AERIAL BATTLES
AT ARRAS DEEDS
OF GREAT THRILLS
From a Staff Correspondent of the
Associated Press.
BRITISH HEADQUARTERS IN
FRANCE, April 30. Out of the high
thin air whore the fighting blrdmen
fly in a Bort of dream-world of ad
venture, have come within the last
few days still moro wondrous stories
of dauntless deeds and feats of aerial
tilting to spread the welcome glamor
of romance over tho moro sordid side
of the war. Above tho British lines
and far within the enemy territory,
the blue spring skies havo been filled
with daring planes that Boem to flash
in and out among the hits of floating
cloud with the speed of the very sun
beams that sparkle, and play upon
their silver sides and -all but trans
parent wings.
Virtually all tho visible machines
hear the red, white and bluo mark
ings of the allies. It is seldom that
hostile machines with the maltose
cross upon their spreading wings ven
ture across the fighting lines.
Germans Avoid Air Fights
The British aviators report that it
is difficult just now to get German
aviators into close fighting. They
say that the Germans appear unwil
ling to engage in that sort of warfare !
and continually attempt to break off!
tho combats.
Two fast British machines, far in I
the enemy's domain, saw what ap-
peared to he a great flock of German !
planes headed toward the British
lines. Tho two British airmen climb-
ed a couple of thousand feet to havo ;
a better look at the strangers. They
then saw that it was a formation of j
fourteen machines composed of fight-1
ing scouts and hierver two-seaters,
probably intent upon a bombing raid.
The odds were rather heavy against
them, but the British fliers decided
to have a go at the hostile airmen. !
For three-quarters of an hour there
followed an extraordinary battle. j
Two Against Fourteen i
Having faster and better maneu-
vering machines, the young Britons
played about their fourteen enemies i
like a pair of giant hornets. They !
dived at them, time and time again, j
firing bursts of machine gun bullets j
as they passed.
With superior speed and climb, the "
British machines were able to adopt
such tactics as suited their purpose,
and from the moment of the first at
tack the formation of tho German
machines began to break up.
After two of their machines had
been jet on fire and destroyed and a
third sent spinning down to an un
doubted fatal crash, the hostile
Minadron was completely disorganiz
ed; the surviving machines turning
about and '-making for home.
