The issue also features a story involving the characters Penny, Tod, and Cora, wherein Tod encounters a sinister masked figure and Penny is threatened while a precious ring is stolen. Additionally, the anthology includes a story about young Tom Potter and Mary-Belle preparing for a journey to Philadelphia to visit relatives, with complications arising from family considerations about leaving their community.
This OCR text contains two separate stories: "Champs of the Air," a one-page non-fiction piece about aviators Roger Q. Williams and Captain Charles Nungesser, followed by "The Adventures of Bill Handy," a multi-page adventure story. Since the assignment requests a synopsis for "Champs of the Air" only, here is the blurb: Roger Q. Williams pioneered stunt flying from 1908 onward, becoming the first to stand on a plane's wing during a loop and to transfer between a moving auto and aircraft, while French Air Service Captain Charles Nungesser earned his reputation as one of World War I's most colorful pursuit pilots, credited with 41 victories and famously carrying a one-pound cannon aboard his ship to the astonishment of his fellow fliers.
