Billie staged a party that night

FIT. WORTH, Texas, May ga
Texas cowboy and former rail-
road mechanic continued today to-
ward a new worlds record for sus-
tanned fight in an old and recon-
ditioned one -motored Ryan mono
plane, passing their ninety-eighth
hour in the air at 1876 this after
noon.
Air men at Meacham field pre-
dicted that the Fort Worth may
beat the army Question Mark, which
stayed in the air $50 hours.
Reg Robbins, the cowboy, and Jim
Kelley, the mechanic, indicated all
was we'll in the plane.
What seemed to bother Kelly
most was the fact that he was
asleep in the hammock strung with
in the cabin one time when his
bride came up in another plane to
wave encouragement to him. The
two were married six weeks ago and
Kelly was much put out because he
did not get to see the Missus," Rob-
bins said in note.
Kelly Twice Injured
Too, the nap was rudely inter
rupted when Kelly tulnbled out Of
the hammock and bruised a rib.
Kelly also burned his hand while
greasing a rocker arm. He was
dangling under the nose of the soar
ing ship performing this dangerous
task when he showed his hand
against an exhaust pipe, causing the
painful burn.
AS the f1iers passed their eighty
fourth hour III the air last night,
they swooped over Meachand field
and dropped a note which expressed
some concern over the possibility of
fire breaking out during one of the
refueling attempts.
Terrific Strain on Motor
They refused, however, to accept
parachutes which the refueling crew
offered them, indicating their con-
fdence that the fire danger is slight.
The Wright t-Whirlwind motor of
their Ryan plane had $4,000 miles
to its credit before the two men
hoped off last Sunday morning.
The strain on the motor must be
terrific, friends of the two here said,
and the fight is being watched
anxiously, for fear that the engine
will fail.
