KILLED AT DENVER

With one wing tip of his ma
chine crumpled like piece of
paper, Ralph Johnstone, the bril-
liant young aviator. holder of
the world S altitude record, drop
ped like a plummet from height
of 800 feet into the enclosure at
Overland park aviation field last
Friday and was instantly killed.
When the spectators, crowded
about the enclosure, reached him.
his body lay beneath the engine
of the biplane, with the white
planes that had failed him in his
time of need, wrapped about it
like a shroud. Nearly every bone
in his body was broken He had
gambled with death once too often
but he played the game to the
end, fighting coolly and grimly to
the last second to regain con
troll of his broken machine.
Fresh from his triumphs at
Belmont park, New York, where
he had broken the worlds re
cord for altitude with a flight of
9.ll4 feet. Johnstone attempted
to give the thousands of spectat
ors who stood with craned necks
to watch him, an extra thrill with
his most daring feat, the spiral
ii'o which has made the Wright
aviators famous. The specta
tors got their thrill but it cost
Johnstone his life.
