BYRD ) AND HIS CREW BEGIN FLIGHT TO PARIS (lON'TIM ED FROM PAGE ONE) America’s position as over New Port, It. 1., indicating a speed of between 95 and 100 miles an hour. : At 7:25 A. M. a radio message from '• Byrd was received at the Radio station J’ at the plane's hangar. It said: '' “Passed Cape Cod few'miles left i Cape Cod light at 7:22 New York time. Misty and rainy. All well. Byrd.” It was calculated the plane was niak- ■, Ing 108 miles an hour by then. 1 A few minutes after the message, ■ from Byrd over Cape Cod was received ' The American Trans-Oceanic company s received from the S. S. Maiden, 10 miles northeast of the Cape. A message reporting the plane had jiassed it at 7:26 A. M. The message was relayed by the Radio corporation of America. ‘ The plane was encountering difficulties with its compasses when it was over the open sea half way between Cape Cod and Yarmouth, Nova Scotia, a radio message from Byrd, received at the hangar at Roosevelt field said. ' \ “Half way between Cape Cod aal Yarmouth. Out of sight of land, weath- ( er clearing slightly. Extra cans gas- , oline causing trouble with compn-ses. Hope they will not when they can be th' own over board —Byi d.“ The last sentence was taken to mean empty the cansTlnto his main tanks' eithei that Byrd hoped to be able to later, removing the difficulty. At 9:48 A. M. E. 1). T., radio stations near providence, R. I , repo:ted to the hangar that they had picked up from Byrd the following message: "please ask stations stand by. I am going to pump gas.” That was taken to mean that the compasses still weie misbehaving, anil that the commander had decided to tiansfef the contents of the s extra cans of gasoline to the now partially emptied main tanks se the cans could ! be tossed overboard. It was hoped the ....... 1,1 nr/xnorl <y *i «£

compasses would work properly as soon as the metal cans were discarded. The pumping, mechanics at the hangar said, would take an hour. The radio will not be used during the pumping because of fire. The Plane had been waiting for days on the six-foot mound of earth at the end of the Roosevelt field runway down which first Charles Lindbergh and Then Clarence Chamberlin and Charles Levine started their trans- ( Atlantic journeys. Its tail was bound 1 so the motors could get up full speed | before the plane was started down the ] runway, but the craft, impatient as its crew, tore itself loose from the rest.aiuing band before Mechanics could Icosen it and set out madly. it wobbled a little under thfe heavyload and then, as the wings caught the air, skimmed beautifully along the ground. Forty-eight seconds after it j clipped the bol. wht h held it fast, | the ptabt whbcls loft the ground aftel a run of 3,268 feet on earth. The four men waved farewell as the plane left the ground. A eiowd cheered, as similar crowds had cheered Lindbergh and Chamberlin. The plane rose steadily, easily, and headed for Europe and fame or disaster and possible tragedy. Imaginations were not fired as they

were by Lindljergh’s /flight, but the America crew was assured a hearty welcome. • Police, at the request of Herbert • Adams Gibbons, personal representative of Rodman Wanamaker, sponsor, of the flight, prepared to avoid repetition of the frenzied confusion that ' followed Lindbergh's landing. , Assurance was given that the field. at Le Bourget would be kept deJr and that no damage would be done to the plane by excited crowds. Paris Prepares Welcome 1 Paris, July 29. — (UP)’—Confident that Commander Richard E. Byrd and 1 his crew would traverse successfully i the trail blazed by Col. Charles Lind- ‘ bergh, France today prepared to greet I them and their plane. * o St. Paul Congregation I Gives Teacher A Vacation |

The congregation of St. Paul’s Lutheran church in Preble township ( has granted Professor R. Stolp a vacation until next September. Prof. Stolp and family have started on a vacation | motor trip, with southern Wisconsin as their objective point. During Prof.] Stolp’s absence, Arnold Werling. of Ossian, who is a second normal class student at the Lutheran Teachers college in Chicago, will preside at the pipe organ in St. Paul's church. However, next Sunday Fred Stoppenhagen of Cleveland," Ohio, will play the magnificent organ at the church. Prof. Stolp eipects to return home next September with increased vim and prepared to take care of his manifold duties as teacheh of St. Paul’s school. — ■ - — o F. M. Schirmeyer and H. B.

N.Y. TO LONDON AIR PASSENGERS TOFLYSAFELY I 1 Service To Be By Airship Instead Os Plane English Aviator Believes (By I. N’. S.) London.—While agreeing with Lind- > bergh and Chamberlin that a transI Atlantic air passenger service is seas- • ible and will become a reality In the near future, Sir Arthur Whitten . Brown, who with the late Sir John t Alcock made the first flight from east . to west across the Atlantic eight . years ago, believes that it will be by airship and not by airplane. Discussing the significance of the , Lindbergh and Chamberlin flights, Sir Arthur said: "Without being the least . dogmatic, I am certainly confident that within a short time, possibly a I very short time, we shall think no more of passengers flying regularly I from New York to London or Paris and vice versa than today we think ofYhem Aying regularly between London and Paris or London and Berlin. Prefers Airships "But,” he,added, "so far as one can ( anticipate the future, it seems to me I to indicate that a trans-Atlantic air J passenger service w ill be an affair of airships rather than airplanes. There is one real and ever present airplane risk, while negligible in flying across country, where a pilot can choose a landing place, would lead to disaster over the Atlantic, and that is engine trouble. Again, it a service is to be maintained on a commercial basis the airplanes that have crossed direct from America to Europe must be able to fly back from Europe to America. And we have still to wait for the pioneer flight that will show us that this is feasible.'

“Further, it is reasonable to expect to find pilots who are willing to go without sleep for thirty-six hours with the responsibility of the lives ot others in their charge. An additional pilot would mean carrying more gas or the margin of safety being reduced. Meet Less Obstacles “ seems to me that there are less obstacles to be overcome in jhe estabI lishment of an airship service. In the | first place, the airship is supported by the air, as a ship is supported by water. In an airship engine trouble I can be dealt with while the airship is still supported in and by the air. Serious engine trouble in an airplane ' means that it has got to come down. I ".What I envisage as most likely to ' happen in the near future, and what I forecast as the normal line of development. is the use of airship for long distance travel, with the airplane ’ astd as a subsidiary and feeding serv- ! i iw. -One canno; ignore the advantI ages the airships possesses in respect to long distance air travel.’.’ ——o Vance and Linn are arranging to start their mid-summer sale this week.
