All Glass I Men Called, Other Boards
Must Aid.

in the state, and when this call came
they had only forty-four class / men,
while they were required to furnish

made up by spreading II over the

Potter left a North Sea station in
a British sea plane and steered due
eastward until about eight miles from
Hindenlight. Another machine accom-,
panied Potter and kept its position to
the star board through its action. Two
Boche planes were sighted, both port
heading toward the British machines
Suddenly both the British planes one
hundred yards apart crashing down
upon the nearest German plane. Fire
was opened by both in close range. Fl
nally Potter's machine was jammed
Two more hostile planes then appear
ed overhead and began an attack with
vigor Then both of the British ma
, chimes turned toward the west and

Potter was close upon his compan
ion and dove within one hundred feet
of the water. Both the machines Their

close side by side for several minutes
under the continuous volley from the
rear. Four other planes of the enemy
made their appearance in the V shape

planes in action, four We're attacking
