There was very active artillery
fighting last night south of St Quentin

American Aviator MISSING.

ASSOCIATED Press Correspondent
Grand Headquarters with the British
Army on the French Front, April 2S.-
The disappearance after an aerial en-
gagement Of Serg. James r. McCon-
nell, the American aviator, calls at.
tention once more to the brilliant work
Of the Lafayette squadrilla, composed
entirely Of American volunteers except
the two French officers in charge.
Since it's formation last year the
squadriAa, whose official designation
10 N-124, has undergone some changes
|of personnel. The new men, however,
are living we'll up to the traditions OF
those who have passed thru its ranks,
some Of whom have made the great
sacrifice" for France. while others
have had to retire owing to wounds
or injury.
By their daring and skill the young
Americans have won not only the ad-
miration OF their French comrades but
also the wholesome respect Of the
German airmen. Up to date at least
thirty enemy machines are known to
have fallen before the American corps.
The members Of the corps, which is
purely fighting unit whose duty is
the protection of observation and
bombardiDg squadrilla, live together in
their cantonment at the front more
on terms as clubmen interested in the
same branch Of sport than like mill
tary body. In fact, the combination
is known AZ the winged club"
Many Of the members have been
decorated with medals and crosses for
their exploits in Alsace, around verdun
and ON the Somme. Their desire to be
in the midst Of tho hottest fighting Is
generally gratified and the squadrilla
is always to be found in the vicinity Of
greatest activity.
