Boy Flyer Hops Again For Columbus.
Stultz Field, Williamsburg, Pennsylvania; August 15, 1930 (International News Service) Eddie Schneider, 18-year-old Jersey City aviator, took off from here for Columbus, Ohio, at 12:30 p.m. today. Schneider, attempting to lower the junior transcontinental flying record set by the late Frank Goldsborough, was forced down here after rain and low clouds had forced him to descend at Huntington and Water Street, Pennsylvania, yesterday. Schneider refueled his 110 horsepower Cessna monoplane here and said he would stop to refuel again at Columbus. Flying conditions west were reported favorable.
Stultz Field, Williamsburg, Pennsylvania; August 15, 1930. (International News Service) Forced down here, for the third time, after a ten mile hop from Water Street, Pennsylvania, where rain and clouds sent his Cessna monoplane to the ground late yesterday. Edward Schneider [sic], 18-year-old Jersey City youth, was planning on to take off westward from here today on an interrupted flight to the Pacific coast. Schneider, who left Westfield airport, New Jersey early yesterday, is attempting to set a new transcontinental flying record. After being forced down here, Schneider was driven into Altoona, west of here, before noon and if possible would resume his flight to Columbus, Ohio. Flying conditions had vastly improved today with rain and low altitude clouds dissipated by fleeting sunshine and winds.

Notes: His legal name was "Eddie Schneider" but some sources incorrectly formalized it to "Edward Schneider". He wrote in Look Out, Lindbergh - Here I Come in 1931: "because people are always asking me, my name is really Eddie: I was christened that way. It isn't very dressy, but it serves the purpose."
