MORE ON COLUMBIA
{Continued from Page One]
near Berlin. Searchlights along the
tvray from the border had been turned
on to test them and planes were pre
paring to meet Chamberlin and es
cort him to the city.. No one in Ber
lin believed the fliers would go to any
other city despite their statement that
they would fly until the gasoline gave
out.
ON BOARD MUR ET AN I A. (Sun
day). The Muretania, one day out of
Cherborgh, sighted a monoplane be
lieved to be the Bellanca trans-Atlan
tic flier Columbia, at 3:30 p. m. Green
wich time. The plane bore markings
as made out from the ship, of N A 357
140. It circled the vessel and then
continued eastward.
(Bulletins)
BERLIN, Monday, June 6. (/P)—The
Columbia was sighted at Dortmund at
4: OS this morning headed for Berlin.
Dortmund is 250 miles from Berlin.
PLYMOUTH, Engl., June 5. (yP)—
The Columbia passed over Plymouth
at 9:10 Sunday night flying eastward
at the rate of 100 miles an hour and^
at great height.
BERLIN, June 5. (JP)—The Colum
bia was reported over Cologne Sur
Mer, on the French coast at midnight
heading for the Cologne airdrome. Of
ficials time her to arrival at Berlin at
5 o’clock Monday mornong or 9 o’clock
Sunday night, Pacific Coast time.
LEVINE MADE OUT WILL
NEW YORK, June 5. (/P)—The Bel
! lanca plane Columbia, with Clarence
j Chamberlin as pilot and Charles A.
j Levine, the owi^er, as assistant pilot,
was sighted passing Trepassy Bay
headed out to sea at 6:20 o’clock, New
York time, Saturday. A British
steamer saw the Columbia earlier
about 200 miles north of St. Pierre
Misquelon. The plane was reported
from places on its trip as far as New
foundland, and all said the engine
sounded as if functioning perfectly.
It was not expected any further
word would be heard from the Colum
bia until it passes the Irish coast, un
less is it sighted at sea by one of the
12 ocean steamers along the course it
is following. The plane made a dram
atic get away Saturday morning from
Roosevelt Field at 5:05. As it left the
ground Chamberlin was at the wheel,
and it made a graceful rise before a
crowd of more than 2,000. Levine’s
departure was the big surprise. It
was not known until the actual mo
ment of the takeoff that he was going,
and he had not even told his wife and
two children. He made a will dispos
ing of his §5,000,000 fortune Saturday.
When his wife saw him climb into the
I plane she fainted.
Where the plane was bound not
even Levine and Chamberlin knew
when they set out. Their destination
was Europe and their ambition to
make the longest flight in history of
aviation. They had decided to wait
1 until they reached Ireland to decide
! whether to fly to Berlin or Rome, or
even further. Wind and gasoline were
to be the deciding factors.
