Jersey City Schoolboy Breaks Goldsborough's Trans-Continental Mark

Edward Schneider, 19-year-old Jersey City school boy, was receiving congratulations today on the new junior transcontinental flight record he established here last night at the completion of a cross-continental airplane dash. Young Schneider completed his flight from Jersey City in 29 hours 41 minutes, flying time when he landed his Cessna cabin plane at the municipal airport here at 7:13 o'clock last night. Flood lights aided the youth in landing. The new record supplants that set by the late Frank Goldsborough last May 4 when he flew from coast to coast in 34 hours, 3 minutes.
