Graphic Story Told

San Diego, Cal Jan. 20 CPl-A graphic account of the last moments of the great T. A. T.-MadduX plane which crashed near San Clemente' Cal, was given by Lamar Nelson' pilot Of Western Air Express plane which left Agua Calientc for Los Angeles a. short time ahead Of the T. A. T-MadduX craft
 'I ran into heavy fog q little be. youd Occausidn and turned back. U Nelson said. Then I went inland. trying to get under the fog, but when it closed down I went back to the coast. I thought of following the highway and getting bearings by the automobile headlights. for the cell in. had closed down to about 100 feet.
 "Thcn the MadduX ship went by. apparently following the highway by the lights of the automobiles. thought l would give it four or five minutes 10 get through or come back before starting through myself. waited that time and started after it. had hardly got started when saw q great flash.
 Returned to san Diego
 "I turned to the co-pilot, and said My God, there goes the MadduN Then l turned around and heade,I back to San Diego and lived abou, l 70 years going through the fog unti We struck the clear space around san Diego. We landed at Nortl ! Island"
 Nelson thought it probable tha l the MadduN plane had found th' ! fog closing down, tried 10 turn ant slipped off on one wing too close tt ! the ground to avert crash. Accounts of persons who saw tht i plane during the last few. minutes Of it's flight indicated that the low i cring pail of fog had forced it clos" and closer to the earth. It clcarc' tn" house-tops of Occanside by bu little more than 100 feet. Resident said one of the three motor appar entity was missing, and it mancuvrr rd as if its pilot were seeking th emergency landing field north of tn .toWn.
 Two of the first persons To rcacI the wreck, Lieutenant Virgil West brook. army iicr. and Police Chic Forest Eaton of San Clement, agreed that the plane struck the hill side at an angle and that three 0 the bodies had been thrown clear 0 the wrcckasc. The other 1% wcr piled forward in the steel cabin tha
New Britain herald., 1930-01-20

Eaton said it appeared that in try ing 10 land on slopinS ground the right wing had dipped and hit the hillside, hurling the craft sidewise and break king it apart in the middle.
 When the first rescuers arrived, said Westbrook, they were unable 10 reach any of the-I3 bodies in the burning cabin. IL was a roaring furnace. Metal parts of the plane were red hot
 The wreckage burned for some time and efforts to Qucnch the flames were practically futile,''
 The plane. one Of the latest all metal, tri-motored ships to play tn" T. A. T.-Maddux airways, which earlier in the day had flown to Agua Caliente laden with joyous weekend sghtseers intent upon a quest for pleasure in the lower California re- sore, took off for the return trip to Los Angeles at 5:30 D, m.
 A wrist watch. found on the body of Pilot Russell it's crystal and face smashed, had stopped at 6:29 o'clock. Russell's body, hands still clutching the steering wheel. was found buried beneath the forward motor.
 Saw Craft Circling
 Robert Hansen of San Clements. another witness. said he saw the plane circling in an apparent cffo't i to make safe landing, and q foN minutes later he heard the crash.
 The motors were missing and the pilot appeared to be in troubla.' | Hansen said. When I reached ,he scene after the crash, the last shreds O. inflammable material were burnrd away. and the metal frame WIS glowing hot. I could sec about d dozen bodies huddled in the passcn- | ger compartment. All Of their clot,l- | ing had been burned away, and ] ain sure all were dead when l reached | the spot"
 Colonel Charles A. Lindberch, an official of the T. A. T.-MadduX Az Lines, was in San Diego and Was notified of the tragedy. He imml- i diately assumed charge Of operations and informed airWays officials in Agnua Calientc, San Diego and Los Angeles of the crash. He did not 70 10 the scene, stating that nothing could be accomplished by such a move.
 Plans to Seek Cause Colonel Lindbergh said neither h. nor anyone else was in a position 70 say what might have caused the wreck.
 We will make every possible or fort to determine the cause of th,s unfortunate mishap,' Colonel Ljnj- borgh said, and when daylight icCmcs. and a thorough examination O. the Wreckage can be made, it may be possible to learn what occurred,
 Bodies of all 1G dead were in charge of the San Diego county coroner An inquest proba bly, will be held today,

