Ce -- - BOOK REVIEW (by Wilmot Phair, Grade XII) AN EPISODE IN THE LIFE OF AN 0 AIRPLANE It was a night in June when the nights were long and warm. I was in my hangar at London receiving. a check-up from greasy mechanics when, just as they' finished, a young pilot came over to me and climbed into my cockpit, He checked my ¢on- trols, and tested my communications, By this time all-the crew had climbed aboard. My engines were roaring and away I flew, headed for-a reconnol- tering flight over-Germany. As we flew higher, it becume.very cold and the moon shone dully on my camou- flaged sides and the light was re. fracted in shimmering streaks on my prapellers. After some time, we descended through wet; misty clouds as we took a lower level. I looked down below. There were bright lights of cities. As I sailed along, the ca- mera-man on board took many pie- tures. Just then I happened to look back and there was a German "plane close to my tail. I gave myself a shake to warn, my pilot, who, upon and faster the air rushed by. actually afraid of bumping my nose when my pilot levelled me off again. Louder and louder grew the my twin engines. Faster 1 was ights I dared once to look back and still there was my enemy. My pilot, looking down, saw a depression where sand or earth had been removed, with a resultant pit. The gther 'plane was so close behind that I was at a loss to kpow what to do. Daringly, my pilot took me right down into that pit so that I was actually flying about thirty feet below ground level. Just then I heard a crash. [I thought that my wing had hit something but I felt nothing. But when I came up out of the pit, 1 saw my enemy over- turned and crushed, lying on the pit's bottom" with smoke and flames belch- ing from his sides. My pilot then set me on a course toward home and with speedy flight, we soon arrived in England without mishap. 'OBITUARY MRS.
