Capt. Lowell II. Smith, with Lieut. r.
w. Drueglcs as his observer, was the
first of the eastbound fiiers TO reach
Reno, the second control station from
the Golden Gate. In all, fourteen planes
reached the Nevadan city and set out
for Battle Mountain. 1s9 miles away.
Smith, who few n DH-l Biuebird. had
flown over the Sierra Nevada Mountains
before and knew his way. Only Ave
airplanes are known to have reached
SsIduro. the control beyond Battle Noun
tain, in safety. Salduro is SIS miles
from San Francisco and 100 miles from
Salt Lake City.
The only Spad airplane in the race
had bad luck and failed to reach Bing-
hamton. Lieut.. r. L. Vaughan, the pi-
lot. originally was disqualified because
OF q slight eye defect from flying. but
last minute appeal TO Gen. Menoher, air
chief, won him permission to enter the
race. He started out at 10 :56. the
seventeenth plane to leave Mineola. but
landed at Glendale. N. Y. a little more
than an hour later. Apparently he lost
his course. for he was reported at p. NJ.
at Scranton. Pa, far south Of the FIRST
control station.
Another fiier who lost his way was
Lieut. r. c. Kirkpatrick. who few a
DH-4. Kirkpatrick had trouble with his
compass after leaving Binghamton and

Before tho start Of the race Brig
Gen. Mitchell. chief of the training and
operations group OF the air service,
pointed out that II was no mere race.
but that II was intended as an expert

the comparatively short distances on the
western front would behave In the great
stretches of the United States, how,
-apidly 1t was possible TO establish land
ing fields across the country and how
meteorological data could be rapidly Sc
cured. The race was intended to rouse
interest in aviation and to show the
different types Of aircraft to the country
