LINDBERGH LANDS AT QUEBEC WITH SERUM FOR FLIER Lone Eagle Makes a Gallant Flight in Blinding Snowstorm Qcebes, Aprils 24. -- Completing a flight of r§re than 50) mis in four Wh _Colinel Charles A. Lindbarga, d mava.ous airmansaip w hm through snow hp storms, landed at 6.50 o'clock tenight on the Plaias of AYraham, Quebec City, with serum to be used in an attempt to save the life of Floyd Bennett, brother knight of the air, who is battling for his lito in Jef- frey Hale Hospital with double pneumonia. Shortly after his arrival at Quebec Lindbergh was rushed by automobile to the hospital. Lindbergh's flight from Curtiss Field, N.Y,, to Quebec City had added a new and thrilling chap- ter to the story of his achieve- ments, including a flight from New York to Paris. Poor Visibility Most of the way to Quebec he flew through snow, over territory that was strange to him, with visi- bility poor--so poor that he could not have distinguished landmarks en route. The plane he flew had a maximum speed of 150 miles an hour, and before leaving he esti- mated his probable speed for the trip at 120 miles an hour. He must have maintained slihtly het- ter than this rate and flown with- out deviation straight to his ob- jective. Lindbergh, however, was mod- esty itself regarding the flight, "We had a very good flight," he told his questioners. Serum Administered ..., Doctor Antonio Cantero, the res- ident doctor of the Jeffery Hale hospital, confirmed this evening that it was intended to use the Hockefeller Institute serum at about 11 o'clock tonight after the preliminary analyses have heen performed regarding Lloyd Ben- nett. A bulletin will then be issu- ed by the hospital, Tt will take a couple of hours to find out through experiment on white mice exactly the nature of the pneu- monia from which Floyd Bennett is suffering. Lindbergh is a guest of the Quebec Government and is being looked after by the Lieutenant Governor, Hon. Niycisse Pero- deau, at Spencerwood. He was given a wonderful ova- tion by the populace on arrival, Lands on Plains of Abraham The flier swooped down on Bat- tlefield Park, Plains of Abraham, making a perfect landing, just be- fore 7 o'clock. Police reinforcements were ont and kept the excited Quebecois in thousands from breaking across the field and preventing the air- man from landing. Colonel Lindbergh covered the motor of his monoplane for the night, and then, while Quebecois of all ages and classes thrilled and shouted themselves hoarse, he walked from the landing field. The crowd stood back ecourteous- ly and allowed him to pass through toward an auto which bore him as quickly as possible to the hospital. At the hospital Lindbergh was allowed to see Bennett for a few minutes and spoke to the sick man. He later went to his hote!, where he had to run the gauntlet of another crowd. Colonel Lindbergh's plans are not kwnown yet. Montreal's Shivery Vigil Montreal, April 24. -- Mayor Camillien Houde and the entire City Council and, a Targe gather- ingg of representative citizens of Montreal tonight gathered at the St. Hubert Aerodrome, where Col- onel Charles Lindbergh was ex- pected to land on his flight to Quebec City with serum to save the life of Floyd Bennett, Howev- er, "Lindy" went right through to the Ancient Capital, and the local welcoming committee's two-hour wait in the snow and sleet went for naught, for word subseanent- ly came that the "Lone Eagle" arrived at Quebec. future FAMOUS CHARING CROSS STATION IS London, April 24. -- Striking changes in that part of London which is most familiar to foreign visitors will be made by a new $50,000,000 Thames bridge and road scheme, which is being con- sidered by the Government and is likely to be adopted. It provides for the removal of Charing Cross Station from its present position on the north side of the Thames: the extension of Waterloo Station to cope with the traffic which now uses Charing Cross Station: construction of a road ard bridee over the Strand and t' ""~~-- from a point near the Nur. Cayell Statue in St. Mar- tin's Lane, to the Waterloo Bridge Road; demolition of the Hunger- ford Bridge and the Charing Cross railway bridge, and the retention of the Waterloo Bridge, widened to permit four lines of traffic.
