Five Mile Beach weekly journal., 1922-07-14
ANGLESEA


Five Mile Beach two weeks ago is
finding it very hard to get away from
here and now is lying in Anglesea
harbor with a broken propeller. The
plane was going from Philadelphia to
Atlantic City, but engine trouble
forced the aviatoTs to land at West
Wildwood. Last Sunday the necessary
repairs were completed and the two
operators, whose m it has been
impossible to learn, started toward
Atlantic City. They were scarcely in
the air before it was necessary to
make another landing, and they didn't
have much choice about the spot on
which to land. The plane CAM to-
ward the earth, scarcely missing the
peaks of the Anglesea cottages and
finally crashed into a boat belonging
to Captain "Bill' Bowers, which lay at
anchor in the inlet. The "Chich" re-
ceived little damage and the aviators
were unframed. The craft is yellow
in color with red trimming and on the
rear is painted the caricature of a
large black cat with the word WAN
pus' beneath.
