FLYER CRASHES TO DEATH
AS CHUTES FAIL TO Open
Numbers of Local People Witnessed
Tragedy that Occurred at
Arcadia, Friday.

While attempting a parachute drop
from an altitude of 5000 feet as a
part of the aerial circus at Carlstrom
field, near Arcadia last Friday, Ser
gent Washburn fell to his death when
both parachutes of his equipment
failed to open.
AS Washburn stepped from the
airplane, the tail of the machine
struck the first of the parachutes,
ripping it so that it would only partly
open.
Several thousand spectators, among
them a considerable number of Pun
ia Gorda people, saw the unfortunate
man struggle vainly with the para
chute cords as he plunged earthward.
According to those who witnessed the
tragedy, only few seconds elapsed
between the time the man stepped
from the plane until he struck the
earth and but a few realized that he
was falling to his death, many be
lieving that his struggle with the
parachutes was "a part of the show"
