Sir Carlirg to Try Again
 Caribou. Me. Sept. 2 P-The plane Sir John Carlnr. which land ed in field in the town Of Wash burn, six miles from here, last night, probably will remain until tomorrow before attempting 10 resume the flight from London, Ontario, to liar Dor Grace, \. r., and thence to Lon don, England.
 Captain Terry Fully and Lieu tenant James Medcalf found ii rain ing when they arose this morning after good sleep at the Vaughan house in this town.
 Fear Fog Blanket
 "We don't mind the rain" said Captain Fully, but it looks as if we would run into the same fog that forced us back yesterday if we tried 10 take off today I figured that we covered about 900 miles in the air yesterday and most of the time we were trying to dodge the fog. We lst'N' ttlpA' It' sG4' 'p!l- UT E'iNpllIl' left and I don't think we'll have to take on any more here. We plan 10 start for Harbor Grace as soon as We can be reasonably sure Of clear weather, but there's no occasion for hurry as we haven't any set sched- ule. As things look now, I think we'll loaf around here until tomor- row"
 Land in Large Field
 Fully and Medcalt were pleased at finding so good d landing place. The plane came down without dif- ticulty in d level field on the farm of Henry Milton. The flyers were too tired to talk when they arrived last night in Caribou, one of the big towns of the Aroostook county po- tato belt, after the ix-mile automo- bile drive from Washburn. Satis- fled that their plane was in perfect shape, they left 1t in the field.
 This morning, refreshed by nights rest and hearty breakfast they were ready to tell of their eX- perlences.
 When we hit the St. Lawrence river valley said Captain Tully, I've ran into heavy fog. To get away from it we decided to leave the river and take a course farther south. This brought us over Maine, We had to fly pretty high to get over Mt. Katahdin and some Of the other mountains.
 "We struck clear weather over Aroostock county and kept on across New Brunswick. As nearly as we could tell, we crossed Prince Ld- ward Island and got 30 or 10 miles ont to sea in the direction of New foundland, but the fog was so dense that we feared we couldn't ma Harbor Grace, where We had planned to land to refuel our plane before starting across the Atlantic'
 "So we turned back. We flew as high as 7,5oO feet trying to get above the fog and then came down close 10 the SlOulll lo S'' 'y~'o'' ~ But we couldn't get away from It until we got nearly to the Ne" Brunswick Maine border.
 second Hop-On Delayed
 St. Johns Quebec, Sept. WE- The monoplane Royal Windsor Will not be able to hop off before i've o'clock this afternoon owing 10 newly discovered damage to the tall skid, the pilots announced at Il o'clock.
 Pilot Schiller went to Montreal shortly before noon to obtaln new parts of the tail skid. He expected to be back here by o'clock ana u was expected it would not require more than an hour to have the plane ready to take the air. There IS plenty of gasoline abonrd to carry the plane to England, Wood said.
 Saw Wing, Smoking
