NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

With a record of 1400 miles in 15 hours of flying time, the Harvard Flying Club's new "Travel-Air" biplane reached the Boston airport yesterday from Wichita, Kansas.

According to Maxfield Parrish '29 who piloted the plane together with R. B. Bell '30, vice-president of the Flying Club, the journey was a rough one in which they were delayed by having to follow a low pressure area almost all the way. Flying by day and landing at night, the plane hailed at Jefferson City, Missouri, Buffalo, and Rochester on the way from Wichita to Boston. The greatest delay in their flight came at Jefferson City where two days of in clement weather prevented them from taking off.
