SECOND TRAGEDY IN
TRANS.OCEAN FLIGHT

y
New York, April 26.-LR)-Thc
death of Commander Noel Davis to.
day marked the second tragedy in
the proposed New York to Paris
nonstop flight. The first effort
ended last fall when Captain Rene
Fonck's giant plane was burned at
Roosevelt Field moment after he
had taken off for Paris, causing the
deaths of Charles w. Clavicr, the
radio operator, and Jacob Islamoff,
the mechanic. The famous French
ace himself escaped injury. 1t was
coincident that Commander Davis
was himself an entrant for the flight
last fall, but Cancelled his plans.
Commander Davis had an unusual
and brilliant record in the navy. He
was raised on the plains Of Utah
and in his early school days evidenced
pcnchant for mathematics and
the navy. with the results that
friends induced him to enter the
naval academy at Annapolis. He did
so and was graduated with high
honors. notwithstanding his carly
educational handicaps.
His War Service
He served as aide to Admiral Sims
and Admiral Strauss and when the
United States declared war on Ger
many he went abroad as chief Of
staff to Admiral Strauss in charge
Of mine laying.
He put down a field of mines be-
tween England and Norway which
eventually stopped the German sub
marines from using that path to the
high seas. When the war ended he

He later entered the naval aviation
school at Pensacola and on his grad

Later he took charge of the naval
reserve field at Squantum, Mass,
and was selected by the navy depart
ment to take charge of all naval re-
serve flying.
! Sought Ortcig Prize
| Last March the commander an
nounced that he would hop off from
Mitchell field early in June in all
all-American plane, engines and
crew, in an attempt to capture the
$4,000 prize offered by Raymond
Ortcig. New York hotel man, for u
nonstop flight from New York to
Paris.
His specially-built plane of the
Pathfinder type, developed by the
Keystone Aircraft company of Dris-
tol, Pa. was christened the American
Legion by his wife at Curtiss Field
earlier this month.
