which killed Lieut.. George Cuddihy,
famous Navy racing and test pilot, at
Anacostia nearly two years ago. Cud-
dihy was diving British single-seater

\ He was unable to get clear Of the ship

power dive, the ship in its terrific plunge
carving his body into the ground.
Not long afterward James Collins.

death when a wing was torn of in the
same maneuver which killed Cuddihy
and Richie.
Collins was struck on the head by

momentarily dazed. He had to fight
his way clear of the wreckage of a por-
ton of the wing before he could climb
out and open his parachute. He drop

Diving tests are q part of the ac-

planes and are performed regularly
at Anacostia Naval Air Station by test
pilots of the various companies demon
strating new planes and by Navy pilots
in determining characteristics Of the
ships.
New Navy combat tactics call for
bombing attacks involving vertical dives

bombs being released just as the Yhips
are pulled out Of the dive. The ma
newer is regarded as necessary to
escape the effects Of anti-aircraft de-
tense fire from enemy ships and the
NAVY for two years has made persistent
efforts to obtain planes capable of with
standing the enormous strains Of such
maneuvers.

NEITHER heat, nor humidity, nor the
stalking shadow of depression can
dim the great blaze that hangs over
Broadway these days. The beld-headed
row is back! And that means that Zieg-
field and the "Follies" are in town
and that. plus about three other the
atric reasons. means that all's right
with the world.
Much has been written about the
new "Follies" and nothing at all about
the fact that it boasts along with it
an institution which has been its CO.
partner since birth. Summer-furiouSly
hottie sidewalks with that give
my" feeling-the wife gone to the coun-
try-the club a horrid spot Of ill-tem-

1.-The 'Follies'? Hmm-well, I'm pref
ty old for that sort of thing-sure!'
And so the "Follies cat the club, priced
at $3.50 a seat.
On a hot night of last week eight
bald heads were diScernible at the or
chestra pits edge. Behind these were
seven more, three canes, four ladies
with white hair, monocle, a lorgn-
cite and single ear trumpet. The two
front rows were filled long before the
curtain went up. Over some of the
faces were sheepish expressions, over
over still others long, slow smile, which
grew and grew during the entertain
ment.
Mr.. Ziegfeld has not disappointed
this institution. The bald-headed row
at the first flicker of the performance
was seen leaning forward in anticipa-
ton. Before him or her (the white
haired ladies RECALLED themselves with
the sight of the 16 singing Lotharios
who chung to the right and left sides of
the stage) were 80 Of the handsomest
feminines in existence. Helen of Troy,
Cleopatra even, would have been wash
out among them. Not one of them hadn't
come straight from some sort of Gar
den of Eden. A third more than the
usual Ziegfeld quota, they positively
filled the mammoth stage with their
sveltnesS, etc. The bald-headed gents
nodded to each other and sank back in
mute satisfaction. Although cognizant
of more feathers and beads than have
graced "FollieS" before, although less
