so pleasant, but / soon settled
down, and was able to enjoy a
full view OF the world below.
I had one minute of anxiety.
As 1 floated down, one OF the
Messerschmitts appeared. The
pilot circled around me, and |
was Just a little alarmed. Would
he shoot? Well, he didn't. He
behaved quite well; he waved to
me. and then made off toward

1 could see the people coming
out of their shelters-people
looking up at me. l had de-
scended to about 1000 feet. 1
had began to sway a little. and l
could hear my parachute flap
ping-like the sound OF SAIL
in a small boat.
For the first time since the
enemy pilot circled round me, |

my escapade by being banged
against a seaside villa? 1t did
not seem possible that could
reach the fields beyond. The
journey ended in a cucumber
frame, after 1 had pushed my
self free of a house. with my
foot.

recollection--in spite of my foot
and my painful landing. The
people in that seaside town were
wonderful. A woman appeared
With a cup of tea, in one second.
Then a policeman with a whisky
and soda. l drank the whisky
and soda first-then the tea. A
blanket appeared. then the

A tenth inning tie-breaking
home run last night gave Poca-
tello a 1873 victory over Boise,
but left the Pilots with a mathe-
NAUTICAL chance to tie Salt Lake
for leadership in the Pioneer
league.
Salt Lake dropped the second
game of its series with Twin Falls,
AZ, and failed to increase its
12Aa game league margin. A Bee
victory would have clinched the
pennant for Salt Lake, and estab-
