MARTIN STARTS SAYS HE'LL
OVERTAKE OTHER FLIERS
Aviator Glenn Martin, three days
behind the schedule of the Chicago
Detroit hydroaeroplane race, started
from Grant Park early today in pur
suit of the other three flyers now in
the endurance contest. At 9 a. m.
Martin alighted in Michigan City
covering the distance at the rate of
a mile a minute.
After a stop of twenty minutes he
set sail for Macatawa Bay. Before
leaving Martin declared he would
overhaul the leaders, all of whom
have suffered accidents, before night.
Beckwith Havens, who has been
in the lead since the start, was forced
to descend to the surface of the lake
near Pentwater and it was reported
that Roy Francis, who has made a
plucky fight in the face of adversi
ties, has overtaken - him. Lifeboats
were sent to Havens' aid, though he
was not believed to be in danger.
Francis made a desperate effort to
catch Havens before the latter start
ed from Macatawa Bay this morn
ing, but failed after spectacular
flight, in which his machine narrow
ly escaped being dashed to pieces.
