u. S. Lifts Order
On "JalOpy"

With a lilt of Irish laughter,
Douglas "Gone Again" Corrigan
bade farewell to washington to-
day to fly back to New York and
the venerable 5000 aerial, jalopy
which carried him over the At
lantic.
All the world seemed bright and
gay to the amazing young Irish
man as he left the Capital which
had laid its heart at his feet yes
Iterday because the Bureaus Of Air
Commerce had lifted the bounds
which held his beloved plane to
the ground.
Starts Saturday
He plans to tour the country
for a month, the unpredictable
Corrigan said before he took off
from Washington Airport at 11:40
a. M, but where he will fly and
when is a mystery. The tour will
start from New York Saturday, he
revealed, however.
Corrigan's infectious grin reached
Its hroadest expanse when he
lemeraed from the Office of Den.
Inis Mulligan, director ssf the Bu-
lFeau Of Air Commerce, and proudly
declared that the order grounding
Ibis old plane had been rescinded.
Order Withdrawn
Air Commerce officials said the
order was withdrawn after Corri-
gan volunteered to remove the
three auxiliary gasoline tanks
from their position in the front
windows of the ship.
| A crowd Of approximately 500
persons was at the airport to bid
farewell to the young flier and he
was surrounded by autograph
seekers as he walked to his plane.
| No "Cr0n1p"
After he signed his name at
least 100 times a policeman asked
II he was not getting writer's
cramp. but Corrigan grinned and
said:
''No, indeed. Bring 'em on"
Envy Of every woman at the
airport was beautiful Marguerite
Keyes, blonde American Airlines
hostess. She was the only girl in
the plane with him when it took
off.
