ENWABLE RECORD
Flying Career Dates From

Serious Accident.
BY the Associated Press

By the Associated Press
NEW YORK. June 4.-Clarence
Duncan Chamberlin, ?:-year one

ing the World War when he quit the
Iowa State College. where he was
studying electrical engineering, to join
the Army.
Chamberlin was a lieutenant in the
Army Air Service, serving rs an in
structor at several flying fields, and
has remained an aviator since.
Passenger Was Killed.
m the years that followed Chamber
lin. with many hours of commercial
flying added to his time in the air
while in the Army, has had but one
serious accident. 1t happened two
years ago near Hampstead, Long
Island, while the international air races
were being held, and resulte in the
killing of Lawrence Buranelli of New
York, passenger in the plane, and in
injuries to himself that kept him in
active for weeks.
With Bert Acosta, now a member
of the Byrd New York -to-Paris eXpedi-
ton, Chamberlin holds the world S
record for endurance flying. The pair,
in the Bellanca plane Columbia, flew
over and around New York last
month for 51 hours IL minutes and
20 seconds. 1t was estimated that
the distance covered during that time
was $500 miles.
Slightly more than a week after

Chamberlin won another air victory.
While taking off in the Columbia ON
a test flight, part of the landing gear
smashed, but Chamberlin. by skillful
maneuvering, brought the machine to
earth without injury either to him.

slight damage to the plane.
Chamberlin was born at Dennison,
Iowa. His parents still reside there.
They are confident that their boy can
take care of himself in the air, al
though they admit that he has al
ways been something of a daredevil" "

ed off Tientsin tonight. The arrival
of further British French and pos

assuring effect on the foreign commu-
mites of Peking and Tientsin, although
numerous women and children and
much personal property have been sent
to Tientsin and seaside resorts in the
last few days.
This was due principally to official
notification from the British strongly
advising evacuation of women and
children according to plans formulated
last April, when the situation seemed
worse and the Nanking outraGes were
still fresh. Other legations have not
issued similar advice.

The Fengtieners are well equipped,
their morale is excellent, and their
