A—16 ARMY SNOWBRDS * FLIHT LIKE EP Squadron Leader Describes Battle With Cold in North- west Country. Associated Press. NEW YORK, February 3.—The flight of the snow birds, the 1st Army Pursuit Group of Selfridge Field, Mich., from Selfridge Field to Spokane, Was back through one of the most severe Northwest Winters on record, was de- scribed yesterday by the leader of the squadron. Sitting in a warm hotel room in New York City, Maj. Ralph Royce shivered as he told of the cold days he and the members of his squadron labored with frozen, balky motors on the windswept prairies of North Dakota and Montana and of the 75-degrees-below-zero tem- perature they encountered as they scaled the Great Divide. Leaving Selfridge Field on January 10 with 18 pursuit ships and 3 trans- port planes the squadron flew through snow and sleet and cold over 3,700 miles of frozen country to land back | 2t Selfridge Fleld 19 days later with all but one pursuit ship and no serious in- Juries to report. One Plane Wrecked. ‘The one missing pursuit ship, the only major casualty of the flight, lay in pleces near a barn at Beaver, N. Dak., where it had crashed as Lieut. E. K. Warburton attempted to make an e'rgergmcy landing in a blinding snow storm. ‘The group was on its way back from Spokane. They left Miles City, Mont., the morning of January 24, bound for Fargo, N. Dak., via Bismarck. They had a weather report promising them 2 1,000-foot ceiling all the way. As they neared the North Dakota border | they ran into a snow storm. “Suddenly, Beach, N. Dak. loomed up ahead and we zoomed up over the buildings, and they weren't very high buildings either, so you know how low we were flying,” said the major. *“I decided it was time to land, so I went down looking for a soft place. I cut my gun and nosed down. I saw a wheat field through the snow and then three fences—I ran through all three | of them. I could hear my flight milling around up there in that terrific storm, occasionally one of them dropping down so close to me I could almost touch the wings. I found my way to a farm house and within an hour we were all gathered together again. All the ships except Warburton's had landed within a mile of me, safely. Warburton was considerably cut about the face, but was not seriously injured. plane was almost completely washed out.” The next morning they were awing again. WARNS OF TAX SALE.
