C. ut-of -tin S'JF arid Valentines Fended to Her on Jl'ings of raorances ove Afexico Ciry. THIS IS THE DAY I ARRIVED IN MEXICO. It began at 3:30 a.m. and ended after attending a performance of the Mexico symphony orchestra at the Palacio de Bellas Artes.

But perhaps 1 should begin with the night before, after having been groun-ed in Kansas City and having taken the Rocket for a day's train iiV to Dallas. We got there at 10 p.m. The Adolfus hotel was Jammed. Only by a miracle we were given a suite much too elegant, much too expensive but it was far better than sleeping in the lobby, as no less than a dozen girls (looked like a dancing unit) were doing when we passed through it again at a.m. A half hour earlier they had phoned to tell us the American Airlines flight to Mexico would originate from Fort Worth, to be dressed and ready to motor there (32 miles).

Also a warning "your reservation is subject to 'load'." We were to learn about that one later. It's Ktiil dark uhen we arrive at Fort Worth. The stars have romr out after a mild thunder storm. We are herded into a fino "international" waiting room, and then begins the question' inrj, worrying. We're the la-it two passengers to check in but first weights (baggage and passengers, added to crew ship and gasoline load), are being tabulated.

The machine clicks off the fig' urc and comes up with the verdict: "There's room for only one of you on the ship." IT IS THE CAPTAIN OF THE SHIP himself who saves the day coming in with the final report on weather and a strong tall wind that can lessen the gas load, allowing us both to go. Capt. A. li. Perkins I'll never forget his name.

And then we all go aboard. That is after every cent of American cash has been changed into pesos (they don't want our money), identification has been proved, tourist cards, tickets checked, bags opened for custom inspection, and passing through two small rooms where each of us has a private audience first with the United Slates military and second, with the Mexican military. Then, too, there's a brief slop in a waiting room I begin" to think it's the pleasantest place I was ever in where a hostess offers orange juice, coffee and sweet roll. I gulp everything, as the ship Is warming up and we're ready to take off. By now the morning star is giving way to the first streaks of dawn.

The motors arm throbbing. There's a rush down the runway and we're up in the air. Higher and higher we climb to 8,000 feet and settle down for a steady, comfortable ride that is to turn out to be probably the most thrilling I've ever made. THE SUN BURSTS UP in a huge fiery ball, sending a piercing through the ship's windows as if some sacred rite of the universe were taking place a magnificent symbol that the heavens and earth were in complete accord with God and all mankind. I look out to see the earth cozily tucked under a smooth gray blanket of cloud away from view.

The blanket lifts patches of brown and green appear, showing the Rio Grande valley under cultivation. In a moment we see the winding river Itself. It seems such a slender thread to separate our two countries. The International bridge at Laredo looks like a frail toothpick that acts as a connecting link. Now we're over the Mexico of dry desert and sagebrush.

We spot the Tan American highway which the captain tells us will be the passengers' guiding line all the way to Mexico City. I spot, too, the little towns and recall every detail of the first trip I made down this highway in '38. There's an only stop at Monterrey, but the airport is several miles north of town. Monterrey, I remember, had been a two-days' motor ride to Mexico City. Now I hear the captain say "We'll be in there in two hours and 35 minutes." It makes one think "today's distances must be measured only in air miles."
