the records for duration of
flight and distance without receiving
supplies while aloft. The machine
of Smith and Richter was refueled in
the air during their breaking
flight. When the Frenchmen left the
ground it was estimated that they
had sufficient gasoline to fly for 40
hours. When they landed there was
in the tank sufficient fuel for eight
hours more OF flying.
Storm Changes Plans.
A heavy storm last night forced the
aviators to abandon the 100-kilome
ter course that had been arranged for
them in order to try for the distance
record. They had rounded the course
20 times, breaking the French dis
tance- record. when the storm broke.

D. c. HOSPITAL PATIENT
RARE MALADY VICTIM
Leslie Wanzer Believed Suffering
From "Parkinsonian Syndrone."
by Experts.

rare disease, called "Parkin-
sonian syndrone," according to physi-
clans, is the malady Leslie Wanzer.
young colored Alexandrian, at Gal
inger Hospital. is afflicted with. This
diagnosis was reached after numerous
consultations by experts during the
past few weeks. He was found in
Union Station apparently dazed.
At Gallfnger Hospital, al first, it
was believed that a form of sleeping
sickness was affecting the patient,
but later diagnoses developed that
tremors of the tongue and a set,
rigid expression of the features were
outstanding symptoms of the case.
These indications, coupled with the
fact that pressure of the finger on
the superorbital nerve of the eye
brought a return of consciousness,
finally brought physicians to the de-
cision that the malady is the rare
''Parkinsonian syndrone," which. al
though somewhat similar to sleeping
sickness, antedated it in medical
annals.
