Miss Mary Davis Accompanies Gustav

London to Paris Tuesday.

limited Press Leased Wire Service.1
BOLOGNE, April 2.-Aviator Gustav
Hamel, carrying Miss Mary Davis, as
a passenger, successfully crossed the
English channel in his aeroplane to-
day, starting from-London and flying
by way of Dover to Cape Grisnez.
Hamel flew at great height and
failed to report his landing for some
time with the result that there were
grave fears that he had met with an
accident. Miss Davis enjoys the dis
tinction of being the first woman to
fly across the channel.
The aviators descended at Amble-
touse where they had luncheon and
then reported their arrival to the
aero club here which had been wait
ing for the aviators.
LONDON, April 2.-The first wo-
man to essay the crossing of the Eng
lish channel by aeroplane was Miss
Mary Davis who, riding with Gustav
Hamel, the noted aviator, started
from here at 9:3S and at 11:15 was
reported as having passed over Dow
er, headed for the French shore, fly
ing very high and fast.
The couple started from the avia-
ton grounds at Heldon, near here. It
was Hamers intention, if conditions
were right to steer directly for Paris
after passing Dover and If possible
create a new records for distance and
not for speed.
