: HOLDREDGE, Nebraska, July 30-The trip of the Army aviators and their exploration of the strat- osphere was cut short at approx imately 60,OO0 feet, by damaged balloon but the trip ended suc- cessfully after perilous descent on the prairie near here late last Saturday afternoon.
 The trio was aloft ten hours and fifteen minutes when rips appear ed on the upper side of the huge envelope. The men immediately busted themselves in attempting to land their cargo of precious scientific instruments safely.
 Major William E. Kepner said he would not know the scientific results of the exploit until he had checked the instruments.
 First to Jump
 Capt. O. A. Anderson was the first to take to the parachute and Capt. Albert w. Stevens followed but his chute caught in the en- velope that delayed him so long Major Kepner had to wait until the final critical moment to jump himself.
 Anderson was able to free his chute only at an altitude of 250O feet.
 Crowd Gathers
 Although the balloon landed on a farm, a crowd estimated at 5000 quickly gathered by automobiles.
 Ropes were strung around while the balloonists seized axes to pry into the gondola to recover their instruments.
 The balloon and gondola, with the three aviators aboard, went up into the air from Rapid City, South Dokota, last Saturday morn ing.
