The two pilots, meanwhile, were i at thj homes of their parents, receiving old friends and relaxing from the strain of their 7,800-mile journey across the Pacific. )

Wilmer Stultz and Lou Gordon chafed under the delay and the situations that have arisen to prevent a start of the flight. They were especially disconsolate because reports from New York said Miss Mabel 801 l was preparing to leave immediately on the start of a trans-Atlantic flight.
