ONLY TWO KNOWN SAVED FROM
LIST OF FfFTY-Two ABOARD
TRIAL FLIGHT DISASTER
Twenty-one Americans Aboard M
Fatsd Air Machine Preparing For
Transatlantic Attempt; British
General Believed Lest.

Hull, EngIand-America's giant di-
rigible, the zR-2, carrying more than
hfty American and British fliers, ex-
ploded and fell flaming into the river
Humber at 5:45 o'clock Wednesday
afternoon.
so far as known, only two men es-
capped. They floated free of the
doomed air cruiser in parachutes. All
the rest are believed to have been hurl-
ed to death.
The ZR-2 had just returned from
trial trip which lasted all day Tues
day, during which she cruised over
a great part of England and was
blown some distance off her course
by a gale over the North sea. The
British airmen were putting the di-
rigible, purchased by the United States
from England, through her PAGES pre-
urinary to turning her over to the
American crew for flight to Lake.
hurst, n. J.
At 80 p. m. it was reported that
there were six survivors, but that two
Of them were seriously injured.
At 1870 Wednesday the huge ship
appeared over Howden and signaled
that before landing she would make
speed trial. The big crowd wait
ing on the landing field, around the
hangar, cheered and waved as the
airship started northward toward
Hull.
She swung through the air lanes
above the city and above the mouth
Of the Humber at steadily increasing
speed. Watchers below thought all
was going well. The doomed men
aboard, in her control cabins and on
the narrow runways between the mo-
tors, must have had moments warn
ing of the disaster. it is believed. 9th
erwise none would have been able to
get clear for the parachute jump.
Just as the ZR-2 came around in a
great curve high over the housetopS
of Hull, near the mouth of the river,
