With the Bellanca hop-off set for | this morning If weather propitious, excitement ran high across the closely grouped Long Island flying fields all day yester- day. But the high point of the day was when Lindbergh, a blonde young giant, a former air mail pilot, dropped out of the sky after his record-breaking rush acrossthe continent. Made Record Time His time was the quickest ever made, from coast to coast and it was the first time a pilot had flown such a distance alone. Lindbergh's time from San Diego to St. Louls, about 1,600 miles, was 14 hours, § minutes, and from St. Louis to New York, about 950 miles, 7 hours and 15 minutes. The time made h)‘ iLieutenants Kelly and Macready | in their non-stop cross-continent | flight in 1923 was 26 hours, 50/ tion roused by his two great hops across the country that the crowd at Curtiss fleld would not have been greatly surprised to see him fill up his gas tank and start right out for Paris. Several persons ac- tually shouted the question whether he was going on as he climbed from the cockpit of his plane. “No,” Lindbergh replied, taking the question as seriously as it was meant. “I don’t feel just like set- ting off on &’ 35 or $6 hour hop right now.” > He showed no signs of fatigue, however, and had his plane wheeled into position under lights in ahan- gar so that he could go over it. Then he strolled about, chatting with Chamberlin, Bertaud, Byrd and others, and did not retire un- til after midnight. Iindbergh in No Hurry Chamberlin and Bertaud have announced they will not let anyone get ahead of them, but Lindbergh did not indicate he was especially anxious to start ahead of them or even at the same time. It was generally belicved, how- ever, that the take-off of the two planes will be aimost simultaneous, and that both will be launched just as soon as the weather bureau says conditions are good. The special weather report was not recelved by the Bellanca fllers last night until a few minutes after 11. It reported there still were nu- merous squalls in the region which would have to be traversed on the first half of the journey to France. A conference of the Bellanca pilots and their sponsors was called and after half an hour's earnest discus- | sion the decision was reached to postpone the attempt until one o'clock Saturday or the first day | thereafter on which the weather is favorable.

One of the conditions for winning the prize is that application must be made 60 days in advance and a bond posted at that time, This Lindbergh did. Chamberlin and Bertaud entered their applications only a few days ago, 80 even if they were success- ful the prize could be awarded them only if the 60 day clause were waived. At the flying flelds it was gen- erally believed that in the eventof a race, cven though the single seater should actually lose, it would be awarded the prize, as being the only one properly entered. Should Lindbergh fail, however, and Chamberlin and Bertaud succeed, all felt confident that the prize| would be awarded the Bellanca. Commander Byrd has made no application for the Orteig prize. His financial \backers announce that this flight will be conducted purcly for scientific reasons and with no hope of prize money.
