And while this youthful swimmer, who broke all existing records in her Channel swim. was being lionized in Europe for her victory, a sequel to this event was taking place in America which will go down on the romantic pages of journalism as one of the biggest “s000ps” in newspaper enterprise. Using a four-plane relay in co- operation with the Canadian Pacific steamer the Empress of Scotland. representatives of the New York News, landed the actual photographs of the great Channel swim in their offices in New York fully twenty- four hours before other prints could possibly arrive.

Even the (‘ommander of the ship was ignorant of their value until a radio message flashed in giving the in- structions for the disposal of the prints. A seaplane would pick them' up near Anticosti Island. True to the arrangements the seaplane was sighted a few miles from the island near English Bay, and Commander Latta gave instructions to an officer to wrap the photographs in a water- proof float and lower them over the side of the ship. The seaplane cir- cled the ship and alighted. In a few minutes the package was picked up but the sea had become so choppy that it took the plane several hours to taxi to the lee of the island be- fore it could rise.

These two planes hopped of! for New York and were hopeful of reaching New York for the Saturday edition of the News, but heavy fogs descended and killed all hopes. One of the planes was forced down at St. Eloi and success was up to the other plane. After flying in the fog almost to Montreal, it turned south and landed at Plattsburg and met an- other plane at the parade grounds there. Here the other plane took the pictures and began the last leg of the perilous flight to New York. Flying at 112 miles an hour through three electric storms and one of the heaviest fogs ever encountered by the flyers the plane landed at the West Side Park, Jersey City. ,A little over three hours after the final dash was begun the pictures were deliv- ered at the offices of the News in New York 24 hours ahead of picture en route via New York mm.
