BERING HOP NIGHTMARE: FOR FLIERS flew Three Hours Unable ; i to See Outside Cockpit ! Miles of Ice Floes Only Guidepost Fried Chicken ' On Ground Makes Hit 'NOM13, Alaska, June 30. Wiley Font and Harold Gutty pre ferred death in the Berlnjc ea to cracking up tholr whip us thuy got nearer New York, thuy mild hero lato yewtordny when they arrived from Khabarovsk, Siberia, on their record-breaking fllgM u round the world. "We experienced every kind ot weather imaginable coming to Solomon from Khaliarovfik,1' Pout wild as he nnd Gatty climbed from their ship, the Winnie Mug, at the little mining village of gold rush day, 86 miles from Nome. "I flew for three hour nnd n half Sunday night with the weath er bo thick that I didn't see more than the glasu on the cockpit win down at any time," Pout declared between mouthfuls of fried chick en as he watched mechanics re fueling the ship. Preferred Sea Death "I thought then, well, I would u damn sight rather croak flying across the Bering; sea than crack the ship down south after we're almoHt home. We managed finally to see enough light to guide the ship safely here but all the way u cross the Bering Bca we saw miles and miles ot ice floes moving Hteadily northward Into the straits. The cold and haze prevented us from going to a high altitude. We tried It once and almost froze to death. "For the lost two hundred miles Into Solomon we flew above clouds and did not drop beneuth them until within about ten miles of Solomon." Hatty Fine Navlgntor Post paid high tribute to Gatty as a navigator and gave his com panion much credit for the success of the flight so far. Gatty in turn said Post was the master of the flight and "somo flier." "I thought we were gone once," Gutty said, "but I know now when Wiley is at the stick we're going to pull through." Although the filers were on a nerve strain when they landed after their 2400-mHe bop In 16 hours und 17 minutes, both were In excellent spirits and seem cor tain they would have very little difficulty for the remainder of the trip. "We ire glad to put our feet on good old American ground again," mild Poi:t as he eased himself to tho ground at Solomon. "Sixteen "Of course, it's Schilling's" Good coffee depends a lot on you It depends on how you make iteven how you feel when you drink it. So you find that it varies from time; to time. Unfortunately, the coffee you buy is also apt to vary. So it's not always your fault. It would seem an idle claim for us to say that Schilling Coffee docs not vary likcA others. Yet it's trucl If at any time you think it docs vary, merely ff phone your grocer. Your money back instantly. You keep the coffee. We pay him.

Rusfdaiis Good Hoste The fliers said the Russians were wonderful to them and "did everything possible under the sun for us. They tried to speed ui along as fast as we could go, hop ing we would break all records to Hmlthereens." Except for having to fight weather most of the way across Siberia, the airmen said they had little trouble although their plane "bogged to her belly" when they set her down on a muddy field at Blagoveshchensk. "We finally managed to pull her out with the assistance of a .whole regiment of soldiers." Post and Gatty told their story as they sat near their plane on the field at Solomon, eating other food than that which had been pre pared for them In Nome. They watched mechanics refuel and check over the entire ship before they climbed In for the start to Fairbanks. Like Fried Chicken "This 1b the first we have eaten of any good food since we left Moscow," Post said between mouthfuls. "We ate only a few mouthfuls of black bread each day and drank some strong tea. This fried chicken is fine. I'm as hun gry and dry as a fish. Say, this coffee is the best I've had to drink a week." ' As the airmen prepared to start from Solomon for Fairbanks the plane wheels mired In the sand and the plane nosed over ontothe propeller. The propeller was bent at both ends but after five minutes work with a hammer and piece of Iron, Post pronounced It okeh and climbed aboard. Gatty was badly shaken up when struck by the propeller but not seriously Injured. The navigator was leaning over the propeller priming the engine when the heat of the engine fired a few cylinders, bringing the propeller around and striking him over the heart. .
