Bayles, 31-year-old speed pilot, was, killed Saturday in an effort to break the world's speed record. He had streaked down is a long drive tc start his first lap over the three- kilometer course at Wayne County Airport when the plane roiled over twice in the air, dived into the ground and burst into flames with a violent explosion. Bayles was hurled through a wire fence, his body burned beyond rec- ognition. The engine rolled some 50 feet along the Wabash right-of- way, and burning remnants of the plane were scattered over a wide area. Observers estimated that the ship was traveling well over 300 miles an hour when the crash came. Officials See Crash. The mishap occurred directly in front of timers and newspapermen, fragments of the ship narrowly missing the watchers. There was no chance for the pilot to escape, though even when racing at low altitudes he made it a prac- tice to wear a parachute. He had told friends that in the event of an accident he hoped to zoom suf- ficiently high to make a parachute .

Racing for the mark, Bayles, was compelled to fly lower than 162 feet for the sake of accuracy in tim- ing. Had he been able to right the plane iomentum might have car- ried him to a 1,000-foot altitude and made escape possibe. - Cause of Accident Unknown. The cause of the accident prob- ably never will be known, so com- plete was the destruction of the little monoplane. It is likely, how,- ever', that some portion of the con- trol system gave way, under 'the tremendous strain. He flew a Gee Bee monoplane driven by a Wasp engine, super- charged to give nearly 800 horse- power. A 300-horsepower engine or- dinarily would be considered large for such a diminutive ship. It con-, sisted of very little but the giant engine, abbreviated wings, a closed cockpit and the tail surfaces. Bayles was an experienced racing pilot, particularly in the small plane, field. Last September he won the, Thompson Trophy Race at Cleve- land, America's premier airplanea speed classic. In the summer of 1930 he took second place in the All-Americana Flying Derby, which started and ended in Detroit. Flying a 100- horsepower plane in this race, he1 made a circuit of the West whicht took him over hundreds of miles of hazardous terrain. UNION ASCAIN ELECTS PR ESIDENT P. A.
