Ten thousand eyes straining tu pierce the low-luiuging fog over the flying Held at Le Bourget In an effort to get a glimpse of Ruth ISIder and her co-pilot, George Haldeinati In the American Girl since daybreak, grew dimmer and dimmer as the day wore on and no trace of the trans-Atlantic fliers was vir.ible. The morning enthusiasm grew Into uneasiness and then into downright anxiety as the fog failed to rise at noon the earliest time at which the American Girl might have reached here and flying conditions failed to improve. The nervousness of the, 5,000 spectators surrounding Le Bourget Field whero Lindbergh made' hiA historic landing, seemed allayed when It became known that the American. Girl was able to remain in. the air 4S hours. All hope Is not lost, was the comment of many members of the crowd which picnicked on the ground, eating sandwiches and drinking beer and wine. The fail ure of the regular London mall plane to take off for Miiglaml In (he worst visibility conditions for many weeks, however, added to the anxiety of the crowd whose I ears increased when a London passenger plane which atlempte;! to cross the English Channel re turned with (he report that the French coast was absolutely choked with fog. " Flying field officials broadcast a wireless message to the Leviathan, homeward bound with a largo body of American Legion mem bers, the Homeric, the Re de France and other id earners to be on the lookout for the plane. As the bad conditions persisted. Hie crowd recalled the anxious night when Lieutenant-Commander Richard P.. Pyrd was awaited at Le Bourget. Air planes wore groomed fn case news should bo received that the American Girl wan down somewhere on the coast as happened In the case of Com mander Ryrd. A French plane, which took the air to feel out conditions of th upper strata, brought back' little encouragement as far a;; visibility snd general atmospheric condi tions were concerned.
