John McReady Avoids Death When Plane Crashes, June 24, 1924

Daring, Pluck and Skill

John McReady, who leaped from his machine when his engine went dead and thus saved his life, is a pretty good example of brains, daring and pluck.

When the folks saw his plane fall and burst into flames, they expected to find the charred bones of the valiant knight of the air who has performed almost impossible feats with his plane. Much to their amazement McReady walked into their midst, smiling and safe.

What will not the genius of man be able to accomplish eventually? From the editorial page of the Wilson Times, Tuesday, June 24, 1924
