LegiOnaires Deny Truth of
Statement in Baltimore Papers
Regarding Convention

In view of the unfavorable impress
sion created by articles appearing in
Baltimore papers regarding the con-
duct of Legionaires while in Boston
during their recent convention, menu
bers of the local post are attempting
to correct the attitude of people read
ing them.
These articles were in most cases
erroneous, according to Joseph NJ.
Gender, post commander, and other
members who attended the convention.
If true, it would be safe to surmise
that the newly elected governor Of
Michigan and the Mayor Of Detroit
would have refrained from personally
extending the Legion an invitation to
be the guest of Detroit in 1881.
There were 10000 Legionaires in
line of march in a parade lasting
from 10 a. m. to $3.50 p. M, witnessed
by a gathering estimated by Boston
newspapers at from 100000 to e.
100000.
The Chief of Police of Boston exz
pressed to the convention his appre-
citation of the splendid conduct of the
Legionaires and attributed the rowdy-
ism to what he termed gang of
hoodlums, Mr.. Gender stated.

Lawrence Leroy Brady. 20, an
automobile mechanic, is held in
the Marlboro jail on a charge Of
murder. His brother. Herman,

Of $1,000 as a States witness.
Herman's wife, Naomi Hall, 18
years old, was killed in the ex-

baby brother, Samuel, 10 months
old, and her sister, Dorothy. 1

exploded.
The cabin instantly became an
inferno. In it were killed eight
women and six men passengers,
while in the pilots compartment,
their hands and feet on the con-
trolls, Russell and his mate, Fred
walker; died at their posts Of
duty.
The accident was witnessed by
Jack Weston, driver of q Los
Angeles-San Diego bound auto
stage. Weston, accompanied by
H. A. Mattey, a deputy sheriff Of
Barrego, Calf; James Johnston
and J. j. Parrish, Of Los Angeles,
passengers, scrambled through Q
muddy morass, over q half q mile
from the highway, to the wreck.
They pulled the bodies Of two
men and q woman from the
cabin before the fire drove them
back.
Crushed Bodies Found
The bodies Of some Of the pas
sengers had been crushed by the
impact OF the two side motors
which were driven backward by
the fall.
Walkers watch had stopped at
6:25 p. m, probably the exact
minute Of the crash.
Soon after Weston had re-
ported to officers here, Sheriff
Ed Cooper and Coroner Schuyler
Kelley were summoned from San
Diego. .
Cooper detailed an armed
guard at the plane while Kelley
had the bodies removed to the
two oceanSide morgueS and or
ganized an inquest.
A semi-official reconstruction"
of the crash was made early TO-
day by William Van DuSen, q
pilot, member Of the San Diego
board of air control, and con-
Cured in by Sheriff Cooper. Van
DuSen said:
Russell was flying low Ia
order to keep the coast line in
sight. He had seen a heavy
rainstorm in the north and de-
cided he must turn back.
Russell evidently tried to bank
to the left, over the ocean, to
make the turn. AS he banked, q
down-current drove the plane just
far enough earthward for the
left wing-tip to strike the ground
or a little rise. We found the
ruby port light that had been
torn off the left wing tip.
Shock CrumpIed Wing
THE jar crumpled the wing
and hurled the plane to earth
more than 100 feet from the
point of the first impact.
The crumpling of the wing
also opened seams in the gas
tanks, which were carried in the
wing, and that loosed the gaso-
line. which caught fire from the
motors.
THE flares were intact. Hence
we may assume that Russell had
no intention of trying to land.
