Recall Historic Flight They flew on the 30th anniver- sary of the first channel crossing- by air. On July 25, 1909, Louis Bleriot brought his home-made air contraption across the chan- nel in its'hlstorlc flight and land- _ed it on English soil. When they arrived over French tel-r ury, French chasers took to the ii‘ to drive off the “lnvade.rs."

French Air Minister; Guy La Chambre, left Villocoublay by airplane today for London in at- tend ceremonles marking [-212 an- uiversary of B1erIot‘s flight. On his pmgr-am was a conference with the British Air Secretary, Sir Kingsley Wood, and a banquet to. night at which both air chiefs spoke. The British warplanes roared back and forth across the channel in a. steady stream throughout the morning and early afternoon hours. Air Commodore R.

More than 50 combat ships too off from southern England be- tween 8 a. m. and 9 a. m. for un- disclosed points in northern and central France and returned to their base: a few hours later. Five squadrons of Blenheim bombers- about 60 machlnes——crossed the channel between 7:30 and 8:15 a. m. and returned to England be- tween 10 a. m. and 10:45 a. m. The Blenhelms completed a circuit over French terri and the channel in about three ours. Four formations composed of about 60 Wellington bombers left southwestern airports for France between 10 a. m. and 10:46 a. m. for a non-sto flight of between 1,200 and is miles, Two ups of Whitley bombers were sghted over Paris at 10:20 a. m. and an- other group flew over the French capital at l0:40 a. m. A third ap- peared there at 11:40 a. m. ml of 42 Hampden bombers in three groups made up the last contingent leaving Britain and brought the total number of planes participating in the demonstra- tions to 240.
