DOUG DAVIS IS
RACE VICTIM
Noted Air Pilot Falls to
Death at CIeveland;
Turner Is Winner

AIRPORT, Cleveland. Sept. d.
(UP).-Plucky little Doug Davis,
flying in the face of a Fremont
ton of death. crashed and died
last night in the wreckage OF his
speed plane while rounding a Py-
lon in the $4,000 Thompson tro-
ply race.
Flashing past the mangled body
of his fallen competitor, Col. Ros-
coe Turner of Los Angeles, who
had trailed the Atlanta speed pl-
lot for 65 miles of the 100-mile
race, shot across the finish line to
win the trophy and the $4,000
first prize.
The crash occurred behind the
huge grandstand at the National
Air Races. More than $4,000 air
fans who did not know for two
hours that the flier had died IN
the accident, were saddened when
they learned that Doug Davis had
sacrificed his life on the altar OF
speed-for the advancement OF
aviation.
Davis plane, a Weddell-Wil-
liams racer-the same in which
the late Jimmy Weddell set the
worlds landspeed record last
year-was ground into a mass OF
twisted steel by the crash, The
fiier's body was broken and torn;
Both legs were severed. His head
was crushed.
Flying a plane of the same
make, but with a much more pow
erful motor, Turner won with an
average of 24S.129 miles an hour,
some four miles an hour less than
the Thompson trophy record set
bv Major James H. Doolittle IN
1882 at Chicago.
Davis entered the Thompson
trophy race against his better
