OTHER COMPETITORS

The other Percival Vega Gul. acroplane piloted by D. W. Llewellyn and C. F. Hughesdon had been facing neck and neck with Scott, and when news was received that 'Captain 8. S. Halse, who in his Mew Gult was leading by several hours had crashed near Salisbury, Interest in this duel quickened.

A message from Abercom this morning, however, stated that Lewellyn had. crashed on the shores of Lake Tanganyika. The armen were unhurt, apart from scratches, but the damage to the machine was such as to put it out of the race.

A Johannesburg report states that a slight operation was per- formed on Captain Ha'se last night and he Is progress'ng favourably.
