Balloon Escape Over Porte Maillot Terrifies Crowd in Paris
A captive balloon torn from its mooring during a fierce storm at Prin t anio's Aerodrome Porte Maillot rose violently, dragging its crew and ten passengers upward. Aeronaut Lair and assistant steadied the craft, the balloon belied by a parachute-like restraint, and passengers escaped into a tree with only shock and minor injuries. Mrs Elton displayed calm American grit as the prefect of police orders a full inquiry into the cause.
