: and industrial specialties provided
farther rallying fuel for the stock
market today and favorites steam
ed up 1 to 4 points generally with
a few climbing much more.
A hesitant sUrt was succeeded
by a swift buying rush that put
the ticker tape behind momentar
ily. Dealings thereafter were com
paratively slow. Profit selling on
yesterday's late J"un-up and tr.e
additional advance today pared
extreme gains in the final hour.
Short covering was plentiful.

Brokers said some speculative
forces had turned to the recovery
side in the belief the long down
turn In stocks since last October
had discounted much of the re
cession in business and that the
odds were more In favor of a re
bound than, otherwise.
The ' Associated Press average
of CO stocks was up .7 of a point
at 46.5. Transfers totaled 1.5 56,

CHAPTER XXVIII
Cleaving their way through the
good-natured crowd in wedge for
mation, ctme a number of news
papermen who had been washed
from their positions by the uncon
trollable sea of humanity sweeping
past guard lines onto the landing
field. They clambered over and into J
the automobiles which by now were
making slow and cautious progress
through the cheering crowd toward
the ; nearest highway. Questions j
were hurled at the returned heroes
like bombs. Out of their fragmen
tary replies was woven the story of
.v - " i vi j
their remarkable adventure.
Lqct Lee heard it first as did
sountless other lis ten ers-in, almost
.as soon as it fell from the lips of
the adventurers themselves. "Ladies
and gentlemen, we are delighted to
bring to you first authentic radio
news the astoundine return to
life and civilisation of Bruce Lor-
ing, noted motion-picture star, and
hiz companion Clyde Dixon.
"Thes- two intrepid travelers of
the air. as you know, took off from a
Los Angeles airport some weeks ago
ia Mr. LoTing s specially designed
amnhibian Diane on its maiden
Toyage of any lenjrth. Their desti
nation was the Mexican state of
Durango, a hunter's paradise where
big j game of various species
abounds, from grizzly bear to moun
tain sheep.
"But off the coast of Lower Call
fornia Loring's plane ran into an
unexpected storm which blew them
far off their route and subjected the
ship to a terrific atmospheric bat
tering. Engine trouble developed
and a forced landing was necessary,
."Darkness obscured their view of
the terrain below. Suddenly the ship
burst into flames, no doubt from a
leaky gasoline line. There was no
escape from a fearful death by fire
but to abandon the plane and trust
their lives to parachutes. Bruce
Lorinr and Clyde Dixon took the
perilous leap into the unknown
and after drifting for a considerable
time, they landed safely but at wide
ly separated points.
"Loring found himself floating in
the Pacific not far from a small
Island off the shores of Mexico.
. While Dixon, carried farther along,
came down on the far side of the
island.
"Loring. being powerful swim
mer, managed to reach the shore, al
though almost exhausted. It was not
until several days later that the two
" men,! each believing himself to be
the sole survivor, found one another
again the only human beings upon
that rocky and rarely visited island!
The story of their weeks of isola
inn mnA eventual rescue bv Mexican
fishermen, is a truly startling one. Loring turned and shouted some

I Horns tooted deafeningly, passers-
by cheered, more machines joined
the procession and added tha" toot
ing- of their horns to the dm.
Loring and Dixon, requested to
sit on the turned-back tops of their
cars as on thrones, smiiea ana
waved in response to the cheering
crowds. "Grin at them, Clyde take
your bows. Oive, boy, givei bee
that blonde cutie throwing kisses at
you?" Don Ames yelled excitedly.
"Boy, is she a whizzy little num
ber!" Where Clyde turned, searched
(the sea of faces.
I t;u v-
Right there in the red, white
and blue get-up. She looks like a
sweetheart of the army and navy
both! Give her the business, you big
boob I -
Although the mass of staring
faces swam indistinctly before bis
eyes and the blonde cutie was as
vague as the rest, Clyde waved and
shouted: "Hello," in the general di
rection indicated. The crowd roared
and someone threw a small bunch of
flowers toward the car. Clyde, on his
seat of vantage, caught it expertly
and again there was a shout of ap
proval from the mob.
All the rest of the way, flowers
were tossed until the two cars were
1 piled with blossoms like, triumphal
chariots bearing conquering heroes.
Several times when trathc jams
forced the slowly moving machines
to stop at some intersection, pretty
girls jumped on the running boards
and imprinted hasty kisses on the
gun-browned faces of the two men,
"Oh. migosh," Clyde exclaimed in
dismay at the first of these en
counters, his bronzed skin turning a
deep crimson with embarrassment
But after the second girl bad
thrown her arms about his- neck he
did not dodee but took her kiss fairly
on the mouth, amid wild shouts of
approval from the delighted oa
lookers.
"Attaboy. Clyde!" "Don't be
bashful. Big Boy." "Whoopee 1
"You're learning fast," grinned
Ames. "When jrou get tired of kiss
ing 'cm, turn a few over to me. Look
at Loring.". he chuckled. "They're
hanging on him like he was a Christ
mas tree. And boy, does be kiss 'eat!
Plenty, of footage there. 111 say,
When he kisses 'em they stay
kissed! Wait. I've got an idea.1

Loring machine. Clyde saw him
talking earnestly for a lew mo

his dark, sleek head in denial; then,
breaking into a great, boyish laugh,

he asked for was a barber and about
a thousand dollars worth of ham
and eggs."
What m the name . of reducing
diets did you two eat on that island
of yours?" Ames asked. "You both
look kinda thin."
"Clams and fish, mostly. Abalone.
Stuff like that."
Raw?"
"No, we cooked 'em. I had a
watertight ease of matches in my
pocket and we kept a fire burning
night nd day. To cook on hot
stones, you know and for a signal.
That's what finally brought the
Mexican fishermen who took us off.
They hardly ever land on that Is
land. But they saw the smoke."
Thus in broken snatches, Ames
got his first account of the amazing
story for which the world waited
with breathless interest. A tale
which he was destined to present in
many forms over the radio, in
magazine articles and tnrougn
newspaper syndicates. All of course
signed and supposedly written by
Clyde Dixon.
At last it was over. The escorting
machines dropped away until there
were comparatively lew leit to
bring the parade to its close at the
Loring home, a dignified Monterey-
type house on one of the palm-lined
avenues of Beverly Hills. Loring
shook hands solemnly with his com
panion in adventure, winking pro
digiously with, his off eye. Tha one
away from the grinding cameras of
the newsreel photographers. -
"See you tonight, Old Timer," be
said.
They were to meet again that
night at Che huge official banquet of
welcome at the Ambassador, being
arranged by the studio executives
in honor of their star's spectacular
return.
"Where do we go from here?"
Clyde asked as he and Don Ames got
into their car again. "Look! There's
still a bunch of machines following
us."
'Let 'em follow, bless their little
hearts. If s good for business. We're
going to the ; hotel. Your head
quarters." .
'What d'you mean, my headquar
ters?" . - - .

tracts," Ames grinned. "I've got

teen hundred, easy. Then there are
the STOdicaU articles your en
dorsements of everything- from .

starter. WeH probably get fifty to
seventy-five grand out of the pie-

"What picture?"
"The one you and Bruce Loring
are gonna make, of course. You
don't suppose those Great Minds in
the N. P. N. outfit would miss a
chance to cash in on a break like
this, do you? They've got about
twenty of -their crack scenario
hounds at work on a story already."
