Bolling Field, June 13 (AP)—Charles A. Lindbergh hopped off from Bolling Field today for New York in a Curtiss P-1, an army pursuit plane, after his “The Spirit of St. Louis” had developed motor trouble. Hopping off at 8:54 A. M., the conqueror of the Atlantie was accompanied by an escort of twenty-one planes furnished by the army and navy, in one of which rode Commander Richard I. Byrd, the first man to fly across the North Pole and who is 0 planning a trans-Atlantic air voyage. The takeoff was an easy one. Taxi-ing only a hundred feet, Lindbergh nosed his plane almost straight into the air, circled the field until he was over the Potomac and thgn put his plane into a series of stunts.
