Adjutant Raoul Lufbery of New York, premier "ace' and fighting air. man of the Lafayette escadrille, re- gently brought down his eleventh "omcial' enemy plane in single handed fight against five Germans.
 It took the New York fighter just twenty-five shots to shatter the wings of the adversary plane nearest to him, the German whirling down from tho 15. 900 feet altitude to death. He ex- changed shots with tho remaining four, and then when more Lafayette fliers came to his rescue the enemy quartet hurriedly sped away.
 Lufbery was the guest of the French general commanding the Sixth army, to which the Lafayette esca- drille will shortly be attached. Tho latest exploit of the Lafayette squad ron as whole was a remarkably suc- cessful bombing expedition over enemy reserve barracks at a point six miles deep in the German lines.
