AviatQ fss Laura
 Cromwell Killed
Fell 1000 Feet With Plane at Mitchell FieId-HeId Loop the-Loop Records.

Mineola, N. Y, June 5.-Miss Laura Cromwell, holder of the loop the loop record for women, and one of the best known women pilots in the world, was killed at Mitchell Field this afternoon.
 Miss Cromwell was flying at an alti- tude of about 1000 feet when the acci- dent happened. She had just completed one loop and was about to make a sec ond when something went wrong with the plane and it crashed to the ground. Miss Cromwell whoe home was in Gin cinnati. was twenty-three years old.
 She established her loop the loop rec ord on May Is last when she executed 199 loops in an hour and twenty min utes. That same afternoon she piloted her airplane over two-mile straighta- way course at the rate of 135 miles an hour
 Military observers who witnessed the flight declared that the girls airplane motor stopped abruptly as she was mak- ing the upward turn of the loooD. Sud denly the machine fell backward into a tail spin and dropped like a plummet or to a road just outside the field.
 Hundreds of spectators gasped with as tonishment as the plane fell. and ther rushed to where it struck the ground. The girls lifeless body was found in the tan-
 
 ed her machine before engaging in hel stunts, army officers said, and had pro nounced it in good condition. R. II. Dehew, manager of the Curtis: field here, tonight issued the following statement relative to Miss Bromwelrs ac cident:
 Miss Bromwelrs own plane was ou of order. She borrowed a Canadian train ing plane, a type which, because of Mis- Bromwell's small stature, she was un suited to stunt.
 T warned her not to attempt to lool 1 it, but she disregarded the instructions In the middle of the second loop tn cushion she sat on fell out and she evi dently slipped out of reach of the control i and was unable to right the plane. Examination of the wreck disclose | all controls to be in working order" 1 Other aviation experts pointed out tha 1 the safety belt in the Canadian plan was higher than in the one which sh ] had been accusomed to use Consequent | ly when she slipped head downward fror
 her seat in the Canadian plane she ar parently was unable to obtain rev lever
