" A=4 3% GIRL FLYER KILLED; -SPEED RECORD SET Florence Klingensmith’s Ship Crashes—Wedell Flies 305 Miles Per Hour. BY the Associated Press. " (CHICAGO, September 5—Tragedy the close of the international xaces, Florence Klingensmith, pos- of the woman's loop-the-loop air- plane record, was the victim. She was killed while fiying at 200 miles an hour in yesterday's Phillips $10,000 Trophy Tace. The airplane, owned by Arthur Knapp of Jackson, Mich, plunged to earth a half mile from the flying field after the ship's tail was seen to tip as it passed the grandstand, Fabric was seen to rip from the plane. Miss Klingen- smith had completed seven laps for a total distance of about 60 miles of the 100-mile track when the mishap oc- curred. The victim, a resident of Minn€apolis, was 26 years old. She was a member of the National Aeronautical Associa- tion and was known in aviation circles as “Treetops.” She established her ‘woman's loop-the-loop record in Chi- cago in 1931, completing 1,078 loops in 414 nours of fiying. She was the second victim of the four-day events. The other was Roy Liggett, 22-year-old Omaha fiyer, killed Saturday when his plane fell during a test flight. Wedell Sets Record. James R. Wedell, Loulsiana speed pilot, who establishéd an unofficial land plane speed record of more than five miles a minute earlier in the day, was the winner of the race in which Miss Klingensmith lost her life, receiv- ing $3.600 of the $10,000 in awards. Lee Gehlbach of Patterson, La., and Roy Minor of Los Angeles, were seoond and third, respectively, each taking $2,000. | All other contestants—Roscoe Turner of Los Angeles, Leland S. Miles of Los Angeles and S. J. Wittman of Oshkosh, Wis., were forced out of the race. In setting the land record of more than 300 miles per hour, Wedell made four runs over a three kilometer straight-away course. His average for the four laps was 305.33 miles an hour.

CHICAGO, September 5.—Interest was heightened today in the outcome of the James Gordon Bennett balloon race, following the landing of the United States Navy's entry, piloted by Lieut. Comdr. T. G. W. Bettle, last year’s winner, along the shore of Long | Island Sound, approximately 800 miles from the starting point here. Still unreported were the other Amer- ican bag and the Polish entry. Late last night residents of Ottawa, Canads, reported seeing a balloon high over the city, but said it could not be identified as it drifted to the south. Comdr. Settle came down shortly be- fore 11 p.m., Eastern standard time, yesterday, in Hotchkiss Grove, near Branford, Conn. . The bag eased down gently to & clear- ing in the heavily wooded ground and Comdr. Settle and his alde, Lieut. Ken- dall, stepped forth unharmed. Lieut. Kendall remained on guard beside the balloon while Comdr. Bettle went into Branford Center in an auto- mobile, offered by one of the spectators, to telephone word of his safe landing. Comdr, Settle said the trip bad been good and the weather fine. Belgium was definitely eliminated from winning the trophy when the pllots of her entry turned up at Harbor Springs, Mich., and said they had land- ed Sunday aftzrnoon in the sparsely settled region near Rosscommon.

The tragedy occurred during a Labor day air exhibition at Chippewa Lake | Park, 30 miles south of here. | Miss Viola Pincombe, 21, of Berea, ©Ohio, escaped a possibly similar fate by | making a successful parachute jump as part of the exhibition. Following Miss Pincombe’s leap, Wen- #inger sent the plane up to an altitude of about 4,000 feet ana was “stunting” the ship when something went wrong. | The plane went into & spin and dove rapidly. | Versaci plunged out of the craft at a height of 200 feet and fell into Chip- pewa Lake. A moment later, Wensinger jumped with a parachute but was trapped and killed in the crash when the ’chute | snagged on the plane. An accident was responsible for Ver- | saci's presence in the plane. Starting | to leave the Cleveland Air Service Air- port, Miss Pincombe accidentally pulled the rip cord of her parachute as she | climbed into the plane. This partially | released the parachute from its pack. As they were due at the celebration | in a few minutes, Wensinger suggested that Versaci go along and aid Miss Pincombe in jumping so her parachute would not foul the ship. 6,600 GALLONS OF GAS EXPLODED BY COLLISION | By the Associated Press.
