claiming to see a hand before her

meas taken from a blind man had

of a local anaesthetic.
The astonished physicians drew

You are shaking your hand, ,"
the woman declared.
The physician in charge of the
operation, who insisted that his
name not be used, said tonight that
though Mrs. Bode appeared to see
immediately, it did not prove the
operation a success.

thing except a pair of steel and
fabric wings.
The why is easy enough to an
sWer. It's because of coffee and
cakes. Even a parachute jumper
has to eat from time to time" the
stocky airman quipped.
THE how Is something else
again. Roughly, I leap from an air.
plane at height of several thou
sand feet with my wings strapped
on my back and soar as long as
possible"
The wings are made of steel tub
ing and airplane fabric, with
span of II feet. They are 25 inches
wide, weigh % pounds and are de
signed to lock in proper flying posi-
tion when opened. A cloth webbing
is seWed between ThompSon's legs
and acts as a tail.
'The best I've done 50 far was
Imperial Valley press., 1938-12-01

at Seattle" he declared, when I
circled the airport several times
while losing around 5000 feet alti-
tude. When 1 was still 1000 feet up
l opened my parachute and came
down.
1T is exciting, but not as fright
ening as you might expect. I've
made SO many parachute jumps
that I've lost track and it is hardly
any thrill at all any more to bail
out of a ship
Thompson estimated that while
soaring he travels around 65 miles
an hour. He directs his flight by
moving his body and legs.
"ThiS is only in the experimental
stage as yet he explained Gwen
tually l expect the apparatus to be
perfected sufficiently that soldiers
could be dropped out of planes by
the score and glide to earth with
out parachutes. Skids could be
strapped on the body Tor use in
landing"
He pointed out that soldiers soar
ine away from an airplane make
much more difficult target to
hit than a parachute.
Thompson, ranked among the
first three expert parachute jump
ers in the nation, was in Ell Centro
10 inquire into a possible air circus
during which he would try out his
newest wings. Since the Seattle
flight Improvements have been
made that point toward a much
longer glide.
Thompoons first jump was made
when he was IA, from a plane pilot
ed by Col. Charles Lindbergh before
Llndbergh leaped into fame with
his Atlantic flight. Since then he
has made virtually every type of
leap from doubling for Santa Claus
to winning trophies at the national
air races.
I've landed on water, church
steepleS, train trestles, on tops of
buildings in the center of large
cities, or in the streets. I've landed
on about everything except a cow!"
Thompson chuckled
That was down in Oklahoma
when 1 landed on the church steeple.
They had to get out the town fire
department to get me down! Anoth-
er time l needed the fire depart

Il broke my leg on that railway
trestle, when my foot caught be-

It's really seldom that I have
any trouble. I've landed on at least
half dozen houses and hardly
been scratched. But you do get some
close squeezes. I've drifted past
power lines SO close 1 could reach
