Farley of the 94th Pursuit Squadron, at Selfridge Field, will re- celve the coveted Chaney Award for saving his superior officer from death in a burning airplane. The act of valor in which Pvt. Farley, although injured himself, pulled Second Lieut. William H. Drum, Air Corps Re- | serve, to safety, occurred cn December 6, 1932, near Pontiac, Mich. Lieut.
