Westfield 'Port Pupil 18, To Try At Plane Record. Westfield, New Jersey; July 29, 1930. Eddie Schneider, 18, a Jersey City youth who graduated from Atlantic Air College at Westfield Airport here, will attempt to beat the national junior transcontinental airplane speed records of the late Frank Goldsborough some time next month, Charles R. Dann, Jr., president of Atlantic Air Service, announced yesterday. Last night a syndicate headed by the youth's father completed purchase of a cabin plane in which the trip will be made. Mr. Dann expressed confidence that Eddie would be successful in his try at a new record. Alexander Garofollo, Clark Township farmer's son, will try for a new junior altitude record at Westfield Airport within a few days, Mr. Dann also announced. The National Aeronautical Association has recognized Bob Buck, 16-year-old Elizabethan, as the present record holder with an established mark of 18,457 feet.
