Pe Te OClOR eM Tite OOWRS til Zo One hundred and eleven students applied for passage on the “Good Ship °29” and the flight started in September, 1925. Before taking off, the veterans of the air took it upon them- ss to acquaint the new comers with the perils of the journey and “Freshman Reception” was given. .On the following day, the ship a her journey with Lehre Martin and Margaret Teall acting as pilots, Vera Justice and John Ferguson as mates, and Mr. Thompson as their capable commander. ‘The first lap of the journey was unevent- ful. I rank eee and Roy Long then took their posts at the helm with Hene Wilson, Jim Page, Doyle Haney, and Frank Bergon assist- ing them. Mr. Thompson was retained as commander. Putting out from port for the third time, we find that the re- sponsibility of piloting our ship rested upon Dean Smellie and Juanita Baker, with Delma Ballenger, Glen Caldwell, and Martha Fletcher as mates. Miss Hall was the commander. However, a great misfortune had come over the crew, and only thirty-nine remained to carry on the journey. This lap was broken by several short stops. At one of these landings, the crew put on a play called “Safety First.” Another short stop was made when the passengers entertained at a “‘Junior-Senior Reception.” With Frank Bergon as pilot for the first half of the flight, our fliers started out on the last lap of their journey. The mates consisted of Dean Smellie and Vera Justice. Mr. Barager held the position of commander. A few short landings were made for basketball and football games. The second half promised to be much more exciting. ‘Ihe crew selected Coe Swift as pilot, and Dan Milinovich, Martha Sledge, and Wayne Woods as ship mates. Mr. Barager was retained as com- mander. This lap was necessarily broken by stops, for our fliers were now a group of celebrated aviators. A number of these landings were made for the purpose of holding debates with the members of other ships, and a silver cup was added to the collection of souvenirs brought home by the crew. Another stop was made necessary when each member of the crew appeared on the job in a comical costume. The final stop was made when our heroes put on the play, “The Whole Town’s Talking.” On June 8, 1929, the “Good Ship 29” stopped her motors on the landing field of her destination, PURI Le WIA pany Qa BS EE Ss aif ith
