again thrown into a state of conster-
nation as the result of a special
meeting of the Board of School Esti-
mate held this morning wherein the
actions taken by this latter body on
June 22, advising to the Board of
Aldermen the erection of a new
school on Hall avenue and an addi-
ton to the present high school, were
both revoked by majority vote of
three to two.
Upon the advice of the city attor-
ney the special meeting was called.

tions sent in by the Board of Educa-
ton, requesting the new projects,

j. s. AIR PLANE
FALLS IN BAY
Pilot is Not Injured in Drop
at Keyport- --CIimbed
on Wing
[By Evening News Correspondent !

kEYPORT, July IA govern
ment air plane in passing over Key
port about 4:30 o'clock last night
was forced to come down, owing to
engine trouble. and as there was no
suitable landing field it made nose
dive into the waters of the bay. Tie
pilot, Richard Paige. was rescued by
climbing out on the wing of the plane
and remaining there until picked up
in boat by Captain Stephen Haff.
1t could not be learned this morn
ing whether or not the plane was
carrying mail at the time and If so
what happened to it.
Luckily the water was not deep
where the plane struck or else the
accident might have been fatal, the
pilot having but little chance of saw
ing himself.
The water is only about six feet
deep off the old New Jersey steam
boat dock where the plane struck
and as result much of the struc-
ture Of the machine is out of the
water. The plane does not appear
to be damaged very much outside
Of a broken propeller as it dove
nose first into the mud, sticking
there.
Many thronged to the shore this
morning to look at the machine and
learn what steps were going to be
taken to recover it from the water.
Pilot Paige is we'll known at the
Aeromarine plant. situated here,
and has been given the assistance
of capable mechanics and officials at
that plant in preparing to save the
machine.
Efforts were being made early this
afternoon to raise the plane from the
river by means of derrick on
barge which was brought to the scene
this morning. Owing TO the light con-
struction of the plane this work was
necessarily progressing slowly in or
der that the craft would not be
damaged any more.
1t is reported that the airplane
landed at the Aero Marine landing
field once or twice yesterday and at
the time of the mishap to its engines
the pilot was flying low over the
borough. Realizing that he could
not make landing on the ground.
the pilot steered his machine for
the water and thus saved himself and
the airplane from serious injury.
Paige is considered an excellent flyer
by those intimate with the flying
profession.
