Endurance Fliers Take It Easy At Swank Hotel
Hollywood, April 27 — (U.P.)—Bill Barris and Dick Riedel began a week's vacation with their wives at a swank Hollywood hotel today in a shower of praise and rewards for their new world endurance flight record.
Ten thousand persons crowded the tiny airport at nearby Fuller-ton, Calif., Tuesday as they landed their little Aeronca monoplane after 1008 hours and two minutes of non-stop flight. Later 15,000 watched the fliers, their families and ground crew parade through the town.
Then they were whisked to Hollywood for dinner and a television and radio show. Similar engagements will follow during the week.
messages of congratulations poultry. A Hollywood syndicate was reported biding for screen rights to the flight. Rep. Dewey Short, (R-Mo.) said he would ask President Truman to congratulate the men. The Aeronica company promised them a brand new plane.
"it's wonderful," said Riedel. "We never dreamed of this."
For their first dinner after six weeks in the air, Barris and Riedel ordered filet mignon, mashed potatoes, green salad, apple pie and coffee. Then they settled back, lighted cigarettes and had a couple of drinks—two stimulants they didn't allow themselves during the flight.
"All we want to do is take it easy," they said. "Our plans don't go any farther than that right now." But they will get haircuts. Both men had crew cuts when they started the flight but landed wearing shaggy manes.
Riedel, 34, said he and his wife would take their 10-year-old son Dick, Jr. to Hot Springs, Ark., next week. Publicity from the flight brought the boy, an arthritis victim, an offer of free treatment there. Barris, 35, also hopes to get enough money to get his year-old son Steven an eye operation.
An oil company already has given the pilots $5,000 and they hope to get more from endorsements. A popular subscription drive and a $1,500 gift from the Fullerton Chamber of Commerce wiped out a $4,500 debt they incurred on three previous unsuccessful record attempts.
Barris and Riedel logged more than 75,000 miles since they took off from Fullerton March 15, making a round trip to Miami, Fla., "to break the monotony." On April 14 they passed the decade-old mark of 728 hours set by Wes Caroll and Clyde Schliepper of Long Beach, Calif., and while they were at it they stayed in the air 11 days and 18 hours more
"The last week was the toughest part of all." Riedel said. "But when we flew over the field and saw the terrific crowd there to greet us, our spirits picked up enormously."
