Kelly and John A. MacReady, the first non-stop flight across the Unit ed btates was completed. ' The' time frem Hempstead, N. Y., to San Diego was 26 hours and 50 minutes .and 48 2-5 seconds. 1 f The grind began Wednesday,. ' at 12:36:53 p. m., eastern standard time. The distance is estimated at between 2,700 and 2,800 miles. " The airmen received a warm greet ing when they were sisghted oven the city a few minutes before they land ed at Rockwell Field. Airplanes from the field and naval planes from Ndfrth Island escorted the two lieutenants to the landing field. Whistles of fac tories and from warships 'in the har bor also joined in the greeting.' '.. Both aviators were in good physical condition when they landed and after being greeted by army officials were taken to the officers' quarters. .', , . Historic .Fighter .... ; The historic flight began at Hemp stead with Kelly in the pit The T-2 cleared the hangars at the t end of the flying field by inches, nosed up for elevation and turned its nose towards Rockwell Field. It did .not stop an inch short of its goal. Spectators at the take-off were held in horrid suspense for a moment, when it appeared that the huge plane would not rise in time to clean the building at the end of the field,-It was the second start, Lieutenant Kelly havingturned back after the first attempt, when it was apparent the T-2 would be unable to clear , the buildihgs. ; Roaring westward , hour ; ? after hour in the supreme, attempt of its historic career, the T-2 was awaited in -every city. town, and . villatre throughout the long line flf, , flight and telepragh. instruments, daring the afternoon and night told of the passing puini. flours ,aua9 ,yi iua tenative,chedule -announced - - " ii An average speed of more than 1-00 miles an hur was" maintained, for. the The aviators were the recipients of tnany congratulatory telegrams, in cluding one from President Hard ing. - ' -v .

It was 'the second attempt of Kelly and MacReady at a transcontinental fliirht without a aton. . havintr been forced down at Indianapolis on their1 way east from San Diego last year. That flight was made in the same plane used today? though a. different engine had been installed. "You have written a new chapter in the ' triumph of" American avia tion, said a telegram from Presi dent Harding, and scores of other congratulatory messages expressed a similar enthusiasm over the accom plishment, r The T-2 landed at Rockwell field according to the official timers, at 26 minutes, 561-4 seconds past o'clock noon, 'Pacific coast time. , L Wild Enthusiasm U There was a wild enthusiasm Rockwell, field when Lieut. MacReady nosed the T-2 down and landed the huge ship with, consummate ease on almost the exact spot where he and Kelly took off in their attempt to fly to New York, November 4, last. . The crowd, thrilled by the sight of the beautiful . ship and sensing what its feat meant for American prestige in the air, pushed the guards aside like so much chaff and bore down on Kelly and MacReady, madly cheering the record-makers. The two air navigators, their faces splotched with oil and grease - but wreathed jn wide grins, were fairly forced up against the fuselage.' Here they were lifted on the shoulders of admirers, presented with huge ou quets and not let down until the throng had yelled itself hoarse. Major ,Henrjf Arnold, commandant of Rockwell field, and, the officials of the national Aeronautical. asso ciation were caught in the r mad rush of' the spectators.

BUT PLAYED GOOD BALL (Paul Dewitt in Charlotte Observer) In the elimination series at Inde pendence park Wednesday afternoon between Mnoroe and Charlotte High, Monroe's ."eliminator" broke in the eight frame, and though they sent two others, the breaks were against them and Monroe lost in the tenth by a score of 6" to 5. . v This was some first' class exhibiion of baseball, fast : and furious eight innings,, when Westnedge, Monroe's ace, went up tin: the air and had to be taken out. He was relieved by Ten nan t,: but Coach' Bull Hasty thought he was not going like he should and yanked him out after one inning and substituted Stewart. t ; Monroe scored one in the first frame. "Laney, the first man up, got on oyClapp's error. Boyles sac rificed him to second, when Fairley hit a Texas leaguer to center i and f scored Laney, Jhen Clontz fanned, the iex two.. to'solye Westnedge." They could not connect at all. They threatened sev eral times with getting around, but it was not until the seventh frame that they got a man as far as third, and he scored on a passed ball. After the" first -frame Clontz had them eating out of his hand, Monroe not registering a single hit until the sixth when the ; Monroeites got onto him, Laney went out to first, Boyles singled to center; Fairley hit to third, who caught' Boyles at second Fairley then swiped second, West nedge then hit to center scoring Fair ley. Correll with his two sacker to left brought Westnedge to glory, Wiggs then went down third to first. Clontz was hit freely again in the seventh, three hits scoring two more men. Dick Kirkoatriek nulled Clontz and substituted. Lefty Skeen,. who re tired the side. It was in ,the eighth frame that the sad story started and the "eli minator" went completely up in the air. Westnedge lost all control, and 12 started this frame by walks, present ing the first four up with free passes Then Schwartz laid one down third base line, who errored it, and Eddy stole home. A wild pitch scored two other runs. Westnedge was pulled and Terinant went in while the-fans yelled themselves hoarse. Tennant fanned one, walked one and fanned the next 1 i ' . . two, one oi wnom was SKeen, ana that boy came near shedding tears because he could not register. When Stewart wasVput in the fans were wild, with excitement, and the ninth frame looked shaky for Skeen. He fanned the first man Up.

Terrell was hit, by pitcher, then "Prunes" Wilson con nected with his1 only one of the after noon, hitting to Stewart who errored it and Terrell scored by a hair's breadth. Thua ended Monroe's chanc es to participate in the 1922 cham pionship; game. .'

Knett Lit tle, 23, planter, and his bride of three months were burned to death last night when their home, near Ohat chee was destroyed by fire. The-thar red remains were found on bed springs, indicating that their lives were lost as they slept. . 7 ; Neighbors who . discovered ' the blaze after the house was a mass of flames, tossed stones through the win dows into the couple's bedroom . in an effort to arouse the sleeping pair. Efforts of neighbors to awaken the couple, however, proved ' ineffectual, and it was several hours before the ashes had cooled sufficiently to recov er what remained of the bodies. ' JM a Mr. and Mrs. Little were well-known in the community. - Mr. Little was a resident of Gadsden for some time before he married and moved to a farm. The origin of the fire had not "been determined. : ,
