, ! ! ' THE CRASH
npHE wheels grounded at tbo odge
of tbe field and they bumpod to
standstill. Climbing out of the
plane Orabame faced Wlnslow.
"I'll try tho hotel," he Bald. "Take
a look at the ablps on the line, and
see It yon can so. that cabin Job."
"Oke," replied Wlnslow, "... and
Frank: It there's any fancy work to
do, wait tor me, will you?"
The men broke Into 8 trot, Frank
heading toward the edge of the Hold
: where was the path that led to the
. hotel, Wlnslow diagonally toward a
, dark line of planes. Frank noticed
a man appear, walking toward bin
, companion.
The two met In tnldfleld. They
paused a moment. Orabame saw his
companion grasp the arm of the
other, Abo lifted his tree arm and
pointed toward the edge of the Held.
Wlnslow turned. "1111 Frank!" lio
colled. "Cm here!"
Frank Joined them.
"We're right, Frank. Tbey were
. here. What's-hls-nnme here recog
nlied Kent. Said he talked with
Micky McOuire who Bow them
down, llo's gone bnck now. But
Frank ... a car mot them."
"A cart Where'd It goJ"
The man with Wlnslow lifted bis
arm and repeated the gesture
Orabame had observed.
"Took the Enclnada road," he
(aid.
"What's down there, Spin?" naked
Frank.
"Just a Moi town, seventy miles
south of here.. Thore'e a kind of a
harbor, and south of It s thousand
miles of the world's lousiest road."
"When did they leave?"
"About an hour ago. Two men.
and the girl from tho plane, and the
guy who was waiting with the car."
"How did Miss Kent look?"
Their Informant swayed his shoul
. dors and blinked his eyes; It was n
poor Imitation of an Intoxicated per
son. "Can tbo act," warned Wlnslow
gruffly.
TUB man shrugged his shoulders
and said, "It ain't Illegal In this
country. They lcckeu'klnd of blotto
if you ask me. Except the little guy
with the eagle-beak. Moan looking
little russ. Loo! cd like he wns
ready to heave a stick of dynnmllo
If anybody snoko to him. . . .
Grahame experienced a flicker of
response as the little man was de
scribed . . . tho vulturlno shadow on
the studio panel that was HI
"What are you guys nftor 'em for?
, . . . Serve a summons?"
i Wlnslow smiled. "Nope. Wo owe
'em a drink. Ready. Frank?"
The Held man valked with them
to their ship. tie commented Ihnt
the propellor was off balance, which
Wintlow acknowledged. He then
suggested that the beach at Encln
ada could be landed on It the tide
were out.
"Thanks, old mnn," said Grahame,
"We'll get along."
They lifted out of the Held and
roared acrosi the law range that lay
between them and the coast. Tin)'

swung south. For twenty minute
by tbe Illuminated dial of Frank'! '
wrist watch they followed tho coast.
The plane seemed to shake more
excessively than It had on the pre
vious Sight. Something hot stung
Frank's cheek. He put up his hand;
his face telt hot and greasy. Strain
ing about In his seat be called.
"Engine loosonlng up, Spin. Let's
get back to Callente."
"1 know HI" veiled Wlnslow. "I
haven't been able to raise her In the
last ten minutes!"
Frank pursed his lips In an In
audible whistle. That meant they
were losing altitude. They could not
lift ovor the coast grange that
blocked them from Callente field,
The vibration would get steadily
worse.
Already tbe whirling crankshaft
was putting an Impossible strain on
the connecting-rods. Within min
utes one of thorn would give; then,
It the big motor did not fly apart.
It would stall. Tho plane was nose
heavy. HE turnod to call to Wlnslow to
tell him to bank and attempt a
return up tho coast to Coronado and
San Diego. The engine .stuttered
suddenly. There wns a succession
of sickening 'humps: whereupon It
seemed to erupt. Frank threw bis
arms across jls face. Hot oil scared
his neck.
Wlnslow cried out unintelligibly.
Tbo plane lurched, leveled, and.
Frank was conscious of a shock and
tho sounds of cracking and of rend
ing about, blm. Sea water, la a
never-ending ensende, poured over
his head. He struggled with his
snfoty belt and stood erect.
Through the hiss of breaking seas,
Wlnslow called to him In a voice
charged with anxloty.
Frank replied hoarsely, "Okay,
How about you, Spin?"
"Same hero. Was that a wet
smack I Meet tho world's best crack
up man. On tho stunt-man's day off
ho crashes "
A black-throated comber reared
Its crest abovo them. Frank clung
dosperntoly ns tons of spume sluiced
about him.
Wlnslow sputtored, "Got ashore,
Frank. Crnte won't float long. An
other like that . . . Shore's not far.
Road's half a mile back. You can
nmko It. 1 think we're far enough
ahead to stop that car If you make
tho road. . . ."
A swell lifted them and dropped
thorn slckcningly Into the trough.
"Missed us, Frank. Next one
won't Get going, folia'."
Grahamo looked seaward. A long,
sullen lino of surf wns formlug a
hundred yards out. Swiftly It began
to movo toward them topped with
phosphorescent spindrift
"Como on, Spin, n big one's com
ing." Spin did not answer. Frank
strained his eyes toward htm, a sud
den fear gripping his heart He
mado out his companion's face,
white against tho black sea.
"Get going, Frank." Wlnslow's
voleo was weak. "My arm's on the
bum . . . besides, I can t swim any
way! ..."
Tho black bulk of tho oncoming
comber arose; It blotted out the
stars. Grahame threw hlmsetf to
ward It: lunging for that white face
that gleamed In the pit of the wave.
Ills hand found and clutched the
shoulder strap of Spin's 'chute
pack. Tons of water descended upon
him, driving him down Into the
blackness.
