LINDY NEARLY TIPS TO AVOID HUGE CROWDS Famous Flyer Narrowly Averts Tragedy as 2,000 People Swarm on Field ° | | | e | | ° | Curtiss Field, N. Y., May 7.—(®) —aAmerica has had many heroes since Colonel Charles A. Lindbergh came back from his epic flight to Paris last summer but the sight of hi jilver-winged plane is still enough of a magnet to send 2,000 people stampeding to surround it. Landing on the field here last night after a hop over to Mitchel Field, he narrowly averted a trag- edy as 2,000 people swarmed out onto the field, in imminent danger from the enisling, blades of his lane’s propeller. sk Motorcycle police charged the crowd and special guards attempted to ring off a clear space for him to land but their efforts were not enough to stop the rush. Two wom- en were knocked down, receiving cuts and bruises which required medical attention. Lindbergh saw the human av-{ alanche coming toward him and swerved his ship after a run of only a few feet, almost causing it to tip; over. Using his wheelbrakes as much as he dared he turned his plane completely around and! shut off the motor without the cus-' tomary idling while it cooled off. He and his Passengers were im- prisoned in the plane’s cabin as the mob milled around, Finally an automobile was forced through and, ducking the hands of those who sought to touch him, he jumped into the car. Policemen stood on the running board, pushing away per- sons who sought to climb on, as motorcycle police cleared a lane to the roads to New York.
