SNAGS STRUCK BY SEAJLIERS Strict Rules May Cut Down Hawaii Race Field. By United Press SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. o.—Unforseen difficulties today faced some of the entrants in the Dole prize Hawaiian flight and it was possible the entire group of fifteen may not be able to take-off Friday. Os the fifteen entered, only eight are in the San Francisco bay region. The others were said to be either en route here or ready, to start. The Federal ruling that each plane must have a minimum capacity of 400 gallons of gasoline sent at least two of the aviators scurrying about to add additional storage tanks. Two other aviators, it was said, had not obtained planes at this late hour. It is probable that one or two more of the seven planes that have not arrived may get here too late for the official starting time, noon, Aug. 12. further cutting the number of actual contestants. At least one of the entrants had not given hjs plane an initial test. Other pilots and mechanics today were making final tests to see that everything is all right.
