team OF AVIATORS !,
DEFIES fierce GALE
Johnstone and Hoxsey Go Up
for Altitude and Bring Down
Distance Record

NEW YORK, Oct 27.-Such are the
caprices of October weather that
Ralph Johnstone and Arch Hoxsey of
the Wright team of aviators went up
for altitude at Belmont park this
afternoon and brought down the rec
ord of the day for distance.
The fifth day of the international
aviation meet opened full of promise
and closed in a bowling wester that
filled the air with whirling autumn
leaves, slammed down the benches. In
the grandstand, ripped out the canvas
screens that bar the view of those who
have not paid, but hope to see, and
sent such a skirmish line of dust dane
ing around the track that the lamps
had to be lighted outside the hangers
for the mechanics to find their way
about. It was a furious end to a day
of postponements, disappointments and
scattered feats of the most daring air.
manship that has yet been witnessed
by an American crowd.
CUP DEFENDERS BALKY
Officially, flights for the Gordon Ben
nett elimination trials, to pick an Amer
lean team which shall defend the in
ternational trophy won at Rheims last
year by Glenn H CurtisS, opened at
9 o'clock this morning, but nobody
cared to come out for them in the wind
that was blowing.
AT half past l o'clock the special
prize of $4,000 offered by Thomas F.
Ryan for a flight from the field to the
Statue of Liberty and return. was
open to any aviator, but none of them
dared try it.
That narrowed the program down to
one hourly event for distance and altf-
tude. Latham, in an Antoinette mono-
plane, for distance, and Hoxsey and
Johnstone, of the Wright team, for al
titude, were the only ones to brave a
gale Of from 20 to 25 miles an hour.
tombstone and Hoxsey tried to set
their wings and soar into the gale
without effort, but they showed that
the way of an eagle in the air is still
one Of the things men do not UNDER
stand.
GALE BEATS ENGINES
They kept their poise beautifully, but
although the speed of the biplane they
We're flying is normally 35 miles an
hour, and their engines were running
wide open, they were pushed steadily
out of view and down over the edge
of the horizon. The upper gale they
were jamming must have been more
than 40 miles an hour, but neither was
willing to come down before the other
and they stuck it out until forced to
land by sheer compuIsion of the ele-
ments.
Both were driven miles off the
course. Word came from Hoxsey first,
that he had landed safely at Brent
wood, +. l., about 25 miles distant.
Johnstone was carried 55 miles to
Middle Island Village, L. L
For the first hourly distance event,
the only routine number remaining on
the program, the sole entrant was
Latham, in an Antoinette. He finished
the hour with only Ia laps, 21.7 miles,
in 55 minutes 24.50 seconds; and the
figures show how persistent was his
battle with the gale; but they can not
bring out his beautiful maneuvering.
