THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

FEARED HALT AT RICHMOND. FLIER REVEALS Maxwell Tells The Times of Plans He Made for Landing Plane. (Continued From Page One) they probably would return to the field by 3 that afternoon. "I told ’em. ‘The sooner, the better— ther.’s that field at Richmond.’ ” . ieut. Maxwell recalled, coughing because of the injuries to his chest. Lieut. Maxwell had planned to visit Selfridge Field, military flying center at Mt. Clemens, Mich., where a cousin is stationed. At the Detroit port, however, he met Dick Knox, pilot for the Prest-O-Lite Cc„ Inc., here and the two men had luncheon together at the field. It was 2:30 when Lieut. Maxwell began to warm up his engine, he said, and Miss Mendenhall arrived at the field about that time, followed shortly by her father and Dr. Carmack. “It was rougher than hell when we got up top again, and I adjusted the safety belts and told ’em to put ’em on," the flier declared. "Then, as we neared Toledo, I said, I’m going to stop here to get some gas. If we run into rough weather. I want enough gas to get to Indianapolis.’ ” Draw Map of Airport Miss Mendenhall seemed happy and interested at this point, according to Lieut. Maxwell, who said she was taking notes on a small pad, asking the names of the towns as they slipped underneath the plane. "It became dark w'hile we still were north of Lima, 0.,” Lieut. Maxwell said, "and we headed straight for Richmond.” Then propping himself up in the bed. the flier drew' a map of the Richmond airport and explained his confidence that he would make a .safe landing. "You can see I had this thing ail figured out in my mind." he declared He pointed to anew road heading into the port in the northeast direction. and entering it at the W'est boundary, approximately w’here the crash took place. To the south of this the FERA men had been extending the south boundary by fill-ing-in depressed ground. ‘No Trick,’ He Believed His calculations had convinced him, the flier said, that it "w'ould be no trick at all" to land if the wind w'as from the south. The w'ind, however, was from the west. Anticiating this in the morning, on the flight to Detroit, Lieut. Maxw'ell has suggested that Mr. Hammer park on the eastern boundary with his headlights on and had spotted the point where the new road ended in the airport. “I spotted the east boundry, lost altitude and started to circle the field." Lieut. Maxw'ell explained to The Times. “I realized at that time I had overshot the field and gave her the gun to circle again. As I did that I would have bet anything I had the field in my pocket.’ "All of a sudden, my landing lights showed a tree. I gave her the gun to get up. Then came the crash. There was a flare of flame, which illuminated the dash board.” Hit Two Trees, He Thinks Lieut. Maxw’ell believes he hit tw'o trees. The Times’ inspection of the airport today show's that actually

he hit the top of an apple tree, about 40 feet tall. The two blows probably came because of two branches. "Next." continued Lieut. Maxwell. "I saw the ground with my landing lights. I thought I had done a com- i plete roll.” This was not the case. The plane, j leaving its right upper wing in the; tree top. made an almost perfect | landing, afire. 75 feet of the tree. "The next thing I knev I was lying outside the ship.’ continued Lieut. Maxwell. “I thought J. was fishing down in Florida underneath 1 a terribly hot sun. I pulled myself up. trying to get away from the ! heat. Then. I realized that the plane was one fire." Pulled Back From Flames Lieut. Maxwell repeated witnesses' stories that he had struggled to get' to his feet to aid those trapped in the burning plane, all of whom, he believes, were dead before it hit the ground. Jean Smith and James Burke, farmers living near the scene of the crash, reached his side and, while Mr. Smith pulled Lieut. Maxwell back from the flames, Mr. Burke made a futile effort to help those in the plane. He was driven back by the flames, but he believes that Miss Mendenhall and one of the men may sti‘l have been alive. "The only thing I can believe is that there must be a break in the coloring of that road which threw me off my calculations.” Lieut. Maxwell said in the hospital today. "This made me overshoot the field." Theory Is Possible The Times’ investigation of the field revealed that, because of two colors in the surfacing of the road, this was not only possible, but probable. The flier answered suggestions j that he should have used the flaresi he carried in his plane with the statement that these never were used except in emergencies and that his landing lights w'ere illuminating the field satisfactorily. H. A. Knipp. airport day attendant. told The Times that Lieut. Maxwell must have missed the fence on the northeast corner of the field by only a few feet after he overshot the field. Funeral Rises Held "Lovely and plei iant ih their lives, and in death undivided.” With those words the Rev. O. H. Fclgcr. pastor of the First Friends’ Church, comforted friends and relatives of Dr. Arthur M Mendenhall

Have you found the' / SUNNY PACKAGE on your grocer’s shelf? X / / It’s a delicious ready-to-eat cereal. Millions of Americans have fonnd Kellogg’s All-Bran a safe, effective means of correcting common constipation—the kind caused by lack of “bulk” in the menu. Laboratory measurements show that All-Bran provides “bulk” to aid elimination. All-Bran also supplies vitamin B and iron. The “bulk” in this tempting cereal is more effective than that fonnd in fruits and vegetables because it resists digestion better. Within the body, it absorbs moisture, and forms a soft mass. Gently, this cleans out the intestinal waste. Isp’t this natural food better than taking patent medicines? Two tablespoonfuls of All-Bran daily are usually sufficieni. Chronic cases with each meal. If this fails to give relief, see yonr doctor. Enjoy All-Bran as a cereal, or cook into appetizing recipes. Kellogg’s All-Bran contains much more needed bulk than „„y & part-bran products.

and Miss Evelyn Mendenhall, his daughter, at funeral services for them today at the Flanner & Buchanan Mortuary. 25 W. Fall Creekblvd. “Both she father, as a physician, and the daughter, as a newspaper writer, were in professions that made them know of the suffering of mankind." the pastor said. "Isn’t it wonderful to be so valuable to society that the swiftness of air travel is necessary!” Following the custom of the Friends’ Church, there was a period of silent prayer. The caskets were identical, the father's draped in an American flag and the daughter's banked with flowers. The chapel was filled with mourners. Burial was to be at 3:30 this afternoon at Winchester.
