Oct. 10 (R—The vet cran monoplane Columbia pre- sumably was far out to sea to headed for Croydon, England, on its | second eastward crossing of the At- lantic. ! The plane which carried Clarence D. Chamberlin and Charles A. Le- vine from Roosevelt Field to Ger- many in 1927, has as its créw Cap. tain J. Errol Boyd, Canadian war flier, as pilot, and Lieutenant Harry | P. Connor, formerly of the United | States navy, as navigator. They took off from Harbor Grace, Newfoundland, yesterday at 11:20 a. m., (E. 8. T.). At 12:10 p. m., they | | were seen heading out to sea over | St. Johns, N. F., and less than an hour later were sighted 100 miles off the coast by the steamship Qualk- er City. The liner Lancastria report- | cd sighting the plane at 5:40 p. m. about 400 miles due east of Harbor Grace. Fog Over Ocean Dr. James H. Kimball, | bureau meteorologist, said weather | reports indicated the fliers would have following winds for nearly the entire course but that their path would beset by fog and rain squalls. Weather reports from Cobh, Irish Free State, said low-hanging clouds along the Irish coast made local fly- ing conditions precarious. By their calculations the fliers were due to sight the Irish coast shortly daylight. They estimated the trip | | would require 24 hours. The Columbia, which has had a varied career, at one time held the | non-refueling endurance record and | the long-distance fiight record. It is equipped with the same motor and | wooden propeller with which Cham. | berlin and Levine flew to Germany. | It carries no radio. Boyd is Veteran Captain Boyd is a veteran fiier. He was the first Canadian to cnlist in the Royal fiying corps in the World war and was shot down over Hol- land. where he was interned. After the war he returned to Canada and has been engaged in commercial fiy- ing evcr since, spending much time on prospecting and exploration | flights over the north country.

Her first reaction was to have him arrested for assault with a deadly weapon, assault with in- tent to kill, and attempted mur- deér. Nelghbors, much annoyed by the roar of the Sutton shot- gun, had him arrested. Police found shotgun slugs in the wall, but Mrs. Sutton herself was in- tact. ‘When the case against Sutton was called before Magistrate Por- ter yesterday, Mrs. Sutton declin- ed to prosecute. If her husband wanted to shoot her, she said, that was his business. They departed from the court seemingly very happy. The police kept the shotgun. several yeara' experience at sea in the United States navy. Last summer Boyd and Connor with Roger Q. Williams made a non- stop flight from New York to Ber- muda and return in the Columbia. Before the takeoff Captain Boyd expressed his full confidence in Lieu- tenant Connor's ability to direct the plane on a true course by dead reckoning. “This is proved,” he said, “by the fact that on the Bermuda flight, Connor navigated me two hours through heavy rain and low ceiling until, much surprised, I found my- selt over Hamilton harbor. If we had been one mile off our course Wwe would have passed the island un- seen.” Makes Hurried Ttakeoff The fliers made a hurried takeoft vesterday when fog which had held them earth-bound for two weeks cleared. The plane carried 462 gal- lons of gas, the heaviest load ever put aboard a single-motored plane for a transatlantic flight. It took a run nearly the full length of the 4.- 000 foot runway to get it into the air. The start ended a long seriés of delays which thwarted Boyd and Connors for several weeks in their plans for the flight. Soon after their arrival in Canada, Roger Q. Wil- liams attached the plane in legal proceedings to collect money he claimed was owed him by its owner, Charles A. Levine. Then the plane was forced down at Charlottetown, Price Edward Island, by bad weath- er. Boyd and Connor arrived at Har- bor Grace two weeks ago and await- ed for favorable weather. Family Wait Word Tortonto, Oct. 10 (A—A father and mother, a wife and four young daughters of Captain Erroll Boyd today awalited with fortitude and confidence word from Croydon, Eng- land, that the _veteran Lieutenant Harry P. Connor, his companion on a flight from Harbor Grace to England, had completed their dangerous voyage. For most of his 38 years, said Mrs. J. T. Boyd, the flier's mother, Erroll has flown under a “luck slar” which brought him through more than one narrow escape in an Hosiery pilot and | v | torney general to proceed as he had adventurous career. In a bombing raid during the war enemy craft scored a direct hit on Boyd's plane over Zeebrugge, the German naval stronghold. The cyl- |inders of his engine were punctured during the bombardment and one wing showed five bullet holes. He crashed after a dizzy fall from 12 000 feet, but landed just inside the Holland border and tumbled from his plane unhurt. Was Commercial Flier Two years ago, as a commercial flier, he cracked up on a New York fleld soon after a takeoff, and his ship fell three hundred feét. Veteran pilots who hurriéd t6 his assistance were amazed when he crawléd out |of the wréckage without a scratch. Séme time before that, while he |was carrying payroll funds by air in Mexico for an American com- |pany, he was attacked by band'ts |from the air and from the ground. His ship was riddled with bullets but he reachéd his destination un- harmed. Hé wasn’t always a flier, however. During his career he has been an automobile salesman, manager of a grocery warehouse, a mail and test pilot and opérations manager of an airplane company. It is not generally known that Captain Boyd is a composer. Twelve years ago a New York publishing house sponsored his patriotic song, “For Land and Liber AVERILL APPEALY LEVITT'S VICTORY | 10 HIGHER COURT (Continued From First Page) eral, asking for a reopening of the case, was an entirely new proposi- tion in the matter. It had no bear- ing whatever on the question of | whether the utilities commissioners should be removed from office for | neglest of duty, but rather whether {an individual could allege facts “manifestly untrue” and force the |fling of a complaint against a pub- |lic official with a view to causing | his removal from office, and causing |him to defend such action on alle- gations which were groundless. “In the present instance” said Colonel Averill, “Prof. Levitt filed a motion to dismiss our complaint. In order to move to dismiss, what is claimed in the complaint must be admitted. Prof. Levitt ,then, has admitted that what we claimed in our complaint is true.” Considers Contempt Case Redding, Oct. 10 (P—Prof. Albert Levitt is today considering the in- stitution of contempt proceedings in | the superior court against Deputy Attorney General Ernest L.

FORECLOSURE SUIT ONBLOCK DROPPED Aitachment on Schupack Main Street Property Released Attachments on the Stanley build- ing on Main street, a Hart street residence and an automoblle weré released today in a settlement of a mortgage suit between the defend- ants, Morris Schupack estate, and the plaintiff, Emanuel Richman. The suit was for the foreclosure of a mortgage note of $89,000. It was claimed by the plaintiffs that taxes were not paid but the de- fendants paid the taxes and today papers releasing the property were led. * The suit was considered one of the largest brought in many years. Judge Brown and Judge Yeomans of supreme court signed orders, one to prevent the transfer of stock and another for the appointment of Is- sac Milkowicz as receiver. The original mortgage amounted to $97,000, but it was reduced to $89,000. Attorney Harry Milkowicz acted for the plaintiff and it was necessary for two process servers, Deputy Sheriff Martin H. Horwitz and Constable John Recor, to work several hours to garnishee holdingy of the estate. The plaintiff sued for foreclosure, possession, receiver of rents, defl- ciency judgment and an injunction enjoining Lena and Henry Schupack from transferring any interest they have in the estate.
