A routine report reaching Army Air Corps headquarters yester- day told how an Army pilot had fallen unconscious more than two miles in a tailspin and recovered in time to live to tell the tale. Lieut. D. D. Graves of the 95th Pursuit Squadron at Rockwell Field, California, lost conscious- ness at an altitude of 25,000 feet m an airplane he was testing. A fitting on his oxygen tank failed. The plane lurched into a spin and he did not begin to recover until passing the 15,000-foot alti- tude. So fast was his drop that he had fallen 2.000 feet more be- fore regaining his faculties suffi- ciently to bring the plane into control. He landed without damage to the ship. and Lester G.

T/IE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON. D¢, FRIDAY. JANUARY a2 WATER MAIN BREAK TEARS UP STREET Repairs, Causing Unusual Pressure, Blamed for Two Bursted Pipes. Two water mains burst simultane- ously at 1 o'clock this morning, one of them tearing a hole 3 feet in diameter in the street and sending a column of water 25 feet into the air. Eighth pre- cinct police explained that repairs being made on other mains caused unusual pressure at the points where the breaks occurred. The most serious of the two breaks was at New Hampshire avenue and T street. The water flooded nearby cel- lars and_menaced the foundations of houses. Pieces of cement and dirt were carried aloft by the column of water alnd strewn about the street in all direc- tions. Deputy Chief B. W. Weaver responded with fire apparatus. Employes of the District Water Department were sum- moned and temporarily repaired the | leak. ‘The other break occurred in front of 1011 S street. This one lacked the spectacular qualities of the one on New Hampshire avenue, but the volume of escaping water flooded several cellars. Two Drastic Dry Bills Filed.
