He left the lion unharmed by the abrupt landing, but momewhat thirsty and with growing = hunger. The lion, a veteran of the circus * and long inured to motion picture work, but a novice at flying, appeared * highly disgusted with his pilot, ac- ¢ cording to Jensen's story telephoned . broken here, The lion's steel c: came safely through the crash. The prin- cipal damage to the plane was in wings and propeller. The engine of the monoplane, similar in { design to that Col. Charles A. Lind- bergh flew across the seemed unharmed. Damage to Be Investigated. Mrs. Jensen left the plane which Atlantic, i had been searching for her husband ¥ at Yuma and hurried to join him. The plane later may fly to the site of i Jensen's fall to determine what dam- : age was done. A motor truck carry- ing a cage has been ordered from Los Angeles to rescue Leo. Jensen’s flight started from San * Diego Friday morning. That after- ¢ moon. while flying low up a canyon, : he suddenly was confronted by the wall in which it ended. A tree top % stopped the plane in time to prevent his striking the wall of the canyon, but it rolled over twice after landing. “I didn’t have time to think of what might happen while the plane was ¥ rolling over on the tree, not even if $ the cage should have split open and dumped the lion. But he seems to i have taken care of himself in the cage while we were tumbling and if % he didn't like it, he didn't make any roar about it. *“When I asked him how he felt ! he licked his chops and settled him- self as best he could in the cage of the wrecked plane. I stripped a piece of aluminum off the plane and made a trough that I filled with water for ! him from the creek in the canyon. = Then I fixed him up with what milk s we had left, divided my sandwiches | with him and started down the can- : yon for help, not knowing where I was going, but figuring that if I fol- i lowed the creek down I'd come out somewhere. around the mountain and several|. wall After circling clear others, I had to crawl up the canyon 1. “The first day I walked till dark. © After a sleep in the brush I got up at ; daylight and went on. My shoes be- ' gan to drop off Sunday. i £ § i £ Finds a Ranch House. *“The first sign of habitation I found ‘was a ranch house I came to Monday forenoon. I told the rancher who I was and where the lion was. He promised to take some food to Leo and directed me to the H-Bar ranch. ‘When I got there the foreman tele- phoned out that I was alive.” Jensen added that the lion behaved + beautifully all the way, lying quietly ! 1n his cage, with the exception of once - when he jumped to his feet as the % plane ran over a hump in the take-off at Camp Kearny. Ranchers promised to carry food to Leo pending the ar- ; rival of keepers sent from here with a truck bearing a cage. —_— : $10,000 DAMAGES SOUGHT. ‘Widow Files Action for Death of Husband.
