By MIAMI, Fla., January 7.—One too many inside loops is blamed for the death of Dale (Red) Jackson, 26, St Louis fiyer and co-holder of the un- »ficial endurance refueling fiight rec- ord He fell 3,000 feet apparently unable to extricate himself from a plane, whose wings failed to stand the strain of acrobatics as he stunted above Miami Municipal Airport yesterday on the eve of the fourth annual all-American air race. Holder of the record of 417 aerial bar- rel rolls, Jackson took to the air in an amphibian plane yesterday to practice for competition for the Freddie Lund Cup, donated by the City of Miami for proficiency in aerobatics at the air meet. He looped, Tolled 'and went into an Immelman turn. Then spectators saw him wing into another inside loop. Wing Tears Loose. While the gaze of hundreds was held skyward, & wing of the amphibian tore | loose and spun _toward the ground. An- other wing fell away and the plane hurtled down Jackson's body was found in the pilot’s seat. A finger of his right hand clutchied the ring of his parachute cord.
