3 Jet Fighters Streak 6,710 Miles Non-Stop
LOS ANGELES UV-For three
young U. S. Air Force pilots, it
was a breakfast of steak and eggs
in jolly England and an after
noon round of drinks in balmy
Los Angeles.
In between was an historic 14
hour, five-minute nonstop flight of
6,710 miles longest ever made by
single-engine jet planes. The hop
was made at an average speed
of more than 475 miles an hour.
After they brought their F100C
Super Sabre Jets down here yes
terday, the fliers described the
trip as a routine, long-range,
cruise control flight. But Air
Force brass regarded it as some
thing more dramatic than that.
Gen. Otto P. Weyland, com
mander of the Tactical Air Com
mand, wired the pilots: "Your
flieht . . . care added emphasis to
TAC's position as a global deter
rent to limited war. as demon
strated by the mission today,
TAC's atomic forces can reach
any point when aggression oc
curs." The three swept-wlng .Super
Sabres were piloted by Capt. Jack
Bryant, 28. Muskogee, Okla.;
Capt. Alan Engle, S8, Aden, Mich.
and Lt. Theodore. Workman. 25,
Oxford, Mich. They were part of

Don't Detour to Bad Habits
Of Seemingly Popular Girls
DEAR DOROTHY DIX: Several weeks ago, in answer to an offer
in your column. I wrote for a leaflet on saying grace. I was delighted
with it, and my family has been inspired to say grace at each meal
i i urn a custom I have always wanted to Institute.
Sy?L. r 1 Now I have a request. Do you have a similar
leaflet on children's prayers? If so, I would be
very grateful to receive it. Anita D.
DEAR ANITA: Thanks for your appreciative
words. Many readers reported equal satisfaction
with the grace leaflet, I shall be very happy to
-send you a few prayers for children. If you will
send me a self-addressed, stamped envelope. This
offer, of course, Is open to all readers.
I would also like to recommend most highly, a
delightful book for youngsters. This is Dale Evans'
Prayer Book for Children, a beautiful Illustrated book that will ap
peal to children and grownups.
DEAR DOROTHY DIX: Does it pay to be a good girl? We are
two teen-agers of average looks, watching all the boys flock to the
girls who smoke, drink and pet. We have no desire to do the same,
but would like to be popular. , Is that the only way? Sally.
DEAR SALLY: Your quiet way of Ufe may not be the road to quick
popularity but lt Is the way to meet alee boys and, most assuredly.
It's the shortest road to marriage. Don't detour.
DEAR DOROTHY DIX: I'm a 64-year-old widow, still slim, attrac
tive and well dressed. A bachelor, younger than me by a few years,
has been dating me for the past year. He won't take me out in public.
We go to the movies, he brings me right home, and won't even stop
for a soda. Alyce.
DEAR ALYCE: Your beau may be telling people his lady com
