C., flying a 615 horsepower Curtiss, was second with an average speed of 231.363 miles an hour. Lieutenant Tomlinson, in an old Curtiss Hawk, was way behind them all. The third American, Lieutenant Cuddihy, came down with engine trouble. So did Captain Ferrarin, famed Rome-to-Tokyo flyer. Lieutenant Adriano Bacula, 218.006 miles an hour, was third...
