squadron from Rockwell Field that will

rived in j'hoenix yesterday afternoon
after a siu-cosh ful flight from the field.
Only one thins marred the day. The
first plane to arrive, a DeHaviland
"lUiKbirri" model, struck an Irriga

fair grounds and turned over, smash

plane's occupants, Iieut. W. C. Gold
borough, pilot, and Liet. R. H. Haslam,
engineering officer, were not injured.
, The other two planes, both Curtiss
Tlispnnns, arrived later in the day
and landed without mishap. The two
other plane of the squadron, a fast
7,aT'cre and a Herman Fokker, failed
in arrive and had not been heard from
nt a late hour. It was supposed th;u
they had got off their course and
landed in some western part of the
state, rather than fly in by night over
strange territory, and are expected to
arrive this morning.
Five Planes Start
Vive planes of three of the latest
and best American models and one
Herman model composed the squadron
which left Rockwell Field about 9

in it were the "Bluebird," a heavy, ana

suit plane.
On account of the difference in
peod. the planes were soon separated,
and each pilot flew his course indu
tKMideritlv. The D. H. "Bluebird" and
the Lal'ere. the fastest of the. planes,
were the first to reach Yuma, doing

The second plane arrived at 6:15,
i.ik.ted by Lieut. J. T. Lawson. with
Sergeant Rumley as passenger. Lighter
ind slower than the DeHaviland, it
inded perfectly. It was followed
.vitliin an hour and a half by the other
Curtiss. with I,ieut. Byron Cummlngs
and Cadet Cardiff. The second
"Hisso" also landed perfectly, and its
fliers were met later at the Adams
hotel by Lieutenants Lawson, Haslan,
and Goldborough and H. D. McVay,
chairman of the Luke memorial com
mittee. Sergeant Pilot Nassamer and
Sergeant Mason of the aerial recruit
ing squadron here the last two weeks
had already greeted Lieut. Cummings
and Cadet Cardiff,
Fokker is Lost
The Fokker proved the mystery ship
of the squadron and managed to drop
from sight early in the flight. Ordi
narily a fast ship, other pilots of the
squadron had noted that it seemed
to be making poor time, and Its where
abouts last night was a mystery. Ef
forts to find some trace of the Fokk'i
and the missin LaPere at Yuma and
other points last night were unavail
ing, at least fourteen reports being
heard from Yuma.
Both planes are expected to arrive
here today, or at least to be heard
from. The Fokker Is piloted by Lieut,
L. A. Dayton.
While the squadron from Rockwell
Field was in flight here for the tourna
ment, both planes which are covering
the state in a recruting campaign
under command of Captain L. E. Ap
pleby were heard from. According to
latest reports, Captain Appleby's plane.
damaged when he landed at Tucson
Wednesday, cannot be repaired in time
to return here for the tournament, as
parts will not be shipped to it from
the field until this morning. The other
plane, piloted by Lieut. R. S. Worth
ington, has been repaired and will
be here for the tournament, according
to a message last night.
May Get More Planes
Captain Appleby will probably return
here this morning by train, white
Lieut, Worthington and Captain E. L.
Darrow, medical officer, are expected
to fly back during the day.
With at least two planes scheduled
to take part in the tournament out of
commission, an effort is being made to
get some more planes from the field.
A DeHaviland to take the place of the
one smashed yesterday is expected o
srrive in time for the tournament. Ac
cording to plans at least seven planes
will be gathered here to honor Frank
Luke and the other Maricopa county
boys who gave their lives in the war.

soldier sons and will launch a huge
memorial fund to make that tribute
