Oct. 10.— Flicrs who are physically normal re found by the government to be the safest pilots. Analyzing 4,227 airplane acci- dents, the medical section of the Commerce Department’'s Aeronau- tic Branch concluded that physical- ly defective fliers contributed 40 per cent more accidents than could be expected for their number. Tt was found that 11.9 per cent of licensed pilots of all grades are physically defective and 88.1 per cent are physically normal. The former were responsible for 17 per cent of all accidents. Physical Defects A Hazard “From time to time,” said Clar- ence M. Young, Assistant Secretary of Commerce for Aeronautics, “the department has been requested to lower its physical standards for air- craft pilots.

Defctive Students Fail Tt was found that out of every 100 student applicants seven are physically disqualified, 15 physical defects and 78 are normal. less than three were able to cbtain a pilot’s license within a year, while 24 of the normal students be- came accredited {fliers. also that performance of a pilot or as physical defects increase in severity. —_—————— paners at The ®mpire Old Tubes Service Open Evenings B E ' "WOODS ARCTIC Down Sleeping Robes !Sleep snug and sound in a genuine {'Woods Arctic — the real pioneer |eiderdown of the North.
