B-14 UNOFFICIAL GLIDER MARKESTABLISHED Absence of Barograph Robs Jack Barstow of New World Record. By the Associated Press. SAN DIEGO, Calif.. May I.—Failure to provide himself with a barograph yesterday robbed Jack Barstow, 24, of a new official world record for sustained flight in a glider after he had soared over point Loma for 15 hours and 13 mintues in a motorless sail plane, ex ceeding all previous glider endurance marks. Barstow’s remarkable performance will stand only as an unofficial record because of rules requiring that a baro v graph be installed in aircraft in order to gain official acceptance of new rec ords. The young glider expert announced, however, that if wind conditions are fa vorable. he plans to take the air again soon, this time with a barograph and attempt to set a new official mark. Barstow took off at 12:44 p.m, (Paci fic Standard Time) Tuesday in a new Bowls sail plane of 60-foot spread. He landed at 3:57 a.m. (Pacific Standard Time) yesterday, setting his powerless craft down within 500 meters of his point of take off.
