INVESTIGATION Of ROMA LOSS

"a Dead, Toll of Disaster Being
Greatest i'm History of Amer
ican AerOnautiCS

air service, who came here yesterday by
airplane as soon as word of the disaster
was flashed, made a personal inspection
of the wreck during the night and
ordered an immediate investigation
The possibility has developed that the
inquiry will take notice Of reports that
the bag of the Roma was rotten.
In connection with the Forthcoming
inquiry these Developments, some Of
ficers said, were established definitely;
First-The left rudder Of the Roma
collapsed when she was less than half
a mile from where she went down
Second-There was no fire on the
ship until after the tilt began 20 re-
suit in the right hand side Of the rud-
der going in an almost vertical po-
sition.
Third-The aircraft became un-
manageable a. she swoOped over the
base reservation. narrowly missing a
l50-foot smoke stack at the central
heating plant.
Fourth-The immediate cause Of
the explosion with such force n Go
wreck the entire craft and set her
afire was contact with a network of
220O-volt high power electric wires less
than two hundred feet from where the
Roma crashed into a pile of debris
Fifth-Liberty motors. which were
being tested. were not responsible for
for the disaster unless something more
tangible should be learned than APP
peared today.
The point that the army board will
decide Il. what caused the rudder sup
ports 10 give way?
There were two pilots IN charge ~
the ships steering gears. Both escaped
with their lives, although one was slight
ly injured.
The work Of Identification was e.
tablished bv scars. teeth. and hair. in
some instances but even then there
were four bodies no one was able q
identify.
A morbidly curious crowd milled out
side the undertaking establishment far
into the night. One or two vcntured
inside on one or another prcteNt, but
staggered out gasping for breath few
minutes later There was one man who
stood stoicly BY. never shifting his
position. He was DR.. J. II. Mahry of
Newport News. looking for his brother,
Captain Mabry. Body after body was
identified or sent back for later cE-
animation. The last body brought in
proved 10 ~ that for which he was
waiting.

to the fact that he struck out the first man to face him. That's al- ways bad luck. He did the same thing in the second, whiting Ewald, but Ollie Dan Tucker was some- thing else again. The Pelican fence smasher selected one from down the groove and pasted 1t over the walls in right for circuit clout. Smith followed with a single and Henry with a double, but the Pels were able to get only one run in this frame.
 Taylor started off the Barons' share of the second like 1t might be fruitful. He smashed one of the longest hits even seen at Redwood field to left field, and got only a double out of 1t. The Pelican out field was playing almost against the fence. and Taylor's clout caught the canvas iron roller against the left-field walls on the fly. Beau tiful work by Wetzel, however, held the blow to two bases, and Tommy perished at second
 The Birds didn't tarry long in pil- ing up a lead. In their half of the third they scored a couple more and ran their total up to three. Craft played first in hand with a lusty triple down the groove in left center and Glberts blow to center went for double, scoring Craft. Clarke robbed Knaupp of an extra base hit, but Wetzel dashed out single to left that brought Gilbert home.
 Again in the fifth the heavy ar- tillery< broke loose and the Pelican total read "A" With two gone Ewald crowned one vicious1y to center field and was safe on third before the ball could be retrieved and relayed. Tucker, who had hit on his first time up, and had hden hit by a pitched ball on his second time at the plate, smashed out a timely single through Neun at first and Ewald cantered home.
 Baron's First Tally
 The Barons made their first core of the game in the seventh and saved themselves what had looked like it might terminate in a shut out. Silva was first up in this frame, he hit one to deep short and
