A Workman's Dizzy Highwire Feat in Turbulent Wind
Me San tr theo Chroniele reports on Ona Wilson a daredevil climber who threads a rope 400 feet above careworn strands of the Tay Counties Power Company towers. He balances on a three by Hirer platform, sways with every gust, and works about eight hours daily.

Wilson endures fearsome exposure atop a narrow platform and rope rig, the gaze of a stunned crowd, and the risk of catastrophe as he performs for onlookers and clients alike.
