Thrilling Crash in Air Climax of Houdini Picture Handcuff King Presents Array of.Sen. mations!

According to the story, ,Houd- ini iu an airplane is purauing a murd- erer, who is trying to escape in an- other machine. At a height of 3,000 feet Houdini is supposed to glide over the other machine, let himself down into the cockpit beside the murderer by means of a rope, and throttle him. All went well with the stunt, the two machines.circiing one above the other and a third, containing Director Willat and the photographer, about 100 yards away, until Houdini was just about to loose his hold on the rope. Then suddenly a gust of wind lifted the lower 'plane into the upper one, and their propellers locked. They dropped like rockets, revolving nose on nose, with Houdini still dangling on the rope and the two aviators making frantic efforts to con- trol their machines. Death seemed certain, Buta few hundred feet from the ground, with both propellere gone, oiled the airmen by a miracle, suc- ceeded in falling into a glide, and, though the other crashed nose -on into a field, the only injuries sustained were slight bruises.
