Bomber Falls. Perils Trains Continued from Page 1 that they would immediately launch a probe into the causes of the crash. The scene of the crash is about half a mile from Roosevelt Field and a little more than a mile from Mitchel Field. The railroad trains were not long in getting back on schedule, but for two hours afterward they were forced to stop at every block signal and telephone into Jamaica to make sure the tracks ahead were clear. The plane in coming down had ripped out the wires of the signal system.

The bomber's crew appeared to be not at all shaken up by the crash. Captain Craw was given first aid and then the three stood nonchalantly around the wreckage discussing their narrow escape though they were at an afternoon tea." Plane Breaks in Half Captain Craw, who is 25, is widely known as polo player both on army teams and the Meadow Brook Club at Old Westbury. He is also publicity officer at Mitchel Field. The bomber, a twin-motored biplane, had a wingspread of 90 feet. It broke in half as it hit the ground, the rear into the cockpit and the compartment which had held the motors.

The were thrown clear of the the motors, wreckage. Officials said that whey believed that the fact that the three men were not severely injured or killed was due to the very strong construction of the cockpit. Eleven trains were delayed in all while emergency crews repaired eight pole-lengths of high tension wire. At Mineola the railroad uses both steam and third rail power The high tension wires, ripped by the bomber, fell onto the third rail causing a short circuit which put the signal system out of commission. Automatic block signal service was restored at 11:57, three hours after the crash.

The section east of Floral Park took the longest time to repair. Mrs. Helen J. Elford Special to The Eagle Bloomfield, N. Jan.
