LADY BAILEY INTERVIEWED CLOTHES CHIEF DIFFICULTY. LONDON, Jan. 16. The Royal Aeronautical Society in congratulating Lady Bailey on her record flight, pays tribute to her as one of the gallant women pioneers of aeronautics. £ In art interview, she said: “The chief difficulty was clothes, for which there was little accommodation. She was forced to buy changes as she went. 'She added: “Some were distinctly queer; in fact, I have reached London with the queerest collection of clothes I have ever had. Really there's nothing in flying. There never was any question of getting lost wjth such excellent maps, although in large stretches of dense forest it is necessary to fly by compass.’’