Minister Macdonald resulted in shaping the general organization of the conference. Attention ccntercd on dcyising an organization capable of overcoming the mistakes made ut Geneva in 1927 through weak spots felt to have existed in the or ganization of that barley.
 The general attitude Of the Amer lcan delegation has been through out that all the ground work mak- lns the conference possible was built on free and frank discussion among the most important officials Of each government and that these should continue whenever neces- sary. In this way, the Americans contend, more can be accomplished by direct contact with the chiefs of delegations whose opinions differ than by leaving too much work to the sub. committees.
 Secretary Sumson later joined Foreign Minister Grandi for lunch with Mr. Macdonald.
 First Recent Address
 Return of King George from his country home at Sandringham to meet the naval delegates and the opening address 10 the delegates to the five power ornaments confer cncc tomorrow marks the mon archs first public engagement since recovering from the long and, dan gcrous illness that struck him down more than d year ago.
 His last public utterance was on tho occasion of the opening of the new Tyne bridge at Gateshead in October. 1928. Then on the 10th an nlvcrsary of Armistlce day he stood bareheaded in the wintry winds be- fore the cenotaph in Whitehall and few days later he was ill in Buck ingham palace.
 Since his recovery he has attended thcatcrS and seni-public functions and notable exception during hls retirement at Windsor castle was his reception of the American am bassador, General Charles G. Dawes. upon arrival in England last sum- mer.
 The soverei9n's visit to the houses of parliament to open the arms conference will be his first to Vest minister since his recovery.

SHARKEY To USE

By DAVIS ]. WALSH

NEW YORK, June 6.-That

lacerated Dempsey, the bull, to n
CORY death. will be repeated with,
much fidelity to circumstance and
detail next Thursday night in
the Sharkey-Schmeling title fight
at the Yankee Stadium So to-
day said James j. Johnston, the
man who sees all. hears all and
gets everything.
Sharkey, it seems, is to be Tun-
ney-not SO smart or SO coura-
geouS, according to James, but
for the purposes of this fight
he is and will be Tunney. Schme-
ling, he says, is to be Dempsey
not such a hitter, not as durable
nor as game, but the Dempsey Of
1880, about to take the same
methodical. purposeful and inev-
liable licking that Dempsey TOOK
four years ago.
He says the Schmeling resem.
blance to Dempsey is the great
est curse with which ever a
fighter was beset. He added:
The Washington times., 1930-06-06

"SOme chump told me he
looked like Dempsey and, after
that, his career was almost
ruined. He Immediately started
to weave like Dempsey, without
Dempsey'S weapons that made
the weave so effective. And
what is the result? He weaveS
and, then when he wants to
punch, he has to stand up to
do it,"
And what, then. of sharkey ?
The latter, it seems, is to be
scared into making winning
fight. Anyhow. James says Shar'
key is to make a cautious and
therefore, a good fight; that a
timid Sharkey. in effect. is a
better man than Sharkey. the
swasbuckler. James added:
Hell be afraid Of that
Schmeling right and SO he'll
go out there in a conservative
frame of mind. The result will
be an unimpreSSiVe fight But
what of it? 1t will be q win
ming fight. He simply will re-
peat the performance he put
on with Stribling in Miami
last year."

AM|DON LIKES
HIS CLUBS
CHANCES
BY GARRETT WATERS

There was a broad grin on the
face of Charlie Amidon, manager
of the Mohawk Athletic Club, as
he talked about his team and
the satisfactory showing it has
made in the Capital City League
to date.
According to Amidon his team
is right this year. No weaknesses
as of other seasons when games
were lost here or there because
this player or that one failed to
measure up.
Balance with a do or die
spirit is characteristic of the
MOhawks this year. These
two things are putting them
on a winning scale never
reached in the past.
To have a we'll balanced ball
club is something every sandlot
manager works for and to have
the spirit with it is what makes
that clubs path to champion
ship easier. Amidon is enthusi-
astic over tn fact.
The MohawkS have won their
first three starts in the Capital
City League, defeating the Fox
alls, Skinker Eagles and Wood
men of the World. They lead
the league with possibilities of
showing the way to the end pro-
vided tn players keep their
spirit and hold to their ,alance.
