narrowly missing a passenger.
The aunman forced his way In
to the cockpit and ordered Cleal
to take off immediately tor Ar
kansas. When the pilot attempted
to restrain Britt, the herserk man
fired a bullet into deal's head.
Britt was subdued by the co
pilot and other passengers, and
Cleal was rushed to a hospital
where doctors saved his life. But,
he lost one eye completely and
lost the vision in the other.

pecially a blind one, would con
sider starting over. Cleal decided
to be an exception.

At his Menlo Park home with

evenings, and he used tape-re
corded textbooks when she was
busy at her duties as a housewife
