M Defies Bad Weather
Post finally defied the bad

only two hours after arriving
from RukhloVo.
The American airman arrived
at GAS a. m. (7:45 p. m. yester-
day, Washington time) after a
640-mile dash from Rukhlovo, the
outpost where he was forced down
yesterday. He was held there
nearly nine hours.
During this long stay, while
storms ragged along his route and
prevented his taking the air. Post

over the world flight record he
and Harold Gatty made two years
ago.
Rests But Two Hours
But he took off for Alaska,
however, with a comfortable lead
of 80 hours and 16 minutes over
his former flight. This was
accomplished by cutting his rest
period here to two hours, he and
Gatty in 1881 having spent 26
hours and 30 minutes here, and
by having even less delay at
Rukhlovo than he and Gatty had
at Blagoveschensk. a comparable

he is made to suffer for something
that he wasn't to blame. He was a
hero in the World War and he
allows a cheat to take all of his
glory and medals. You see that the
theme is pretty haywire and does
not convince.
I want you to be your own judge,
but as far as I am concerned so
many of these forgotten men stories
are not theater, meaning enter
tainment, even if the acting is as
sincere as that Of Barthelmess.
There is plenty of evidence that
even the director was in doubt heap
ing so much trouble upon the
shoulders of Tom. There just isn't
any sunshine in Toms life. And the
end of Toms career is just too far
fetched for the widest imagination
in the theater.
Some of the revolutionary talk on

is not good theater. The cast is
