I congratulated her on her success.She asked me over for dinner, but I decided I'd better go on. I was tired of Chicago and planned to leave soon. It just happened that I had parked my ma- chine in front of a gymnasium and out came a tall girl with her basketball suit on and a basketball in each hand. I thought this looked strange as it was in July. As she came closer to me I knew I had seen her somewhere. Crazy me, I went up and asked her who she was and she told me she was Vir- ginia Hudson. I asked her what she was doing here She told me she was a teacher and basketball Coach She said she liked basketball so well that . she came out every day and practiced an hour. She told me she and R. B. Summers were married. I offered my congratulations and in my ship to take off a- gain. Where would I go? I had no idea at all. I closed my eyes and picked out a spot on a map and it happened to bd the little town of Last Hope,Ind iana. I wasn't so excited about this place but I would just see what it was like. I parked my machine besides a lovely post of- fice and decided while I was there I would send some post cards back home to let the folks know what a swell time I was having. A bald headed man waited on me, and I noticed a ring on his finger which looked very much like our class rings. About that time three cute little boys came in and they said, NPoppa Headden wants to see youu. I looked real close again and recognized Wilbur. He had followed in the steps of his dad. I asked about his wife, and then he told me that Walter R. Mont- gomery was here too. He gave me his address so I went to find him.

I finally found Walter and he said that he was running an exclusive girls sohool.But don't get alarmed, he was married to Geraldine and she helped him. Bright and early I left Last Hope and headed for the coast. I was hot and tired and thought a good swim would do me good. I picked out Tampa Beach and landed there. I rented my suit and went out on this beach. I was trying to sleep but that was hopeless for two little kids kept hollering--- and yelling and running around me. I became very mad and was at the point of giving vent to my ang- er wnen I heard their mother crying out at them. HJUNIOR, you better stop that, ----- OH, JUNIOR, let WILLIAM alone.n They very quickly told her to shut her mouth, and to this she promptly got up and started chasing them. She tripped on my foot and I helped her up. As I did this I noticed the woman was Caroline. She told me of her life since 'N2, how Brush had talked her into marrying him.She had three boys as you already know. Brush was a life guard here. I went home with her and stayed a day or two. I was getting in my machine when the oddest looking airplane pulled up. I had never seen such a plane. Its wings were as broad as they werelong The pilot stepped out and began asking me about my machine. I told him all about it and who I was He said, Hwell, I'll be. I'm Tommy Connellyn. I asked him to tell me all about himself. He said that he designed, flew and constructed the planes for the Connelly Aircraft Factory. I left this place and headed for Philadelphia. '1N!Fl'
