Aviator Holds Hysterical Pas
senger With One Hand and
Steers Machine-WitK Other;
Lands Without - Jar.:: 2
New Tork, Feb. il. It's all right for
an experienced aviator to be 1000 feet
In the air In a biplane, even on a near.
sero day. '
It' all right though not quite so
comfortable If tlje gasoline In his
carbureter freeaes all of a sudden and
his engine "stops after a couple of
skips. x
. But . . ..'... :
Given that combination of clrcum
stances, plus a woman passenger who la
lawng her. first aerial voyage, and then
add to that a fit of hysteria which at.
. 'tacks the woman passenger so that she
screams and twists In her seat and ap
pears willing at any ' Instant'to throw
herself tfverboard, and the situation, as
an entirety, Is nearly enough to rattle
mo ueat airman mat ever new.
Mrs. Dunlap the Passeaa-er.
That is exactly what happened when
- ueuiga ,w aeaiiy; one or the most
daring flyers hereabouts, took : aloft
from Belmont en rk Mn. William 1
- Dunlap, of Nassau boulevard,-wh for a
. iuug ume rjireviousiy naa declared she
would "Just love" to be a bird-woman.
Beatty is the man who not long ago
took up another good-sized clttaen and
two small boys, making the first four
passenger flight In America. Bp when
- Mrs. Punlap announced her ambition ha
was very willing to gratify It.
- The -weather y& "calm,- but" bitterly
-eold when they aroaa from the field of
the old race track late yesterday after
Njoon. The biplane achieved an altitude
of 1000 feet and then circled over 1 Floral
park, Nassau boulevard and Other vllr
ages . In the vicinity, ; traveling, as
Beatty phrased it, "as steady as a tramp
freighter on a summer afternoon lnthe
. f bay." ..:,..- . . ' . .
TBut then the motor stopped dead.
There was nothing particularly ..dan
gerous about that, for there was plenty
of height from which to glide in a
; long spiral to earth. Also, there were
good landing places. y
Mrs. -Dunlap. though, didn't know all
' this. -She simply knew that something
- had gone wrong, since there was noJ
that comforting whirr of engines be
hind, her.' It was very cold and very
silent, and the earth waa a long dls-
, tance down.
" So she began to-scream and squirm.
Beatty, realizing that he had a man's
slsed Job to .bring the plane to earth
safely without any unnecessary over
i bulancings, was obliged to turn around
w and grasp Mrs. Dunlap with one hand
and then maneuver,,, his descending
planes and his balancing apparatus with
the other. , .
" landed Without a Jar.
Probably no aviator ever" had such a
complicated Job. He couldn't come
straight down in a long glide, because
Of tlift character of the rnnnr1r hut urn a
obliged to circle; which added another
lasa to those which already confronted
mm. out he got away, with them all
and lantind without a 1nr.
It was found that Mrs. Ounlap's co-
pious tears had frozen upon her cheeks,
and she required medical aid before she
could an to her homo
Beatty didn't mind the experience
wry mucn. He iook up several otrwr
passengers arierwara, out no women.
