CROYDON AIRPORT, England, June 8.—Disaster overtook Capt. James A. Mollison and his equally famous flying wife today at the outset of their adven- turous attempt to set three new aviation Tecords. Their large plane, carrying a 3-ton load, crashed at the take-off for a flight to New York, whence they planned to fly to Bagdad and then back to Eng- land. Neither of the flyers was hurt. They have performed several brilliant air ex- ploits individually, although this was to have been their first record-breaking trial together. The machine had run about 30 yards when it apparently struck a depression in the field. Its landing gear was torn away, the nose was dented, both pro- pellers were curled up, the lower left ‘wing was broken and both right wings ‘were crumpled. Both Flyers Silent.
