Paris (Correspondence of the As-
sociated Protest—Lieutenant Rene
Fonck, the young French "ace of

in the air when, on May 8, he brought
down six German airplanes in one
day. ills record has never been equal-
led in aviation.
All three engagements w re fought
within two haul-s. in all onck fired
only 56 shots. ,sn average of little,
more than nine bullets for each en- I
emy brought down; an extraordinary
record in view of the fact that aviao,
tors often fire hundreds of rounds
without crippling their opponent.
The. first fight, in which Lieutenant
Fonck brought down three German
machines, lasted only a minute and
a half ,and the .young Frenchman fired
only twenty-two shots.
Although Lieutenant Fonck is oili-
cially credited with bringing down

.French squadron met three German
twosoater airplanes coming toward
them in arrow formation. Signaling
to his companions, Lieutenant i-‘onck
dived at the leading German plane,
arid. with a few shots. sent It down
in flames. Fonck turned to the left
and the second Hun followed in an
effort to attack him from behind, but
the Frenchman made a quick turn
above him and with five shots sent
the second Hun down to death. Ten
seconds had barely elapsed between
the two victories.
The third Hun headed for homo,

parently gave up the chase and turn-

when Fonck rrt‘ade a quick turn, drove
straight at him and sent him down
within a half~mile~of the spot where
his two comrades hit the earth.
This ended the first engagement.
Several German observation bul-
loons had been brought down by
French aviators. Lieutenant ll‘onck
