ING, AMERICANFLYERS LEAD IN BATTLE Lafayette Squadron Up Inces santly During the Recent Verdun Offensive Paris, Aug. 24.—Glorious "air plane weather" has given a termen dous impetus to the activity of avia tors on the western battlefield. The Lafayette squadron, composed of Americans, has been up incessantty, participating In the recent offensive at Verdun and vying with French aviators in the exciting though dan gerous new game of accompanying the Infantry at extremely low alti tudes and engaging enemy quadril les in machine gun duels. The work of this kind, not only has been offeetive, but it has been with out casualties, except for the In jury to Stephen Bigelow, of Boston, who had a narrow escape when a German bullet crashed through his windshield, splintering glass which grazed him on both cheeks. Another squadron composed of Didier Masson, of Lon Angeles, Cal.; Dudley L. Hill, of Peekskill, N. V.; Robert Soubiran, of New York; Ray Clatlin Bridgeman, of Lake Forest, 111., and Douglas MacMonagle, of San Francisco, yesterday executed a movement over the new French trenches to protect the infantry, the "Liaison" machines tlying so low that "the aviators could hear the guns and the explosions of the big shells leaving the French lines. Flight Marvelous One On returning the Americans de scribed the flight as a marvelous one. since they could plainly see each detail of the raging battle, but also as an uncomfortable one since they were constantly passing through the trajectory of big shells which made the air x "shaky" and which could be felt continuously. Weather prospects are good for the next few days so the members ot the Lafayette squadron expect a con tinuation of the exciting work. An expedition witlj bombing ma j chines led by Adjutant Willis B. j Havlland, of Minneapolis, last nlglit was attacked unsuccessfully by a German squadron. J Walter S. Rheno, of Martha's 1 Vineyard, Mass., who yesterday shot down a German two-seated Albatross, is one of the newest men to join the Lafayette flying corps. He thus earned his sergeant's stripes and a war cross at the outset of his career. It is con sidered a femarkable performance for so young a pilot to get the bet ter of a two-manned machine with out help. Dr. Edmond Gros, of Paris, who was instrumental in organizing the successful Lafayette flying corps with American volunteers, has been appointed a major of the American army in the aviation signal corps. [ Ho will give up his practice for the 1 duration of the war. GERMAN NEWSPAPER QUITS Cedar Rapids, lowa, Aug. 24. The lowa Post, a German language newspaper, suspended publication to day.
