Freshman History On the day after Labor Day, 1930, it was reported that the D-O-'34 took off from D. T. H. S. flying field with the determination to set a new endurance rec- ord in scholastic achievement. This was the largest passenger plane that had ever attempted a record of this kind. There were eighty-five passengers aboard. Miss Morse acted as pilot of the refueling plane while Francis McConnell piloted the D-0-'34, His chief assistant was Mary Zappa, his first lieutenant, Maude Steichen, and his second lieutenant, Earl Schrotberger. For the first six weeks the endurance record was made possible by the scholastic attainments of twelve of the passengers. Their record was high enough to place them upon the honor roll. At the end of the second period thirteen had gained this honor and at the end of the third period eleven upheld the record. The voyage was too strenuous for twelve of the passengers and at the end of the third period it was necessary to lower them to earth, where they joined another party. On January 17, the D-O-'34 landed at Revelry Island and had a night of dancing and bunco. The following week the plane was refueled and set out again upon its endurance flight. Reports say that the plane is expected to re- main aloft three more years. MILDRED MCKINNEY FRANCIS MCCONNEI.L GREEN ONES Little ones and big ones, Girl ones and boy ones, Running to and fro.
