NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 3, 1930. AVIATRIX TELLS OF EXPERIENGES Gale Blew Her From Course, Mrs. Keith-Miller Sags Miami, Fla, Dec. 3 (UP)—Mrs. J. M. Keith-Miller's story of the cir- cumstances surrounding her unex- pected landing on Andros Island in the Bahamas was brought here last night by John Liggett, one of her financial backers, from Nassau, where he intervicwed the Austral- jun flier. Liggett accompanied Capt. W. N. Lancaster, Mrs. Keith-Miller's busi- ness representative, to Nassau by plane yesterday but returned alone. Mra. Miller gave the count of her experience: “I am most unhappy about my- ®elf. As an experienced flier T feel ashamed to think I failed to reach | my objective. Those who suggested might, for publicity purposes, following ac- | that 1 do | such a thing, are despicable. I hope my reputation as a sportswom- an is good enough o refute such as that. Gale Interferes “Contrary to reporis that were current, I took off with a favorable weather report and flew on the | compass course which was in abso- lute conformity for one hour. At the end of that time a terrific gale from the west carried me far to the east. | “Visibility was good all the time and heavy storm clouds hung over- head. I wenl down close to the | water to try to check the direction | of the wind. It then occurred to me | that T might be in the Gulf o Florida. “Climbing 7,000 feet I stayed up | about five hours until I saw pale green water underneath so I new I| must be near land. A haze devel- | oped with squally weather east and west. Two fishing boats were an- vhored, in smooth water below. These T circled hoping the men on hoard could indicate the dircction to Miami. The colored crew did not comprehend so I just continued my course, saw land and thought it was Florida, as my map tallied with the surrounding country. Gas Runs Low “The gas was running low and 1 had to land. I came down with- out apparent damage. 1 walked 16 miles to the telegraph station at Mangrove Bay to let cveryone know I was safe. “But I-found the working. The sca for any boat to 1 the nearecst point of #0 1 had to dclay abated.” Mrs, Miller, Liggett “pancaked” her plane Andros Island without injury to herself. She was very stiff from the long walk to the tclegraph station, however. A fisherman named Cavill, | an Australian who claimed to have neld the world swimming cham- | pionship more than a quarter of a century ago, took Mrs. Miller (o Nassau in his boat | Frances wires were not s too rough ave for Nassau, communication, until the storm said to carth on and e | {2 POLISH RESIDENTS GOING BACK T0 EUROPE Becond Exodus From City, Second | Largest of Its Kind, to Take Place Soon.
