NEW YORK. May 13.-Reports
of adverse weather conditions made
it improbable that any of the pro-
jected New York to Paris flights
would get under way before Sun
day.
Rain, fog and northeasterly head
winds were indicated by the after
noon weather charts.
After studying the charts, Lloyd
Bertaud of the Bellanca monoplane
said he was doubtful as to the pos
sibility of getting away IN the
morning as planned.
Bertrand said that a definite de-
cision would not be made immed-
lately but the prospects were not
good.
Three airplanes, a big one, med
ium sized one, and tiny one, rested
at two adjoining fields on Long Is
land today, waiting to start the
"jinx'' flight across the Atlantic
to Paris, while the search for the
missing Frenchmen. Charles Nun
gesser and Francois Coli, continued
almost hopelessly.
Clarence Chamberlin and LLOYD
Rertaud had expected to leave this
morning in their single motored
Bellanca plane-thc smallest of the
three-but reports of rough weather
in midAtlantic forced them to
postpone it. They hoped to leave
tomorrow. Their hangar is at Cur
tiss Field.
Lindbergh Mum
Captain Charles A. Lindbergh,
Lincoln, Neb., former airmal pilot,
who flew his single motored, one
man plane to Curtiss Field from San
Diego in two days, stopping in st.
Louis on the way to have the ma
chine christened, would not reveal
his plans, but the business like way
he went about the problem of trans
porting his craft across the contin-
cnt led many to believe he would
be ready to start at the first sign
of a take-off by either of his rivals.
His plane is larger than the Bellan-
ca. 1T has wing spread of 46 feet,
anu mlAlHlltiH speed Oh Lou miles
an hour.
Lindbergh, who alone of the three
is eligible for the $4,000 Orteig
prize. so far has escaped unscratch-
ed. In his ability to make his way
across the continent without a trace
of trouble, those who follow signs
and lunches in reporting events saw
an indication of victory for him in
the race for the honor of being the
first to fly without stop from this
city to the French capital.
His IA hours of flying from San
Diego to st. Louis Tuesday night
and Wednesday and the seven hours
at the stick en- route from st. Louis
to New York apparently did not tire
him, but he faces more than 80
hours constant strain on the Paris
flight.
The prospect did not seem to
worry him today, however, as he
went nonchalantly about the task
of tuning up his machine. He said
a couple of sandwiches and some
water in a canteen would be his
equipment for the Journey and he
seemed confident that neither he
nor the plane had suffered from
the long grind,

Love Messages Between

Read as Evidence.
ACTRESS ON STAND

BY DAN CAMPBELL

UNITED Press staff Correspondent
COURTROOM, Los Angeles, May
13.-Emotions that the state claims
drove Paul Kelly TO the "bare
knuckle MURDER of his husband
rival, Ray Raymond, were revealed
for the jury sitting at Kelly's
trial here today through a series of
fcvcrish kilograms introduced as
evidence.
The love messages, punctuated
with terms of fervid endearment,
were exchanged between Raymond 8
wife, Dorothy Mackaye, and Kelly,
while the pair was separated, Kelly
in Hollywood and the auburn haired
actress in San Francisco, Miss
Mackaye admitted from the stand.
Step by step the state built up
tOrtuous trial of discriminating evil
dence testifving to the affections
that the two central figures in the
case held for each other, while Miss
Mackaye sat on the stand and with
trembling hesitant lips confirmed
their love.
Cant phone tonight, letter fol-
lowing. All my love- the actress
messaged Kelly in Hollywood, and
he in turn saidS You may be the
hit there you were here. Love you
and miss you.
In another she said:
"Letter following, don't worry
,-,n Eo -
and he answered, "Of course I'll
wait. | love, love you.
Letter Introduced
The most sensational high light
of the trial was reached at the
morning session with the introduce
tion of letter which the actress
admitted she had received from the
and engaged her husband in ter
rifle combat of bare fists.
The letter written from Los An
geles to Miss Mackaye. in San Fran
cisco read in part:
'When | couldn t speak to you
on the phone your wires took its
place-but since | haven't received

drove me crazy-for of course let
tors never take the place of phone
call-'mountains are made out OF

almost drank myself to death-this
isn't for sympathy dear-just to
show you what a damn fool / am.'
Frequent breaks in the letter
which the district attorneys office
designated as ''code" were inter
preted by Miss Maekaye.
When court recessed at noon Miss
Mackaye was plainly nervous and
on the verge of tears. Throughout
the questioning she frequently re-
sorted to her now famous lines ''I IN
sorry, 1 don't remember
The state brought out that she
visited Kelly's apartment again the
night following the alleged fatal
bout, explaining that she had gone
to the apartment "to call him
down" for coming to her home. She
denied again that she knew Kelly
intended to beat her husband.
In explaining her lapse Of mem
