“We enjoyed the flight, but the first three days were the worst,” Mr. Baxter said. “After that it was pretty easy until the last three days. They wore us down.”

first remark when he stepped from the plane. The flier said they decided to land yesterday when their arms and legs became too stiff to operate the ship properly. Earlier they had reported a knock in the 55-horsepower motor of their Piper Cub monoplane, but ground crew workers said after the plane landed that motor and ship were in good condition, Mr. Baxter and Mr. McDaniels said they selected 6:38 as the time of their landing because at that time they would have been aloft exactly eight days longer than the Moody brothers of Springfield, IIl.,, who earlier this year set the endurance flying mark for light planes. The Muncie pilots’ 535-hour mark exceeds by nearly 200 hours the Moody brothers record of 343 hours and 46 minutes. Mr. ‘Baxter and Mr. McDaniels were approximatel 70 hours behind two Californi%

The, Western fliers were reported still aloft today.

Different Type Planes

The Hoosiers said they had been informed by the C. A.A, that their record - would be accepted to supplant the Mocdy brothers’ mark and that the Califoriafis’ attempt was in a different class. The Californians

were flying a light seaplane.

Neither Mr. Baxter nor Mr. McDaniels appeared greatly fatigued by their long flight. They had averaged slightly less than six hours sleep a night since they began their flight and both said they wanted some sleep more than anything else. They had hoped to exceed the endurance record of 653 hours and 43 minutes for all types: of planes. This record- is held by the Key brothers of Meridian, Miss.

RADIATOR IS BLAMED IN DEATH OF BABIES

PERTH AMBOY, N. J, Oct. 24

ing -a faulty radiator for the release of steam which asphyxiated five of six babies in the Perth Am-

boy Hospital nursery yesterday was to be turned over to Prosecutor Charles Morris today. : The accident, according to R. C. Hunt, licensed heating engineer, apparently occurred when a badly worn radiator valve patched with adhesive tape .blew out. He said he found that the thread of the air valve was ‘very badly worn” and that it had “little. or no holding power with the thread in the radiator.” Two pieces of adhesive tape were attached to the valve, according to Mr. Hunt, and “there were particles on the radiator on each side of the hole where the valve was attached.” Mr. Hunt said that “in my opinion the valve could be dislodged either by a jar of the radiator or by normal pressure carried in the heating system.” The accident was discovered by the nurse in charge who carried the unconscious babies out of the room. Twd of them were revived, but one died last night from effects of the steam.

CYCLE PATROLMAN ON JOB AFTER 3D SPILL

‘Motorcycle Patrolman Lawrence Bourke, who received face lacerations when he was thrown from his machine. yesterday for the third time in a year, was back on the job today patrolling the parkways. Patrolman Bourke was treated at City Hospital after his machine skidded and threw him into loose gravel in the 2300 block, Brookside Parkway. He is assigned to the Park Board.
