Ho unexpectedly discovered them hidden in his audience, while he wns telling his own story ot the air. Abruptly breaking off his lecture. Captain llickenbnekcr stepped to the edge of the stage, and, pointing n finger to the rear of the house, an nounced : "I tecogni7e back there the familiar faces of tluee of the greatest pilots the war has pioduced. Between them they have downed from 12." to 130 boche planes. There they sit. Take a good look at them." Then he led the cheers that broke loose for Majora F. F. Fullard, S.

Scarcely had tho audience taken the breath of relief that' comes with the re cital of a comic Incident, ns Captain Eddie described how he saw a German flier step calmly "nverbonrd" from his burning machine only to sail down gracefully to his own lines with the aid of n tieqt little parachute, when a new thrill enme. This was when the speaker told of "tho lone hunter." Eleven Balloons In Eight Days Tho sobriquet was that of Captain Trank Lute, of 1'hoenix, Ariz., who, Rickcnbackfr said, '.ind a singular dis like of superior officers nnd their or ders, nnd who preferred to "go off by himself." Captain Lute downed eleven Gcrmnn observation balloons on eight consecutho days, but the last victory cost him his life. , The same modestry that won the hearts of the audience in the incident of the recognition of his English friends was apparent when Captain Eddie said: "Speaking of nces your real, lion-est-to-goodness ace Is none else but the American doughboy. He can't fly east, west, clown or lip as high as he ilcslrfH, He must face the guns, the machine guus, the cannon, while bombs drop from the nir nnd mines threaten ntnle ncath.
