Croydon Waiting

Croydon, England, Oct. II P- | Captain J. Erot Boyd and Lieuten- ant Harry P. Connor started out to complete today the transatlantic crossing from Harbor Grace, New | foundland, to Croydon, which they | fell just short of making yesterday when their plane, the veteran Gull umbia, made a forced landing on Tresco, Scilly Islands, 29O miles from its goal.
 The two airmen, who left Harbor i Grace, at 11.20 a. m., E. s. T. Thurs day, were brought down, it was un- derstood here, by a choked gasoline main. Landing was at about p. m., or noon eastern standard time. a little more than "A hours after their start.
 The plane. in landing at Tresco, was more than 150 miles off of its course, far to the south of Bantry Bay and that section of the Irish coast which Lieutenant Connor, who was navigator on the exact flight of Roger Q. Williams to Bermuda, had planned to pass over en route to Croydon.
 Plane Not Damaged
 Although the planes landing was forced, and Tresco is a very small island almost at the extremity of the British Isles, the Colum bia, in which Clarence Chamberln and Charles A. Levine crossed the At- lantic to Germany, was not dam- aged. The craft was ready to con- tinue the flight to the airdrome here today.
 Levine, who is in Engalnd, when first hearing of the safety of the two avlators, wired them that he would entrain last night for Corn wall and fly to Tresco, but when he learned of their intention to pro- ceed her today he changed his mind and deSided to await them here.
 First word of the success of the Columbia's second transatlantic ad- venture came from the Coast Guard on St, Marys Island, near Tresco who telegraphed that the plane had landed on a small beach on the neighboring island and that both the fiers and the plane were safe. Motor trouble, their message said, forced the Columbia down short of its goal
 Both Airmen Well
 A message to Levine from the two airmen, said they were well that the monoplane was not dam. aged and that they would proceee today to Croydon. Although tn, , solitary telegraph line to Tresco wa: shut down early in the evening il was re-opened later to permit a few messages to be sent the fliers. Some concern had been felt fol the Columbia up to the time of it. landing although a plane, apparent ly it, had been sighted by the steam CT Virgilia, about 200 miles of Lands End and somewhat off the : shipping lane.
