dor to Brazil. announced today after a

that they had been in the air for SO
hours before they landed at Tourcs. so
miles north of Natal and 4,377 miles
by airline from Monticello Field, Rome
They hold the duration flight record at

1t Is unlikely that they win be credited
with the 50 hour record since the previ-
Gus mark must be bettered by at least

Fog. the Ambassador said, blocked
their attempt to reach Rio Janeiro
which they would have made without
difficulty In the elapsed time. Instead
of landing at Point Genipabu, 10 miles
north of Natal, as reported at first, they
flew so low as to make 1t appear that
they had touched the ground. Then
they continued on In the fog and dark
ness searching for q suitable landing
place Finally they came down on the
wet and sandy beach at Touros, damag-
ing the wheels Of their plane. 1t will
be taken to Natal for repairs. The men
were not hurt.
At times the fog was so dense that
they flew only 80 feet from the ground.
The flyers told the Ambassador that
during their fight from Rome they had
encountered oil kinds of adverse
weather. fog. winds. rain and even hail

their fuel began to run low did they

The French Air Mail Co. placed one
Of its planes at the disposal of the
Italians. Acting on instructions from

and will continue their flight 10 Rio
Janeiro In their own plane when It is
repaired.
Inc AulDaSSAuot was asked II the
airmen would fly to Busnos Aires after
reaching Rio Janeiro. He said 1t was
doubtful since the Italian Chamber of
Commerce of Sac Paulo, Brazil. mad
offered a prize Of 100000 lire ($2S. 0OOl
for flight from Italy to Brasil and
the airmen had made this flight with
the consent OF the italian government.
He thought some other italian plane
might make a direct flight to Argentina

The italian Chamber of Commerce
of Sac Paulo decided to pay the ex-
nenses OF the flight in addition to thu

Marine Band Orchestra
Resumes Local Concerts

"THE PRESIDENTS OWN" has re-
= turned to its headquarters at
Washington Barracks weighed down
with multitudinous press clippings and
laurel wreaths of appreciation. One Of
the most enthusiastic critics encoun-
tered on this recently completed tour
wrote in the New Castle News that
For the past 10 years there has been
a continuous argument as to who won
the war The Marines modestly ac-
cepted credit for the feat, but their
modesty has never been accepted at
100 per cent by the doughboyS and the
gobs. But, though there always will be
some argument as to who won the
war, in the mind of this reviewer there
is no doubt at all as to what branch of
the service has the best band. It's the
Marines"
Another more subtle acknowledge
ment of the fitness of the United States
Marine Band for prime consideration
was sent Capt. Taylor Branson by Will
liam K. Huff, executive director Of the
Philadelphia Forum. He wrote:
Several years ago the Philadelphia
Forum had under its auspices the Phil
adelphia Band, widely known as the
Band of Gold" brass band Of 100
men, conducted by Leopold StokowSki.
This band is no longer in existence, but
we have on hand considerable guam
tity of music which the band used, and
our board of directors directed me 10
as& whether the United States Marine
Band would be interested in having it.
Such of it as you are able to use you
are entirely welcome to-"
Capt. Branson is delighted to find IN
this gift many rare works OF classic
type that prove valuable addition to
the Marines musical library.
The plans of the Marine Band Or
cheStra for the current Winter include
symphony concert once every month
with violin, violoncello or piano con-
certo a feature. Already 1t is hard
at work preparing the program for the
