AMERICA'S ACE OF ACES STIRS LARGE AUIDENCE l j Waves Aside Own Accom ■ plishments in Air to Laud Other Flyers That the romance of the recent | war was to be found in the air was I evident to the audience that enjoyed the lirst-hand story of his experiences Iby Captain "Eddie" Rickenbacker. ' America's ace of aces, at the Or pheuin Theater last evening. The famous flyer, wearing the rib -5 bons of the D. S. C„ the Croix de | Guerre with four palms, and the ! Medaille Militaire, made a very fa- I vorable impression upon and was j heartily applauded at frequent in tervals by an enthusiastic audience. His talk, interspersed with hunvor ; ous stories and anecdotes, was fol i lowed by .a number of photographs ' and moving pictures showing some |of America's foremost air lighters • and an actual combat in the air be tween a German l-'okker and a ' French Bpad, taken over the Amer ican front. Tells Story of White j The story he told of Lieutenant ; Wilbur White, of New York City, commanding the 147 th Aero Pursuit : Squadron, was one of extraordinary : i heroism. "During the battle of the J j Marne I went out on a reconnais- j ! sance mission with my squadron, the 94th Pursuit Squadron (.the only aero j outfit, by the way. that went into ) ; Germany with the Army of Occupa itioni. Two other squadrons were j assigned me for flank protection. I' one on the right, the other on the left. While flying over the Ger man lines we ran into a veritable army of enemy planes, which seemed 'to be everywhere. I could see that i it was going to be some 'dog tight.' "One of Lieutenant White's in experienced flyers was set upon by a German during the mix-up. As he was getting the range and setting his sights the lieutenant opened up. : but his guns jammed. Without hesi tation. and in order to save the life i of this boy of his squadron, he dived headlong at the German and rammed : ' him, both planes going over a hun- ! ! dred miles an hour. The fuselages 'of the two planes telescoped and 'dropped to the ground in flames. For i sheer bravery it was the greatest and ' finest thing, to my mind, that has i happened in the air in this or any i other army. The sad part about his death was that he was on his last flight and had already received or ders to return to America as an in structor, with the opportunity of seeing his wife and two small chil dren." Ixtuds Major Lufbcry Captain Rickenbacker. who talkeC about everybody but himself, paid a high tribute to Major Kaoul Luf bery. who had formerly been in command of "Rick's" squadron, and to whom he gave the credit for the reputation which the 94th Squadron acquired. A picture of the little yard belonging to a French peasant, i into which the body of the famous flyer dropped when his plane was sent down in flames, was shown or ' the screen, as well as the broker picket fence which he struck in fall : ing. i He told a story of a new membe: of his squadron who was anxious t< ! get a look at German territory and begged Rickenbacker to take hin ' up. So one morning at 4 o'clock • they started, well bundled up agains' ! the intense cold of the upper air. ! While in the clouds the famous act i lost his companion, and when he re turned to the airdrome several hours 'later, the young man met him "Hello, eskimo," he said. "I got s< ■ cold I had to come back to thav out: I'm afraid to laugh yet for feu* i I'll crack: why. we were so high ut I that I saw the sun rising for daj ' after to-morrow." Violet on the Ground He then referred to Lieutenant i Frank Luke, the premier "balloor strafer." whom he declared was : violet when on the ground, but t j regular firebrand in the air, driving ! everything and everybody out of hi j path. "The day he was killed," saic jf'aptain Rickenbacker, "he had gorn | out alone on a still hunt for the Roche. Returning a short time later i lie dropped a note to one of his ow> balloon observers, telling him tr watch the German "sausages" op posite. that he was going to get them and wanted official confirmation o! his victories. Sure enough, after i few minutes, one of the balloors went down in flames, then the th other two in quick succession. W ail waited for him to return, but h<" never did. After the armistice wa c ' signed we got the news of his death from some French peasants in terri tory previously occupied by the Ger mans. It seems he had been at tacked by half a dozen enemy planes two of whom he got before they brought him down. Landing withir their lines, he dived into a shell hole and drew his automatic, kill ing several German infantrymen whr tried to capture him. Finally the> turned a machine gun on him and killed him." Talks Impersonally As he talked on and on. in an in formal manner, one wondered if perhaps he wouldn't describe some of his own engagements, but with the exception of one or two flight" he talked impersonally. He did ten of one "dog fight" in which be saw a German plane pursued to earth by a member of his own squadron, who in turn was followed by another German. So Rickenbacker "tagged on to the procession" and of the four that made up the column, each fir ing at the plane in front of him, all three but himself crashed. Hun Shows Pictures Among the pictures shown were a number of aerial photographs taken by a German flyer whom Rick enbacker met in Cohlenz after the armistice was signed. This flyer heard "Rick." as he called him. was in town and looked him up to show him these photos that he and other Germans had taken over the Amer ican lines. They were taken thou sands of feet in the air. but clearly showed hangars and aeroplanes, bil lets. trenches, roads, trees and shell holes with unmistakable clearness. They had even taken a picture of a section of Paris just as a shell from i the long-range gun was bursting on | the bank of the Seine river, a pic ture that must have proved of in estimable value to the Germans in ranging subsequent shots. The language of the aviator was a bit hard to understand at times, bu' when he remembered too. Captain Rickenbacker explained the meanine of such words as "zoomed," "piqued " "taxied" and other characteristic ex pressions of the airman. Asked as to the sporting qualities of his opponents, he said he thought they were about flftyv fifty. "Some were hard-boiled eggs of course, but I ran across a number of decent ones who played the game and were dar ing fighters." Gives t'p Ocean Plights Captain Rickenbacker returned from the other side primarily with the intention of making an attempt j at the trans-Atlantic flight. He had the support and backing of Generals | Pershing and Liggett, and collect ed all the necessary data, returning via England in order to gather fur- j ther information as to trade winds. | etc. When he got back to America, j however, he found little enthusiasm i 0 Y 'Hal Factory To Wearer | No. 2 Harrisburg Store | § Operated By Devine & Yungel Shoe Mfg.
