Il certainly couldn't land and have the
Mayor Of the city rush up to present me to
all those people and step out like September

The air still was terribly rough, but I did
the only thing l could do. / crcled the air

porters were curious about my strange antics

ADV GODIvA won an historic dispute
with her husband about 1000 years ago
a~~ by getting a horse and riding naked
through the streets OF her native city
Coventry.
Though Mrs. Bernadine Lewis King is
sometimes called The Flying Lady Godiva,"
she has not resorted to any such picturesque
method Of winning the dispute she is currently
carrying on with her husband, Martin Daniel
king III, a wealthy business man of Los
Angeles.
She has not said:
Martin. IL you will let me have separa-
ton, $1,000 a month alimony and 100000 of
community property, I will get in my
airplane and do a Lady Godiva through the
skies"
II she had, he might have replied
My dear Bernadine, you have already
done Lady Godva through the skies. so why
should give you anything for doing it
again."
In so saying he would have been speaking
no more than the truth
For. as Mrs. King has herself confessed
she used to love 10 zoom along in her airplane
a couple of miles above the earth clad in
nothing but her birthday suit
She got a big kick out of IT, and a won
derful sun tan Moreover the chance Of being
observed by Peeping Tom-whch was the
chief hazard OF Lady Godivas rido-was slim
Mrs. Kings shakespeare nudsm had it's
own peculiar hazards, however, as she dis
covered 10 her sorrow.
Once for example, stretch OF bumpy air
above landing field took up so much of her
attention that all she had time TO slip into
before coming down was pair Of pants.
Another time the crankshaft Of her motor
broke while she was whsling through the
clouds above Utah. Had she been clothed at
the moment she might have brought her plane
safely TO land.
AS it was, stripped, she devoted as much
energy and thought TO getting back into her
flying togs as TO her major predicament The
result was a crack-up.
Possibly 1t was comfort later on. in the
hospital to reflect that when the rescue party
pulled her out she was fully clothed though
neither in her right mind nor wholly but
toned up.
In any case, because OF these experiences,
or because she was afraid her husband
wouldn't be impressed or even because the
thought never occurred to her, she is not
trying to Godiva her way out of her present
dispute with Mr.. King.
She is doing the conventional thing this
time by asking the Los Angeles court for her

his rapture to eleven letters.
He couldn't He wanted to spread IL all
over the heavens, paragraph by paragraph.
After good deal of debate they hit on the
Morse code as a solution He composed his
letter, sent his sweetheart the key through
the mail together with a suggestion that she
lift her gaze to the sky at such and such
time. and then from separate windows they
both watched Mrs. King caper through the
clouds, leaving behind her his burning mes
sage in symbols of red smoke
Either because she was flattered or be-
cause she feared that her sutton would find
some even more conspicuous method of de-
claring his passion, the girl gave in and the
two were married
Mrs. Kings flying had less happy effect
on her own domestic life. She saws her hus-
band was jealous of her skill not only in her
plane which at one time, she alleges he
considered naming correspondent in a divorce
suit also in hunting, fishing and the
other outdoor activities which both enjoyed
Matters grew rapidly worse after her
crack-up in Utah. When doctors shook their
heads over her chances of living she declares
that she signed over to her husband all
interest in their community property, includ-
ing ranch and home worth 100000 to
eliminate tangled litigation in case of death
When, after recovery that was a near
miracle, she preached the matter of getting
the property restored to her name she saws
there was bitter scene
The original Lady Godiva's dispute with
her husband the Saxon Earl Leofric was also
about money, though not hers She wanted
him to reduce the taxes on his impoverished
subjects When he remained skeptical of her
humanitarian feelings, she undertook to prove
them by taking her famous ride.
Deeply affected, the townsfolk with one
exception refrained from looking at her. The
exception has gone down in history under the
name Of Peeping Tom. He peeped through a
hole in a shutter and was promptly struck
blind for doing So
Far from displaying herself. Mrs. King
says she ended the argument with her hus-
band by walking out Of their home on
cutches penniless, and going to live by her
self IN tiny little room where none OF her
friends would be likely TO notice her plight
After months of solitary drudgery, which
included scrubbng floors for a living and
soing her own shoes, she says she finally
brought her suit for separate maintenance
