Approximately five hours behind the British machine the big Dutch air-liner, piloted by K. D. Parmentier and J. J. Moll, is thundering along a different route. In spite of having been lost in the fog for some time, Colonel Roscoe Turner and Clyde Pangborne are flying in third position, about twelve hours behind the leaders. Scott and Black are almost certain to win the race if their luck holds. The race has now developed into a speed test be- tween the British, Dutch and American entries. Only sixteen competitors are now left in the race altogether.

Reports from Singapore state that Scott and Black arrived at 10.23 p.m. (G.M.T.) and departed at 11.03 p.m. flying by way of Kupang, hoping to reach Port Darwin by dawn to-morrow.
