PLANE CRASH
NEAR DOVER
KILLS PILOT
Landing Gear Hits REA
Wires AS Columbus Man
Tries Emergency Landing

Charles Upson, 27 of Marion,
Conn. and Columbus, was killed
almost instantly when the airplane
he was flying to Columbus, crashed
on the Bernard Guy farm in Dover
township, about 6:10 pm. Sunday.
DR.. Albert Johnston, Union II
county coroner, said the man suf-
fered multiple fractures of the
skull and broken neck, in addi-
ton to other injuries. A Naval
Reserve card gave his home ad-
dress as Marion, Conn.,, while a
gasoline credit card gave it as
4509 East Way Court, Columbus.
UpSon'S plane crashed to the
ground when its landing gear
struck some Union Rural Electric
Power lines as he was gliding to
an emergency landing after run
ming out of gasoline.
Five Witnesses
The accident was witnessed by
Mr.. Guy, Bernard Butler Luther
SnodgraSS and Pearl and Robert
Drum all of whom reside in the
vicinity. The first three were
walking together near the scene
of the crash, while the two Drum
boys were not far away.
All five got to the wtecked
plane at about the same time and
pulled the craft back into proper
position after it had gone over on
its nose. They said Upson had been
thrown partially out of the plane
by the impact. DR.. Johnston said
the man lived about five minutes.
The witnesses told officials that
they heard the engine on UpSon's
/ plane sputter and finally die al
together after the pilot had at
tempted in vain to gun" it. He
circled the vicinity, and then start
ed glide which would have re-
suited in good landing, they said
had not the planes wheels struck
the power lines.
This threw the plane out of con-
troll and hurled it to the ground
about 100 feet from the Springdale
rd.
Officers Called
Sheriff H. S. RooSa was immed-
lately called, and he in turn mott
fled DR.. Johnston and Civil Aero
nauticS Administration officials in
Columbus. State Highway Patrol
man H. G. Ramsey was also called
to the crash scene.
The ship was new Swift single
engine, 2-passenger, low-wing mon
oplane. The Guy farm on which
the plane fell is located about 5
miles east of Marysville, a half
mile south of the Marysville-Dela
ware rd.
rd.
UpSon had rented the plane
from a flying service operating
out Of FoSter-Lane hanger at
Port Columbus to take his wife
and child to Chicago. He was on
his way back to Columbus and
presently thought it was growing
too dark TO continue on so de-
cided to land.
Although not completely dark,
there was insufficient light for
Upson to see the power lines. A
representative of the firm from
whom Upson rented the plane said
he had not run out of gas, but
was merely cunning" the engine
to keep the plane aloft as he circ-
led the field for the best landing
approach.
Upson's body was brought to the
William II. Faulkner funeral
home.
