tenth victim, possibly a woman
was aboard.
Six victims were identified. They
were:
Carl v. vickery. Chicago, pilot
Harry Jacobs, Wheeling, w. Va,
mechanic.
Edward schaller. ~. Storm

J. T. Robinson, 81, New York
His parents were believed to live
at the Hotel Ansonia, New York.
Edward M. Fay. Chicago.

Robinson was the son Of Joseph
G.. Robinson, New York city, an
official Of the Travellers Life In
surance company. Schaller was the
son of George J. Schaller, director
of the Federal Reserve Bank of
Chicago.
All the victims. trapped in the
cabin of the ship when it plunged
from a height of $50 feet, were
burned beyond recognition. Schal-
ler's identification was established
by a class ring.
Identification Of the other VIC
Tins, officials feared, might take
days.
They were among thousands OF
weekend visitors at the fair and
may have been from distant parts
of the country. Identification
could not be hoped for until they
were reported missing by relatives
or friends.
Sunday afternoon motorists saw
the huge plane, once owned by
Samuel insult, wabble in the air
and plunge to the ground as q
wing crumpled. Victims not
killed by the crash died when fire
enveloped the torn ship, sending
flames nearly hundred feet into
the air.
Witnesses rushed to the scene
but intense heat prevented rescue.
One woman apparently attempt
ed to leap from the cabin just be-
fore the plane crashed, and arms
of others extended from the
wreckage, reckoning for help, wit
nesses said. John Muller, police
man, saw the crash.

approached as close as I dared to
the flaming !wreckage saw a
mans hand extended from one of
the windows. The fingers opened
and shut rapidly at first but grad
ually stopped moving, and then the
soaring flames reached the hand"
The plane, the Northern Light"
was making its second passenger
flight Of the day. A sudden squall
had blown up a few minutes be-
fore, making Lake Michigan chop
py and rough.
vickery completed the custom
airy 20 minutes fight and came
down into the harbor. A pontoon
touched the surface for a moment
and then Vickery shot the ship
back into the air. A moment later
he attempted second landing.
This time a pontoon dipped deep
into the water, and the ship
lurched.
Attendants at the port said
they heard a ripping sound. At
first they believed a pontoon was
damaged but later decided the
right wing had cracked.
vickery apparently heard the
crack and, fearing a pontoon was
injured, sent the plane back into
the air. He started for the airport
at Glenview, where he probably
thought he could make a safer
landing.
