Flying Patrol NORFOLK, Va. (AP) ? Motor* cycle Officer Jimmy Squires en vies the man on the flying trapeze who flew through the air with the greatest of ease. Squires just flew through the air. His first flight came when an automobile struck his motorcycle broadside. Seconds later he saw a truck bearing down, threw up bis leg to keep the truck from crush ing it and took off on another ten foot flight. This took him into the path of another truck. "If I ever broke out in a cold sweat it was then." he said. He said the truck driver must have put the brake pedal to the floor. He could feel the front wheel against his arm when it stopped and backed up. Squires escaped serious injury but had some cuts and bruises.
