81. declined to give her name, but
said she was girl friend of the man.

plates in the car. Mrs Consolvo said

ties in Berryville Jail. officers found q

ing resemblance to Mrs. Consolvo, a

bile license number and make of car
were recorded, and also description Of
her colored chauffeur.
Authorities said they intended to
f1ngerprint the couple for Depart
ment of Justice reference. Meanwhile,
they will be held for thorough inves-
tigation. officers said Mrs. ConSolvo

we're cheered tonight with word from
the weather man that favorable soar
ing winds should arrive tomorrow to
permit first attempts for new soaring
records.
Seven days of idleness, with occa-
sional stunt soaring to break the
monotony, has been the fare of the
motorless ship pilots since their ar
rival for the meet over week ago
Only one flight of any duration has
been made.
Col. Henry L. Roosevelt, Assistant
Secretary of the Navy, and Rear Ad-
miral Ernest j. King. chief of the
Naval Bureau of Aeronautics, visited
the soaring site today and inspected
numerous ships.
Col. Roosevelt expressed amazement
at the maneuverab bility of a motorless
ship after seeing Pilot Richard Ran
dolph of Akron, Ohio. stunt his craft
from 5,000-foot altitude. Randolph
had been towed aloft behind an air
plane.
With Admiral King he sought out
Randolph after the demonstration,
congratulated him and asked numer-
oues questions regarding soaring.
