    * CLARA ADAMS (b.1884-d.1971) known as the "first flighter" and the "maiden of maiden flights," was an aviatrix who set a variety of flying records. For example; Clara Adams was the first women as a ticketed passenger of the LZ-127 Graf Zeppelin to cross the Atlantic on its maiden return flight from North America to Germany along with the maiden flight of the LZ-129 Hindenburg.
    ** BERNARD McFADDEN (
    Bernarr Macfadden)
    (b.1868 -d.1955) was an American proponent of physical culture, a combination of bodybuilding with nutritional and health theories. He founded the long-running magazine publishing company Macfadden Publications (In the 20th century was the largest magazine publisher in the world). He was the predecessor of Charles Atlas and Jack LaLanne; together they shaped the American cultural trend of "obsession with diet, health and fitness". However, Macfadden himself thought it best "to live a wholesome, rational life, and to forget the body as much as possible."
    *** CARL EASTON WILLIAMS - Was a Magazine Editor and Writer on the subject of physical culture and worked many times for Bernard
    Mcfadden's publications.
