Lucky Fliers

The very exclusive Caterpillar
Club, which started in 1919
with only two members, has
passed the 500 mark in mem
bership. The only way you can
get into the Caterpillar Club is
to fall out of an airplane with
out joining the angels. 1t is
made up of young fellows,
mostly, who have jumped from
burning or disabled planes and
have come floating down to
earth buoyed by the silken life
preserver of the air, the para
chute. The tiny silken strands
of the caterpillar silk, with some
help from Lady Luck, inducts
them on the spot into the
oldest organization in the
world.
Col. Charles A. Lindbergh is
not only the most distinguished
member of the Caterpillar Club,
but it's luckiest. He's the only
fourth-degree member, the only
one of the lot who has saved
himself four times by leaping
with a parachute from a fall
ing plane.
The first time was back in
1925, when Indy was a cadet
in the Army Air Corps flying
school at Kelly Field, Texas,
only a little more than seven
years ago. Three months later,
when he was an air lieutenant,
he made his second leap for
life. Twice in the next year,
1926, he had the thrill of jerk
ing the rip-cord and seeing the
good earth come humping up to
meet him. But not for six
years has the Colonel had to
jump for his life, even though
he flew the Atlantic and rode
the sky lanes of two continents.
Major Jimmy Doolittle is a
second degree member, with
two jumps to his credit. He
made the first in 1929 and the
second only last year, when he
was only few hundred feet
above the ground. The club,
started with two members in
1919, has grown rapidly along
with the development of avia-
ton.

enough to make the Big Eel

enough to know when he's

he's sick. He's quite smart
enough to know when his child
is starving to death; to realize
when his wife is dying for lack
of adequate medical attention.

They Call It Love"

Climbing" ''is nothing more or
less than sex tied up in pretty
ribbons"
This quaint, old postwar
sentiment has been so out
moded that you'd scarcely ex-
pect to meet it again in an
otherwis entertaining and
sophisticated book. We really
thought that "sex-appeal" had
gone to join jazz, knee-length
skirts, Flaming youth" and the
rest of the dear departed.
But, while that theory reigned
it certainly did a lot Of dam
age and was the primary cause
of most of the half-witted mar
riages and cocktail romances,
which ended on the rocks in
Reno.
OF course, sentiment and
pressed flowers, are away back
in the class with balbrigganS
and red flannel petticoats. And,
if one is inclined to become
romantic under the influence
of moonight-and-music, one
blushingly hides that emotion
away, like an old pair Of high
button shoes.
But, if love were merely
sex-attraction "tied up in
pretty ribbons" the average
man would be "in love" with
every pretty woman he meets.
And a bareback evening gown
would lead every girl straight
to the altar.
There is as vast difference
between love and Sex-attrac-
ton as there is between the
tree and the blossoms. The
blossoms may fall. but the tree
still stands. Sex-attraction al
ways dies, sooner or later-but
LOVE NEVER DIES.

the infatuation and romance

dead for years and years. I've

REPORTS ON HITLER TALK
Suvich Discusses Results Of Conference
With Mussolini.

ROME, December 10 R.-Fulvio ST.
Vlch, undersecretary for foreign affairs,
reported today to his chief, Benito Mus
sollni. premier and minister of foreign
ariairs. on his recent talks with Chan
cellor Hitler of Germany, in Berlin.
However. the official disclosure of the
result OF his Berlin visit was withheld
pending further and more detailed
report to be given later. perhaps tonight.
There was an intense interest in the
report expressed by sources most con-
cerned with the international situation,
as 1t was thought Suvich's findings
might be the keystone for II Duce's
next move in the disarmament situa-
ton.
Much pessimism was noted in diplo-
matte quarters. but the belief was held
that If. as has been reported. Ger
many expressed to Italy her willingness
to attend four-power meeting with
out the offer of a concession, the
chances for the success of such a meet
ing were sufficient to warrant its con-
vocation.
The local press was silent on Suvich's
trip but was filled with assertions that
the Disarmament Conference at Geneva
was doomed unless the powers should
establish a new basis for contacts
through a preliminary meeting.
