Englewood, N. 1.-THE looked for
wedding of Miss Anne Morrow and
Colonel Charles A. Lindbergh mater
ialized unexpectedly Monday the 9th

ments which would have gone even
with moderately simple public we'd
ding.
After the ceremony the colonel and
his bride drove away in an automobile
and the newspaper men who had been
at the gates for so long thought it was
just another afternoon drive. They
were unaware of the wedding until the
ambassador announced 1t through his
secretary more than two hours later.
No details of the couples honey
moon plans were revealed. Arrange
ments for the nuptials had been re-
vised so hastily that change in min
listers was necessary.
Lindbergh wore the same dark blue
business suit in which he appeared on
all OF his visits to Englewood. The
only persons present besides the bridal
couple and the clergyman were Am
bassador and Mrs. Morrow, their
daughters, Elisabeth and Constance;
Mrs. Evangeline Lindbergh, mother of
the f1ier and General and Mrs. Jay
johnson Morrow, brother and sister
in-law of the ambassador.

Fort Worth, Tex.-Having smashed
all sustained flight records, Reginald
L. Robbins and his co-pilot, James Kel-
ly, brought the monoplane Fort Worth
Worth to the ground here, after q
storm battered propeller had started
to shake the engine and plane badly.
The plane had been in the air 172
hours, 80 minutes and one second, al.
most day longer than the army plane
Question Mark, whose record was sur
passed by 81 hours, 81 minutes and 10
seconds.
Robbins and Kelly, by their feat,
eclipsed the best mark for single mo-
tored, dual motored and tri-motored
planes. and lighter than air machines
and all records for crews regardless
of size. An accident which brought
death within inches of Kelly forced
the Fort Worth to earth.
Examination of the propeller showed
that it had been split by some hard
object which denied both blades and
caused cracks to appear. Last night,
during storm, while Kelly was sus-
pended on a precarious perch under
the motor Of the plane greasing the
rockerarms of the value, buckle of
his belt nicked the propeller.
Had the blade. struck him, even q
slight glancing blow, he probably
would have been cut to pieces.
Although the men were tired and
deaf from almost seven and one-half
days of exposure to the roar of a
whirlwind motor they were so happy
they forgot their aching muscles and
long sleepless virgils. The crowd Of
about $4,000, swept all police barriers
and fences aside and almost crushed
the plane before the fiiers could alight

upon after 66 moves. These games were
a form Of queens gambit accepted.
In the second and fourth games the
