MR. MASE'S ACCIDENT.
INJURIES NOT SERIOUS. DOMINION FLIGHT SHORTLY. Australian and N.Z. Press Association. LONDON. March 11. It is now reported that Mr. Frank Mase, of Auckland, who met with an accident yesterday at Bury St. Edmunds, was not seriously injured. He is progressing favourably. The airman's forced landing was not in the machine in which he proposes to attempt to fly to New Zealand. He hopes to leave England after a short delay. News confirming that given in the cablegram was received in Auckland yesterday by the syndicate which is sponsoring Mr. Mase's projected flight from England to New Zealand in a Simmonds-Spartan aeroplane. The private cablegram added that at the time of the accident Mr. Mase was fiving in a school machine. " The flight, to New Zealand is still to be made," said the message, which was sent by the firm which manufactured the Simmonds-Spar-tan machine. The latest advice, recei\ed before the accident, stated that Mr. Mase would leave not later than March 18. and would follow the Vienna-Karachi-Singa-pore route. The cablegram, however, speaks of a short delay.
