Mc Cook field, holds three altitude rec ords, he deplores the fact that the giving out of his oxygen prevented his reaching his set goal of 40,000 feet. Today the flier, who suffered frozen eyeballs and lids, was showing much lm provement and had been moved to his city home from the post. His face la swathed In Ice bandages and physicians say ho will be normal in a week. Major Schroeder's first altitude record of 28,900 feet was made here Sentember 18, 1918, In a Bristol fighter. On October 4. 1919. he reached 31.000 feet with Lieu tenant Enzy as passenger, In a Lepere, me same macmne as flown Friday ; and on January 18, 1919, in a Loenlng plane took two passengers 21,000 feet In the air, which establishes his three records. Friday's flight reached 36,020 feet After his oxygen gave out, he lost .control of his plane and dropped. It Is estimated. five miles before righting himself. Shock incidental to this Is believed to have suf nclently revived him and he became as he says, "an automaton" when over Wilbur W'right field and seeing Mc Cooks, was able to land. He was lifted unconscous from the plane. The sudden change In air pressure from three points at 36.000 feet to 14.7 at sea level caused his gas tank to col. lapse.
