Wed Two Weeks Army Aviator is Killed on Duty
Married but a fortnight ago to Miss LOUISE OWENS, daughter of Major and Mrs. Ray L. Owens of Hamilton Field, Lieutenant J.H. HALL, army air corps reserve, was killed over Queens, NY, Monday, when two army bombers out of Mitchell Field crashed in midair and fell in flames on a street in Bellrose Manor, NY.
The marriage had been solemnized in New York City, and was the culmination of a romance begun at the University of Kansas, when Miss Owens and Hall were students there.
Major and Mrs. Owens immediately left by plane for New York from Hamilton Field when learning of the tragedy, and will assume charge of Lieutenant Hall's funeral arrangements.
