planes were expected during the day.
Among those at the field is Charles

Levine himself would be a passenger
on the transcontinental flight. An
other plane is Mrs. James A. Still
mans North Star. purchased for the
abandoned transatlantic fight of
Thea Rasche. German aviatrix. 1t
also was rumored that Mrs. Stillman
