Flights, Flyers

P: Air travel drew a step closer to rail travel when Mr. & Mrs. D. J. Sullivan in St. Paul, Minn., bought a ticket for Rochester, Minn., climbed into a plane, enjoyed the scenery for an hour, inquired about landing time. "Rochester!" exclaimed the one addressed. "Why you're on the plane for Chicago."

P: The ship-to-shore mail plane catapulted from the liner lie de France, flown by Naval Lieut. Louis Demougeot, forced down at sea, was rescued by the British trawler Children's Friend. Temporarily the ship-shore service has been discontinued.

P: A marine pilot, Capt. Howard, flying over Nicaragua involuntarily came to earth near La Luz mine on the east coast. His pontoon dug into the earth, ploughed a furrow. Corporal George Cole left to guard the plane, whiled away the time by panning out $100 worth of gold from a vein thus exposed.
