Goodwill" Fliers In

Flight Comes To End

Port of Spain, Trinidad. Dec. ii.
u3y Gable 10 The Associated Negro
Press The Goodwill Flyers. Dr,
Albert l.. Forsythe and &. Alfred
Anderson. crashed here to-day
after circling the field in the take
off for Georgetown, British Guiana
The aviators were unhurt except
for minor cuts and bruises The
plane, Booker T. Washington. was
hopelessly damaged. The trouble
occurred in the air. but II was
skillfully manouvered from the
traffic lane to a backyard, narrow
ly missing a row of bungalows in
Woodbrook. a suburb.
Flight Ended
The flight of the Goodwill Flyer
in an old plane has thus ended
after covering less than 1000
miles of their proposed tour of 13.
665 Miles. Bad luck seemed to
have logged the two daring avia-
tors from the time OF their takeoff
in Atlantic City. Their fret acct
dent occurred off the coast of
South Carolina on the way from
Atlantic City to Miami, + lorida,
when the gas line of their plane
sprang leak. This was quickly
repaired after a skillful landing
and the men proceeded 10 Miami.
From there they flew to Nassau,
thence 20 Havana and Santiago,
Cuba. to Kingston. Jamaica, and to
Port au Prince. Haiti In Port au
Prince. a wasp built a nest In the
plane Indicator and threw off their
calculations.
Brave Effort
After leaving Port au Prince.
engine trouble developed in Rar-
rahona province of the Dominican
Republic and they were forced to
decend near Lake Enriquillo. New
parts obtained by air express from
the United States, caused three
week delay.
nlanc was flown into SantU
Domingo Saturday a week ago and
on Sunday the flyers took off for
San Juan Porto Rico From there
they went to st. Thomas. the
VIRGIN Islands. thence to Antigua,
to Grenada and, finally to Port OF
Spain Trinidad.
In spite of the mishap which
has gro und ed them, they
have made the most notable
gesture in the development OF
aviation among Negroes. Twice,
before the present trip, they flow
across the United States. and
once they made a goodwill trip to
Canada.
