eiPLANE DIVES INTO CROWD.
Presence of Mind of Aviator Prob
ably Saves fiany Lives.

Asbury Park, N J. Walter A.
Brookins, who holds the worlds al
titude aeroplane record, and seven
spectators were seriously injured at
the Inteflaken field when Brookings,
In new type of Wright biplane, at
tempted to effect landing In a high
wind. after making a sensational fight.
George Burnett, fourteen years old,
living at Spring Lake, N. j., was
pinned under the wreckage and is dy-
ing at the Long Branch hospital as
the result of fractured skull, dislo-
Gated hip and internal injuries.
Brookins, although pinned under the
heavy motor, escaped with broken
nose and Commissions about the head
and body. The accident might have
cost many lives, if 1t had not been
for Brookins' presence of mind. In
order to inaugurate Asbury Parks
aviation meet on schedule time, he
went up shortly after four O'Clock in
a gusty wind blowing at the rate OF
80 miles an hour. AS he was about
to descend with one of his spectacular
spiral turns he lost control of the
machine. Being directly over the
grand stand the machine dived for
the panic-stricken crowd.
Realizing that the result would be
fI.ghtful If the craft fell on the spec
tators, caught like rats in trap,
Brookins managed to swing the ma
chine around at an angle still more
acute. But the aeroplane was too
close to the ground to make the
maneuver entirely successful. It..
barely cleared the heads of the wildly
hysterical crowd, when it smashed
into the grand stand at the end of
the field The groups of attaches
there were unable to escape over a
high wire fence designed to keep out
the crowd. All of them were pinned
under the wreckage.
