The subjects of the debates. sub.

AMP-MIRED
PLANE To BE.
SALVAGED
Craft in Which Behne and
Bernardo Fell 5000 Feet
Held in Mud

Efforts will be made today to
salvage the motor and instruments
of the army plane in which Lieu
tenant T. d. Behne and Sergeant
NJ. A. Bernardo, of Langley Field,
Hampton, Va. plunged 5000 feec
into a marsh near the Benning
power plant yesterday. Both flyers
escaped without injury and today
are stopping at Boiling Field, pend
ing orders to return to Langley
Field.
The plane, en- route from Lang
ley Field to New York, fell when
the motor cut out over the power
plant. Lieutenant Behne attempted
to Volplane to the old race track
but was unable to clear a patch
of trees surrounding the track and
was forced to land in the swamp.
The nose caught in the mud and
the plane turned over, throwing
the sergeant clear of the ship.
Lieutenant Behne freed himself
and the two struggled for an hour
before they were able to reach
dry land below the power plant.
Salvaging work is expected to
take some time, owing to the ex-
treme difficulty of reaching the
mired plane and carrying the
heavy parts to solid ground.
