UNUSUAL SPECTACLE IN DOVER
Eleven Atroplafes Cross Channel In
Rapid Succession and All Land at
Dover Within Few Minutes Gibert
Wins Channel Trophy.
Ixtndon, July 4. The first half of
the International circuit aviation races
wns MkM at Iteration park aerodrome
in Hendon, Just outside London. An
drew Beaumont, a Frenchman, made
the speediest trip from Paris to Hen
don and was awarded the London
Standard's prize of $12,600. M. Olbert,
another Frenchman, won the Dover
trophy for the fastest passage across
the F.ngllsh channel.
During the morning eleven aviators
flew across the channel and alighted
in Dover as easily as a flock of birds
might have done. One of the eleven,
Renaux, carried a passenger In his
biplane.
A great crowd had surrounded the
landing plac In anticipation of the ar
rival of the aviators. They had but a
short wait before Vedrlnes, consist
ently the leader in the previous stages
of the race, drove his monoplane Into
view, out of a hank of fleecy clouds
that hung low over the channel. He
made a circuit of the aerodrome and
landed gracefully. The flight from
Calais had been accomplished in
about half an hour.
The othev contestants followed in
Qulctl succession. Seven monoplanes
were almost bunched, then came two
blplanai and then another monoplane
brotmht tip the rear. One by one the
machines appeared over the trees,
swept down to the aerodrome, circled
It and landed without a semblance of
a mishap.
There was none of the excitement
that had characterized the finish of
the previom cross-channel flights, nor
were the aviators exhausted. Instead,
they crawled front the aeroplanes and
calmly walked away with friends.
A number of army officers were
deeply Interested spectators In the
flight across the channel. Comments
were freely made as to the possibility,
granting the continued development
of the aeroplane, of landing an Invad
ing force on British territory by their
use.
