AIR RE C O E -------- From ~ y ney, Nova Scoti a , come the s tory of how fourteen were s aved from a burnin g airliner by a quick-thinkin~ stewardess and purser. On the take-off, the big plane just touched a ridge or mound, ripped open a gasoline tank, and crashed. As one wing burst into flames, the stewardess, Rita Myers, lined up her eleven passengers. There was no time to use a landing raap. Purser Jack Triggs jumped out, and then the stewardess pushed the passengers through the door. One by one the purser caught them -- to break the fall. Several times he went iown. But he bounced up each time -- until al : the passengers and the four c~ew men were safe. By w ic h time the airliner ·was li.az ing furiously. The last to jump was the Stewardess Myers, As the flames scorched her hair. BA~_JlOTH - Good ne s from Ne York Memorial Hospital. A report that Babe Ruth hts r llied again. And is holding his own.
