Former Minneapolis Girl Plans to Fly Warplane. A former Minneapolis girl who's husband is a flying combatant in the Spanish revolution hopes to be in the news soon herself as a war aviatrix. She is Mrs. Eddie Schneider, wife of one of the American pilots who earlier this month left for Spain to fight assumedly with the loyalists. When she lived in Minneapolis Mrs. Schneider was Miss Gretchen Hahnen. Mrs. Schneider informed her aunt, Mrs. D. B. Ransburg, 4229 Stevens avenue, she will leave for Paris Saturday. There she will watch her husband's exploits shooting down enemy planes at $1,000 per head. If the opportunity develops she may join her husband side to fly a war plane herself. She also is a pilot. Mrs. Schneider left Minneapolis five or six years ago to fly in the east. Mrs. Schneider, whose mother lives in Los Angeles, has a brother, Robert Hahnen of St. Paul.
