Woman at Air Meet --- In 1916 Ruth Law astounded the world by flying from Chicago to New York in five hours and forty minutes. Last Week she observed the twenty-fourth anniversary of the Dole Race to Honolulu by boarding a TWA Constellation for Detroit--the second commercial airliner she has ridden in twenty-five years. Miss Law, who lives in San Francisco, is in Detroit for the annual meeting of the National Association of Aeronautics. Her Chicago-New York flight set a non-stop solo flying record. Miss Law explained she has flown only twice in the last quarter century because it made her husband, the late Charles Oliver, nervous to have her around planes. ---------- Crash Follows Ice Cream Burps LOGANSPORT (Ind.), Aug. 19.--A new excuse-- and ice cream hangover--got 76 year old Joseph Sylvester the minimum fine--$1--on a reckless driving charge.
