Nine Men Leap From Army Plane Washington, Sept. 24.?Nine men with parachutes leaped one after another today from a navy transport airplane soaring high over the Anacostia flying field and all landed safely. The performance was arranged as a test of the rapidity with Which a large airplane might be em-, ptied- in case of emergency for military purposes. The last of the nine freed himself from the plane 18 seconds after the' first had jumped. Experiments show that light gray, worn by West Point cadets, is the color first lost to sight in the field. Scarlet is the second least conspicuous color, with dark gray, blue and green following in the order named. In target practice scarlet has been found the most difficult color to hit, while, under the rays of an electric light, light green is almost invisiblo. Cattle Killed by Lightning Charlie T.
