INMORE THAN A QUARTER CENTURY

in the airplane-driving business, I'vemet a lot of clowns. But the only pilot I've ever known who got serious

enough about being a clown to adopt aname ("Jingles") is Capt. Bill Tischler of Los Angeles.

When Tischler checked out as first

 pilot of United's new Boeing 727 trijetsover a year ago, he became the young-est jet captain on the airline-at 40.But this is not to say that William F.Tischler, who hails from a town witha name that sounds like a hatching place for pilots (Eagle Pass, Texas), issome kind of a youngster in the flying business. He isn't. He just started young-soloing in April of 1939 after onlyfive and one-half hours of instructionat the tender age of 15.

By now the Tischlers had moved 

way up north to Temple, Texas (whereBill's mother still owns and managesa restaurant), and young Willie was building up flying hours, operatingfrom a local cow pasture. He didn'tactually lie about his age to get his private license at 16; he just clowned around a little whenever an officialman would ask an official question.He got his commercial license at 17and became a licensed instructor at 18.

In any event, when the Large War 

really got going, Bill had all his licensesand was instructing Women Army Ser-vice Pilots (WASPs) at Avenger Field,Sweetwater, Texas. "I t was tough duty,"Bill says, "but necessary. We had totrain these gals to fly for the FerryCommand so they could free Army

 pilots for active duty." The whole thingwas a little unfair, as Bill recalls. "Therewere 500 pretty girl students at thefIeld-and only 150 male instructors."

As far as the flying was concerned,"it was always a challenge to anticipatewhat some of the bird-girls would donext; however, some. were better than

male pilots. There was never a dullmoment." Tischler survived the WASP program and, at the end of the war, joined Pennsylvania Central Airlines,which became Capital, which merged with United. Already a veteran pilot,

he became a captain at an almost in-credible early age of 23.

Then Tischler began bumping intodoors, stumbling over footstools and missing chairs when he sat down. Notthat he was coming into early atrophy.

 No, as one newspaper account noted,Tischler was still "dark and handsomewith trigger reflexes, an infallible senseof timing and perfect physical coord-ination. "

It was just that another part of his

 persanality was coming to the surface-that of "Jingles the Clown."As a member of the Syria Temple

(Pittsburgh, Pa.), Ancient Arabic Order of the Nobles of the Mystic Shrine,Bill Tischler began spending his freetime helping and entertaining sick children. He is now with the clowntroupe of the Woodland Hills ShrineClub in California. ''I've been familiar with poverty and suffering all the wayto the bottom of the barrel," Bill told a reporter. "I've experienced it all over 

 North and South America in manyways. When I was 10 years old, I wasshining shoes on the streets of Temple,Texas. It is sad to see suffering or seechildren who can't enjoy what mychildren enjoy.

"So, I'm a clown. And you'd under-stand it completely if you saw thelaugh on the face of a little girl whohas hooks at the ends of her armswhere both hands should be."

More than a million children are

entertained each year by the Shrineclowns, in the many Shriners' hospitalsfor erippled children and in the famed Shrine Circuses that play coast to coastannually. In addition, Bill also findshis non-flying schedule full of dates to perform at other hospitals, schools,settlement houses and benefit enter-tainments from New York to Hawaii.He works up his own routines, hasfully developed the unique personality

of "Jingles" and has hand-made the

two complete costumes it takes to keephim in business.

Tischler lives now in Santa Ana,Calif., with his wife, Roberta, sons,

John, 14, Eric, 5, and daughter LaurieLynn, 17. In addition to working hard at his clown act, he enjoys carpentryand woodwork, fishing, boating, hunt-ing and archery, golf, horseback riding,camping, scuba.skin diving, and water-skiing.

Bill Tischler's ambition in the air is"to fly the biggest and fastest airplane

 built," and he calls the Boeing 727he's flying now "the nearest thing wehave, in design, to the supersonic jetswe'll be flying in a few years."

Captain Tischler is young enough toanticipate flying the supersonic trans- ports for a number of years.

He'll be a good SST pilot, too, for he's a very serious guy in an airplane.You'd never know people often callhim "Jingles."

"Clowns," he says, "don't belongin cockpits." 0
