day to send the plane through the delicate maneuvers nec- essarV in refueling and food con- tacts with the auxiliary ship, Big Ben.
 Walter and Albert Hunter. who handle the refueling plane. were confident the City Of Chicago will remain aloft until Friday. Albert who started the family up in the flying business and who manages their fortunes, said they were unde- cided about what to do when the present flight ends.
 "Of course, we'll keep on flying" he said, but we aren't going 10 be racketecrs on the name we have made here. Signing endorsements we don't believe in and things like that are out"
 Mrs. Hunter thought a visit to Sparta, III. their old home town. would be nice. The boys earned enough money in the coal mines near Sparta 10 purchase their first plane which they used for transforming at county fairs.
 Earn S5 0OO Per Day
 The City of Chicago and it's pilots had earned nearly s5.000 today from the s100 offered by an oil con- pany for every hour the plane re- mained aloft past the 40 hour rec  ord established by Dale Jacobson and Forrest O'Brion in the St. Louis Robin q year ago. Tf they stay up until Friday they will have earned more than $13.onO from that source
