Shoppers who try to cross streets buried under a load of packages or step from curbs without checking for traffic, Altitude Major Concern During Speed Flight Washington (UPD A boyish looking Air Force pilot told Wednesday how it feels to fly a plane faster than any other living human. Your big worry is altitude, not speed, when you flash across a California desert at 1,520.9 miles an hour to; set a new world record. Major Concern Maj. Joseph W. Rogers, 35, Worthington, Ohio, said this was his major concern as he flashed through the skies above Edwards Air Force Base in a F106 Delta Dart jet Tuesday morning. Rogers and four other re cent record-setting Air Force officers appeared together at the Pentagon to receive the Distinguished Flying Cross for their exploits. In April, 1956, Capt. Milburn G. Apt flew the purely experimental X2 at an unofficial speed of 2,148 miles an hour but the flight ended in a tragic crash killing Apt.

He has given the following tips for good-walking: Obey traffic signals and signs, cross at intersections only, look left and right for traffic while crossing, .and watch for turning cars before crossing. Never walk into the street from between parked cars, and on busy streets, enter and leave cars only , on the curb side. If it is necessary to walk on the road, walk on the left side facing traffic, he advised. Stand on the sidewalk, not the street, while waiting for the opportunity to cross a street, he said., " At . nighty wear something that will be easily visible to motorists, such as light col ored clothing. j Jupiter, Snark 1 Missiles Fired Cape Canaveral, Fla.
