[[mid length line]] Two young women gave a masher a fight for his life last night at the corner of Byron and North Robey streets. They were Miss Edna Behm and Miss Cecelia Lucas, both 18 years of age, and living at 1916 Eddy street. The masher, who is described as being about 30 years old, fled to escape further punishment and possible hat pin stabs. The girls were returning from church when they noticed a man in the shadow of a tree near the corner. They paid little attention to him until he started to walk toward them. When within a few feet of the girls he darted towards Miss Behm, grabbed her around the waist and attempted to kiss her. She shielded her face with on hand and with the other struck him several blows in the face. Miss Lucas proved even a better fighter than her friend. With both arms free she scratched and punched the man's face. Miss Lucas held on long enough to give him a few extra punches, but Miss Behm was ready to five up the struggle at the first sign of retreat on the part of the masher.

[[short line]] Pestiferous aviators buzzing around are beginning to make life miserable for Grant park policemen. Following the arrest of Farnum Fish for alighting on the lake front green without a permit last week, Max Lillie, another of the species, was twice detained by the protectors of the park and air above for the same offense yesterday. "We'll not have this park made a roosting perch for any kind of strange bird that happens to want to squat, feather or canvas," said Sergeant Hollie, who headed the band of bluecoated hunters that first captured the aerial intruder. Lillie's infraction of park regulations occurred in connection with the four-day aviation meet at the Cicero flying field and the opening of the Columbia Yacht club season. He left the field without the permission of the management, and neglected to secure permission for a place to alight near the clubhouse in Grant park. Young Woman in Machine. In the seat beside him on his trip was the daring young Miss Katherine Stinson, a pupil at the flying field. Being warned by the management that if he left the field and flew across Chicago his license would be taken from him, Lillie said he would go around the city. Hence his course went from the field on the western fringe of the city, far to the south, along the Indiana line and north over Jackson park to Grant park, where the two landed gracefully early in the afternoon.
